I made last weekend have all been adopted! So I told the students I would be making more during this weekend. When I'm doing similar things like these, I work in an "assembly line" type of way. I start by choosing my colors and then cutting all the shapes I need. After that, I start sewing the face elements: smaller felt pieces, buttons, embroidery, etc. Then, I sew the big pieces together to make the Kreatures, stuff the shapes with Polyfill and finally, sew them shut. Doing all the sewing by hand takes longer than it would with my sewing machine but I thing it adds to the beauty of these creations.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Les Kréatures Kools (merci pour le nom &lt;a href="http://queen-of-arts.blogspot.com/"&gt;Kim&lt;/a&gt;!!!) que j'ai fait la fin de semaine dernière ont toutes été adoptées! Alors j'ai dit au élèves que j'en ferais d'autre cette fin de semaine-ci. Quand je fais des choses dans ce genre, je travaille dans le style "chaine d'assemblage." Je commence par choisir mes couleurs puis je coupe toutes les formes dont j'ai besoin. Ensuite, je commence à coudre les éléments des visages: petits morceaux de feutrine, boutons, broderie, etc. Puis, je couds les gros morceaux ensemble pour faire les Kréatures, je bourre les formes avec du Polyfill et finalement, je les referme en cousant l'ouverture. Faire toute la couture à la main prend plus de temps qu'avec ma machine à coudre mais je trouve que ça embellit ces créations.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-4603992937852825583?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/4603992937852825583/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=4603992937852825583' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/4603992937852825583'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/4603992937852825583'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/05/being-productive-etre-productive.html' title='Being productive - Être productive'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-S2N3itfmkZU/Td8VFhHpqGI/AAAAAAAAI0U/zqTfy8vqYyM/s72-c/Felt+production+line.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-8147447466218006273</id><published>2011-05-26T08:00:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2011-05-26T08:00:01.788-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='blog news'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='news'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='nouvelles de blogue'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='nouvelles'/><title type='text'>Hard at work - Je travaille fort</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ahrYVuIOnqs/Td3HHtVLWMI/AAAAAAAAI0Q/ClLqFPT4ayA/s1600/DSC_6706.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ahrYVuIOnqs/Td3HHtVLWMI/AAAAAAAAI0Q/ClLqFPT4ayA/s400/DSC_6706.JPG" width="398" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Yesterday, I made a big (for me) decision. After having problems with Blogger twice in less than a week, I've decided to try something different. So I bought my own domain name and will soon be blogging there. I need to set everything up but I will still blog here in the meantime. I'll let you all know as soon as my site will be ready.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Hier, j'ai pris une grosse décision (pour moi.) Après avoir eu des problèmes avec Blogger à deux reprises en moins d'une semaine, j'ai décidé d'essayer quelque chose de différent. Alors j'ai acheté mon propre nom de domaine et je bloguerai à partir de là. Je dois tout mettre en place mais je continuerai à bloguer ici en attendant. Je vous laisserai savoir quand mon site sera prêt.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-8147447466218006273?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/8147447466218006273/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=8147447466218006273' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/8147447466218006273'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/8147447466218006273'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/05/hard-at-work-je-travaille-fort.html' title='Hard at work - Je travaille fort'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ahrYVuIOnqs/Td3HHtVLWMI/AAAAAAAAI0Q/ClLqFPT4ayA/s72-c/DSC_6706.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-6267549510127281244</id><published>2011-05-25T10:00:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-05-25T10:00:06.406-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='carte d&apos;artiste échangeable'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='artist trading card'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='atc'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='zentangle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='drawing'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='dessin'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='caé'/><title type='text'>Zentangle ATC #9 of 9 - CAÉ zentangle #9 de 9</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-K6f8sWSyCJo/Td0IpcQyOHI/AAAAAAAAIz0/0qzBmjcB2YA/s1600/Mosaic+Zentangle+%25239.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-K6f8sWSyCJo/Td0IpcQyOHI/AAAAAAAAIz0/0qzBmjcB2YA/s400/Mosaic+Zentangle+%25239.jpg" width="287" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I finally completed the last ATC in my full page mosaic.

Just looking at it makes me happy! I especially love the beads/sprinkles.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I love the names being suggested in the comments from yesterday's post.

Il est loin d'être parfait mais je l'aime quand même. Juste de le regardes me rend heureuse! J'aime surtout les perles/bonbons.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;J'aime les noms suggérés dans les commentaires de l'article d'hier.

I put a few of my earlier creations in a box as special gifts for my students and they have been really popular so I decided to make a few more, just for them. I wanted the shapes to be simple and I wanted as few details as possible. They are all sewn by hand. I love how they turned out, my favourite being, of course, the feline-like creature. I want to find a name for these types of creatures to call them something other than "felt creatures." If you have any suggestions, feel free to leave them in the comments (who knows, if I like your suggestion, you might get a creature of your own!!!)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;On dirait le titre d'un mauvais film, non?&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Il y a un bout de temps que je n'ai pas fait de &lt;a href="http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/02/pink-owl-hibou-rose.html"&gt;créature en feutrine&lt;/a&gt;. J'ai mis quelques-unes de mes premières créations dans une boite de cadeaux spéciaux pour mes élèves et elles ont été très populaires alors j'ai décidé d'en faire quelques-unes de plus, juste pour eux. Je voulais des formes simples et le moins de détails possibles. Elles sont toutes cousues à la main. J'aime beaucoup ce qu'elles sont devenues, ma préférée étant, bien sûr, la créature à l'air félin. Je veux trouver un nom pour ce genre de créatures pour les nommer autres choses que "créatures en feutrine." Si vous avez des suggestions, n'hésitez pas à les écrire dans les commentaires (qui sait, si j'aime votre suggestion, vous pourriez recevoir votre propre créature!!!)&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-2715235771360147127?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/2715235771360147127/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=2715235771360147127' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/2715235771360147127'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/2715235771360147127'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/05/return-of-felt-creatures-le-retour-des.html' title='The return of the felt creatures - Le retour des créatures en feutrine'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Z1BudLV3_wU/Tdnr2C5latI/AAAAAAAAIzc/DGZxEjlDErw/s72-c/Felt+creatures.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-524107240901836341</id><published>2011-05-20T08:00:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2011-05-20T08:00:15.236-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='postcards'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mandala'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cartes postales'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='doodle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='gribouillage'/><title type='text'>Mandala postcards - Cartes postales mandala</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-T5_LHjnOYeY/TdXeMMVT4DI/AAAAAAAAIy4/HzGCZswTujM/s1600/Mandala+postcards.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-T5_LHjnOYeY/TdXeMMVT4DI/AAAAAAAAIy4/HzGCZswTujM/s400/Mandala+postcards.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Some quick little mandala doodles on postcards for my coworkers.

I simply colored the image with Prismacolor pencils, blended with odorless solvent and added a bit of Gold Liquid Pearl to the middle of the flowers (oops, looks like one of them needs to be fixed before I give the card!) The rest is pretty straight forward. I used papers from Making Memories.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Cette semaine, c'est la Semaine des Services de Gardes. Notre patronne nous donne un petit quelque chose de spécial à chaque jour. Sa patronne (la directrice) lui offrira un cadeau aussi alors je me suis portée volontaire pour faire la carte. Je voulais quelque chose de simple qu'elle apprécierait. Elle aime les fleurs et les images de grenouilles alors cette étampe de Stampin' Up! (&lt;a href="http://www.stampinup.com/ecweb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=111592"&gt;A Flower for All Seasons&lt;/a&gt;) était parfaite pour elle. J'ai simplement coloré l'image avec des crayons Prismacolor, estompés avec du solvant inodore et j'ai ajouté un peu de Liquid Pearl doré au centre des fleurs (oops, il y en a une qui doit être arrangée avant que je donne la carte!) Le reste est assez évident. J'ai pris des papiers de Making Memories.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-5791379918195956726?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/5791379918195956726/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=5791379918195956726' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/5791379918195956726'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/5791379918195956726'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/05/card-for-my-boss-une-carte-pour-ma.html' title='A card for my boss - Une carte pour ma patronne'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KckiUyZPsCk/TdSK2AOQf6I/AAAAAAAAIy0/EPNcF3SDCwY/s72-c/Carte+Suzanne+-+Semaine+des+SDG.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-2792583437028549327</id><published>2011-05-18T08:00:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2011-05-18T08:00:02.146-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mixed media'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='multimédia'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='projet en cours'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='painted background'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='journal artistique'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fonds peints'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='échange'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art journal'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='work in progress'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='swap'/><title type='text'>Journal pages update - Mise à jour des pages de journal</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5Kxmsfu3mOg/TdNRo2wp9PI/AAAAAAAAIyo/XScJlZS7lH4/s1600/Art+journal+backgrounds+1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5Kxmsfu3mOg/TdNRo2wp9PI/AAAAAAAAIyo/XScJlZS7lH4/s400/Art+journal+backgrounds+1.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ErWhyz4Bhtw/TdNRvAbb8rI/AAAAAAAAIys/4qtnC0fivMQ/s1600/Art+journal+backgrounds.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="318" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ErWhyz4Bhtw/TdNRvAbb8rI/AAAAAAAAIys/4qtnC0fivMQ/s400/Art+journal+backgrounds.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I'm still working on 10 journal pages for a private swap.

When I went to &lt;a href="http://aloveaffairwithpaper.blogspot.com/"&gt;Danielle's blog&lt;/a&gt;, to thank her for the beautiful art, I saw she was thinking of hosting her own postcard swap. So I told her I was interested in participating. It's a much smaller swap (only 8 people total) but it's fun nonetheless. I decided to make 4 very similar postcards and used yesterday's stamp on them. You can see all 4 below. Hopefully, the recipients will like them.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Une des cartes postales que j'ai reçue dans l'échange d'Hanna était de Danielle. Quand je suis allée sur le &lt;a href="http://aloveaffairwithpaper.blogspot.com/"&gt;blog de Danielle&lt;/a&gt; pour la remercier de la belle oeuvre, j'ai vu qu'elle voulait aussi être l'hôte d'un échange de cartes postales. Alors je lui ai dit que j'étais intéressée. C'est un bien plus petit échange (seulement 8 personnes en tout) mais c'est tout aussi amusant. J'ai décidé de faire 4 cartes postales très similaires et ai utilisé l'étampe d'hier. Vous pouvez les voir, toutes les 4, ci-bas. J'espère que les récipiendaires les apprécieront.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-lpSDjRFXR7s/TdHt4V9X_gI/AAAAAAAAIyE/Ug1FARk7UqA/s1600/Find+your+wings+postcard.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

