Sponsor call !

 

Hi there!

In order to offer a better service to my customers and readers, I've been working with the girls over at Freckled Nest. They're going to take care of my ad program from now on.

April sponsor spots are available! For more information about my ad program or to purchase several months with a discount, e-mail admanagers@frecklednest.com.

April is the perfect month to advertise for your company, etsy shop or blogs as I'm going to introduce new categories and tips, which means more blogging!

Vintage Wednesday - FOSSIL, be my friend ^^

Hey there!

Here's a Vintage Wednesday LIVE from Paris! :)

I couldn't manage to prepare this post as I've been soooo busy with getting ready for the Version Scrap show in Paris this weekend but I've been knowing exactly waht I wanted to talk about for a long time! :)

As many of you may know, I'm a HANDBAG addict. I mean, I admit it. I own a dozen...or more...handbags. Maybe 20...25...30...oh well. I stopped counting a while ago.

My favorite brand has gone vintage for a while and I love it : FOSSIL :)

 

Fossil (here Fossil France and there, Fossil USA, where you'll be able to see all the new stuff °sigh°...) has been offering its fans vintage handbags, jewelry and more. And I'm loving it.

I've been lucky to own two of these awesome leather handbags...

Here are a FEW of my favorites from the new collection

Each handbag can be found in different colors and shapes!

This sooo reminds me of Brigitte Bardot and Saint Tropez!

This one could be wore in Deauville :)

White or yellow??? hmmmm...

This brown one is to die for! I've got the perfect shoes to go with it :)

and these are iPad cases...I already have the one below to protect my iPad while I travel.

The BEST thing about Vintage Fossil : their BLOG ! Go check it out! You're going to love it!

Hugs!!

Studio Calico April kit - Singing' in the Rain

The Singin' in the Rain kit is on sale now! Get yours as soon as you can!

I have been loving this kit, probably my favorite from the past months' kits, maybe because I'm craving for Spring and the colors of this kit are just amazing!

I only managed to create 3 layouts but I've already put aside all the products from my kit and addons and I plan on having more fun with these pretties when I get back from Version Scrap in Paris :)

I got myself almost ALL add-ons : Happy Refrain (I couldn't resist more Crate Paper papers and the embellishments), Moses Supposes (Pink Paislee, stamp....awwww so cute...) & Tap Dance (I LOVED the girly look of it).

 

I used some Mr Huey white on the Pink Paislee black chalkboards stickers.

 

I used three different Jenni bowlin inks that I love with my stamp (Chili Powder, Spice Tin, Malted Milk) and my dear Mr Huey White. And for my other layouts, Grey embossing powder, Turquoise embossing powder & Versamark ink to get those nice embosed stamps.

Happy scrapping to all!

Maquillage du jour : bonjour!

Hey there!

Wanted to show you my new hair color and my make up du jour! :)

I wanted some changes hair color wise, I wanted to make red dreads here and there but when I asked my hairdresser about this, she told me it was too much of a pain to get your hair looks good after a couple of weeks and lots of care, so I chose to go with such a soft red color for my hair and no dreads!

For my make up, I wanted to match my grey and purple top so I chose pink and purple for my eyes! :) I have dark brown eyes so I can wear any eye makeup I want:)

Work your purple eye shadow like a smokey, the darkest color on the outside of the eye.

For my skin, I used my Terracotta powder by Guerlain (light skin).

For my eyes, I always, I mean ALWAYS, apply my Prep+Prime base by MAC on my eyes : your makeup stays all day without fading! The BEST purchase I made the last 5 years! :) make up wise, of course :)

Then I applied my dark purple eye shadow (violet aubergine) on the outside of my eyes.

Then I put some pink powder (here, MAC pigments that I am in love with!)on the inside of the eyes.

Don't forget to put some purple and pink at the bottom of your eyes.

Then some mascara by Make Up Forever : I love the Aqua Smokey Lash one, my faovrite.

It took me less than 10 minutes to get ready for the day! how cool is that?! :)

Have a great day!

Let's celebrate my 30th birthday with American Crafts!

Happy St. Patrick's Day and welcome to the American Crafts blog hop! Today is also my 30th birthday so I HAD to make my first layout in my thirties!

30 years old

I'm in love with Peachy Keen line and I couldn't resist using them for this soft but colorful layout :)

I simply cut out the numbers 3 & 0 with a cutting knife and glue paper on the back of my white cardstock :) Just outline the numbers with a black pencil and voilà! :)

Paper (Peachy Keen line); Alpha (Hardcover natural); Cardstock; Stickers (Peachy Keen Remarks booklet); Embellishments (Sunshine Delights).
