In the meantime, I created a new layout for you guys in order to celebrate this Blog Hop! :)

A few sneaks of my Layout Class in Brazil next month...

Next month, I'm flying to Brazil to teach classes in Rio de Janeiro for Scrap 4 You :)

Here are a few sneaks of my layout class :) We'll be playing with the new Kesiart and Studio Calico products, with inks, Mr Huey and more :)

So, those of you in Brazil coming to my class, we're going to have fun fun fun! Those of you not coming, you're gonna regret it :)

Are you doing A Week in the Life with Ali Edwards this week?

I'm soooo very tempted to do this!

But my problem is organization and time...hmmmmm...I'm sure I can do it :)

Love Yourself - JBS

hello!

Sumer has been quite hectic here in France but the sun is back! with TONS of wind but at least the temperature is getting up again!

I've been playing wiht some of my favorite Jenni Bowlin products these days, just LOVE Jenni Bowlin (the manufacturer AND Jenni herself!).

Pretty uh??? I have to admit that I'm very happy with this layout, especially since I've been back into painting, Mixed Media and stuff. I've been missing being that messy and it feels good to get dirty fingers just when you have fun!

For this layout, I used this paper for the background, these papers for the hearts, this rubon, these chipboards, this button & these stickers :)

For the heart punch and the butterfly dies, these are Stampin Up's :)

For the paints, I only use GOLDEN acrylic paints : here I used my favorite, the Golden Fluid Acrylics on gesso.

By the way, I really need to show you my latest Mixed Media collages :)

In the meantime, need to get back to work! love love!

CHA! CHA! CHA! My favorite part TWO!

Here are three videos filmed on the Studio Calico booth (video made by Two Peas)...and I am loving every single new stuff!
