CELEBRATE Winter by Robin Schelin

Hi everyone!
 So glad you could stop by.

As most of you know, I live in Colorado. We are no strangers to snow....a LOT of snow!
It will be like this for the next few months. I know my Aussie friends are enjoying summer (not gonna lie, a little jealous), but winter really is beautiful here. The kids love it!

"CELEBRATE Winter"

2Crafty used:

Iron Fence

Winter Wonderland

Fine Flower Adornment Set

Lacey Border Set 1

As always, Gesso those wonderful chippies!

I cut the Iron Fence in half and used the bottom half at the top of the layout. I painted it with Neutral Gray and Black Acrylic Paint. 

I then placed one of the borders from the Lacey Border Set 1 over the bottom covering the cut fence. I painted that with Cadmium Red Medium Hue Acrylic Paint.

Here is the bottom of the layout where I used the top half of the cut Iron Fence and The same border from the Lacey Border Set 1. These were painted the same as the as the fence and border up top.

I cut up the Fine Flower Adornment Set and just used the leaves and stems to add a pop of black. These were painted with Black Acrylic Paint.

Here are more pieces of the Fine Flower Adornment Set on the other side to create balance.

For the title, I cut the word 'Winter' from Winter Wonderland. This was painted with Black Acrylic Paint. I originally wanted to use the whole title, but it didn't fit well in the space. That's one of the great things about 2Crafty Chipboard, you can cut it up and customize it for whatever you need.

I hope you like this layout.
This is going to be my reality for a while, so why not scrap about it!
 See you in a few weeks with more fun in the snow!

"precious" Layout by Marie Sabatier

 Hello everyone, 

Here is my first inspiration for this new year of creativity!

    I was lucky enough to receive a gift of a photo shoot to do with my grandchildren.

A great moment of happiness and laughter that we shared together.

"precious"

The chipboard used:

precious-loopy-font

me-my-grandma-title

12-x-12-clock-face-frames

magnolia-stems

foliage-set-11

     

I started by applying a coat of white gesso to each chipboard.

I used my favorite chipboard "Clock Face Frames". 

Then I added Lindy's Gang embossing powder in the shade 'Golden Angel Wings' and finished using  "Bronze Age" wax.

I also used "Bronze Age" wax for the word "precious".

I love this typography.

    In the same way, I rub the phrase "Me & My Grandma" with "Bronze Age" wax.

I position it partially on my photo.

    Here I create a cluster of embellishments or insert "Foliage Set 11" leaves.

On the ends, I add “Terra Cotta Rust” colored embossing powder.

The "magnolia stems" chipboard was also enhanced with embossing powder.

I did not heat the powder precisely to obtain a "mixed media" effect.

Finally, I add white gesso stains.

I hope this presentation gives you some inspiration.

Thank you for your visit!

Happiness is this Moment by Tania Ridgwell

Hi there!

Tania joining you today to share the last of my DT projects for January. 

 I have created a layout. 

"Happiness is this Moment"

2 Crafty Chipboard Used:

*Large Berry Stem

*Happiness is this Moment Title

*12" Parisian Border

*Amelia's Frames

I have used the gorgeous 49 & Market 'Moonlit Garden' Collection to create the base for my layout. 

I first gave all the chippies a light coat of Golden Glow Opal Polish.  Once dry I dabbed on Summer Sky Opal Polish and Heidi Swapp Chartreuse Color Shine Spray to the Parisian Border chippie.  I did the same to the Amelia's Frame chippies but used the Heidi Swapp Chartreuse Color Shine Spray only.  I gave the Happiness is this Moment Title chippie a light spray of the Color Shine Spray also.

I added a paper doily and some torn paper layers under my photo.  I used the Amelia's frames chippies around my photo and added lots of paper blooms.  I cut up the Parisian Border chippie and tucked in pieces amongst the paper layers.  I did the same with the Large Berry Stem chippie and tucked pieces into the paper blooms.  To finish of my layout I cut the "Happiness" from the chippie title and added this above my photo and the remainder "Is this Moment" from the title I added along the bottom of the flowers.

Thats' all from me today, I hope I have inspired you all with my Layout.  Until next time thanks so much for stopping by.

Tranquil Momentsby Robin Schelin

 Hi everyone. Welcome back to the blog. I'm happy to share with you my first layout of the year.

Well, now that the Holidays are over, and we all survived, it's time to relax. Maybe in a quiet corner with a yummy cup of coffee! 

"Tranquil Moments"

Chipboard I used:

Lattice Leaves

Tranquil Moments

Filmstrips Small

I am a big fan of using Gesso on the chipboard, but on this layout I only used Gesso on the title.

 

I  cut one of the Filmstrips Small in half and used them to create a long one running down the center in back of the photo. I placed them in the center of an acetate filmstrip that I also cut in half. I think using the acetate highlights the chipboard filmstrip. Because of the beige colors of her clothes, I left the chipboard filmstrip raw trying to pick up on those colors.

Here is the bottom of the photo with the other half of the Filmstrip Small.

I tucked in a few Lattice Leaves on the right side under the flowers and left them raw as well.

More Lattice Leaves on the left just to balance with the right side. For the title Tranquil Moments, I first covered it with White Gesso, then painted it with White Acrylic Paint. 

I hope you like this, and that this has prompted you to take some time for yourself and find a quiet place to unwind. Truth be told, I have a place that I go to for this very thing. Quite frequently!!

Until next time

"A Precious Moment" Layout with Amy Voorthuis

Goodmorning lovely 2Crafty friends, 
Thank you so much for taking the time to visit the 2Crafty blog, I hope I can inspire you with my layout to take out your lovely 2Crafty Chipboard and have some fun. For today I have a cute baby layout - one I made for my ex-colleague, she had a baby boy in June and she always loves my work so she asked me to make her a layout and so I did. 

A Precious Moment

Gorgeous 2Crafty Chipboard used: 
Thin Square Stacked Frames
Mini Buttons
Loopy Heart Swirl
A Moment With You
Beaded Hanging Heart Set
Fine Word Set 2
Funky Heart Swirls
Corner Annalise
Baby's Clothesline
2024's

Oh my gosh how I love the aqua/alcohol markers it's so easy to add them to your chipboards that it takes a hour less creating. You can add it to just raw chipboards or chipboards treated with gesso. It just makes it a lot easier. 

So all the chipboard pieces are treated with the markers to match the colors of my papers. I have used some soft tones like yellows, greens, browns & white. As most of you maybe know I love to cut up phrases and add words to it I also did that here. 

 Hope you all enjoyed my post thank you so much for stopping by, I will be back with another project soon hope to see you back then....

"Your Smile" By Di Garling

Hi there 2Crafty friends, thanks so much for stopping by.

Today I have another layout to share & it features one of my beautiful 

granddaughters, & naturally I have used some great pieces of 2Crafty chipboard.

 

2Crafty Chipboard used…

6x6 Clockface Frames

Window Shutter Set #1

“Your Smile is the Best” - title trimmed

Bush Nut Set

Here you can see I have used the “Clockface Frames Set #1”
to frame my photo.  I have overlaid it over one of the
“6” Clockface Frames”,
both of which I have simply painted white & I 
added a touch on brown ink.

For my title I have trimmed the “You are My Sunshine” & I have simply

used the “Your Smile” portion. I have also used a couple of pieces of the

“Nut Bush Stems”, both of which I have painted in an olive green acrylic paint.

Well that is all I have for you today.

Until next time…
