{ ELLE'S STUDIO THURSDAY SKETCH }

Hello scrappy friends! and happy sunday!

just sharing my take on Elle's studio's thursday sketch.
I played with November Magpie club kit and some of Elle's studio products from last summer's collection;



I made a self portrait, inspired by Mindy Gledhill song.








and played with buttons and sprayed inks:

bonjour amis francophones!

voici ma version du sketch du jeudi de Elle's studio.
J'ai utilisé le kit de novembre de Magpie club ainsi que des étiquettes Elle's studio de la collection de l'été dernier.

Et puis hier soir c'était sortie entre amoureux, si rare!!

bon dimanche
Sophie.

{ grace / état de grâce }

we all love recieving kits in our post boxes!
It is like christmas in september!!

But when I got this month's Magpie club main kit I couldn't stop "ahhhhing" and "ohhhing" !!

It is a fabulous kit! the kind of kit you fall in love instantly with!
what??? you haven't got yours??????????? well.. RUN ! NOW!!! go get it!!!


I haven't got much time at hand right now, but I made this layout during the week-end.
title reads: childhood is a state of grace.






Everything on the layout is from the kit!! this tag is just perfection!

Hope you find grace today too!

XOXO
Sophie


bonjour amis francophones!!

lorsque j'ai ouvert mon kit Magpie club de ce mois-ci je suis tombée amoureuse de lui instantanément!!
Tout y est parfait et j'ai immédiatement voulu scrapper ces photos de mes deux coquins! oui l'enfance est un état de grâce et j'espère qu'ils garderont de bons souvenirs de cette période de leurs vies!!

à bientôt

Sophie

{ et la voilà repartie...../ and off she was...}

et oui , la voilà repartie ma princesse, vers l'école, la cantine, les copines et l'apprentissage!
Elle a eu du mal ce matin et moi aussi.
Mais finalement ça c'est plutôt bien passé et elle est partie en tenant la main de sa meilleure amie, pour lui servir d'ancre !
j'espère qu'elle profitera de ce nouveau voyage!! c'est le thème de ma nouvelle page de scrap! faite avec le kit d'août de Magpie club.



oh yes, off she was, off to school after 2 whole months at home.
She was ok and I was too.
Qo proud of her, so surprised to see her there already.
She did hang on to her teddy and to her best friend's hand for courage.
I have my photos for courage!! my camera is my teddy!!

hoping she will enjoy this new journey !

here is a new layout I did on the topic, with august Magpie club kit!





enjoy your journey!! it is only a one way ticket!

profitez de VOTRE voyage! c'est un aller simple!!


XOXOXOXOX

tout est dans les détails , nos vies, nos joies
ce sont les détails qui attirent mon attention et qui rendent ma vie plus riche, plus chère.

it is all in the details, our life , our happiness
I love to be a witness of these details that make our lives richer and dearer.

a soft look
une douceur dans la pause


games in the garden
des jeux au jardin

le rire de ma fille




wild little flowers
des petites fleurs des champs


a good father
un excellent père



familie
la famille

scrapbooking is also the love of everyday treasures and it makes me happy

{so proud!! / tellement fière!! }

I am so proud of who my kiddos have become!! My girl is turning 4 next week and we are having her birthday party tomorrow! she is so excited about having her friends around , and look forward to the cake and pinata! isn't she so lovely??

For this layout i used this amazing Jenny Bowling paper! you can sand it to reveal these beautiful butterflies. And i used this webster's page ribbon i just adore!
It a scraplift of one of Stephany Howell's pages! She is so talented!

AS for my boy , he is now 11months and wants to do exactly what his sister does, which leads to extremely tiring days for me!!
For this layout i was inspired by one of Elle's studio journaling class! Do go and visit their blog as they are hosting inspiring daily classes right now (click on the blinky on the left!!).
I used my new Magpie club august kit : lots of echo park papers! And don't you just love this butterfly?? it is the kind of treasures Tara always includes in her kits!!

We are leaving for Italy on sunday and I am so ready for a week by the beach!! i really need a change of rhythm and scenery!!

Thank you for stopping by! Thank you for your kind comments and..... have a great day!

En français:
bonjour!! voilà mes deux dernières pages sur mes petits bouts dont je suis si fière!! Blandine va bientôt avoir 4 ans !! quelle merveille!
Max me donne du fil à retordre puisqu'il veut faire les mêmes choses que sa soeur!!
J'ai fait cette page sur Max avec mon Kit Magpie club. J'ai utilisé des papiers echo park collection summertime . Je me suis inspirée de la "journaling class" que l'on peut suivre sur le site de ELLE studio!

Pour la page sur Blandine, j'ai utilisé le papier de Jenny Bowling que j'adore, et je l'ai poncé pour faire apparaître ces adorables papillons.
Le ruban webster's page est à tomber par terre, non??

Voilà, demain c'est la fête pour l'anniversaire de Blandine ! je crois que j'ai autant hâte qu'elle!!

Bonne journée et merci de votre visite et de vos adorables commentaires!!
