Our Sweet Girl by Amy Voorthuis {photo tutorial}

Hello fellow creative souls, 

I am so excited that you are here with us today as it's my turn to bring you some inspiration. For this occasion I created a layout with a bunch of beautiful 2Crafty Chipboard pieces. All the chipboard pieces are treated in different ways like embossing, spraying and waxing. The flowers are handmade with some awesome dies and the picture I used is of our pretty little girl. 

Our Sweet Girl: 

2Crafty Chipboards used:  
9" Steampunk Border
Our Sweet Girl Title
Hinges Pack
Fern Leaf Set
Mini Title Stick Set 1
Freda's Butterflies
Mini Word Set 2
Mini Title Stick Set 3

Firstly I coated the chipboard pieces with a layer of white gesso, then I took the 9" Steampunk Border, the hinges and the word adore and layered them with a coat of black gesso. Then I treated those same pieces with two different waxes and then I ramdomly added some acrylic paint with a tiny brush on them.  

The ferns I sprayed three time to cover them nicely then I used my heat gun to let it dry a little faster. Then I randomly added some green acrylic paint with a paper towel so you get it a little on even as I like. 

Behind the butterflies I added some paper from the collection I used but before I did that I coloured them with both of the pink sprays you see in picture two. Then I used some clear embossing powder since I wanted them in the pink color. The phrase I used is only treated with some blue spray as you see on picture one. 

Thank you so much for your visit today and if you would like to see more of my work please visit here:

"Isn't She Lovely" By Amy Voorthuis

 Hi lovely 2Crafty friends, 

Welcome to this lovely blog, I made a very colorful layout to show you today and I
 have used all these gorgeous chippies you see below. This layout was build with lots of
layers and I have used two Maja Design collections to do so. 

Isn't She Lovely: 

 2Crafty Chipboards used: 
Isn't She Lovely 
Clock Face Frames
Corner Fine Florals
Fine Word Set - Months
Circle Word Tag Set 1
Amelia Frames

The beautiful fine corner florals is treated with white gesso & embossing powder,
 I wanted it to pop of my page. The clock face I firstly applied gesso on and then
some rust paste & and aqua acrylic paints an waxes.

On the word "march" I sprayed with some purple lindy's
and then I applied some matte wax. 

I really love those word disks this one in particular I painted with different pink acrylic paints.

 I really love making flower clusters on my pages and use as many chipboard pieces as I can.

To finish my layout I added some white spray & beautiful pearls. The photo was taken
 on my husbands & my bithdays on March 6th.  Abbey showing of her new dress.

Adore By Marie Claude Rodier

Hello lovelies,

It’s time for me to share with you my last project as part of 2Crafty DT. I had the best three years with this fabulous team. It was a pleasure and an honor to create with the best chipboards ever! I am thankful for Vanessa and Di for having me on the team and I am thankful for 2Crafty community. You are all wonderful!

Frames and Circle Tag are among my favorite 2Crafty products because they are so versatile and goes with any project. I used them on most of my layouts….I had to use them on my last dt project too! 

Adore

Adore was painted with Saphir blue acrylic paint. Finnabair Unicorn paste was added on top of it for a sparkling effect.

Treasure from Circle Tag Set 1 was dry brushed with white gesso and shadowed with Saphir acrylic paint.

6’’ Circle Dot Frame was first unevenly covered with white gesso. Then shadowed with Raspberry acrylic paint. Finally, a few spots of Unicorn paste were added sparsely. 

The same embellishing techniques were used for Chicken Barbed Wire Small panel.