The table I was using to do my art is too low so I moved another one in which has folding panels. I started moving my main supplies to my new work area and I suddenly knew what I needed to finish the postcards I was working on for a swap: a new bird stamp! So I carved my stamp and then tested it on a journal cover before completing my postcards. You can see one of them in the background (they are all similar.) I will scan or photograph them individually for another post.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;While moving things around, I fully realized how much stuff I have and it got a bit overwhelming at one point. So my goal, for the rest of this year, is to create as much as possible with what I already have on hand. The only supply I will allow myself to buy is glue. And I will also get rid of the things I create by selling, giving or donating them whenever possible. I have the supplies, I have the imagination... all I need is to get cracking!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Hier, j'ai décidé de commencer à réarranger mon salon/studio. La table que j'utilisais pour faire mon art est trop basse alors j'en ai déplacée une autre qui a des panneaux battants. J'ai commencé à déplacer mes outils principaux vers ma nouvelle aire de travail et j'ai soudainement su ce qu'il me fallait pour finir les cartes postales sur lesquelles je travaillais pour un échange: une nouvelle étampe d'oiseau! Alors j'ai gravé mon étampe et l'ai testée sur la couverture d'un journal avant de terminer mes cartes postales. Vous pouvez en voir une en fond (elles sont toutes similaires.) Je les scannerai ou photographierai individuellement pour un autre article.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Pendant que je déplaçais mes choses, je me suis vraiment rendu compte de la quantité de choses que j'ai et ça m'a un peu écrasé à un certain moment. Alors mon but, pour le reste de l'année, est de créer autant que possible avec ce que j'ai déjà sous la main. La seule fourniture que je me permettrai d'acheter est de la colle. Et je veux aussi me débarrasser des choses que je crée par la vente, les cadeaux ou les dons lorsque possible. J'ai les fournitures, j'ai l'imagination... il ne me reste qu'à me lancer!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-3449274969892241770?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/3449274969892241770/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=3449274969892241770' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/3449274969892241770'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/3449274969892241770'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/05/new-stamp-and-new-goal-une-nouvelle.html' title='A new stamp and a new goal - Une nouvelle étampe et un nouveau but'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-SNy5bC3oBnk/TdCYjhnnDuI/AAAAAAAAIxk/nUXVap4RvWU/s72-c/Flying+bird+stamp.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-5865755200959276533</id><published>2011-05-13T17:12:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-05-13T17:12:55.502-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='challenge'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='doodle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='drawing'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='dessin'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='défi'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='gribouillage'/><title type='text'>Bubble head girl - Fille tête à bulles</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-WSq65Ati5YA/Tc2eDcrGe8I/AAAAAAAAIxU/Gjssizxpx3M/s1600/Bubble+head+girl.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="395" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-WSq65Ati5YA/Tc2eDcrGe8I/AAAAAAAAIxU/Gjssizxpx3M/s400/Bubble+head+girl.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Here is the finished doodle.

This is my first prototype. I had to cut the envelopes because some of them wear torn at the opening. They now measure 6 1/2" x 9". I only used five envelops in this journal because you can use both the front and back as well as tuck extra pages inside. I hadn't done an accordion spine in a long time so I had a bit of trouble figuring out the measurements but in the end, it all worked out nicely. And I'm glad I finally got to use this beautiful paper from K &amp;amp; Company. I didn't add embellishments to the cover because the paper is beautiful on its own. It feels good to use up what I have been keeping for years!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Ma mère m'a donné une pile d'enveloppes en papier kraft utilisées et m'a demandé de les utiliser pour faire des journaux. Voici mon premier prototype. J'ai dû couper les enveloppes parce qu'il y avait des parties déchirées à l'ouverture. Elles mesurent maintenant 16.5cm x 22.9cm. Je n'ai utilisé que cinq enveloppes dans ce journal parce qu'on peut se servir autant du devant que du dos ainsi qu'insérer des pages de surplus à l'intérieur. Je n'avais pas fait de reliure en accordéon depuis un bon moment alors j'ai eu de la difficulté à trouver les bonnes mesures mais tout s'est arrangé à la fin. Et je suis contente de m'être finalement servie du beau papier de K &amp;amp; Company. Je n'ai pas ajouté de décorations sur la couverture parce que le papier est suffisament beau. Ça fait du bien d'utiliser ce que je gardais depuis des années!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-6171014258911651775?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/6171014258911651775/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=6171014258911651775' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/6171014258911651775'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/6171014258911651775'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/05/manila-envelope-journal-journal.html' title='Manila envelope journal - Journal enveloppe de papier kraft'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-_j_hEaQxoio/Tci6sPy3dJI/AAAAAAAAIww/SK3LGLMFFZY/s72-c/9+of+365+-+Manila+envelop+journal.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-7779779593572187089</id><published>2011-05-09T08:00:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2011-05-09T08:00:13.810-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='projet en cours'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='ceecee'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='étampe digitale'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='échange'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mamankoolaid'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='work in progress'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='swap'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='digital stamp'/><title type='text'>Works in progress - Projets en cours</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-oQIOrk6GAa0/TcdnqfweZkI/AAAAAAAAIwU/ZXiuzwquBq4/s1600/WIP+backgrounds.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="318" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-oQIOrk6GAa0/TcdnqfweZkI/AAAAAAAAIwU/ZXiuzwquBq4/s400/WIP+backgrounds.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I have two projects that need to be finished by this weekend. A bundle of journal pages, without any writing on them, for a personal swap and four postcards for a small organized swap. Above, you can see some of the journal backgrounds which are far from being done. Apparently I work well under pressure because whenever I enter a swap, I rarely get my artwork done early. I always make the deadline but it's usually very tight. It doesn't help that I still haven't completed my living room's reorganization. Friday night, I wrote on Facebook that my living room is a mess, my hands are covered in glue and paint and my soul is singing. So, as long as my soul is happy, I'll keep doing it this way!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;J'ai deux projets qui doivent être terminé avant la fin de semaine. Une pile de pages de journal, sans l'écriture dessus, pour un échange personnel et quatre cartes postales pour un petit échange organisé. Ci-haut, vous pouvez voir certains fonds de journal qui sont loin d'être finis. Apparemment je travaille bien sous pression parce que lorsque je m'inscris dans un échange, je fais rarement mes oeuvres à l'avance. Je respecte toujours la date limite mais c'est souvent serré. Ça n'aide pas que je n'aie pas terminé la réorganisation de mon salon. Vendredi soir, j'ai écrit sur Facebook que mon salon est en désordre, mes mains sont couvertes de colle et de peinture et mon âme chante. Alors, tant que mon âme sera heureuse, je continuerai comme ça!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;My friend CeeCee is offering her very &lt;a href="http://www.creationsceecee.com/2011/05/lil-cee-ballerina-my-first-ever-digi-stamp.html"&gt;first digital stamp&lt;/a&gt; at a very special price this week. If you decide to buy it, tell her MissKoolAid sent you!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;My mom, &lt;a href="http://mamankoolaid.blogspot.com/"&gt;Angelle&lt;/a&gt;, has returned to blogging.

I found this book at my local art supply store and I could not put it down. It has so many great ideas to make books and journals along with excellent instructions and information. If you want to make your own books, this is definitely a good resource.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #134f5c; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Pour faire le livre ailé, j'ai suivi les instructions du livre &lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/Making-Handmade-Books-Bindings-Structures/dp/1600595871"&gt;Making Handmade Books: 100+ Bindings, Structures &amp;amp; Forms by Alisa Golden&lt;/a&gt;.  J'ai trouvé ce livre à ma boutique de fournitures artistiques et je  n'ai pas pu m'en passer. Il y a tellement de bonnes idées pour faire des  livres et journaux en plus d'excellentes instructions et informations.  Si vous voulez faire vos propres livres, c'est définitivement une bonne  référence.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Back to the winged book itself. I used papers from Stampin' Up! but after folding the pages, I realized that the ledger patterns ended up on the diagonal. Not exactly what I had in mind. But since this is my prototype, I now know how to place and cut my paper to use it properly in this type of book. I decided to go for wrapped hard covers and love the effect. When closed, the book measures 3" x 6"; fully opened, it's 36" long.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #134f5c; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #134f5c; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;De retour au livre ailé. J'ai pris des papiers de Stampin' Up! mais après avoir plié les pages, je me suis apperçue que le motif de feuille ligné se retrouvait à la diagonale. Pas excatement ce que j'avais en tête. Mais comme ceci est mon prototype, je sais maintenant comment placer et couper mon papier pour l'utiliser comme il faut dans ce genre de livre. J'ai décidé de faire des couvertures rigides enveloppées et j'aime beaucoup l'effet. Fermé, le livre mesure 7.6cm x 15.2cm; complètement ouvert, il fait 91.4cm de long.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #134f5c; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-1614960470359217510?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/1614960470359217510/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=1614960470359217510' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/1614960470359217510'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/1614960470359217510'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/05/winged-book-le-livre-aile.html' title='The winged book - Le livre ailé'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zUFA6Mhwwpg/TcDdTVqNjpI/AAAAAAAAIvw/eEyKPW5jJWo/s72-c/8+of+365+-+Winged+book.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-8185235350329623356</id><published>2011-05-03T08:00:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2011-05-03T08:00:10.893-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mini-livre'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='tirage'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mini-book'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='giveaway'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='gagnantes'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='projet'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='project'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='365'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='winners'/><title type='text'>Winners - Gagnantes</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tntY9VkfVKU/Tb9yZMKA-BI/AAAAAAAAIvg/IjhOyjiyztQ/s1600/7+of+365+-+Snack+box+journal.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tntY9VkfVKU/Tb9yZMKA-BI/AAAAAAAAIvg/IjhOyjiyztQ/s400/7+of+365+-+Snack+box+journal.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I love making journals out of recycled materials. The paper for the pages was leftover from previous journals. I used the box from marshmallow squares to make the covers.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Last week, I decided to have a giveaway for my 600th post. Since I only received 4 comments (one of which is from my mother,) I decided not to pick a name and to give a journal to each of them. My mom left a comment without participating but she can get custom journals any time she wants! So, Janet, CeeCee and Melissa, you are all winners! Let me know which type of journal you prefer from my &lt;a href="http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/search/label/365"&gt;365 project&lt;/a&gt; and you'll get it as soon as possible!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;J'aime faire des journnaux avec des matériaux recyclés. Le papier pour les pages vient du surplus des journaux précédents. Je me suis servie d'une boite de carrés à la guimauve pour faire les couvertures.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;La semaine passée, j'ai décidé de faire un tirage pour mon 600ème article. Comme je n'ai eu que 4 commentaires (l'un d'eux étant de ma mère,) j'ai décidé de ne pas piger de nom et de leur donner chacune un journal. Ma mère a laissé un commentaire sans participer mais elle peut avoir des journaux faits sur mesure n'importe quand! Alors, Janet, CeeCee et Melissa, vous êtes toutes des gagnantes! Laissez-moi savoir quel type de journal vous préférez dans mon &lt;a href="http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/search/label/365"&gt;projet 365&lt;/a&gt; et vous l'aurez le plus tôt possible!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-8185235350329623356?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/8185235350329623356/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=8185235350329623356' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/8185235350329623356'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/8185235350329623356'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/05/winners-gagnantes.html' title='Winners - Gagnantes'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tntY9VkfVKU/Tb9yZMKA-BI/AAAAAAAAIvg/IjhOyjiyztQ/s72-c/7+of+365+-+Snack+box+journal.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-5502697626403111140</id><published>2011-05-02T08:00:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2011-05-02T08:00:00.270-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='show'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='baladi'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='spectacle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='belly dance'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='costumes'/><title type='text'>After the show - Après le spectacle</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I had a really busy weekend with rehearsal and shows so I didn't have time to create anything. But I can show you the 2 costumes I wore. The pink one was for the intermediate choreography and the gold and blue for the beginner's. I had only 6 weeks to learn the beginner's choreography due to other dancers giving up but everything turned out great. I had a blast and can't wait to do it again next year.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;J'ai eu une fin de semaine occupée avec la pratique et les spectacles alors je n'ai pas eu le temps de créer quoi que ce soit. Mais je peux vous montrer les 2 costumes que j'ai portés. Le rose était pour la chorégraphie intermediaire et le doré et bleu pour celle des débutantes. J'ai eu seulement 6 semaines pour apprendre la chorégraphie débutante parce que d'autres danseuses ont abandonné mais tout a bien fini. J'ai eu beaucoup de plaisir et j'ai hâte de recommencer l'année prochaine.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-pgnbwflQ8TM/Tb444sfvGuI/AAAAAAAAIvY/Ke4MBf6XpME/s1600/Basbousa+costume.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-pgnbwflQ8TM/Tb444sfvGuI/AAAAAAAAIvY/Ke4MBf6XpME/s400/Basbousa+costume.JPG" width="265" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-RRDyciv5mdQ/Tb48uzMDdhI/AAAAAAAAIvc/SSkRbJUnl2w/s1600/Belly+dance+little+group1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-RRDyciv5mdQ/Tb48uzMDdhI/AAAAAAAAIvc/SSkRbJUnl2w/s400/Belly+dance+little+group1.jpg" width="255" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-5502697626403111140?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/5502697626403111140/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=5502697626403111140' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/5502697626403111140'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/5502697626403111140'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/05/after-show-apres-le-spectacle.html' title='After the show - Après le spectacle'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-pgnbwflQ8TM/Tb444sfvGuI/AAAAAAAAIvY/Ke4MBf6XpME/s72-c/Basbousa+costume.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-9020271162689874051</id><published>2011-04-29T08:00:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2011-04-29T08:00:00.548-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Diesel'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='baladi'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='photography'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='photographie'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='belly dance'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='vendredi photo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='photo friday'/><title type='text'>Photo Friday #13 - Vendredi photo #13</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-6FiX6z016Ek/TbovsleQg1I/AAAAAAAAIuk/Ai726YDso9I/s1600/PF+13.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-6FiX6z016Ek/TbovsleQg1I/AAAAAAAAIuk/Ai726YDso9I/s400/PF+13.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Diesel loves to hide in my reusable shopping bags.

