Bonjour
Happy Sunday crafty peeps! Today I have a really fun card share for you! I have recently started learning French, because my sweet baby boy just started French immersion grade one. He already knows so many words, that I'm afraid I won't be able to talk to him anymore! Lol. I thought maybe I will try to to learn French my own way, with crafting! So for my Parisian card I used a super cute stamp from The Paper Nest Dolls.
This is French Girl Avery, I absolutely love this sweet little Parisian Diva! I copic coloured her and die cut her out with a MFT pierced rectangle die. The Eiffel Tower and the Bonjour sentiment is from my creative time. I distressed all the papers with my Tim Holtz distressing tool, they are from Bo Bunny. The heart doily I just picked up at Michaels after Valentines Day, and the flowers are from I am roses So I hope you are inspired to go French with your projects today! If you have any questions about my Copic combos or anything else feel free to message me! Have a wonderful Sunday.

My Whimsical Little World Halloween Release
Hello everyone! I hope you have had a wonderful restful weekend! We have a adorably spooky release at My Whimsical Little World this week! Halloween is not something that I ever really used to get excited about, but now that I have kids and I see how much they love it, I love it too! So let's get started! For my first project I used Home Before Midnight an adorable little fairy girl.
The frame is from Prima, they came out with four shadow box frames, and I am obsesses with them! I copic colored and fussy cut the adorable little fairy girl, then I put her in the frame with some flowers and embellies, it might look complicated but it really wasn't! My next project is a card, for this I used two of the new releases Robbie The Robot and Halloween Fence
I copic coloured and fussy cut the Robbie (he also comes without the candy pail for year round card making!) and the fence, then I created a back round with lots of die cut clouds and a moon.
So last but not least is probably my favourite of the release, because he is just so stinkin cute!
This is Baby Lion, he was so much fun to color! I think this is such a versatile image, perfect for baby's first Halloween cards and scrapbook layouts, and just imagine him on a project life card! I copic colored and fussy cut him out as well, then I just did some very simple layering for the card. Well we have a very exciting week happening over on the My Whimsical Little World Facebook Page! We have a
freebie coming up, and a really fun Halloween challenge, for the chance to Win even more free digi's! Also don't forget to head to the My Whimsical Little World blog to pick up some free cut files Here.
