Antoinette's Hobbies

I've been wanting to try my hand at a Kawaii-style page for quite a bit now, and the cover of this month's Scrap pour Tous was just the impetus I needed. The bright colours and fun extras make for a great, cheerful, innocent page, full of girlie bits'n'bobs....

Kaly made a great card for us to scraplift for the seventh challenge of the month at Scrap etc. Here's her card: And here's my scraplift: Papers from K&Co, DCWV and Rouge de Garance, stamped image from Kraftin' Kimmie, greeting from Les Elfes. The tissue...

Three cardlifts proposed on Scrap etc, three cards made today. First up, a sketch from Nany: Her own card had cute Hello Kitty images all around the card. The cute factor appealed to me and I decorated my card with Belle la Coccinelle, a gorgeously colourful...

Et oui, je suis taguée ET par Milie ET par Rachel. C'est drôle le tag: il faut montrer sa sixième page faite, et voici la mienne: Une page que j'aime beaucoup, et qui s'est fait en toute simplicité avec des papiers Rouge de Garance, des fleurs Prima et...

Not much opportunity to use girly papers and colours with my gang, but when my colleagues asked me to make a card for one of the guys who has just welcomed his new daughter to the family, how could I resist using Crate Paper's new 'Paper doll' range?...

Well, I think it is anyhow, I love this 'Drucilla' stamp from Kraftin' Kimmie, she's so prettily dressed yet with that mischievous glint in her eye and doing something really not very pretty at all, reminds me of my kids as toddlers when they were about...

I joined in the April 'Scraplift à la chaine' on Scrap etc, and this is the layout I made for it: I'm not too sure about the restult, though, I find it a little dull. It does, however, immortalise my son's desire to establish his identity by growing his...