I love to encourage young talents and I think that trading ATCs with them is a great way to do so. I have a few in the works but this one was finished while watching the final game between the Habs and the Bruins. I rarely watch whole hockey games because I get over-excited but I just had to watch that one last night. Unfortunately, the Habs lost but it was a really great game.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;J'ai recommencé à faire des CAÉ simples, surtout parce que je veux en avoir de disponibles pour échanger avec les élèves de ma mère. J'aime encourager les jeunes talents et je pense qu'échanger des CAÉ est une bonne façon de le faire. J'en ai quelques-unes de commencées mais celle-ci fut terminée en regardant la dernière partie entre le Canadien et les Bruins. Je regarde rarement une partie entière de hockey parce que je deviens sur-excitée mais je me devais de regarder celle-là hier soir. Malheureusement, le Canadien a perdu mais c'était une très bonne partie.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-8100326381236119536?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/8100326381236119536/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=8100326381236119536' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/8100326381236119536'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/8100326381236119536'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/04/silly-duck-atc-cae-canard-bizarre.html' title='Silly duck ATC - CAÉ Canard bizarre'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Y3g1x4_mcnU/TbjoE6cg4hI/AAAAAAAAIuY/9VvpyjLARmQ/s72-c/Silly+duck+-+Canard+bizarre.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-7702722351755192027</id><published>2011-04-27T08:00:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2011-04-27T08:00:05.597-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='retro'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='vieux livres'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='old books'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='vintage'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='rétro'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='books'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='livres'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='inspiration'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='70s'/><title type='text'>Vintage craft books - Livres d'artisanat vintages</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-QrUFnN-cwAw/TbeT-f19HaI/AAAAAAAAIuU/e3N0ENG31XI/s1600/70s+fashion.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-QrUFnN-cwAw/TbeT-f19HaI/AAAAAAAAIuU/e3N0ENG31XI/s400/70s+fashion.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;I love looking at old craft books.

So, some days will see more than one type of journal being constructed while other days will be about gathering materials and inspiration (I already have 4 books on making journals and books by hand.) Over the long weekend, I've managed to create 3 different models.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Comme je m'y attendais, il m'est difficile de créer un journal par jour mais j'ai tout de même l'intention de faire 365 journaux en une année. Alors, certains jours verront plusieurs modèles de journal être construits alors que d'autres jours seront pour la cueillette de matériaux et d'inspiration (j'ai déjà 4 livres sur la fabrication de livres et journaux à la main.)

While the sun was setting, we passed an area where there were hundreds if not thousands of them flying and landing. It was magnificent!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #134f5c; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Ici, vous pouvez voir beaucoup d'outardes vues le matin. Au moment du coucher du soleil, nous avons passé un espace où il y avait des centaines sinon des milliers d'outardes qui volaient et atterrissaient.

The challenge was to make something out of paper without using scissors or glue and without writing on it. This was easy: I simply folded 5 sheets of copy paper in half, one sheet of decorative paper and stitched them all together with a piece of linen. I added a few beads to the linen for decoration.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Don't worry, I'm not going to only blog about my daily journal making! I have other things in the works too.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Jour 3 de 365 mini journaux. Le défi était de faire quelque chose avec du papier sans utiliser de ciseaux ou de colle et sans écrire/dessiner dessus. C'était facile: j'ai simplement plié en deux 5 feuilles de papier à photocopie, une feuille de papier décoratif et les ai toutes cousues ensemble avec une longueur de lin. J'ai enfilé quelques perles sur le lin comme décoration.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Ne vous inquiétez pas, je ne bloguerai pas seulement à propos de ma fabrication quotidienne de journaux!

Day 1 was to make something that would fit in the palm of your hand. My mini journals from yesterday fit that criteria. For Day 2, the idea is to use your favourite animal as inspiration. Of course, I had to pick the cat. So I decided to create a journal from things that my cat loves to play with: cardboard from boxes, masking tape, feathers, string and yarn. The 20 pages are made from sketchpad paper. The covers measure 6" x 6" and the pages 5 1/2" x 5 1/2".&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;Hier, j'ai oublié de mentionner que dans &lt;a href="http://www.amazon.ca/365-Creativity-Journal-Something-Change/dp/0760339961/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;amp;s=books&amp;amp;qid=1303187114&amp;amp;sr=1-1"&gt;365: A daily creativity journal&lt;/a&gt; il y a une idée pour chaque journée, pour nous aider à compléter notre projet. Jour 1 proposait de faire quelque chose qui se tient dans la paume de la main. Mes mini journaux d'hier répondaient à ce critère. Pour Jour 2, l'idée est de créer quelque chose en s'inspirant de son animal préféré. J'ai évidemment choisi le chat. Alors j'ai décidé de créer un journal fait avec des choses avec lesquelles ma chatte aime jouer: carton provenant de boites, ruban adhésif, plumes, corde et laine. Les 20 pages sont faites avec le papier d'une tablette à croquis. Les couvertures mesures 15.25cm x 15.25cm et les pages 14cm x 14cm.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-259396096066502481?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/259396096066502481/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=259396096066502481' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/259396096066502481'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/259396096066502481'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/04/cat-inspired-journal-journal-inspire.html' title='Cat inspired journal - Journal inspiré d&apos;un chat'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-b14WMOZYa_0/Ta5koA2Z0PI/AAAAAAAAIs8/PtT0wUN_4vY/s72-c/Cat+inspired+journal.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-2245640922423460021</id><published>2011-04-19T08:00:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2011-04-19T08:00:05.035-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='journal artistique'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='books'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='handmade'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fait à la main'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art journal'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='projet'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='project'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='365'/><title type='text'>Books and journals - Livres et journaux</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-uoZu-ia0MnU/Ta0MPcsjaeI/AAAAAAAAIrw/yxr6FvV2ScU/s1600/Ten+minute+journals.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-uoZu-ia0MnU/Ta0MPcsjaeI/AAAAAAAAIrw/yxr6FvV2ScU/s400/Ten+minute+journals.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Last month, I won the book &lt;a href="http://www.amazon.ca/Art-Speed-Life-Inspiration-Mixed-Media/dp/1596682612/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&amp;amp;ie=UTF8&amp;amp;qid=1303187064&amp;amp;sr=1-1"&gt;Art at the Speed of Life&lt;/a&gt; on &lt;a href="http://thequeenofcreativity.blogspot.com/"&gt;Kate&lt;/a&gt;'s blog and I finally started reading it over the weekend. One of the first exercises in the book is to make a Ten-Minute Journal. Well, I didn't have the size of paper suggested in the book so I made smaller ones instead. The ones in the photo were done with colored copy paper (8 1/2" x 11") and I made another one with watercolour paper (11" x 15".)&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Over the weekend, I treated myself to a few craft books, one of which is &lt;a href="http://www.amazon.ca/365-Creativity-Journal-Something-Change/dp/0760339961/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;amp;s=books&amp;amp;qid=1303187114&amp;amp;sr=1-1"&gt;365: A daily creativity journal&lt;/a&gt;. A few years ago, I made &lt;a href="http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2008/01/daily-art-cards.html"&gt;daily art cards&lt;/a&gt; for a full year. I haven't done a 365 project before or since and I thought now would be a great time to get started. Why now? Well, actually, as I'm writing this, it's still April 18th which is exactly 6 months from my birthday so it seemed like a good time to get started on such a project. I don't know if I'll make 365 journals or if it'll be 365 days of making journals AND creating in them. It might turn into something completely different along the way but for now, I want to make new mini-journals every day. And hopefully, some of them will find their way into my &lt;a href="http://www.artfire.com/users/MissKoolAid"&gt;store&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Le mois dernier, j'ai gagné le livre &lt;a href="http://www.amazon.ca/Art-Speed-Life-Inspiration-Mixed-Media/dp/1596682612/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&amp;amp;ie=UTF8&amp;amp;qid=1303187064&amp;amp;sr=1-1"&gt;Art at the Speed of Life&lt;/a&gt; sur le blogue de &lt;a href="http://thequeenofcreativity.blogspot.com/"&gt;Kate &lt;/a&gt;et j'ai finalement commencé à le lire pendant la fin de semaine. Un des premiers exercices dans le livre est le Journal Dix-Minute. Et bien, je n'avais pas la grandeur de papier recommandée dans le livre alors j'en ai fait des plus petits à la place. Ceux dans la photo ont été faits avec du papier de couleur pour imprimante (21.5cm x 27.9cm) et j'en ai fait un autre avec du papier aquarelle (27.9cm x 38.1cm.)&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Pendant la fin de semaine, je me suis fait plaisir en achetant quelques livres d'artisanat, l'un d'eux étant &lt;a href="http://www.amazon.ca/365-Creativity-Journal-Something-Change/dp/0760339961/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;amp;s=books&amp;amp;qid=1303187114&amp;amp;sr=1-1"&gt;365: A daily creativity journal&lt;/a&gt;. Il y a quelques années, j'ai fait des &lt;a href="http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2008/01/daily-art-cards.html"&gt;cartes artistiques journalières&lt;/a&gt; pendant une année complète. Je n'avais pas fait de projet 365 avant et n'ai pas répété l'expérience depuis et je me suis dit que ce serait un bon moment pour m'y mettre. Pourquoi maintenant? Et bien, en fait, j'écris ceci alors que nous sommes encore le 18 avril qui est à exactement 6 mois de ma fête alors ça semblait être un bon moment pour commencer un tel projet. Je ne sais pas si je ferai 365 journaux ou si ce sera 365 jours à faire des journaux ET créer sur leurs pages. Ça changera peut-être complètement au fil du temps mais pour l'instant, je veux faire des mini-journaux chaque jour. Et espérons que certains d'entre eux se retrouveront dans ma &lt;a href="http://www.artfire.com/users/MissKoolAid"&gt;boutique&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-2245640922423460021?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/2245640922423460021/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=2245640922423460021' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/2245640922423460021'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/2245640922423460021'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/04/books-and-journals-livres-et-journaux.html' title='Books and journals - Livres et journaux'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-uoZu-ia0MnU/Ta0MPcsjaeI/AAAAAAAAIrw/yxr6FvV2ScU/s72-c/Ten+minute+journals.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-6418221415831865590</id><published>2011-04-18T08:00:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2011-04-18T08:00:10.034-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='reutiliser'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='project restyle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='vêtements altérés'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='upcycling'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='reusing'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='altered clothes'/><title type='text'>Project ReStyle #14</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-usMoMaqAzzM/TavB8jbc10I/AAAAAAAAIrY/QFdM1DlGrL8/s1600/Project+ReStyle+%252314.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="200" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-usMoMaqAzzM/TavB8jbc10I/AAAAAAAAIrY/QFdM1DlGrL8/s400/Project+ReStyle+%252314.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I have had these socks for way too long. They were warm and comfortable so I couldn't part with them even when they became unwearable. So, inspired by Alisa Burke's &lt;a href="http://alisaburke.blogspot.com/2011/02/valentines-day-arm-warmers.html"&gt;tutorial&lt;/a&gt;, I made some arm warmers. I turned the socks inside out to do this because frankly, it looked better than the outside and I stitched everything by hand.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;J'ai ces bas depuis vraiment trop longtemps. Ils étaient chauds et confortables alors je n'arrivais pas à m'en défaire une fois qu'ils n'ont plus été portables. Alors, inspirée par le &lt;a href="http://alisaburke.blogspot.com/2011/02/valentines-day-arm-warmers.html"&gt;tutoriel &lt;/a&gt;d'Alisa Burke, j'ai fait des couvres-bras. J'ai tourné les bas à l'envers parce que franchement, l'intérieur parassait mieux que l'extérieur et j'ai tout cousu à la main.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-6418221415831865590?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/6418221415831865590/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=6418221415831865590' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/6418221415831865590'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/6418221415831865590'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/04/project-restyle-14.html' title='Project ReStyle #14'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-usMoMaqAzzM/TavB8jbc10I/AAAAAAAAIrY/QFdM1DlGrL8/s72-c/Project+ReStyle+%252314.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-1191205428316297675</id><published>2011-04-15T08:00:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-04-15T08:00:08.386-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='photography'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='photographie'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='vendredi photo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='photo friday'/><title type='text'>Photo Friday #11 - Vendredi photo #11</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-MkhCI8LrOD8/Tae81c1ce3I/AAAAAAAAIq8/6zNRWPhrOCE/s1600/PF+11.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="266" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-MkhCI8LrOD8/Tae81c1ce3I/AAAAAAAAIq8/6zNRWPhrOCE/s400/PF+11.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I received some roses on Monday.

