The Green Frog Studio

Have you pre-ordered your Studio Calico December Daily kit?

Record all of your magical December memories with Ali Edwards and Studio Calico!

This year, we're mixing traditional red, green and gold with a bit of modern aqua, grey and yellow from a variety of manufacturers including Studio Calico, Basic Grey, Crate Paper and Echo Park. We started with an exclusive 6x6 pad of 24 different paper designs, then brought in just the right embellishments - from washi tape to label stickers to veneer, enamel dots and more - to let you finish this 4x6 album in style. It wouldn't be a Studio Calico kit without stamps, and Ali Edwards  has designed a 4x6 set from Technique Tuesday exclusively for this album. 'Tis the season for documenting all the merry, and we can't wait to help you capture every moment. All December Daily kits will ship early November to allow plenty of transit time before the holiday season begins!

The cost per kit is $89.95 and will be billed on 11/1/2012. 

Domestic packages ship FREE.

Standard international shipping rates will apply. Rewards discount will not apply to December Daily purchase.

If you would like to preorder multiple kits, please complete the preorder process separately for each December Daily kit that you’d like to reserve. Each kit will be charged its own shipping fee and cannot be bundled with other orders. For order status updates, refer to your Studio Calico dashboard by clicking on your username in the upper right corner.

Love the size of this album!!!

And have you seen the exclusive Ali Edwards & Technique Tuesday stamps set??? LOVE!

December Daily - Day 24 to 31 - THE GRAND FINALE

Well, maybe my title is a little bit exagerated, but these are my last pages from my December Daily! I made it! I have to admit that I had a big doubt on whether I would finish this project. I tend to DREAM about many fun projects without having time or inspiration to actually finish most of them, but this one? Oh my! It was SO MUCH FUN!

No have-to's, no brain damage thinking about this or that technique, (BIG) photos I love and cherish, and a project that doesn't need a lot of time! Oh this was so great!

This December Daily was like a taste before diving into Project Life. If I had fun with my December Daily, then I was ready for Project Life. (To know more about Project Life, check it out HERE)

So here's my last week of December Daily... A BIG BIG BIG THANK TO ALI EDWARDS for this awesome concept of hers. I LOVE YOU TOO ;)

DECEMBER 24

Christmas' Eve...but also the day I got my Cameo!Santa exists, I tell you! (please, don't pay attention to my crazy 80's kinda-look bangs on that picture, the postman woke me up and I litterally jumped out of bed and ran to the door. Weird face + poney breath = almost dead postman).

Christmas'Eve photoshoots :) LOVE this one.

DECEMBER 25

Merry Christmas! My favorite gift was to wake up next to my man... and my Cameo.

Lunch at grandma's. SERIOUSLY best Christmas meal EVER, thanks to my cousins Jessica and Laurie.

DECEMBER 26

Catching up on DD...

DECEMBER 27

Typical day of work in front of the computer.

DECEMBER 28

The FUNNIEST photo of my DD. Everyday, Elvis needs at least 10 hugs from his mama and papa. No matter where WE are or do.

 

DECEMBER 29

Toothbrush. Pills. Elvis staring at you in the bathtub. Alriiiiiightey then...

DECEMBER 30

Choco's birthday, our friend, who turned 31. A drink and a Trivia game. Are we getting old? Naaaaaah...we're just testing our general culture, of course (inside snort).

DECEMBER 31

NEW YEAR'S EVE! Friends, good food, wine. We spent the whole day cooking, with Damien and Ben. Everyone loved my Risotto and my dessert : pineapple gaspacho with lemon and speculoos cheesecake :)

THE END...and my last page...

December Daily - Day 9 to 14

Good morning!

I'm finally back with some updates on my December Daily! I stopped around December 8th : with my workshops, my trip to Budapest, work and all the holidays preparations, it was difficult for me to catch up.

I finally took a day off to work on my DD. I worked from day 9 to day 23 but today I decided to show you only day 9 to day 14 (gotta keep some suspense you know).

DECEMBER 9th

A full day of scrapping. LOVE.

