December Inspiration By Jessika Lundman

"Christmas Cuties"

Hi guys!

Christmas is almost here! It is by far my favorite time of the year!

So for starters I want to show you this Christmas layout I made of my two cuties :) 

I used the color scheme of red, white and gold. Mostly I used color bloom spray for the

 red and gold and acrylic for the white.

Aren't the Christmas bulbs just beautiful? It is a big chipboard piece that I cut to pieces so I could place them exactly where I wanted them. The gold bow is also a part of that chipboard piece and I also have two swirls that where left overs from the same big chipboard piece that I will use on another layout.

The bulbs,  I embossed with white, red and sparkle embossing powder to really make them shine.

In the background you can see both white and gold. I splattered gold and white and also used

 heavy white gesso to make sort of a snow effect behind the embellishments.

"The Magic of You"

For my second layout I wanted to make something a little more boyish :) 

A magic layout for a magic boy.

At first this layout was all black and white stars but when it was almost finished and I

 looked at it I thought it lacked that "umpf" so I simply cut it in half and mounted it 

on a white cardstock. I loved how it came out! The contrast is awesome. Some 

black stars on the "other side" to tie the layout together.

All the chipboard is painted with white acrylic and that is also what I used on the
 background for splatters and dabbing.

November inspiration by Jessika L

"Love"

Hi everyone!

Jessika here with two layout for November.  This first one is a very special one to me. It is about me and my love. We have been together for half of my life! (I am now 30).

I went quite monochromatic with this one. The line word "love" was my starting point and all the decorations where sort of placed around that.

All of the chipboard where painted with black gesso and the bricks and gears also got some silver paint and silver embossing on them to look sort of metallic.

I then combined that with metallic stars and butterflies. I absolutely love how this came out!

October Projects + A VIDEO By Jessika Lundman

"Summertime"

Jessika here with two new projects with 2crafty chipboards!

So first I made this summer layout and I realized about half way through that I was making

 a summer themed layout when there was frost outside. :) But I have all these amazing

 summer photos I want to scrap and a lot of beautiful summer chipboards so even thought

 we are heading for winter here in Sweden you will probably see a lot of summer

 stuff from me.

I wanted to make something colorful and playful and this time I colored all my chipboards

 with acrylic paints to match the photo. I tried to place everything in a sort of scattered way.

I used puzzle pieces because I think they are somewhat childish and playful
 and match my youngest son perfectly :)

The circles, the heart and the dotted line beneath 2016 are all from the
 same chipboard piece that I cut up to use in different ways.

"Beauty and Wonder"

Here are two metallic looking tags I made for my second project 

and these even have a process video :)

I wanted to make something darker and metallic for the background so
 that the white painted chipboards could really pop! 

I LOVED how they came out.

 I have a lot of detail photos so be sure to check out the video at the end.

Above and below you will see close ups of the chipboard pieces.

I tried to place the hearts so that they sort of bubbled out of the floral pieces.

These Mini Words are great for cards/tags and smaller titles.
