'Explore, Dream, Discover' with Lisa Amiet

 
Hello 2Crafty lovers!
It's Lisa here today to share my latest creation with you. 

Explore, Dream, Discover

 

 

2Crafty products used:

 

'Explore, Dream, Discover Title'
'Mini Dotty Bits'

'Steampunk Chain Clock Cluster'
'Steampunk Gears Small'

'Steampunk Gears Medium'

For this layout, I have used a black background,
as I really wanted the colours to pop on this layout.  

So I first got to splashing some colour around ;)

 

 

I have used one of the 'Steampunk Chain Clock Cluster',
that I have finished in an ombre
of bright yellow, green and blue paints.

 

 

I have also used quite a few of the 'Dotty Bits',
that I have also finished the same way. 

And a couple finished in black near the clock.

 

 

I also used one of the 'Steampunk Gears Small',
and one of the 'Steampunk Gears Medium',

both finished in the same colours
as the clock and layered for dimension.

 

 

To finish, I used the 'Explore, Dream, Discover Title',

again finished in the same ombre yellow, green and blue.

 

 

I really love how this layout turned out,
I was hoping to mirror the neon colours in my photo onto my chipboard.
I think it worked out :)

I hope that you like it too.

 

Until next time!

You Have My Whole Heart by Robin Schelin

 Hi everyone, welcome to the blog. 

Today I'm sharing a simple little layout using one of my favorite color combos. 

You Have My Whole Heart

2Crafty goodness I used:

Foliage Set 12

Lattice Heart Set

Valentines Hearts

You Have My Whole Heart

As always, a good coating of gesso before altering the chippies!

I placed one of the little foliage pieces from the Foliage Set 12 under the flowers at the left of the photo. I painted it with a mix of Neutral Gray and White Acrylic Paint. 

I painted it gray to play off the gray flowers and because the post in the photo is gray.  (Made you look, lol) I know I may be picky, but I try to incorporate some of the colors that are in the photo when choosing the embellishment colors. No matter how subtle. And even through there is no blue in the photo, I think this color combo works because the colors of the embellies on either side of the photo brings it together. 

Here is another piece of the Foliage set 12 at the upper right of the photo, also painted with a mix of Neutral Gray and White Acrylic Paint.

The title is stacked with three chipboard pieces. 

On the bottom is the insert from the Lattice Heart set. I painted it with a blend of Brilliant Yellow Green and Unbleached Titanium Acrylic Paint. I wanted this to be the anchor of the title and be the same color as the green on the paper.

On top of the heart, I placed one of the Valentines Hearts. I cut the little swirls off from inside the heart and painted it with a mixture of Neutral Gray, Viridian, Turquoise Green and White Acrylic Paint. This is to match the blue on the paper.

Then lastly, I placed the sentiment, You Have My Whole Heart, on top of all of that. I wanted it to be easily seen, contrasting nicely against the colors. I kind of swiped over "You Have My Whole" with a light coating of white gesso and left it at that, because it looks gray like the Foliage Set 12 pieces. Then I painted "Heart" with White Acrylic Paint. 

Hope you like this and that it inspires you. I'll be back in a couple weeks with more 2Crafty awesomeness. 

Until then xx

"Mother & Daughter"Layout By Di Garling

 Hello there, welcome to the 2Crafty blog.

Today I have another new layout to share with you & it features

some more of the NEW RELEASE 2Crafty chipboard pieces !!!

I just looove the new releases & I am sure you will too. 💖💖💖

2Crafty Chipboard Products Used...
"Wavy Filmstrip Border"
"Foliage Set #14"
"Mother & Daughter"- title
ATC "Tiny Hearts & Stars"
ATC "Funky Hearts

I think the star chipboard piece of my page would definitely

have to be the NEW "Wavy Filmstrip Border", it is such an 

awesome chipboard piece & the best thing about it is that

accomodates four photos !!!

Although I could have just used two 6"x 4" portrait photos

if I wanted too. I think that would have worked well also !! 

I just adore this NEW title, "Mother & Daughter".

I mean who doesn't have photos that would work well

with a "Mother Daughter" theme !!!

In the photo above you can see I have used some of the NEW 

"Foliage Set #14" pieces throughout my flower clusters.

I think they are the perfect accompaniment to all the flowers.

I finished off my layout with a sprinkling of two different

sorts of chippie hearts, both the "Tiny ATC Hearts" as well

one of the "ATC Funky Hearts"amongst my flowers.