Here, I made a circle out of water first, then I added the colours while it was still wet. I love that the colours bleed into one another. I let everything dry for a few hours, then I drew a mandala with a Sharpie on top of it.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;J'aime jouer avec l'aquarelle.

Some paint, grunging up and embellishments later, I have a love container to hold pens, pencils and other writing tools.

Une peu de peinture, un peu de "salissage" et des embellissements, j'ai maintenant un beau contenant pour des crayons, stylos et autres outils d'écritue.

J'ai commencé par tracer le cercle, puis j'ai dessiné des motifs et les ai répétés. Je ne voulais pas que mon cercle semble trop remplit alors j'ai laissé beaucoup d'espace blanc. Aussi, j'ai aimé essayer ce nouveau motif de la &lt;a href="http://archive.constantcontact.com/fs023/1101168872594/archive/1105038940782.html"&gt;liste d'envoi de Zentangle&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-88088449245105432?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/88088449245105432/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=88088449245105432' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/88088449245105432'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/88088449245105432'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/04/mandala-view-within-la-vue-vers.html' title='Mandala The view within - La vue vers l&apos;intérieur'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-4L6fOoc6cOA/TZqDtZlN94I/AAAAAAAAIkc/1QVo4MrkGu4/s72-c/Mandala+The+view+within.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-6500659092330575359</id><published>2011-04-04T08:00:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2011-04-04T08:00:06.645-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mixed media'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kate'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='multimédia'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Cassandra D&apos;Orléans'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='faux journal'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='journal artistique'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art journal'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fake journal'/><title type='text'>Fake art journal - Faux journal artistique</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vi6Og3pZX_E/TZk4_RmIbrI/AAAAAAAAIjw/61LLxpIE_wg/s1600/Fake+Journaling+-+Feeling+free.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vi6Og3pZX_E/TZk4_RmIbrI/AAAAAAAAIjw/61LLxpIE_wg/s400/Fake+Journaling+-+Feeling+free.jpg" width="307" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Last week, Kate linked to the &lt;a href="http://officialinternationalfakejournalblog.blogspot.com/"&gt;Official International Fake Journal Blog&lt;/a&gt; and I immediately thought that was a project I would enjoy.

Un normal et un faux que je remplierai en tant que mon alter ego de longue date, Cassandra D'Orléans.

I haven't done nearly as much as I would've liked in it but I did do a few pages which I will show next week.

Je n'en ai pas fait autant que j'aurais voulu à l'intérieur mais j'ai quand même fait quelques pages que je vous montrerai la semaine prochaine. À ces côtés, un plus petit journal fait à partir du troisième feuillet du journal, lequel s'est décroché dû à une mauvais choix de fil.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-kahgM6vjCF4/TZP6c_RWxDI/AAAAAAAAIh4/DtN7rd_EH-Y/s1600/Mandala+-+Growing+seeds.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="398" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-kahgM6vjCF4/TZP6c_RWxDI/AAAAAAAAIh4/DtN7rd_EH-Y/s400/Mandala+-+Growing+seeds.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;Next, a simple mandala done over the weekend and which I had completely forgotten about before making this post!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #134f5c; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Suit un mandala simple que j'ai fait au courant de la fin de semaine et que j'avais oublié jusqu'à ce que j'écrive cet article!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-mFdhRgAGaww/TZP6dXSOgII/AAAAAAAAIh8/GuzW-lYul0w/s1600/Mosaic+Zentangle+%25231.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-mFdhRgAGaww/TZP6dXSOgII/AAAAAAAAIh8/GuzW-lYul0w/s400/Mosaic+Zentangle+%25231.jpg" width="288" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Finally, this is the #1 ATC for the &lt;a href="http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/03/2-3-4-6-7.html"&gt;Zentangle mosaic&lt;/a&gt;.

Because of that book! I spent most of yesterday with CeeCee as we went to buy this book (we are obsessed with this series!) We ate, we talked and even read the prologue together! And then, I had my bellydance classes. So when I finally made it home, I was too tired to create something nice for the blog. I will make up for it tomorrow, I promise!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Je vais être honnête avec vous, je n'ai rien de créatif à vous montrer aujourd'hui. Et ce livre en est la cause! J'ai passé une bonne partie de la journée d'hier avec CeeCee puisque nous sommes allées acheter ce livre (nous sommes obsédée par cette série!) Nous avons mangé, nous avons parlé et nous avons même lu le prologue ensemble! Puis, j'avais mes cours de baladi.

J'aime le collier tel quel mais les boucles d'oreilles étaient trop grosses à mon goût. Alors j'en ai transformée une en grosse bague et l'autre en barrette pour cheveux.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Je travaille toujours mes cartes postales pour l'échange et d'autres petites choses.

I had prepared my supplies to make a whole series of them after that but things happened and I didn't complete that project. Well, I picked it back up this week and now have a small collection of felt leaves. So far, I only did realistic colours but I think I might do a few more colourful ones (how about pink leaves? or teal?) I'll let you know what I decide.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Il y a déjà plus de 6 mois que j'ai fait mes &lt;a href="http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2010/09/autumn-necklace-collier-dautomne.html"&gt;premières feuilles en feutrine&lt;/a&gt;. J'avais préparé mon matériel pour en faire toute une série mais des choses sont survenues et je n'ai pas complété ce projet. Et bien, je l'ai repris cette semaine et j'ai maintenant une petite collection de feuilles en feutrine. Jusqu'à présent, je n'ai utilisé que des couleurs réalistes mais je pense en faire quelques-unes plus colorées (que pensez-vous de feuilles roses? ou sarcelle?) Je vous laisserai connaitre ma décision.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-6421707686083014733?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/6421707686083014733/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=6421707686083014733' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/6421707686083014733'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/6421707686083014733'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/03/felt-leaves-feuilles-en-feutrine.html' title='Felt leaves - Feuilles en feutrine'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-F6_empJjwwE/TYlaonoHe4I/AAAAAAAAIeo/4Aos90UDHcU/s72-c/Felt+leaves.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-2517095013111851017</id><published>2011-03-22T08:00:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2011-03-22T08:00:19.413-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='daisy yellow'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='design-a-doodle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='doodle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='drawing'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='dessin'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='gribouillage'/><title type='text'>Doodling fun - Le plaisir du gribouillage</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;In my inspiration files, I keep images that can be used to create doodles and patterns. So I decided to use a few of them and make a few doodles to incorporate in my mandalas and zentangles.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Dans ma filière d'inspiration, je garde des images qui peuvent servir à créer des gribouillages et des motifs. Alors j'ai décidé d'en prendre quelques-uns et de faire quelques gribouillages à incorporer dans mes mandalas et zentangles.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-nM_Um2Lwrrk/TYgEuRpjd-I/AAAAAAAAIeE/fNSSh481ew0/s1600/Design+a+doodle+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-nM_Um2Lwrrk/TYgEuRpjd-I/AAAAAAAAIeE/fNSSh481ew0/s400/Design+a+doodle+1.jpg" width="252" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;At the top, a zebra-patterned vase gave me a few ideas. My favourite is the lower right one. At the bottom, chairs lined up, seen from the back. I like both patterns.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #134f5c; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Dans le haut, un vase zébré m'a donné plusieurs idées. Ma préférée est le coin droit inférieur. Au bas, des chaises alignées, vues de dos.

