A Photos Day

I had to update my artist picture, for the URSA Contest first, and other sites.
My husband took them...poor him. I hate to be photographed, and on 80 pictures, only a few are ok...
but you will see the difference.
For my artist picture, I have to be an artist and with my cat Figaro, it was me with myself....LOL

And with my Figaro .... no stress at all....

My birthday and a digital page

Today is my birthday and I have been spoiled by my dear husband and my children.
For my teddy bears pictures, I received a new lighting studio and a lot of goodies and a restaurant.
I used the bedroom of my grandson because the light there is excellent ; however, I had to move my other studio because it's too dangerous with him around. The light and everything I used for my first studio.
Now I will be able to go everywhere in the house ; everything is included in the package, light, tripod.
As I told you, I'm a spoiled woman.

I would like also to show you my new scrapbook page ; Darren spent the end of the week with us and I asked him to make a Valentine Card for his Mom.
The result is here : http://chantal-chantaldigitalscrapbooking.blogspot.com/

Plume, the Candies Thief

Today my husband took funny pictures of my cat stealing candies I received in a parcel from Belgium.

She had after that a such innocent face...

I can not make teddies for the moment because I have to go to Quebec for receiving a treatment for my eye ; I have an appointment for Tuesday, August 12th ; I'm very scared to go there ; I had so upsetting news here in New Brunswick since they are treating me.