I am also releasing this page as a KIT.

Good Times - Laura Gilhuly

 Hi everyone!

Creating simple and multi photo layouts are a great way to record fun memories with friends!  

2Crafty Products Used;

Seaweed Set 1
Line Words - Good Times
Harlequin Clumps
Anchor and Buoy Set

We had such a good time that day so the title piece was perfect!  I inked and heat embossed the title!

After inking the seashells I added a bit of copper paint

The anchor and wheel were perfect accents for a layout about spending the day on the water

I wanted to keep the layout fun and watery so when I painted the banners and used dimensional paint!

thanks for stopping by

 

Love By Charmane Sharp

 

My girls loving on each other is so precious. I had to scrapbook these

memories as its a regular occurrence in my home that I love witnessing.

Love is a wonderful thing no matter who its shared between.

2Crafty Chipboard used...

11' Revolution Circle 

Foliage set 8

Decorative Doily

Photo adornment-Cassie Flourish

Brick Panel

Title- Love Fancy

Finishing the title with Glossy Accents gives it a lovely sheen to pop

off the bottom of my layout, after painting with Saltwater Taffy Distress.

Then diluting with Picket Fence Distress for an Ombre finish.

Applied the same finish to the Decorative Doily going dark to lighter

on the outside and finished with a coat of Glossy Accents.

Gesso coating on the Brick Panel wasn't white enough so I painted 

some White Acrylic paint on top. Tucking it all around my layout

brings the feeling of home in.

The Foliage set was painted with Saltwater Taffy and lighten with

Picket Fence for the stems adding a pop of colour to my clusters.

By placing two Cassie Flourishes on either side of the Revolution 

Circle adds femininity and softness. A mix of Worn Lipstick and

Tattered Rose Oxide inks were rubbed on the Circle. On the Flourishes

I applied Worn Lipstick lightened with Picket Fence and then added

some Tattered Rose. Finished with a coat of Glossy Accents.

Until next time...

"Grandma and Me" Decorative Oval Panel with Amy Voorthuis

Hello and good morning lovely 2Crafty friends.

How wonderful of you all to stop by the blog, for today I have 10"decorative panel that I altered, 2Crafty Chipboard has bunch of them and this is my third that I worked with and I have to tell you they are absolute amazing. I made this for my aunt because it's a picture with little phoenix who sadly lost his life in September 2024. They where on a hiking trail and they had a blast here, I wanted to give her a reminder off the good times they had. 

Grandma and Me: 

Wonderful 2Crafty Chipboard used: 
10 Decorative Panel - Flourish Oval 1

Cattail Shrubs

Old Fence

Grandma and Me Title

Field Mushrooms

Frame Elouisa's

ATC Word Banner Set 1

Circle Tag Set 1

Travel Mini Word Set 2

First I started with altering the 10" decorative panel with some white gesso and white matte acrylic paint. Then I used some brown matte acrylic paint and three color waxes red, white & brown. The Elousia frame I treated with my alcohol markers in two colors red and then I used some gesso on it and some brown wax.  

The old fence was treated with two colors of brown spray ink and when that was totally dry I added a woodgrain stamp on it. The field mushroom & cattail shrubs are painted with my aqua & alcohol markers and I finished them with a brush stroke of white matte wax. 

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....

'Loving these Moments with You' with Lisa Amiet

 Hello 2Crafty lovers!
It's Lisa here today to share some scrappy goodness with you.
I created this layout to share with you.

'Loving These Moments with You'

2Crafty products used:

 

 

'Filmstrips Small'

'Funky Hearts'

'Grid Bits'

'Loving These Moments with You Title'

 

 

For this layout, I gave my background paper a grungy feel
using a variety of mixed media products. 

I also used a few pieces of the 'Grid Bits',
which I left raw to go with the natural tones of my page, 

as the base of my layers.

 

 

I then used a few of the 'Filmstrips Small',
also left raw, on either side of my photo,
building up my layers of chipboard and papers.

 

 

I also used one of the 'Funky Hearts',

on my layers, next to my photo of my son.

 

 

To finish, I used the 'Loving These Moments with You Title', 

which I have finished in a washed out multicolour blue and white finish.

I love the beachy feel to it. 

 

 

I hope that you like what I have created. 
I will be back soon with more scrappy goodness to share with you.

 

Until then

 

Lisa