The theme: "The end of winter in..." I decided to go with a less obvious take on the subject by photographing the skirts and dresses in my closet, which I tend not to wear during winter. And such pretty colours they have!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Du côté de &lt;a href="http://wildprecious.ning.com/"&gt;Wild Precious&lt;/a&gt;, la première invitation à créer dans le groupe Shutter Babes est affiché. Le thème: "La fin de l'hiver dans..." J'ai décidé de répondre au sujet de façon moins évidente en photographiant les jupes et robes dans mon placard, ne les portant pas particulièrement en hiver. Et quelles belles couleurs elles ont!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-6298506393975928729?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/6298506393975928729/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=6298506393975928729' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/6298506393975928729'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/6298506393975928729'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/03/photo-friday-7-vendredi-photo-7.html' title='Photo Friday #7 - Vendredi photo #7'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-a0ldA2YoyL4/TYKKe6b6IrI/AAAAAAAAIc8/5s3TolCmbtY/s72-c/PF7+-+The+end+of+winter+in+my+closet.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-8056513456156066843</id><published>2011-03-17T08:00:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-03-17T08:00:03.229-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='carte d&apos;artiste échangeable'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='artist trading card'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='atc'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='zentangle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='drawing'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='dessin'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='caé'/><title type='text'>Zentangle ATC #6 of 9 - CAÉ zentangle #6 de 9</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

I made 3 signatures of 5 sheets and hand-sewed them to the spine of the covers. I'll show the outside in another post.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;This is the first page I made in it. This paper is white cardstock. I used a mask (made by CeeCee) and sprayed over it with some shimmer mist. Then I glued the red label over it and doodled a bit with a silver gel pen. I quickly carved 3 small stamps and tested them to make the border on the left. Traced the border's line with my gel pen and finally, wrote at the bottom and stamped the date. I loved making the small stamps (all under 1") and plan to make more for quick additions to journal pages.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Même si j'ai déjà suffisament de journaux achetés et faits à la main, je ne pouvais résister à la tentation d'en faire un nouveau pour le mois de Mars. J'ai fait 3 feuillets de 5 feuilles que j'ai cousus à la main au dos de la couverture. Je vous montrerai l'extérieur dans un autre article.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Voici la première page que j'ai faite dans ce journal. Ce type de papier est du carton blanc. J'ai utilisé un masque (fait par CeeCee) et j'ai vaporisé par-dessus avec un mélange scintillant. Puis j'ai collé l'étiquette rouge par dessus et j'ai gribouillé un peu avec un stylo gel argenté. J'ai rapidement graver 3 petites étampes que j'ai testées pour faire la bordure à gauche. J'ai tracé la ligne de la bordure avec mon stylo gel et finalement, j'ai écrit dans le bas et étampé la date. J'ai aimé faire les petites étampes (toutes moins de 2cms) et j'ai l'intention d'en faire plus pour des ajouts rapides sur mes pages de journal.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-3245720282299684380?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/3245720282299684380/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=3245720282299684380' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/3245720282299684380'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/3245720282299684380'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/03/march-journal-journal-de-mars.html' title='March Journal - Journal de Mars'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-DuUozzYFd3s/TXhS6RXwSII/AAAAAAAAIag/2qjGHq3AXeE/s72-c/March+journal+page+1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-6812737271340468234</id><published>2011-03-09T08:00:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-03-09T08:00:16.526-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='liens appréciés'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kate'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tammy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='daisy yellow'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='liens'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='link love'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Hanna'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='The Queen of Creativity Castle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cahiers emboitables'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='links'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='linkable notebooks'/><title type='text'>Links - Liens</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-ZBvbDxRnNyI/TXb4t2w_u8I/AAAAAAAAIac/zOI9BztAhJg/s1600/Linkable+books.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-ZBvbDxRnNyI/TXb4t2w_u8I/AAAAAAAAIac/zOI9BztAhJg/s400/Linkable+books.JPG" width="398" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I finally made the &lt;a href="http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2010/12/new-notebooks-nouveaux-cahiers.html"&gt;linkable notebooks&lt;/a&gt; for the winner of my OWOH giveaway.

And in the back of a fun little store, I fell in love. With this set of vintage suitcases! They are in very good condition except for a few snags on the inside but since they will mostly be used for storing, I don't mind. The round one though, I will probably use if I go away for a few days. When I saw the price tag, at first, I didn't want to pay that much. But then, the store owner made me an offer I couldn't refuse. They look so pretty in my bedroom!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #134f5c; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Vendredi dernier, j'ai passé une autre journée de magasinage et flânage avec CeeCee et ma mère. Et c'est à l'arrière d'une boutique amusante que je suis tombée amoureuse. Avec cet ensemble de valises! Elles sont en très bonne condition à l'exception de quelques accros à l'intérieur mais puisqu'elle serviront surtout à du rangement, ça ne me dérange pas. Cependant, j'utiliserais probablement la ronde si je part pour quelques jours. Quand j'ai vu le prix, au début, je ne voulais pas dépenser autant. Mais le propriétaire de la boutique m'a fait une offre que je ne pouvais refuser. Elles sont si jolies dans ma chambre à coucher!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-7332884653122279353?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/7332884653122279353/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=7332884653122279353' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/7332884653122279353'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/7332884653122279353'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/03/new-acquisition-nouvelle-acquisition.html' title='New acquisition - Nouvelle acquisition'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-X2BKgMZS5dQ/TXWp0Y3gN4I/AAAAAAAAIZk/6P0Qa9NpyU8/s72-c/Vintage+luggage+set.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-1329012173838510022</id><published>2011-03-07T08:00:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-03-07T08:00:10.252-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='reutiliser'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='pendentif'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='project restyle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='jewelry'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fisher Price'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bijoux'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='upcycling'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='reusing'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='pendant'/><title type='text'>Project ReStyle #9</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-8p18T_-xRgs/TXRGV91lqwI/AAAAAAAAIZg/0E_mdcw_3m4/s1600/Project+ReStyle+%25239.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="202" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-8p18T_-xRgs/TXRGV91lqwI/AAAAAAAAIZg/0E_mdcw_3m4/s400/Project+ReStyle+%25239.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;While sorting through boxes of stuff in my mom's studio, I found this little rooster from Fisher Price.

I have new ideas popping in my head.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #134f5c; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;En fouillant dans les boites de matériel dans l'atelier de ma mère, j'ai trouvé ce petit coq de Fisher Price.

A &lt;a href="http://richardletendreribbonsbuttons.blogspot.com/"&gt;buttons &amp;amp; ribbons store&lt;/a&gt;.

Une &lt;a href="http://www.rubansboutons.blogspot.com/"&gt;boutique de boutons et rubans&lt;/a&gt;. Nous y avons passé plus d'une heure, principalement à fouiller cette énorme pile de boutons pour les plus intéressants!

I used the sleeves from a favourite sweater that needed a lot of mending and turned them into leg warmers. Because this sweater is a light weight knit, I used my sewing machine instead of stitching by hand. Much easier. What I love about these warmers is that they are reversible! I am thinking of making cute embellishments to add with safety pins for different looks. And I'm still thinking of what I'll create with the rest of the sweater.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Un restyle très simple cette semaine. J'ai utilisé les manches de ce chandail, un favori qui nécessitait beaucoup de répérations, et les ai transformées en jambières. Parce que le chandail est un léger tricot, je me suis servie de ma machine à coudre plutôt que de coudre à la main. Plus facile. Ce que j'aime de ces jambières c'est qu'elles sont réversible! Je pense faire de mignons accessoires à ajouter avec des épingles à ressort pour différents looks. Et je pense encore à ce que je vais créer avec le reste du chandail.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-1047450125616265678?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/1047450125616265678/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=1047450125616265678' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/1047450125616265678'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/1047450125616265678'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/02/project-restyle-8.html' title='Project ReStyle #8'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-ei-lT8FkJ4c/TWq8QSuIULI/AAAAAAAAIXc/mSBhHeCvLZw/s72-c/Project+ReStyle+%25238.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-5008895770274552906</id><published>2011-02-25T08:00:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-02-25T08:00:20.063-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='photography'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='photographie'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='vendredi photo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='photo friday'/><title type='text'>Photo Friday #4 - Photo Vendredi #4</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-GObFs8u5X2U/TWctmT6REpI/AAAAAAAAIW8/e6x11VstwEo/s1600/The+wheel+keeps+turning.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="267" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-GObFs8u5X2U/TWctmT6REpI/AAAAAAAAIW8/e6x11VstwEo/s400/The+wheel+keeps+turning.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;These past two weeks have been all about new experiences for me. Mostly, good experiences. And I was able to accept the bad ones for what they were and then move on. I'm still learning, still growing. And in a way, I hope I always will.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Les deux dernières semaines m'ont fait vivre de nouvelles expériences. Des bonnes pour la plupart. Et j'ai été capable d'accepter les mauvaises pour ce qu'elles étaient et de continuer mon chemin. J'apprends et je grandis encore. Et d'une certaine façon, j'espère que ce sera toujours le cas. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Today, I'm showing you a photo of my movie reel. The subject of the photo is more or less important here. What I wanted to do is to look at it from a different angle, a different perspective. And create some sort of flow. I think I have achieved just that. This is the kind of photo I would frame and hang on my wall... if I didn't already have the real thing!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Aujourd'hui, je vous montre une photo de ma roue de cinéma. Le sujet de la photo est plus ou moins important ici. Ce que je voulais faire c'est de le regarder d'un angle différent, avec une perspective différente. Et je voulais créer une sorte de fluidité. Je pense que j'y suis parvenue. C'est le genre de photo que j'encadrerais et accrocherais sur mon mur... si je n'avais pas déjà le sujet original!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Have a nice weekend everyone!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Bonne fin de semaine à tous! &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-5008895770274552906?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/5008895770274552906/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=5008895770274552906' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/5008895770274552906'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/5008895770274552906'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/02/photo-friday-4-photo-vendredi-4.html' title='Photo Friday #4 - Photo Vendredi #4'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-GObFs8u5X2U/TWctmT6REpI/AAAAAAAAIW8/e6x11VstwEo/s72-c/The+wheel+keeps+turning.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-7496882437941630514</id><published>2011-02-24T08:00:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-02-24T08:00:08.011-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mandala'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='drawing'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='dessin'/><title type='text'>Mandala Tickle - Chatouille</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-EuCwCT-DxMw/TWXTxnDwj8I/AAAAAAAAILs/g3wF3TRohIY/s1600/Mandala+Tickle.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-EuCwCT-DxMw/TWXTxnDwj8I/AAAAAAAAILs/g3wF3TRohIY/s400/Mandala+Tickle.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Now that I look at it, I think the title should be more something like "Medusa" or "Jellyfish" but the first thought I had was of a cat's whiskers tickling me.

