"#snapchat" pour 2Crafty

 Hello 2Crafty friends!

I hope you're doing great in these festive times! Today is a bit of a bittersweet one for me: it is going to be my last post for 2Crafty, as I'll be going on a scrapbooking hiatus for the foreseeable future. But nevertheless, I will for sure keep an eye on what team 2Crafty is brewing while I'm away!

"Pop the champagne" pour 2Crafty

 Hello 2Crafty friends!

This week is going to be a big one for me as I'm turning 40! Yay! But it's really the first time that I find it so hard to be reaching a new number. For the first time, I really realize I'm not a young adult anymore. At thirty, I was deep in parenthood, and between my work and my family, I did not see the years go by! Now that my kids are young teenagers, I'm starting to have time for myself again, but it feels like I've skipped from 30 straight to 40.

Anyways, at 40 I feel better than ever before. I have amazing kids, a great husband and friends that are very dear to my heart. So when my birthday comes, I'm going to celebrate and...

"Pop the Champagne"

On the "Heidi's Vines", I used two coats of pearl shimmering paint, then inked the borders in black.

For the "Frame Jenna", I used two coats of black embossing ink.

For the title, made of "Alpha set 1", I applied two coats of gold embossing powder.

I used the following 2Crafty chipboards in this layout:

That's all for me today. I hope you enjoyed my layout and that it gave you inspiration for your own creations! I'll be back in a few weeks, a little older but still as motivated as before! See you soon.

"Dogs have a special way of adding love to every day" pour 2Crafty

Hello 2Crafty friends!

That is it, the crazy pace of every day life is back for our family. Now that the pandemic is mostly under control (fingers crossed), our evening sport activities have resumed and are taking place at an unprecedented rate! 

Our favorite furry friend is usually disappointed when his people leave the house for the evening but we found a way to make him part of all of our evenings. We make sure there's always one of us that goes with him for a long walk or a visit to the dog park while the others are at their activities, and then he tags along for the ride to pick up everyone! His joy and love when he sees us as we get in the car is the perfect way to finish a workout!

"Dogs have a special way of adding love to every day"

On the "Frame Hearth String", I applied a coat of copper foil very roughly. 

On the "Leafy Shrub Set 2" and "Maggie's Swirl", I used two coats of teal-green embossing powder.

For the title, "Dog Saying", I used one coat of copper-and-verdigris embossing enamel.

In this layout, I used the following 2Crafty chipboards:

"Dream" pour 2Crafty

Hello 2Crafty friends!

A few years ago I discovered SUP (Standup Paddleboard) as my new favorite sport, alongside yoga. However, 2 years ago I got an injury that prevented me from doing most sports until late 2020.
But of course here in Quebec we have snow, blistering cold and all sorts of bad weather that makes it impossible to practice SUP outside of the June-September season, so I still had to wait several months after my doctor had given the green light for me to resume sports.
In the last 3 months, I've really been making the most of it, going pretty much every week
and having a real blast!

I've prepared a small video showing the techniques I used to prepare this layout
featuring me doing SUP!

"Dream"

For the "Mini Title Stick Set 3", I simply rubbed a little bit of black ink.

On the "Ava's Frame", I applied green-gold embossing enamel.

 For the "Grass Clumps", I used two coats of green ink and traced the borders with black ink.

For the title, part of "Fine Word set 3", I applied 2 coats of black embossing powder and then applied a bit of red metallic paint on top.
