Cherish by Sabrina Turpin

Hello Chipboard Fans!

It is time for me to reveal my layout for June, and I've got a spicy and spiky one for you guys this time around! I found these amazing cactus chipboards which reminded me of hot, sandy dunes and I knew exactly which picture they would fit perfectly with. Thus, I present you my "Cherish" layout, featuring my son and daughter standing hand-in-hand at the beach, feet in the sand, marveling at the infinite ocean in front of them.

For the "Mini Hexagon Clump", I used red pigment ink, applied as a paint. For the "Frame Jenna", I first inked it with a red ink, then applied a gold embossing ink.

I simply painted the "Cherish Loopy Font" title with a black matte paint. 

Finally, for the awesome "Cactus Set", I applied some yellow and lime metallic paste paints and drew some additional details with green, yellow and brown dye ink pencils. Then I inked the border with black ink.

I worked with the following chipboards:

Mini Hexagon Clump MB015

Cactus Set M00733

Frame Jenna FR0079

Cherish Loopy Font W00074

I completed this layout as a guest designer for the case file #256 CSI: Color,Stories, Inspiration because 2Crafty is a sponsor this month.

I hope this layout gave you a few ideas for your own creations! I'll be back soon with more inspirations.

Handsome Little Man Layout by Bec Genet

Hi everyone. Today I have my second 2Crafty layout for June to share with you.

Now that I have a boy to scrap I'm trying to do more masculine layouts, although I still add a lot of flowers lol. So here is my take on a "boy" page.

The 2Crafty Chipboard I used was:

Handsome Little Man Title

Messy Squares

Steampunk Gears Small

Steampunk Gears Medium

Sequin Negative Bits

I started my background by using Silver and White pastes through a couple of different stencils, then adding some black stamping

I used the 2 largest sized Messy Squares, the larger one I coloured with Prima Acrylic Sparks Paint in Mermaid Sparkle and the medium size in Prima Acrylic Metallic Paint Sliver Spoon. I placed these under my photo

I used 2 pieces from the Sequin Negative Bits and coloured them with Prima Acrylic Sparks paint in Unicorn's Hair. I also used the Prima paints in Sliver Spoon and Steampunk Copper to colour the Small and Medium Steampunk Gears. 

On the Handsome Little Man title I used white embossing powder.

I finshed of my layout by embellishing with flowers and leaves. 

Thanks for visiting

'Fun in the Sun' Boy Scrapbook Page By Kripa

Its been two wet, cold weeks in Sydney.

That probably explains why I chose to make a layout using the sun.

The layout concept was inspired by 2crafty chipboard pieces:

Dancing Suns and the title chipboard Fun in the Sun.

"Fun In the Sun"

All the chipboard pieces were first coated with a layer of white gesso. Once dry, I applied Colourarte Silks using a palette knife on the Polaroid Frames & Dancing Sun. Let the paint dry for a minute then drag the paint again using the palette knife. This left some beautiful texture and just enough grunge. Dry brush a very tiny amount of white to tone down the shiny paint.

For the title piece, I wanted the word 'Sun' to stand out. So it was coloured using an orange ink pad. The word 'Fun' was painted on with Colourarte Silks & outlined with a white Posco pen.

2crafty chipboard used:

* Dancing Suns

* Title: Fun in the Sun

* Polaroid Assorted frames

Thank you for stopping by today.

Happy creating,

Kripa



June Inspiration with Elena Martynova

Hello my dear friends!!
Today my layout was made for the CSI case file #255 which 2Crafty chipboard
is sponsoring this month. Check out the CSI challenge HERE

 I like to make projects with several photos, you can play with their
location and make the composition more lively and dynamic!

I used some different colours of sprays Lindy's to colour the background paper and also
 added some texture with a stencil and texture paste and did a little stamping as well.

All the chippies were painted with gesso first and then I  used a spray.
 You can see the list of chippboard I used at the end of the post.
  I really love how they look on my composition.

"Happy" by Kareen Dion

Hello everyone!

Today it is a very special day.

It is my last publication as a DT member for 2Crafty.

It has been a very wonderful adventure and I'm really grateful for this amazing opportunity.

So for my very last publication, I made a simple layout, very feminine.

I used the Flower Doilies, Bunch of Roses and the title Happy from the

Friendship Mini Word Set.

"Happy"

I embossed the Flower Doilies with white embossing powder.

The Happy title from the Friendship Mini Word Set

is also embossed with white embossing powder.

The Bunch of Roses are also embossed with white embossing powder.

2Crafty Chipboards used : 

- Bunch of Roses

- Friendship Mini Word Set

- Flower Doilies

Thank you again for everything,

I will miss you!!

Capture the Moment with Lisa Amiet

Hello 2Crafty Fans!

It's Lisa here today to share some inspiration with you. 

My latest creation is featuring a photo of my children and I.

It started as a pic of my daughter and I, and we were photo bombed,

 quite perfectly, by my son! 

It was the perfect capture. 

Anybody that know me, know I LOVE a black background.... 

and it makes my chipboard stand out and shine!

So, for this layout I have used a number of the 'View Finder' chipboard pieces, 

these come in different sizes so are awesome for layering.

I have finished my 'View Finders' in white gesso, which gives a great matte finish.

I have then used watercolours to partially colour them in colours to co-ordinate with my papers.

I have layered some in my paper layers.

I have also used one of the 'Assorted Mini Camera Set' and one of

 the 'Assorted Arrows'.  I have embossed these in white.

Finally I have used 'Capture the Moment' as my title,

which I have also embossed in white. I love how it pops off the black background.

I hope you like what I have created. 

I'll be back very soon with some more inspiration.