The paper/stamp/paint supplies are more or less organized but I need to do something about all the fabric I have. A lot of it comes from old/damaged clothes but I will be getting some more fabric soon for different projects. Why am I talking about this and showing a Care Bears shoe storage? Well, it's simple. I'm going to use this storage for small items for my fabric projects: decorative patches, small trims and laces, special buttons, zippers, etc. I had this shoe storage as a kid and my mom was using it in the past few years to hold small pads of pattern paper. The idea is to find new uses for things you might already have on hand.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;J'essaie encore d'organiser mes fournitures pour rendre ma tâche plus facile quand je cherche quelque chose pour un projet. Les fournitures papier/étampe/peinture sont pas mal organisées mais il faut que je fasse quelque chose pour tous mes tissus. La plupart provient de vêtements défraîchis/endommagés mais j'aurai bientôt plus de tissus pour différents projets. Pour je parle de tout ça en vous montrant un rangement à souliers des Câlinours? Bien, c'est simple. Je vais me servir de ce rangement pour les petits items de mes projets en tissus: patchs décoratifs, petites décorations et dentelles, boutons spéciaux, fermetures éclairs, etc. J'avais ce rangement à chaussures quand j'étais enfant et ma mère s'en servait ces dernières années pour des petites tablettes de papiers à motifs. L'idée, c'est de trouver un nouvel usage pour des choses que vous avez peut-être déjà sous la main.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-8993035811354196915?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/8993035811354196915/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=8993035811354196915' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/8993035811354196915'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/8993035811354196915'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/02/creative-organization-organisation.html' title='Creative organization - Organisation créative'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Gzqg4yYT3T4/TWSE1dwayOI/AAAAAAAAILU/j4L_uIeDwtA/s72-c/Care+Bears+shoe+holder.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-7653027587119938951</id><published>2011-02-22T08:00:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-02-22T08:00:14.050-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='february journal'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='collage'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='journal de février'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='journal artistique'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art journal'/><title type='text'>Quick collage - Collage rapide</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Ax3uMqbAkbg/TWMt9_kdFgI/AAAAAAAAIK8/pcW2rwkPy5s/s1600/Awkward+place.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Ax3uMqbAkbg/TWMt9_kdFgI/AAAAAAAAIK8/pcW2rwkPy5s/s400/Awkward+place.jpg" width="278" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;This month, I haven't done much in my journal.

My mother had this little test tube holder but didn't really like the silver colour. And the labels needed to be taken off the tubes. So I soaked the tubes in hot water. The labels came off easily. I sanded the holder which is made of wood. A couple of layers of gesso, a couple of layers of white acrylic and some doodling with a fine brush and black acrylic. I didn't have fresh flowers on hand so I coloured a few paper ones for the photo. Much cuter now!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Quelque chose de différent cette semaine pour mon ReStyle. Ma mère avait ce support à éprouvettes mais n'aimait pas sa couleur argenté. Et les étiquettes devaient être enlevées des éprouvettes. Alors j'ai fait trempé les éprouvettes dans de l'eau chaude. Les étiquettes se sont enlevées facilement. J'ai sablé le support qui est en bois. Quelques couches de gesso, quelques couches d'acrylique blanche et du gribouillage avec un pinceau fin et de l'acrylique noire. Je n'avais pas de fleurs fraîches sous la main alors j'en ai colorié quelques-unes en papier pour la photo.

Le cadre que j'ai utilisé dans la photo mesure 20,5cm x 25,5cm alors ça vous donne une idée de la grosseur du hibou.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-8046727187805240838?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/8046727187805240838/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=8046727187805240838' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/8046727187805240838'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/8046727187805240838'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/02/pink-owl-hibou-rose.html' title='Pink owl - Hibou rose'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KafffUnMsSc/TVsd4nW1mnI/AAAAAAAAIIE/ybAkATqNVlU/s72-c/Pink+owl.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-4456488631540251337</id><published>2011-02-15T08:00:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-02-15T08:01:11.634-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='carte d&apos;artiste échangeable'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='artist trading card'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='atc'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='zentangle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='drawing'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='dessin'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='caé'/><title type='text'>Zentangle ATC #3 of 9 - CAÉ zentangle #3 de 9</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-iriGx1wfZbo/TVn7vX9gyPI/AAAAAAAAIHU/BVdhBKsjWI8/s1600/Mosaic+Zentangle+%25233.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-iriGx1wfZbo/TVn7vX9gyPI/AAAAAAAAIHU/BVdhBKsjWI8/s400/Mosaic+Zentangle+%25233.jpg" width="288" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Last week, I told you about my Zentangle set of ATC.

Until Diesel made holes in it that could not be repaired. (Yes, she still has her claws.) So this weekend, I decided to start giving this well loved piece a new start. I made my own version of a "t-shirt necklace" and the matching bracelet. And I think I just might need a pair of matching earrings too!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Ce t-shirt pourpre était un de mes préférés. Jusqu'à ce que Diesel y fasse des trous que je ne pouvais pas réparer. (Oui, elle a toutes ses griffes.) Alors en fin de semaine passée, j'ai décidé de donner un nouveau départ à ce vêtement tant aimé. J'ai fait ma propre version d'un "collier t-shirt" et le bracelet assorti. Et je pense qu'il me faut aussi une paire de boucles d'oreilles assortie!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-8422362657008128561?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/8422362657008128561/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=8422362657008128561' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/8422362657008128561'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/8422362657008128561'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/02/project-restyle-6.html' title='Project ReStyle #6'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-YBB6_fpI9LM/TVigqXCoF0I/AAAAAAAAIG8/lQDCxpFky9E/s72-c/Project+ReStyle+%25236.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-1348805062222328883</id><published>2011-02-11T08:00:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-02-11T08:00:32.374-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fleur'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='photography'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='photographie'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='flower'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='vendredi photo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='plante'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='photo friday'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='macro'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='plant'/><title type='text'>Photo Friday #2 - Vendredi Photo #2</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;While at my parents' house this week, I played with my camera a bit. The light was nice that afternoon. I even took some macro shots of a few things. This one is my favourite.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Alors que j'étais chez mes parents cette semaine, je me suis amusée avec ma caméra. La lumière était belle cet après-midi là. J'ai même pris quelques photos macros de plusieurs choses. Voici ma préférée.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MhgneY54CUE/TVRwq6lDA8I/AAAAAAAAIF4/aOt0hUSDFNY/s1600/Macro+flower.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="214" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MhgneY54CUE/TVRwq6lDA8I/AAAAAAAAIF4/aOt0hUSDFNY/s320/Macro+flower.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;This flower is actually at the top of this plant which is in the living room's bay window. After a few searches, I found this on &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalanchoe_daigremontiana"&gt;Wikipedia&lt;/a&gt;. Funny thing, we've always called it "Japanese Hat."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Cette fleur est en fait au haut de cette plante qui se trouve dans la bay-window du salon. Après quelques recherches, j'ai trouvé ceci sur &lt;a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bryophyllum_daigremontianum"&gt;Wikipédia&lt;/a&gt;. Étrange, nous l'avons toujours appellée "Chapeau Japonais."&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-B5MtQYgAKeU/TVRwkjhpGeI/AAAAAAAAIF0/622WYCck5YA/s1600/Flowering+plant+-+full+view.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-B5MtQYgAKeU/TVRwkjhpGeI/AAAAAAAAIF0/622WYCck5YA/s320/Flowering+plant+-+full+view.JPG" width="255" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Have a nice weekend!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Passez une belle fin de semaine!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-1348805062222328883?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/1348805062222328883/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=1348805062222328883' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/1348805062222328883'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/1348805062222328883'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/02/photo-friday-2-vendredi-photo-2.html' title='Photo Friday #2 - Vendredi Photo #2'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MhgneY54CUE/TVRwq6lDA8I/AAAAAAAAIF4/aOt0hUSDFNY/s72-c/Macro+flower.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-3241955688570869421</id><published>2011-02-10T08:00:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2011-02-10T08:00:18.322-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='supplies'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fournitures'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='jewelry'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bijoux'/><title type='text'>Treasures - Trésors</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-DX5fHKzpeiA/TVNrkF74kRI/AAAAAAAAIFQ/CzC1mnOtNVg/s1600/So+much+jewelry.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-DX5fHKzpeiA/TVNrkF74kRI/AAAAAAAAIFQ/CzC1mnOtNVg/s400/So+much+jewelry.JPG" width="398" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;In the past few weeks, I have been given many things that I can use in my crafting projects: old clothes, leftover fabric from curtains, other bits and pieces. And this week, I got this amazing lot of jewelry from one of my aunts. There are a few very nice pieces that simply need to be cleaned or polished but a lot of the other stuff will be taken apart and used to make other things. So many supplies for free! I am a happy crafter!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Au cours des dernières semaines, on m'a donné plusieurs choses que je peux utiliser dans mes projets artisanaux: vieux vêtements, surplus de tissu provenant de rideaux, autres bidules. Et cette semaine, j'ai reçu ce lot formidable de bijoux d'une de mes tantes. Il y a quelques morceaux qui valent la pein d'être nettoyés ou polis mais la grande majorité sera démontée et servira à créer d'autres choses. Tant de fournitures gratuites! Je suis une artisane heureuse!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-3241955688570869421?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/3241955688570869421/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=3241955688570869421' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/3241955688570869421'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/3241955688570869421'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/02/treasures-tresors.html' title='Treasures - Trésors'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-DX5fHKzpeiA/TVNrkF74kRI/AAAAAAAAIFQ/CzC1mnOtNVg/s72-c/So+much+jewelry.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-4301906743069134900</id><published>2011-02-09T08:00:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-02-09T08:00:07.032-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='collection'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='photography'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='photographie'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='films'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='movies'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='dvd'/><title type='text'>Collection or addiction?</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TVISWq9Fp7I/AAAAAAAAIFM/9aNLTuVr114/s1600/Vampire+addiction.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TVISWq9Fp7I/AAAAAAAAIFM/9aNLTuVr114/s400/Vampire+addiction.JPG" width="398" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;This is my collection of vampire DVDs so far.

