My first project is this sea/beach theme inspired canvas.   "Today Is Perfect"

Some close ups-  

The chippies have been covered in gesso and splatted with brown watercolor
 randomly. I stamped on the grid panel to give some more texture. 

I used the following 2Crafty chippie pieces- ATC Tiny Hearts & Stars Today Is Perfect Interlocking Grid Panel Anchors

My next project is a layout "Happy"

Some close ups-

 I covered the chippies with gesso and randomly sprayed them with mist
for this page. The Jenna frame and the floral branch have been cut and used
around the picture to form the cluster.

 I did some doodling in black on the floral branch chippies. I have also
 used a few star chipboards covered in gesso.

February Shares With Rachael Funnell

Hello 2 Crafty Chipboard fans!   Before I continue... Please remember to become a blog follower & leave a comment to be eligible to go in our monthly draw for a great chippie prize pack. The more comments you leave, the more chances to win.   Today!  I have two layouts to share with you..... first up is layout one.   'Cousins'

    These are the 2 Crafty Chipboard pieces I've used on this page...    

I gave this "Cousins"word a couple of coats of gesso, then cut & inked with black a heart from a "Heart clumps" & added that heart to where the dot for the i was.....

I also cut 2 more smaller clusters of hearts from the "Heart Clumps" & inked them in black....

I cut some "Sequins negative bits" into smaller pieces, gave them a coat of gesso & once dried I thought it would look cool to ink them a few different colors & added them randomly onto my layout....

  I have few Tiny hearts from the "ATC - Tiny Hearts & Stars" some have a coat  of gesso & the others I've inked black...  For the"Lattice Leaves" I started off by adding a coat of gesso & finished it with  just a light inking with a teal ink....  

   I didn't want it to over power the photo when using the "Lace heart frame" so I just  gave it just one coat of gesso...  

      For my 2nd layout!   'Truly Madly Deeply'

  These are the 2 Crafty Chipboard pieces I've used on this page...   

  I cut into smaller strips the  "Fine Heart border"& inked black...   

  Lightly coated this "Tattered Heart" & finished off with randomly inking it with some teal ink.... Like in my first layout I have added Tiny hearts from "ATC - Tiny Hearts & Stars"  this time gave them a coat of 13@rts gold ink......  

Adding  a just a single coat of gesso to these leafy stems from the "Foilage set 1"  

  Again I started with giving the "Truly Madly Deeply" a couple of coats of gesso,  I wanted to make the title to stand O.U.T a little more so I inked the hearts pink & teal...   

  To finalize this layout, I gave it all a good splatter with black mist which ended up getting most  of the chipboard pieces & finished off this page off very nicely....  :)    That's it from me today...Thanks for stopping by! I will be back next month, till then Happy Scrapping!  

Canvas & Journal Page by Athanasia

'LOVE'

 Tiny Canvas

Hello 2Crafty friends!

Today I'm sharing a tiny canvas I created for a friend of mine as a present.

Before we get started though......

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.

My canvas only measures 8x7 cm and I really love how small and cute it looks.

Even though it is so small I managed to use 7 chipboard pieces and 2 metal pieces 

 to create a dimensional cluster like a pyramid!

This is how it looked before I altered the chipboards and paint it all.

In order to alter the chipboard pieces I used H2Os watercolors and silks by ColourArte

 and black embossing powder by Lindy's Stamp Gang.

First I created a mixed media background and then I started gluing all the 

embellishments with 3D Gloss Gel.

I really love how this  mixed media pyramid looks!

Here are some closeups with details...

ATC Tiny Hearts and Stars

ATC Words 1

Spiral Snowflakes
Fluer Arrows

Hearts

Card Word Circles (I used only the circle)

6'' Circle Revolution Frames ( I used the center of the frame)

    

     

'Walk Alone In Darkness'

I like making pages with quotes I love in my black journal.

For this one I used some small butterflies of the Butterflies set to represent
 the crowd and one big Marianne's Butterfly to be main character of the quote.

I also used some pieces of the Circle Lace Panel - I think it matches so
 beautifully with the butterflies.

First I glued all the chipboard pieces on the page and then I painted them with
 black and white Gesso to create a light and dark shading all over the page...

For the small butterflies I used ColourArte sprays to color them and Lindy's Stamp Gang embossing powders with stamps on them and also on the background to embody them on it.

For the big butterfly I used irridescent silks to color it. They really make the perfect paint for black surface. I also used a White UniBall pen to make some doodling on it and also write the quote.
