2Crafty Chipboard used:

- 2C Fine Word Set 3

- 11" Flourish Round Frame

- Frame Celia's Flourish

Here are come close-ups, but feel free to watch the video for more details.

I started by applying a layer of black gesso on the chipboards.

Depending on the color of the gesso, the effect of the colors applied subsequently 

not at all the same result, here I was trying to achieve a dark effect.

I embellished each chipboard in the same way.

I used two colors of Finnabair metallic wax "Bronze Age" and "White Gold" 

to finish I just lightened with a shade "Sweet Rose".

I love the contrast effect on my layout, the dark chipboards, and the light embellishments. 

All the magic of scrapbooking!

I hope this layout has inspired you, don't forget to check out the video.

Thank you for your visit and loyalty to 2 Crafty.

Good scrap to you.

Tropical Sunset By Marie Claude Rodier

 Hi everyone,

I’m here today to share with you my latest layout using some great 2Crafty chipboards.
As summer has arrived early this year in Canada, I was inspired by warmer tones and
flowers patterns for this tropical layout.

Tropical Sunset

I started by painting Frame Celia’s and Lucy’s Flourishes with Hazelnut and Chest of
Gold Sparks paints. I also added white gesso here and there as final touches.

I basecoated Tropical Sunset title and Palm Leaves Set with Emerald Icing Paste and
added a few touches of brown and gold metallic watercolor on top of it. I also added
white gesso to highlight the pieces.

Wing Canvas By Marie Claude Rodier

Hi everyone,

For my first project this month I have created a Mini Canvas.

We are about to redecorate my oldest son's room and he asked me to create something
that would best fit it's new decor with remaining metal pieces of an old mixed media
project that he particularly liked - I was happy to oblige!                    

Wing Canvas

I started by painting every metal pieces and chipboards with black gesso. Meanwhile,
I prepped my canvas with modelling paste, black gesso and several layers blue tone waxes.
When all the pieces were dry, I glued them with hot glue and heavy body gel medium.

I roughly applied Firebird wax on all pieces, leaving some part black
. White gold and white matte waxes were used to highlight them.

Delight In Every Moments by Sabrina Turpin

Hello 2Crafty fans!

Today I was inspired by the lovely spring weather here in Quebec, to create a fresh 

spring-themed layout featuring my husband and I. It's still a bit cold outside, and we

 have had a lot of rain so far this season, so we're taking every chance we have to enjoy the sun!

"Delight in Every Moment"

 

For the "Frame Celia's Flourish", I used some white and green embossing enamel.

On the "Leafy branch border", I applied rose-gold wax. For the "Foliage Set 8", 

I used two coats of green metallic paint, then inked the borders in black.

On the title, "Delight in Every Moment", I first applied some rose-gold paint.

 Then, I applied some black embossing ink so the paint layer would

 show through just a tiny little bit.

For this layout, I used the following 2Crafty chipboards:

Frame Celia's Flourish [FR0048]

Leafy Branch Border [DB0130]

Foliage Set 8 [M00867]

Delight in Every Moment [W00578]

That's it for me today! 

See you in May for other inspiration from me!

Perfect as you areBy Marie Claude Rodier

Hi lovelies,

Today, I am showing you a new beach theme layout!

It has been a while since my last one...

This one is in a non traditional color scheme with earthy tones of brown and deep blue.

I have used beautiful 2Crafty frame flourishes to recreate the horizon shown on my picture.

"Perfect as you are"

"Perfect as you are title" was embossed with Lindy's Cafe au lait powder. 

The two-tones color is obtained by overheating the powder for a few minutes.

Frame Celia's Flourish and Frame Lucy's Flourish were both covered with dark 

brown acrylic paint and tucked under the main clustering.

Clock Face Disc was also painted with brown acrylic 

and placed in the upper left corner of the clustering.

Until next time, be happy and be creative!

"Live Laugh Love" by Sabrina Turpin

Hello 2Crafty fans!

Last week-end was pretty exciting for me as I was celebrating my birthday with a great bunch of friends and my family! To kick off the celebrations early, I decided that I would indulge a bit and prepare a layout featuring my own face juuuust before I get older again!

I'm pretty happy about the result, especially with the chipboards on which I tried a few new techniques.

"Live Laugh Love"

I hand-applied wax on the "Flourish Adornment Set 6" chipboard and inked the borders with black ink.

For the "Frame Celia's Flourish", I applied black paint, waited for it to dry, then applied rose-gold paint. I applied pink embossing ink on top and finally inked the border in black.

On the "Dianne's doily set", I applied white-pink embossing enamel. For the title, "Live Laugh Love", I used bronze embossing enamel.

I used the following 2Crafty chipboards in this layout:

Frame Celia's Flourish [FR0048]

Flourish Adorment Set 6 [PA0048]

Dianne's Doily Set [M00586]

Live Laugh Love [W00223]

That's all for me today! I hope you enjoyed this layout and it gave you some inspiration for your own creations! I'll be back soon with more ideas to share with you guys!

"Cherish" Layoutby Marie Sabatier

Here is my second inspiration for this month of April.

I used to frame the photo of my little girl this beautiful chipboard 

"Frames Celia's flourish" 

that I love for its elegant style and shabby chic!

2Crafty Chipboard used:

- Mini Words 2

- Frames Celia's flourish

-  Flourish adornment Set 7

- Leafy Shrub Set 1

- Chicken barbed Wine Medium 

As always I applied a layer of white gesso on each chipboard.

For the chipboards "Frames Celia's flourish" "Leafy Shrub" and "Chicken Barbed Wine Medium"

I applied a powder embosser in a dark color "Bratwurst Brown".

As well as a light coat of wax "Vintage Silk".

For the chipboard "flourish adornment" I also applied a 

powder embosser in the color of "Ghouly Goblin Green".

For the title I used a wax color "India Pink".

That's it for this month.

I hope that the choice of chipboards for this page will have pleased you.

Thank you for your visit!
