Welcome everyone to my first post as
as a 2 Crafty DT member...I must say it's such an honour
to be working with some amazingly talented girls.
A big thank you to Vanessa and Di!
Now onto my first never seen before layout.
I have used five pieces of chipboard on this page.
Here are some close-ups of the techniques on the chippies
On the Anas Vine I inked it in black using Prima Black Coal ink
and applied Shimmerz Texturez in Gritty Graphite with my finger
and just dabbed it on lightly.
With the Rulers I just inked in Prima Attic Dust ink.
I cut the Clock in half (to use in another project)
inked in Prima Dark rust and dabbed it
intermittently with Prima Attic Dust ink.
On the Sybill Frame I used the same technique
which turns it a grey colour.
On the Title word Happy
I just inked with the same ink & just touched
up the edges with with black coal ink.
Making Faces
On my second layout I have gone for lots of distressing.
Scallop banner, 2012 and
Chicken Wire
I painted the chicken wire- white & wiped it over the mixed media
leather inx, then tucked it under the layers of papers on each edge.
I cut the Corner Arches in half then inked them with mixed media
inx in leather and I also did the 2012 in the same manner.
I then layered it on top of the Corner Arches panel.
On the Scallop Banner I embossed them with some copper
Lastly I just inked the Button, which is from a multi pack,
in the same manner as the other chippies.
Remember
My last layout is one you may have seen before
as I created it for OUAS for the April challenge.
On this one I've used 3 pieces of 2 Crafty chipboard.
I inked the Iron Fence and the 2012 in a Prima dust ink.
On the Wrought Iron I simply painted it black & rubbed
it over with some Shimmerz Texturez in gritty graphite.
Thank you for stopping by.
I hope you were inspired to use some 2 Crafty chipboard on your pages too.
Have a great day.
Lindy
