'Happy Life' with Lisa Amiet

 

Hello, my 2crafty peeps!
I am back from my break, and I have missed you all.
I am brimming with lots of scrappy ideas,
and this time I have created a layout, featuring a photo of yours truly
(one of the few I don't hate LOL)

2crafty products used:

For this layout, I have worked with shades of pinks and purples. 

I have used one of the 'Weeping Vines', 

I have first given my chipboard two coats of gesso,
with a sponge for even coverage.

I then used watercolour paints in shades of purple to colour them. 
I have cut this into pieces to use around my page, among my layers.

I have also used one of the 'Edgar Swirls',

next to my photo, using the same colouring technique.
It does take a few layers to get the right mix, but I love the effect.

Some more of the Weeping Vine pieces.

I have also used a couple of the 'ATC Maple Leaves',
that I have given the same effect to, but only to the centres.

I have then used these in among my flower cluster. 

Lastly for my title, I have used one of the 'Mini Title Stick Set 3',

that I have left raw.

I hope that you like what I have created
 and that it inspires you to get crafty today!

Until next time!

'September 2016' layout By Rachael Funnell

 

Hello everyone!

Rach with you sharing some more 2 Crafty inspiration

using some great 2 Crafty Chipboard pieces, I have created this masculine grungy layout.

2 Crafty Chipboard used:

ATC - Maple leaves

Aztec Arrow set 1

Fine word Set - Months

Scribble Circles

2016

Starting with the title, September 2016

Inking the fine Word September month with an orange color

 using  Tim Holtz - Spiced Marmalade. And the 201, I've inked with black.

Next for the Scribble Circles & the Aztec Arrow

which I was wanting them to be a bit more grungy like, 

So I went with giving them a nice thick coat of crackle paste.

And lastly for those SUPER CUTE  ATC - Maple leaves

Started with a coat of gesso, then inking them again using the 

Tim Holtz - Spiced Marmalade and finished these 

beauties off with a light inking of a darker orange. 

I'm pretty happy with the end result, I hope you like it too

Thanks for stopping by today!
