I finally have a new computer ! I drove dowtown this afternoon and went to my favorite Apple store and bought a MacBook, and I've been having fun looking through it since I got back home with it!

I haven't bought Photoshop yet because it's a little bit too expensive for me for now but i can't wait!

my Mac is beautiful.

Am i the only one in loooooove with a Mac? :D

here's damien and I testing Photo Booth! LOL

i'm going to bed now. talk to you tomorrow.

c

got back from Brazil...

...yesterday evening and I am still on Cloud 9...

Can I say I fell in love with this country, the food, CACHACA, and most of all, the PEOPLE there?

I didn't want to go back so soon and honestly, I even cried when I realized I was there. :)

Everything was so perfect, Brazilians have a sense to make you feel welcome, they made me cry when I thanked them at the end of the classes! :)

I would like to thank Lilian from Scrapnet for being the BEST hostess ever, I have no words to describe how happy I am right now and I'm counting the days til we meet again! Ale, Ana Rita, Lu, Vivi, and all the other girls that took the classes : muito muito muiiiiiiiiiiitooooo OBRIGADO! :)

I'm already living tomorrow for classes this weekend, which will be my last classes until september (phew a break...) but I 'll post pictures on tuesday I think :)

You rock °°°Prima°°°...and bye bye!

Hello everyone!

Today has been such a good, relaxing day... damien and I had lunch with his parents, then we drove to my parents' house and took my mom and Azzia the dog out for a walk, by the sea (I only live 5 mns awy from the Mediterranean Sea), in Villeneuve-lès-Maguelone, it was good to smell the salty air there.

and tonight, I'm going to finish packing my suitcases and clean the house a little bit.

I've been realizing that I'm getting better and better at organizing :) I'm not that GREAT, but I'm getting better :)

Knowing that end of May is going to be super busy (I get back from Brazil n the 21st, and have to drive to Nice, on the Riviera, on the 23rd, and on the 22nd, make about 200 kits for my classes), I made myself a schedule to follow.

And it worked! Within a week, I managed to get THIS WHOLE LIST done :

 

2 layouts for kit #1 from SIStv : OK.
2 layouts for kit #2 from SIStv : OK.
2 American Crafts layouts: OK.
1 100% American Crafts layout : OK.
3 Prima layouts : OK.
interview for the SIStv Ezine : OK.
get all the paperwork done for {EA} Nice and send them : OK.
tutorial for SIStv (written, project done, already pre-posted the whole tutorial on the blog): OK.

Well I have to admit that Damien helped me out a little bit on certain things :)

So, I only have my suitcases to get done now.

I don't think I'll have time to post tomorrow, and to post from Brazil either, but I wanted to show you a layout that I made yesterday, just for fun!

I would also like to THANK YOU ALL for reading my blog, leaving such sweet comments. I get all comments via emails, so I read them all, sorry for not replying to all of them, but please know that I DO read them all, and you are just the best to make my day! THANK YOU!

hugs!

Journal of a New Mom - Scrap in Style TV "The Hipster -Off the Runway" collection

Journal of a New Mom / Journal d'une maman - Scrap in Style TV "The Hipster -Off the Runway" collection, originally uploaded by thegreenfrogstudio.

I'm so happy right now!!!!! My best friend, who I've known for over 15 years; is PREGNANT!!!!! I'm so so so happy! :)
we've been so close, she's like my sister, like my soul mate friendwise, she understands me like no other and she's been extremely precious tomy heart.
She moved in the north of France a couple of years ago, because her husband is in the military, but distance didn't break our friendship, it even grew stronger.
And yesterday evening, she calls me and tells me I'm going to be an Aunt! OMG! we just couldn't stop crying on the phone!!! :D
So I used my most recent SIStv kit, The Hipster, to make her a little journal where she can talk about her pregnancy, write about anything and everything...and she'll be able to read it later.

:)

I'm SO happy right now. :)

BRAZIL, HERE I COME!!! SISTV kit

Brésil, j'arriiiiiive! - Challenge avec Karine CT, originally uploaded by thegreenfrogstudio.

hey everyone!

So you know I'm without any computer yet, using Damien (thank God he has his own!!!) but my dad, who looked at my laptop, told me it was totally OUT. :( So I need to buy a new one. I didn't expect such a big expense for this month but I guess I'll buy a new one when I get back...

but get back from WHERE?!!!

Well, I'm going to BRAZIL on Tuesday!!!!! :D I'm going to teach in Sao Paulo next week and spend some days there and in Ro de Janeiro!!! WHAT A DREAM!!! oh dear...I feel so lucky! :D

So I decided to make this layout for my trip, saying how much I was excited to go!!!!!!

I used the new ScrapinstyleTV "TheTrendsetter - Off the Runway" collection, and added my fvorite Cloud stamp and alpha stickers!!!!

Next week I'll have my first tutorial at SIStv, it'll be online on May 15th! Come and check it out that day!

In the meantime, I'm going to scrap tonight while Damien is playing with his new favorite videogame : GTA IV !!!!! :D

Have a great evening!

My computer crashed!

Don't know what happened! It might be hard for me to check up on my emails these days until my computer is fixed (or not...argh!).
maybe it's time to turn to Apple. :)

see you later!

National Scrapbooking Day is tomorrow! :)

I'll be out most of the day but I think I'm going to play a little and chat on the SIStv board tomorrow!!! We have so much fun stuff in store for you guys for NSD, you'll love it!!!!
Come and join us there!!!!

I have lots of stuff to show you as well, we'll try to show you tomorrow!!!!
I'm feeling a little bit better, I was feeling kinda sick the past couple of days...I guess those are part of WOMEN-STUFF {insert "awwwwww ok.got it." here}.anyway.

I have AMAZING news to share as well but I guess you guys will have to wait a little bit for the BIG news (no I'm not pregnant.) :D

I guess I can actually talk about one of them. My sweet friend and Fashionista Adrienne Looman will be teaching at my {entreARTistes} event in the south of France (montpellier) at the end of October! :D I'm soooooo excited about it!!!!!! we've got amazing plans for this event but I'll let you know more about it soon!

Here are two layouts that I made using the latest Rouge de Garance paperline, called Jin. I simply love the bold and bright colors! :)

I'm going to bed...see you tomorrow!

hugs!
