My first 2Crafty post :)

Hi, today is my first post for 2Crafty Chipboard, I've so happy to join this amazing team for 2018.

1 Year....

My first layout is for my son's 1st birthday late last year, I can't believe he is one already!!

He's now running everywhere and getting into all sorts of mischief. 

The 2 Crafty Chipboard I used were:
Clock Face Frames 12x12
Lattice Leaves
Year in Summary Title
ATC Tiny Hearts & Stars Pack

Here is how I altered the Clock Frames

First I used a stamp with versamark to stamp randomly on the chipboard. The I used Black embossing powder on the larger clock and Aged Gold embossing powder on the smaller clock

I used Distress inks to add colour, I put Tea Dye on the large clock and Hickory Smoke on the small clock. Next I added some Vintage photo Distress ink to the edges.

Here is what they looked like finished. I treated the Tiny Stars the same as the small clock, and the Title was coloured with Aged Ivory Embossing ink. 

Papers are from the Prima French Rivera Collection, Flowers and Metals are also Prima

My second layout features my friends gorgeous baby girl

The 2 Crafty Chipboard I used:

Frame Celia's Flourish

Leafy Twig Branches

ATC Tiny Hearts & Stars Pack

Fine Word Set 2

I started by coating all the chipboard pieces in white gesso. I left the Title and Frame with just the gesso, The Tiny Hearts I coloured with Dusty Concord Distress ink and the Leafy Twigs with a Gelato in Pistachio. 

Papers from Maja Designs Vintage Spring and Enjoying the Outdoors Collections, Flowers from Prima and 49 & Market

I also altered a wooded frame to go with this layout. I used Deco Arts Weather Wood to add crackle to the frame. 

Also here is a layout I taught at Bella Paperie in the Weekend. All chipboard is from 2Crafty (Cogs Small and Large and Circle lace panel used) and Papers From Maja Design's Denim and Friends Collection

Lemoncraft layouts for Bella Paperie

Hi all. Today I have layouts to share that I made for Bella Paperie using  2 different Collections from Lemoncraft. 

First up I have a soft Delicate layout using the Gossamer Blue Collection

I have used 2Crafty chipboard on my layout. The pieces used are:

Frame Celia's Flourish

Frame Tiny Kathleens

Chicken Brabed Wire Small

Mini Word Set 1

I coloured the chicken wire chippie with a little gold gelato. The other chipboard pieces I coloured with white embossing powder. My versamark pad is old and running out of ink so the embossing powder didn't stick properly. It turns out I liked the patchy embossed look so I left it that way. 

On the background I used a stencil with thick white gesso, then I added Snow cone & Cotton Candy gelatos through a different stencil. I added some lace and pearl string for texture and then some random stamping with brown archival ink. 

I finished the layout off with lots of flowers from Prima and 49 & Market

My next layout is made using the Violet Silence collection.

I fussy cut out lots of flower images from the papers to put under my photo, then I also added gesso plus Purple & pink Gelatos through a few different stencils. 

The 2Crafty Chipboard used on this layout was:

Ada's Flourishes

Mini Word Set 1

Leafy Silhouettes

I coloured the flourishes with a dark purple gelato, the leaves with white gesso and the title Treasure with a pale purple liquid pearls.

I embellished with lots of flowers and some butterflies cut from the paper collection.

Mixed Media Canvas

Happy Sunday, this is just a very quick post to share a canvas I made with the left over scraps from the Maja Design Denim and Friends collection

I had been testing out some crackle paste on the canvas and decided I liked it so I coloured the crackled canvas with Lindys sprays. I added some gesso with a stencil and lots of stamping before I embellished this canvas with all my left over papers and flowers. 

I had some help taking my photos :D

I framed my photo with the Worn Indigo paper. 

I used 2Crafty Chipboard on this layout. The piece Parisian Border was coloured with a dark blue Gelato, then I used a gold Gelato to colour the chipboard pieces Foliage Set 1 and my title 'Family' from the Arrow Word Set 2.

Love Today Layout For Bella Paperie

Hi everyone. Today I have a layout to share that I made for Bella Paperie with papers from the Celebr8 Daydreams collection. This is a very pretty paper collection full of delicate pastel colours.

I kept my background quite basic with a little modeling paste and some pink, purple and teal sprays, although I ended up covering most of it up. The background paper is called Forever, plus I used the papers Dream and Memories to back my photo and cut out words.

I have used 2Crafty chipboard which I coloured with pink, purple and teal embossing powders. The chipboard pieces I used where the title Love Today as well as the Flower Doilies and Whispy Dandelions. 

I've used a mix of Prima, 49 & Market and Celebr8 flowers

49 and Market Rusty Autumn Collection for Bella Paperie

Happy Saturday everyone. 

Today I'm sharing 2 layouts I made with the 49 and Market Rusy Autumn collection. I LOVE 49 and Market as their papers are amazing the the flowers are to die for!

Up first is a layout of my Son

For this layout I used the paper Blooming Autumn as my background because the deep blue colour is stunning. I trimmed and distressed the edges and placed it on top of the Orchard Feast paper.

To back the photo I used the Falling Leaves and Charming papers 

To my background I used the Lindy's Gang Magical in Merci Beaucoup Mint mixed with modeling paste and I used this with a stencil.  I then added some splashes with the Lindy's Gang Sprays in Sidewalk Chalk, Shabby Turbine Teal, Tweedle Dee Denim and Steampunk Sepia followed by some stamping. 

I used the 2Crafty Chipboard title 'live everyday with intention' that I coloured with the Lindy's Gang Embossing powders Lapis Lazuli Blue Gold and King Midas Gold. I coloured the Corner Elegant Set chipboard with the Lindy's embossing powder in King Midas Gold.

I then used a mix of 49 and Market and Prima flowers to embellish.

To make the butterflies I stamped a butterfly stamp with Versamark and used the Lapis Lazuli Blue Gold embossing powder to colour them. 

Inspiration for this layout came from the gorgeous colours in the Lindy's Gang Colour Challenge for November

Lindy's Gang Products used:

Sidewalk Chalk Spray

Shabby Turbine Teal Spray

Tweedle Dee Denim Spray

Steampunk Sepia Spray

Merci Beaucoup Mint Magical from the Tres Chic Magical Set

Lapis Lazuli Blue Gold Embossing Powder

King Midas Gold Embossing Powder

Here is my next layout using the same collection.

This time I used the papers Sunflower Delight and Pumpkin Patch as my background. 

Then I used the papers Falling Leaves and Charming to back my photo and fussy cut images to add to the page. 

I've used the gorgeous 2Crafty Chipboard pieces Circle Dot Frames, Mini Flourish Bits, Leafy Shrub Set 1, and My Happy Place title. I primed all these pieces with white gesso then coloured them with Prima Colour Blooms Sprays in Gilded and Sorbet. 

Inspiration for this layout came from the More the Words November Challenge Outdoors & Woodgrain. The 49 and Market paper Sunflower Delight has a beautiful woodgrain pattern on it which I used on the top part of my layout. I used this pic of my daughter that was taken outside in our backyard with all the trees in the background. 

I used a mix of 49 and Market and Prima flowers
