Flower Doilies

Fine heart border

ATC tiny butterflies

Angel Wings

Friendship mini words 'Dream' 

The word Dream has been given a couple of coats of gesso!

The SUPER cute ATC tiny butterflies I have used have been heat embossed with Orange...

With the Flower Doilies I have randomly dabbed on some gesso, so that it was
still exposing some of the raw chipboard...

One of my all time FAVOURITE chipboard pieces are these delicate Angle Wings,
which I heat embossed purple..... they turned out FANTASTIC!

 A Strip of the gorgeous Fine heart strip, I have inked black then cut into three
 pieces & placed randomly onto my background/base page.....

That's it from me this month!

Thank you for stopping by & HAPPY crafting peeps....

January Layouts by Kavitha

Hello friends,

Kavitha here today to share two layouts with you.

"Believe in Miracles"

For my first layout, I chose a soft pastel colour palette.

I used beautiful chippies to create the floral arrangement around the picture.

First I gave a coat of white gesso to all the chipboard pieces,
& I colored some of them and left some of them white.

I trimmed off the "Viney Page Frame" and used 

around the floral arrangement.

You can see in the photo above how I've combined the pieces.

2Crafty Chipboard used:

Circle Revolution Frame 

Believe in miracles

Corner Evie

11"Viney  Page Frame

"Cherish the Moment"

My second layout is soft shabby one against a black background.

I used beautiful flourishes from 2crafty to 

create the composition.

I heat embossed the chippies with black and white embossing powders.

The butterflies are colored with watercolors.

December Inspiration By Lilibleu

"Christmas Day"

Hello 2 Crafty Fans !!

Today it is my turn to present you my December projects, and I chosen to 

make a page and two cards with a Christmas theme!

During one of my wanderings on Pinterest, I found this very nice picture 

which I find  illustrates just fine the magic of Christmas!

2 Crafty Product Used:

- Christmas Day Title 

- Dotted Baubles

- Holly Twig Branches

The "Dotted Baubles" chippies are embossed in white and I added some touches 

of gold glitter to give more brilliance.

The "Holly Twig Branches" chippies are embossed in glittered green and I sprayed 

white ink on the leaves to give a snowy look.

I embossed the title in gold and I whitened the sides with gesso.

"Noel & Magic 

For my second project, I give you this duo of cards in the colors of Christmas: red, green, white and gold.

The first card "Noël" (Christmas in French):

All the chippies are embossed because I think the shiny appearance is perfect for Christmas.

There's only the small reindeer to have its antlers painted brown.

The second card "Magic"

2 Crafty Product Used:

- Holly Vine Wreath 

- Christmas Mini Word Set 2

- Mini Reindeers

- Fernlike Snowflakes

The "Holly Vine Wreath" chippie is first painted white and then I painted green the leaves.

The title "Magic" is embossed in red.

As for the previous card, the snowflake and the reindeer are embossed in gold

 and the reindeer has its antlers painted brown.

These two cards are also my participation to Scrap Africa's December challenge.

And that's all for today!

See you back here soon with some more 2 Crafty inspirations.