DECEMBER 10th

A weekend of workshops in Marseille. Great students. My friends from Scraposoleil. And a beautiful sunrise while driving.

DECEMBER 11th

Workshop in Marseille. Cakes. Candies. Laughs. Scrapbook. FUN DAY.

Love those journalling cards.

DECEMBER 12th

I LOVE when Damien cooks. First, because it's good. Second, because I don't have to do it :)

DECEMBER 13th

I left for Budapest, Hungary, with my friend Karine. YAY! 4 days of visits, walking, laughing, eating goulach and starbucks, a lost suitcase, found 24hours later, with missing items :/ sigh.

DECEMBER 14th

Budapest.

Thanks for watching! :)

Make your DREAMS come true

We all have dreams. Some that we can make happen. Some that we just can't. 

But what I always tell my family, my friends, is that you can ALWAYS work hard to make them come true. Sometimes you fail, but most of the times, you succeed. It all needs time, energy, sometimes a tiny bit of money, but there's nothing we can't do.

I believe in those beautiful dreams.

Of course I dream of flying in the outter space and know this won't happen.

But I dream about always being happy, hard worker, succeed in my professionnal and personnal life, I dream about keeping those beautiful and true friendships.

And I do everything I can to make THESE come true.

:)

My dream in 2012 is to be happy, stay joyful, down to earth, loved by my family and friends, and achieve new things in my professional life, in order to achieve things in my personnal life.

What are your dreams for 2012?

Take care!

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful weekend! What have you planned for this weekend?

Feel free to follow me on Pinterest, Facebook & Twitter for more LIVE updates about my December Daily project and other things I've been working on :)

December Daily - Day 1 to 5

Hello everyone!

I finally got started on my December Daily project! I have to say that I went to Paris on Dec.2nd, taught at our {entreARTistes} event there on the 3rd & 4th, but it didn't prevent me from taking lots of photos ( thank God for the iPhone!), enjoying time and company from our students, and heading back home with lots of souvenirs and memories to share! 

Honestly, I was kinda scared to get started on a December Daily project. I was like "This is going to be time consuming and, like many times, you will give up in a sec". Well, NOT! I've rarely ever been THAT inspired, that keen on telling our stories, on sharing our everyday. And what I like to capture is US. The WORLD around US. The ONES WE LOVE.

I've decided to use a lot of photographs in my project because I want to remember those moments through photography. Of course, there is journaling, but doesn't photography capture life the best?

Of course, I want to scrapbook and play with products in this project, but I am afraid that it's going to take me way more time to actually scrapbook, and I want something easy, fast and enjoyeable.

My December Daily will be all about US, throughout this month of December :) 

And so far : I LOVE IT.

So now, here are my pags from Dec 1st to 5th.

DECEMBER 1ST

Celebration of this very first December Daily journal of mine. What do I want to be in the FIRST page? My boyfriend. Our cats. My everyday loves.

DECEMBER 2nd

Flying to Paris.

DECEMBER 3rd

{entreARTistes} PARIS, 2nd edition. A wonderful weekend surrounded by creative women.

DECEMBER 4th

New day of teaching and heading back home.

DECEMBER 5th

Quick "expedition" to go buy our Christmas tree. Driving by the beach to get to Ikea.

Thanks for stopping by and see you again this week for more pages of my December Daily project!

Follow me on Facebook and Twitter for more updates about my DD project!

My very first December Daily

hey there!

I have never committed to December Daily before, but I was so inspired by : 

Studio Calico December Daily kit

Ali Edwards December Daily concept and ART

Marcy Penner's mini book

that I couldn't resist and decided I would do it :)

Here are a few sneaks of my album. More in the upcoming days :)

On the front cover, you can see some cute Mr Berg stamps from Kesiart,embellishments from the Studio Calico. I also sprayed some Mr Huey Shine on the cover, that gives an amazing effect to the grey cardboard, and some ink splashes here and there with Mr Huey White.

I added some embellishments from a kit I purchased from Marcy Penner (LOVE her kits!), for example that little star garland.

I devoted a special space in my studio for my DD. It deserves the best atention ever as it is my first one ever :)

Are you doing a December Daily project too?
