Layout and ATC's by Sandra Bernard

''You Shine''

Hi chipie fans! I'm back today with another pink layout. 

Love hibiscus flowers, so I based my project on those chipboard. 

2Crafty Chipboard Used:

Hibiscus

Sml leafy Vine

Skeleton leaves

''You Shine'' as title

I started by coloring my background with pink watercolor. Then, I put some distress ink over
 a stencil to create some interesting focal points. I stamped in grey to add more textures. 

My small leafy vines was colored with gesso, then with distress green color.
I added some glitter silver paint in some areas. 

I used two different tones or green to embossed my ''You shine'' title. 

I played with watercolor pencils to colored my hibiscus flowers. And I added
 also some yellow-green color too. 

The skeleton leaves have been colored also with gesso and distress ink green. 

'' Je me souviens''

Means ''I remember''

For my second creation, I choose to talk about my province, Quebec.
 Quebec is a french province of Canada.
In June, we celebrate our national bithday.
 That's why I created 3 ATC's about my province.

2Crafty products list:

fluer de lise ATC

Indian Feathers

Winter twig branches

folk hearts

Interlocking grid panel

I started my ATC's with modeling paste and stencil. Then I added some blue ink

 because the colors of our flag are white and blue. 

To contrast with the blue of the background, I chose to emboss my 

Interlocking grid panel and separated it in three pieces, one on each ATC.

My three ATC's are decorated with a fluer de lise which is our emblem and present on our flag too. 

A folk heart is present also on each one to show you my love for my province.

The first one is decorated with a nautical touch because a long river,''Saint Laurent '
'crosses the whole province. So I used a penny from our country.

The second one talk about our animal emblem, The snowy owl. So, I used a
 feather under my chipies "Indian feather".

The last one talks about our conifers present in our territory. 

That's why I used Winter twig branches. 

I separated our slogan national ''JE ME SOUVIENS'' on my three ATC's
 to show you that they form a whole.


I hope you like it...
see you next month

A Glimpse of My Mom

Hello. 
 Jennifer Snyder here today to share some of the pieces I created through the month.  
 I have a layout and two cards.  I'll start with the layout first.  

BUT before I start... Please remember to become a blog follower & leave a blog comment to be eligible to go in our monthly draw for a great chippie prize pack.

I used some fabulous 2Crafty chipboard pieces to accent this layout.  As shown below, I used a title piece, "A Glimpse of You", "Chicken Wire Panel" and the "ATC Folk Hearts".  

I had some meaningful reasons for the chipboard pieces I selected. The vintage photo is of my mom as a little girl with her Aunt Julia.  The photos were taken on Aunt Julia's farm where it was fun for the little kids to feed the chickens - thus the "chicken wire panel".  The title, "A Glimpse of You", is appropriate for any for any vintage photo .  It's a moment in time in my mom's life that is fascinating to see.  The "ATC Folk Hearts", well they speak for themselves.  I also have such fond memories of this farm and our Sunday visits to see Aunt Julie and the rest of the family.  

The layout was created using products from the Flying Unicorns main kit for February - such a perfect combo in my opinion. 

So how did I finish my chipboard pieces? I inked them with distress inks, topped them with crackle medium, then sprinkled them with micro beads while the clear crackle medium was wet. 

Here is a close up of the "Glimpse of You".  I did not add micro beads to this. 

  But I did coat in crackle medium.

The paper used is also a great fit for the crackled finish on the chipboard. 

Now time for the cards.  I also made the cards using elements from the Flying Unicorn Feb kit.

  I think the natural chipboard pieces really make such a graceful statement on the cards.

The first card uses the elegant "Rose Vine Heart" chipboard piece.

  The delicate scroll work is just exquisite. 

This is the second card.  I used the "Flower Spurt Chain" piece for this as a border.  Once again a very delicate chipboard piece that has a giant impact on the card. 

Thanks for stopping by and following the creativity here at 2Crafty.
