Hi there!
Welcome to my March share.
Unfortunately this is my very last post with 2 Crafty Chipboard. I have enjoyed my time on
the team for over the past 12 months or so but it is now time to move on. I have created some
of my very favourite projects using these beautiful chipboard pieces and I still have a stash
that will keep me going for a while. So I just want to take the time to thank Vanessa and Di
and all of the lovely DT girls I have got to share my time here with. 2 Crafty Chipboard
have the most gorgeous pieces going around and I am honoured I have been able to work
with them for the past 12 months.
Okay, so today I have used some of the brand new pieces.
My first creation today is of my 3 adorable boys.
"My Everything"
I have used the following 2 Crafty Chipboard pieces -
Dreamcatchers
2015's
Foliage Set
Stitched Lace Boarder
My Everything
I have layered the title piece My Everything on top of my flower cluster.
I then just applied Gesso to it.
I am absolutely in love with the Dreamcatchers. Definitely my favourite piece at the moment.
I applied Gesso to both pieces first. Then I layered them into my flowers. I wrapped some
thread around the top one and applied some Shimmerz in Tickle Me Turquoise and Ultra Marine.
I added some spots of water to give it the watercolour effect too.
I placed the Foliage up the side of my photo. Covered in Gesso and then added
Shimmerz in Tickle Me Turquoise to the bottom and Inklingz in I'm Not Limon.
I cut the Stitched Lace Boarder in half and tucked it into my layers and placed my photo
just above it. I just simply applied Gesso to it.

I also did the same for the 2015 piece but placed it flat to the layout. I love the dimension
in these pieces, it still pops off the page when you cover just the top section in paint.

My second creation today is a canvas I made for Mum. She turned 60 the other day,
so instead of making her a card I made her this 8 x 8 canvas. It is very sweet!!
'You Are Loved'
I have used the following 2 Crafty Chipboard pieces -
Lace Heart Frames
ATC - Tiny Hearts
Rose Vine Boarder
Oh my, these Lace Heart Frames are so gorgeous!! I added lots of flowers and added
the smaller frame first. I then added a few more flowers and layered the bigger frame
on top. I covered them in Gesso and applied some French Twist Inklingz to the top one.
I cut up the Rose Vine Boarder and added the pieces around my centre cluster.
I applied Gesso once again to it first and the added my Shimmerz products.
I used Spritz in Ruby and Coloringz in Pretty In Pink. Plus I then added some
more French Twist Inklingz.
I placed a few ATC - Tiny Hearts to the top left side of the canvas and some down the
bottom of the cluster. I added Gesso and some Coral Reef Inklingz and flicked on some Spritz.

I have used a couple of 2 Crafty Chipboard pieces here:
Line Words - Summer Boarders
Chevron Bits
I chopped both ends off the word Summer and added Shimmerz to the bottom of the
I stacked the Chevron Bits and pointed them down my page. I blended in the colours from the background watercolour rainbow. I used Shimmerz colours Tuscan Sun and Mango Madness.
