This is the good life By Charmane Sharp

Mediterranean memories enjoying The Good Life together. Split the title

up for something different. Such a fresh looking layout.

2Crafty Chipboard used...

Title- This is the Good Life

Filagree Arrows

Foliage set 15

Design Elements

12x12 Clock Face Frames

The title was rubbed with wax in Blue and then some White Gold added 

randomly. It was cut into pieces to draw your eye across the layout to read

it. A Design element piece was tucked under the floral pieces. It was rubbed

with wax which highlights the Gesso sponged on texture. Foliage piece

pops on top with the bright yellow.

Second half of the title sits on a chipboard Heart that had some

printed paper glued to it and then sanded the edges.

The outer Heart pice had printed paper glued to it and the edges sanded.

Ephemera was added and then a Filagree Arrow placed across for a little

love. It was covered with White Gold wax.

The clock face in the background represents a moment in time

captured to remember forever. It has the same treatment as the title.

Another Design Elements piece ,placed under the Foliage which was

watercoloured to make them stand out on my layout. I love the bright

yellow against the blue. Papers by Mintay which are lovely and bright.

Until next time...

"Cute" Layout by Marie Sabatier

Hello everyone,

I present to you my first inspiration for this month of July.

A soft and romantic layout with a photograph of my grandson Milan.

For this layout, I opted for the use of mini-chipboards.

"Cute"

The chipboard used:

mini-word-set-3

mini-decorative-frame-set-6

mini-decorative-frame-set-7

mini-decorative-frame-set-5

mini-lattice-bits

bush-nut-floral-clusters

I'm using three separate mini frames. They're perfect for showcasing the beautiful embellishments from the "Little Dreamer" collection designed by Joanne Bain.

I start by applying a coat of white gesso. For the frame on the left, I'm using "Bronze Age" and "White Gold" waxes. I add a piece of "mini lattice bits" and the word "Cute," which are simply covered by the white gesso.

The other two frames were embellished with "Distress Oxide" inks in "vintage photo" color.

To achieve different shades, I spray them with water.

Here, I'm creating a cluster by adding these sublime "bush-nut floral clusters".

I'm using the shades "black soot" and "faded jeans".

There is no complexity in this layout. 

An assortment of exceptional products.

Good scrap to you!

Marie

Foliage Set #14
“This Face Makes My Heart Smile” - title
Geo Triangular Border

I started this layout off with a mixed media background 

& lots of lovely layers, including the photos,

all the fabulous chipboard pieces and lots of gorgeous flowers.

I have base coated the title & the border chipboards with a coat of
white gesso before finishing them off with some paints.

Next came the beautiful NEW release foliage pieces.

I simply gave them a light inking with some 

Distress Ink. Doesn't get much easier than that !!

That title, "This Face Makes My Heart Smile"

kind of says it all. The perfect title for my photos!!

I looove it. 

Well that’s all I have for you today.

I AM RELEASING THIS LAYOUT AS A KIT.
