Bali - part ONE

Finally!

I'm on vacation now, I mean, no more classes until mid-September, and even though we are working on issue #5 of the magazine, I had to show you my pictures from Bali! AT LAST!

So here are a few photos, I'll post more later on this week...I just need some extra time to photoshop them...

Discovering Ubud and its market...

Temples and offerings in Ubud...

Motorbikes in Ubud...

the famous BINTANG beer

Traditional Balinese show with gamelan music

The Hibiscus flower is my favorite flower but now I've got another favorite one : Frangipani flowers or sometimes called Flowers of Plumeria...DIVINE perfume...

 

See you later for more SCRAP stuff and more photos of Bali...

Guess WHAT is BACK!???

aaaaaaaaaah...

my suitcase is BACK!

When I landed in Dublin on Friday, no suitcase. I had to teach without any project (except my layouts which I was smart enough to put in my carry-on luggage), no stamps, no embossing powders, no NOTHING. No clothes, no toothbrush, no shampoo...etc...

but I got it back this morning! yooohooooo!

I will write more about my classes and the great day I had yesterday later!

HUGS to all!

edited post : I just noticed later on after this post that all the back of my suitcase has been CUT with some kind of a blade, making a L shape on several parts of the suitcase. That means, another mean email to Airfrance! grrrrr!

Hambly LOVE banner :)

hey everyone!

A nice wooden banner made for Hambly using a wooden banner from the french boutique la Pause Créative! I bought it last weekend while teaching in Nice and I wanted to scrap it as soon as possible!!! and I used, of course, a stamp from my sweet Miss KCT :D

thank you all for your sweet comments, it's always a pleasure to read all of them :)

Enjoy your weekend! It's supposed to rain in Montpellier this weekend :( ugh.

Back from EA Nice & New layouts!

Hi everyone!

It's been a whiiiiile :D I have been sooooo busy lately with classes and stuff, you have no idea! I am so looking forward to taking a break this summer, to just relax and enjoy doing NOTHING! :D

But this weekend was soooo good, I can't thank all the students enough for their amazing welcome! I LOVED it! :)

Our {entreARTistes} event was a huge success and we would like to thank our friend Karine Bordon for always taking good care of us! :)

And here's a little layout I made a while ago but haven't had a chance to show you... :)

and another one I made last week when I was staying with Karine... using two of my Studio Calico kits..andone AMAZING Karine CT pour Alyssiane stamp! :D

Take care!
