Good Day Layout by Elena

Happy day my dear friends!

Today I want to show my layout, 

which was made in collaboration with the blog More than words.

I was looking for inspiration for this work in the word Success.

A couple of years ago I quite successfully conducted live workshops 

in the Studio of the Creative people store in my city.

We worked both in small companies and in large groups. 

I remember one day when the girls came to me to make layouts.

 It was incredibly nice to be recognized as a master who can teach something. 

t was a real SUCCESS for me.

 

I added a lot of dials to the layout as a symbol of the fact that 

the time in our classes flew by very quickly. 

We did not notice how 3-4 hours passed. 

We still continue to communicate and meet.

 Scrapbooking was the key to the door behind 

which opened a delightful world of creativity! 

So I added a metal KEY next to our picture.

2Crafty Chipboard used:

Angie's Vines 

Clock Face Frames 

Line Words - Happiness Borders 

I took a sheet of  paper by Blue Fern Studio as a background.

 The lovely twigs Angie's Vines  were painted with light green paint 

and added embossing powder Oakleaf Olive by Lindy's.

 I decorated the Clock Face Frames  and Line Words - Happiness Borders  with brown paint and powder Twilight Bronze Slate.

That's it for today!

 I hope I could inspire you in one way or another. 

Thank you for stopping by today!

Karine's October share + video tutorial

Dear crafty friends,

It's Karine here today to share with you two layouts

. The first one is called «Love» and it features my brother's family.

I love this picture of them.

 My brother seems so happy and in love, that I wanted to show that in my layout.

To do so, I started with the Love Heart Frames, that I embossed with a dark brown

 embossing powder. It was my focal piece.

To give more texture to my layout, I used pieces of the Grid Panel, embossed in copper. 

I placed those pieces here and there, behind my embellishments clusters.

I also used one of the Fine Heart Borders and cut it in pieces.

I embossed them with a gold embossing powder and placed them here and there, 

over my flowers, in a curved shape. I love the effect.

My title piece is the word «Love» from the Line Words - Happiness Borders. I used 

the same copper embossing powder than before to emboss it.

Some other close-ups...

I created a video tutorial for this layout. Enjoy.

My second layout is called «Family» and it features my two kids with their cousin.

This time, my focal piece is the title.

I embossed the «Family» title with a turquoise embossing powder, to go with my mixed media background.

I decided my picture needed some kind of framing, si I choose one of the 6'' Circle Revolution Frames and embossed it a deep teal color.

Just peeking from underneath my flowers clusters are the Mini Branches, also embossed
 with a deep teal embossing powder.

I love the effect against the background.

I then selected the Leafy Silhouettes, embossed the same turquoise embossing powder
 than before and scattered them around my flowers clusters.

I love the delicate shape of those Leafy Silhouettes.

An Extra Share by Tammy Klingner

Thought I'd pop in today with a few bonus pages.

I recently was lucky enough to go on the amazing 10th and final
Escape2Create retreat in Port Lincoln, South Australia.

A weekend filled with creativity, inspiration, friendships, laughs and decadence!

So good for the soul.

I created these layouts whilst there, and of course they have used lots of my favourite
 2Crafty Chipboard on them, so thought I'd share them here as well.

First up is:

"She Drives you Crazy"

I used the following 2Crafty Chipboard:

"Alpha Set 1"

"ATC Tiny Hearts & Stars"

"Circle Stack"

"Circular Panel"

 I painted some of the "Circle Stack" in black, and some in white.

I trimmed some circles from the "Circular Panel" and painted these white.

I added these to my page, ensuring some were underneath my paper stack and towards 

one side of my layout to create movement, and draw the eye into the layout.

I also painted the letters from the "Alpha Set 1" for my CRAZY title in white too.

I really like how the white and the black pop off the page.

I painted some of the stars from the "ATC Tiny Hearts & Stars" in a
vibrant deep blue and also placed these randomly around the circles.

I also created a layout titled..

"Amazing"

 For this layout I used the following 2Crafty Chipboard:

"Triangle Set"

"Mini Word Set 1"

 I added a bright fun paper to the "Assorted Triangles" and cut them out. 

I also traced around a few of these triangles with a pen. 

This gave the page a 'fun' feel which is perfect with my photos and the story of my layout.

I painted the word 'amazing' from the "Mini Word Set 1" in a silver as I'd used a fun embellishment in silver, yet hadn't used any other silver on the layout, so doing this tied them together.

I like the fun feel I created on this layout.

My final layout for today is titled...

"Happiness"

I used the following 2Crafty Chipboard:

"Line Words - Happiness borders"

"Tiny Triangle Clusters"

"Triangle Clusters"

 I painted the happiness title from the "Line Words - Happiness Border"
black and ran this down the length of my page.

I really love these line titles. 

 So cool.

I painted some of the "Triangle Clusters" and the "Tiny Triangle Clusters"
 in a vivid blue and added these in a triangular shape around my photo.

Another bright happy layout celebrating a gorgeous friend of mine.

So that's it from me today.

I hope you enjoyed the extra inspiration today.
