"What a Wonderful Day" Layout by Marie Sabatier

Hello, 2Crafty Chipboard fans!

A new month that begins and new inspirations from all our team.

I was inspired by the paper to create this page and this photo of my niece on 

her wedding day!

"What a Wonderful Day"

2Crafty Chipboards used:

- What a Wonderful Day

- Foliage Set 8

- Doily Frames 

A first application of gesso on each chipboards.

I chose this "Foliage Set 8" chipboard identical to the foliage of my paper 

and I found it interesting to position it on the branches to give relief.

I applied a coat of black gesso, and then some gray metallic paint. 

To give more relief to the branches I add a little glue which I covered with black 

embossing powder, drying quickly and delicately.

For the "Doily Frames" chipboards I applied acrylic paint in two colors 

to differentiate them.

To finish the title which gives all the importance to my page which I embellished 

with the glossy acrylic paint Haematite, ocean and mint-green.

Thank you for your visit today and

I'll get back to you in fifteen days.

But above all, come back every day to admire and

 be inspired by new creations.

 With this page I decided to create a mixed media

Ok! starting off with the half frame circle flourish

Inking this delightful frame with a pale teal 

before sitting & framing the photo 

of my gorgeous girl...

Next up the SUPER cute bird which I have inked 

 with a nice pastel pink, before attaching

it with some foam/dimension tape...

Next I have added two halves of the flower doilies. 

Firstly given them a coat of gesso,

 before inking this with the same pastel pink as the bird!!

Now onto the title 'Shine Bright'

I first gave it a coat of gesso then finished

it with inking parts of the title with no other color, but yellow.... 

Next up I have added 3 Indian feathers..

I started with inking them with yellow ink, then finishing the off 

with rubbing the centres with rose gold wax,

 before adding them into my flower clusters....

Then a couple of pieces from the Foilage set 8, 

where I firstly gave the foilage pieces two coats 

of gesso, before cutting these into even smaller foilage pieces, 

and also adding these thoughout my flower clusters... 

Lastly is this delicate gorgeous Filigree arrow.

Inking this beauty with a purple & attaching this onto my flower cluster...