So yesterday, I finally got started on that. I drew my "string" on a piece of 8-1/2" x 11" cardstock and cut it down to 9 ATCs (2-1/2" x 3-1/2".) I numbered them on the back to know which one goes where once they're all done. I picked one without looking (#4 here) and started filling it in. I will show them all individually when they are done and at the end, I'll show the whole group together. After which, they will be available to trade.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Depuis que j'ai découvert les Zentangles, je voulais faire un ensemble de 9 CAÉs qui créeraient un tout lorsque toutes assemblées. Alors, hier, j'ai enfin commencé. J'ai dessiné la "ficelle" sur un carton de 21,6cm x 27,9cm que j'ai coupé en 9 CAÉs (6,3cm x 8,9cm.) Je les ai numérotées au dos pour savoir où elles iront à la fin. J'en ai choisi une au hasard (#4 ici) et j'ai commencé à la remplir. Je les montrerai toutes individuellement lorsqu'elles seront faites puis, à la fin, je montrerai le groupe complet. À la suite de quoi, elles seront disponibles pour des échanges.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-803775702601842581?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/803775702601842581/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=803775702601842581' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/803775702601842581'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/803775702601842581'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/02/zentangle-atc-cae-zentangle.html' title='Zentangle ATC - CAÉ zentangle'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TVDF3exzSzI/AAAAAAAAIEk/UiAQuQGbDr0/s72-c/Mosaic+Zentangle+%25234.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-8006164766990105680</id><published>2011-02-07T08:00:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-02-07T08:00:29.089-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='reutiliser'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='project restyle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='ruban décoratif'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='decorative tape'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='ruban tissu'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fabric tape'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='reusing'/><title type='text'>Project ReStyle #5</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TU9_gdylDTI/AAAAAAAAICs/S--CRN3Riys/s1600/Project+ReStyle+%25235.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="200" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TU9_gdylDTI/AAAAAAAAICs/S--CRN3Riys/s400/Project+ReStyle+%25235.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;For this week's ReStyle, I grabbed a bunch of scrap fabrics, some brown packaging tape (mine is the kind you have to moisten to get it to stick) and some glue to create my very own fabric tape following &lt;a href="http://annekata.blogspot.com/2010/05/fabric-paper-tape-little-tutorial.html"&gt;this tutorial&lt;/a&gt;.

Je savais que je les réutiliserais un jour mais je ne savais pas comment jusqu'à ce que je fasse des journaux comme ceci.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TUormykFnVI/AAAAAAAAIAE/HBkY2r1q8k4/s1600/January+journal+2011-6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="232" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TUormykFnVI/AAAAAAAAIAE/HBkY2r1q8k4/s320/January+journal+2011-6.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;My mirror writing page seen earlier on my blog and it's companion page. The image of the couple is from a magazine.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #134f5c; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Ma page d'écriture miroir vue plus tôt sur mon blogue et sa page compagne. L'image du couple vient d'une revue.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TUorpPrtPDI/AAAAAAAAIAI/i1N1mFARM0Y/s1600/January+journal+2011-7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="235" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TUorpPrtPDI/AAAAAAAAIAI/i1N1mFARM0Y/s320/January+journal+2011-7.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Here, I kept the original drawings intact. Didn't know what to to do over it so I didn't do anything. The other page was a good exercise in patience and a good way to test my gel pens!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #134f5c; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Ici, j'ai gardé les dessins originaux intactes. Je ne savais pas quoi faire par-dessus alors je n'ai rien fait. L'autre page était un bon exercice de patience et une bonne façon de tester mes stylos gels!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TUorqjEbiGI/AAAAAAAAIAM/BUAIckHGz9E/s1600/January+journal+2011-8.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="234" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TUorqjEbiGI/AAAAAAAAIAM/BUAIckHGz9E/s320/January+journal+2011-8.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;A simple but delicious recipe. Every Wednesday, I have dinner with my parents. It started when I moved out 8 years ago and it's still happening. Now, because I have more time (on sick leave for a while), I am trying new and simple recipes on that night. This was our first one.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #134f5c; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Une recette simple mais délicieuse. Chaque mercredi, je soupe avec mes parents. Ç'a commencé quand j'ai quittté le nid familial il y a 8 ans et ça continue. Maintenant, comme j'ai plus de temps (en arrêt de travail pour un moment), j'essaie de nouvelles recettes simples ce soir là. Celle-ci était notre première.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TUors1PWObI/AAAAAAAAIAQ/WlL6GR6XlTo/s1600/January+journal+2011-9.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="236" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TUors1PWObI/AAAAAAAAIAQ/WlL6GR6XlTo/s320/January+journal+2011-9.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;Finally, as I was working on my painting last week, I did the same thing in my art journal. It will probably stay this way even if the painting itself evolves but that's ok because I like this background.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #134f5c; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Finalement, quand je travaillais sur ma peinture la semaine passée, je faisais la même chose dans mon journal artistique. Celui-ci restera probablement ainsi même si la peinture elle-même évolue mais c'est correct parce que j'aime ce fond.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I hope you enjoyed this glimpse into my journal and some of my thoughts. As always, if you have any questions, feel free to ask them in the comments and I'll answer you as soon as possible.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #134f5c; text-align: center;"&gt; &lt;i&gt;J'espère que vous avez apprécié cet apperçu dans mon journal et certaines de mes pensées. Comme toujours, si vous avez des questions, ne vous gênez pas pour les poser dans les commentaires et je vous répondrai le plus vite possible.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-1370449436765001783?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/1370449436765001783/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=1370449436765001783' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/1370449436765001783'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/1370449436765001783'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/02/more-january-pages-plus-de-pages-de.html' title='More January pages - Plus de pages de Janvier'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TUorkvOqq3I/AAAAAAAAIAA/tITYKhcOExI/s72-c/January+journal+2011-5.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-3308162686357777388</id><published>2011-02-02T08:00:00.008-05:00</published><updated>2011-02-02T08:00:18.064-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='journal de janvier'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mixed media'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='multimédia'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='january journal'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='collage'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='journal artistique'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art journal'/><title type='text'>January Journal - Journal de Janvier</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;A few pages from my January journal.

Here, a mandala I had coloured and the other page, which is hidden by an added flap (private journaling), was something from a Wiccan website. I also used my latest carved stamps and stitched a piece of cardstock.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #134f5c; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;J'ai pris des pages imprimées dues pour le recyclage pour faire certaines pages. Ici, un mandala que j'avais colorié et l'autre page, cachée par un panneau rajouté (écriture privée), était quelque chose d'un site sur la Wicca. J'ai aussi utilisé mes dernières étampes gravées et cousu un morceau de papier décoratif.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TUjlk7fCH5I/AAAAAAAAH_4/n31KlOl4H6k/s1600/January+journal+2011-3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="233" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TUjlk7fCH5I/AAAAAAAAH_4/n31KlOl4H6k/s320/January+journal+2011-3.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;My mother gave me some new paper to play with so I tested a few mediums on it.

Pour ceux et celles qui ne connaissent pas l'événement One World One Heart, cliquez sur l'image ci-dessus. Pour ceux et celles qui arrivent du blogue OWOH, salutations!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;My name is Sophie and I live in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. I consider myself an artist and crafter though I do have another job as a childcare educator to help pay the bills. I enjoy many forms of arts and crafts as can be seen while visiting my blog (art journaling, drawing, stitching, embroidery, restyling, painting, photography and so on.) I live with a very bossy cat who goes by the name of Diesel. She's my furry baby and I love her to bits! I've been writing this blog for 4 years now and this is my 3rd time participating in OWOH. I'm looking forward to all the new blogs this event will help me discover.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Mon nom est Sophie et je vis à Montréal, Québec, Canada. Je me considère comme une artiste et artisanne même si j'ai un autre travail comme éducatrice en service de garde pour aider à payer les factures. J'aime plusieurs formes d'art et d'artisanat comme vous pouvez le voir sur mon blogue (journal artistique, dessin, couture, broderie, restyler, peindre, photographie et bien plus.) Je vis avec une chatte autoritaire qui se nomme Diesel. Elle est mon bébé poilu et je l'aime à mourrir! J'ai commencé ce blogue il y a 4 ans déjà et c'est ma 3e participation à OWOH. J'ai hâte de découvrir plein de nouveaux blogues grâce à cet événement.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TQWLy2bFr_I/AAAAAAAAHY0/2oaBSTsy3w0/s1600/Linked+notebooks.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TQWLy2bFr_I/AAAAAAAAHY0/2oaBSTsy3w0/s320/Linked+notebooks.JPG" width="251" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Now, on to the giveaway portion of this event...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I am offering &lt;b&gt;one&lt;/b&gt; (1) prize this year.

I'm not ready to buy new clothes so I've started wearing belts with my pants. I have a wide one made with a recycled seat-belt buckle from a Viper that my mother gave me for Christmas but I needed a skinnier one for these black pants. I decided to use a leopard print scarf I never wear and a small metal buckle I took from an old bag from the thrift shop. A bit of braiding and sewing later, I now have a cute skinny belt. And I kind of like the bit of fraying happening on it.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;J'ai perdu un peu de poids ces derniers mois alors tous mes vêtements sont un peu trop grands. Je ne suis pas prête à refaire ma garde-robe alors j'ai commencé à porter des ceintures avec mes pantalons. J'en ai une large fait avec la boucle recyclée d'une ceinture de Viper que ma mère m'a donnée à Noël mais j'en avais besoin d'une plus mince pour ces pantalons noirs. J'ai décidé de prendre un foulard à imprimé léopard que je ne porte jamais et la petite boucle de métal que j'ai pris d'un vieux sac acheté dans une friperie. Un peu de tressafe et de couture plus tard, j'ai maintenant une jolie ceinture étroite. Et j'aime même l'effilochage qui se produit.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-5810918042251726608?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/5810918042251726608/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=5810918042251726608' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/5810918042251726608'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/5810918042251726608'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/01/project-restyle-4.html' title='Project ReStyle #4'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TUYWJHpWjzI/AAAAAAAAH-E/WQj9UBsDUn8/s72-c/Project+ReStyle+%25234.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-1381866886604048306</id><published>2011-01-28T08:00:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-01-28T08:00:22.685-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='collage'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='projet en cours'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='acrylic paint'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='peinture'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='painting'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='work in progress'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='peinture acrylique'/><title type='text'>WIP Painting - PEC Peinture</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TUI5h1T0oMI/AAAAAAAAH80/yOMM_URVolI/s1600/Painting+WIP.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TUI5h1T0oMI/AAAAAAAAH80/yOMM_URVolI/s400/Painting+WIP.JPG" width="397" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;It had been so long since I'd done an actual painting that I was a bit intimidated by the blank canvas. So I started by collaging pieces of paper. I applied some Light Modeling Paste (gel medium) and let it dry for a few hours. Then, a coat of clear gesso, a coat of Glazing Medium with orange acrylic paint and, finally, I sprayed some pink shimmer mist that I let drip down the canvas. I don't know where this is going from here but I did have fun playing this way.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Il y avait un bout de temps que je n'avais peint alors j'étais un peu intimidée par le canvas nu. Alors j'ai commencé par collager des morceaux de papier. J'ai appliqué un peu de Mortier de Structure Souple (médium gel) que j'ai laissé sécher quelques heures. Puis, une couche de gesso transparent, une couche de&amp;nbsp; Médium pour Glacis avec de l'acrylique orange et, finalement, j'ai vaporiser du shimmer mist rose que j'ai laissé dégouliner le long du canvas. Je ne sais pas quelle direction je prendrais avec ceci mais j'ai eu du plaisir à jouer de cette façon.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-1381866886604048306?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/1381866886604048306/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=1381866886604048306' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/1381866886604048306'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/1381866886604048306'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/01/wip-painting-pec-peinture.html' title='WIP Painting - PEC Peinture'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TUI5h1T0oMI/AAAAAAAAH80/yOMM_URVolI/s72-c/Painting+WIP.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-6593221693281490822</id><published>2011-01-27T08:00:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-01-27T08:00:15.654-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='hair accessories'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='accessoires cheveux'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='handmade'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fait à la main'/><title type='text'>Ribbon headband - Ruban bandeau</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TUDu7fESqyI/AAAAAAAAH8M/HZtq9GQDmgc/s1600/Ribbon+headband.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TUDu7fESqyI/AAAAAAAAH8M/HZtq9GQDmgc/s320/Ribbon+headband.JPG" width="319" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I've seen so many people showing their handmade hair accessories online that I was inspired to try making mine as well. For the first one, I used some ribbon, a boring hair band (hidden under my hair), a button and some felt + embroidery floss to make feathers. Quick and easy to do! So much so that I think I'll make more with all my favourite ribbons!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;J'ai vu tellement de gens montrer leurs accessoires pour cheveux faits à la main sur l'internet que j'ai été inspirée d'essayer de m'en faire aussi.

Sometimes, it's just a bit of writing, other times it's a collage. Last night, I cut two snowflakes and used them as stencils to spray homemade shimmer mist. On the other page, I simply glued down an image from my stash. I had stamped the swirls on the page when I assembled the book. At the end of the month, I'll show you my favourite pages from this journal.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Pour 2011, j'ai décidé d'avoir un petit journal artistique fait à la main pour chaque mois. Parfois, c'est juste un peu d'écriture, d'autres fois c'est un collage. Hier soir, j'ai découpé deux flocons que j'ai utilisés comme pochoirs pour vaporiser du "shimmer mist" fait maison. Sur l'autre page, j'ai simplement collé une image de ma réserve. J'avais étampé les spirales sur la page lorsque j'ai assemblé le livre. À la fin du mois, je vous montrerai mes pages préférées dans ce journal.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-1248039165700313091?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/1248039165700313091/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=1248039165700313091' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/1248039165700313091'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/1248039165700313091'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/01/right-now-i-dream-presentement-je-reve.html' title='Right now, I dream - Présentement, je rêve'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TT5NK6_YdDI/AAAAAAAAH6Y/k5maSsMoXhA/s72-c/Right+now%252C+i+dream.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-7430803418359976012</id><published>2011-01-24T08:00:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-01-24T08:00:09.159-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='reutiliser'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='necklace'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='project restyle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='collier'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='upcycling'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='reusing'/><title type='text'>Project ReStyle #3</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TTz9AqjPOoI/AAAAAAAAH5g/SQRHM6XlUDo/s1600/Project+ReStyle+%25233.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="200" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TTz9AqjPOoI/AAAAAAAAH5g/SQRHM6XlUDo/s400/Project+ReStyle+%25233.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Last year, I started reusing some knee-high socks I was no longer wearing. I made an &lt;a href="http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2010/08/march-creature-completed-la-creature-de.html"&gt;octopus&lt;/a&gt; and a &lt;a href="http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2010/06/sock-snake-serpent-chaussette.html"&gt;snake&lt;/a&gt; with a sock from each pair and still had pieces leftover from those projects. So this weekend, I decided to use some of them. I made a necklace inspired by this &lt;a href="http://pm-betweenthelines.blogspot.com/2011/01/first-tutorial-of-2011.html"&gt;tutorial&lt;/a&gt;. It wasn't difficult to make though the stuffing + knotting was tricky at time. I like my new colourful and unique necklace.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;L'année dernière, j'ai commencé à réutiliser des bas aux genoux que je portais plus. J'ai fait une &lt;a href="http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2010/08/march-creature-completed-la-creature-de.html"&gt;pieuvre&lt;/a&gt; et un &lt;a href="http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2010/06/sock-snake-serpent-chaussette.html"&gt;serpent&lt;/a&gt; avec un bas de chaque paire et il me restait encore des morceaux de ces projets. Alors en fin de semaine, j'ai décidé de m'en servir. J'ai fait un collier inspiré de ce &lt;a href="http://pm-betweenthelines.blogspot.com/2011/01/first-tutorial-of-2011.html"&gt;tutoriel&lt;/a&gt;. Ce n'était pas difficile à faire mais le rembourrage + les noeuds étaient parfois difficile. J'aime mon nouveau collier coloré et unique.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-7430803418359976012?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/7430803418359976012/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=7430803418359976012' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/7430803418359976012'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/7430803418359976012'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/01/project-restyle-3.html' title='Project ReStyle #3'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TTz9AqjPOoI/AAAAAAAAH5g/SQRHM6XlUDo/s72-c/Project+ReStyle+%25233.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-1307726943223164813</id><published>2011-01-21T08:00:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2011-01-21T08:00:01.627-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='creative experiment'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tammy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='daisy yellow'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='expérience créative'/><title type='text'>Creative Experiment: Mirror writing - Écriture miroir</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TTkRmn5RBNI/AAAAAAAAH44/PJoATU-bQ4g/s1600/Mirror+writing.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TTkRmn5RBNI/AAAAAAAAH44/PJoATU-bQ4g/s400/Mirror+writing.jpg" width="272" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Remember Tammy's &lt;a href="http://daisyyellow.squarespace.com/vividlife/creative-experiments-2011rev1.html"&gt;Creative Experiments&lt;/a&gt;?

The first one is about being French Canadian (Québécoise.) The second one is about my love of writing. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Aujourd'hui, je vous montre deux pages de mon journal pour le Sketchbook Project. La première est sur le fait d'être Québécoise. La deuxième est sur ma passion pour l'écriture.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TTTd34G4PQI/AAAAAAAAH2k/SNjdt7igLRs/s1600/Sketchbook+Project+French+Canadian.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="340" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TTTd34G4PQI/AAAAAAAAH2k/SNjdt7igLRs/s400/Sketchbook+Project+French+Canadian.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Below, you can see two stamps I carved myself: the pencil (which I showed last week on the cover) and a pen. I like the way they both came out. And they were both done especially for this page so not a lot of thought went into them. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Ci-bas, vous pouvez voir deux étampes que j'ai gravées moi-même: le crayon à mine (que j'ai montré la semaine dernière sur la couverture) et un stylo. J'aime ce qu'elles ont donné. Et elles ont toutes deux été faites spécialement pour cette page alors je n'y pas pensé longtemps avant l'exécution.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TTTd60K0pbI/AAAAAAAAH2o/69mnjJAwEeU/s1600/Sketchbook+Project+Writer.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="331" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TTTd60K0pbI/AAAAAAAAH2o/69mnjJAwEeU/s400/Sketchbook+Project+Writer.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Because I was running out of time to finish my journal, I stitched more pages together in the second half of it. And on some pages, it added that little something extra.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Parce que je manquais de temps pour finir mon journal, j'ai cousu ensemble plus de pages dans la deuxième moitié. Et pour certaines pages, ça ajoutait un petit extra.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-4624179327080110894?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/4624179327080110894/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=4624179327080110894' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/4624179327080110894'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/4624179327080110894'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/01/sketchbook-project-update-mise-jour.html' title='Sketchbook Project Update - Mise à jour'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TTTd34G4PQI/AAAAAAAAH2k/SNjdt7igLRs/s72-c/Sketchbook+Project+French+Canadian.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-1753781278380338121</id><published>2011-01-17T08:00:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-01-17T08:00:08.658-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='reutiliser'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='project restyle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='recycled clothes'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='vêtements altérés'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='handmade'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='upcycling'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='reusing'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fait à la main'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='altered clothes'/><title type='text'>Project ReStyle #2</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TTNmd0YHJVI/AAAAAAAAH1k/uFkXNsfKHmU/s1600/Project+ReStyle+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TTNmd0YHJVI/AAAAAAAAH1k/uFkXNsfKHmU/s400/Project+ReStyle+2.jpg" width="233" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;My second ReStyle of the year: a headband made with the "turtle neck" part of the old sweater.

I didn't really know what I was doing but I kept doing it anyway. There are days when I wonder if I do know, even now, what I'm doing. But I keep doing it. Because I enjoy it. Because I consider a lot of you, if not most of you, to be my friends. Because I can share my creativity with the world.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Today also marks the mailing of my Sketchbook to New York for the Sketchbook Project. Above is a photo of the cover. I decided to keep it simple. A bit of paint, a piece of paper with the title stamped on it and a hand-carved stamp of a pencil (which I actually carved last night!) I'll show the pages in another post... or two...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;In the meantime, I wish you all a wonderful weekend filled with love and laughter.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Il y a 4 ans, j'ai commencé ce blogue. Je ne savais pas ce que je faisais mais j'ai tout de même continué. Certains jours, je me demande encore si je sais ce que je fais. Mais je continue tout de même. Parce que j'aime ça. Parce que je considère plusieurs d'entre vous, sinon la plupart, comme des amies. Parce que je peux partager ma créativité avec le monde entier.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Aujourd'hui marque aussi l'envoi de mon Sketchbook à New York pour le Sketchbook Project. Ci-haut, une photo de la couverture. J'ai décidé de garder ça simple. Un peu de peinture, un morceau de papier avec le titre étampé dessus et une étampe d'un crayon gravée à la main (que j'ai gravée hier soir en fait!) Je vous montrerai les pages dans un autre article... ou deux...&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;En attendant, je vous souhaite une fin de semaine merveilleuse, remplie d'amour et de rires.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-7532255814966876120?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/7532255814966876120/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=7532255814966876120' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/7532255814966876120'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/7532255814966876120'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/01/4-years-4-annees.html' title='4 years - 4 années'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TS_aDmpbXxI/AAAAAAAAH0Q/pJ30zxsrbD8/s72-c/Sketchbook+project+Cover.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965089099819538292.post-7054227882437806228</id><published>2011-01-13T08:00:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-01-13T08:00:08.441-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mandala'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='drawing'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='dessin'/><title type='text'>Mandala Alien Flower - Fleur extraterrestre</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TS5x6i_d9GI/AAAAAAAAH0A/b9fP9r2KA7U/s1600/Mandala+Alien+flower.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TS5x6i_d9GI/AAAAAAAAH0A/b9fP9r2KA7U/s400/Mandala+Alien+flower.jpg" width="398" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Drawn with a 01 Micron pen.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #134f5c;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Dessiné avec un feutre Micron 01.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8965089099819538292-7054227882437806228?l=misskoolaid.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/feeds/7054227882437806228/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8965089099819538292&amp;postID=7054227882437806228' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/7054227882437806228'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965089099819538292/posts/default/7054227882437806228'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://misskoolaid.blogspot.com/2011/01/mandala-alien-flower-fleur.html' title='Mandala Alien Flower - Fleur extraterrestre'/><author><name>MissKoolAid</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18368852269431661877</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TGVhcMfi66I/AAAAAAAAGLI/W0Bubb8jy7k/S220/Spiral+head+scarf.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9ToBRXcmAAc/TS5x6i_d9GI/AAAAAAAAH0A/b9fP9r2KA7U/s72-c/Mandala+Alien+flower.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry></feed>
