"A Precious Moment" Layout with Amy Voorthuis

Goodmorning lovely 2Crafty friends, 
Thank you so much for taking the time to visit the 2Crafty blog, I hope I can inspire you with my layout to take out your lovely 2Crafty Chipboard and have some fun. For today I have a cute baby layout - one I made for my ex-colleague, she had a baby boy in June and she always loves my work so she asked me to make her a layout and so I did. 

A Precious Moment

Gorgeous 2Crafty Chipboard used: 
Thin Square Stacked Frames
Mini Buttons
Loopy Heart Swirl
A Moment With You
Beaded Hanging Heart Set
Fine Word Set 2
Funky Heart Swirls
Corner Annalise
Baby's Clothesline
2024's

Oh my gosh how I love the aqua/alcohol markers it's so easy to add them to your chipboards that it takes a hour less creating. You can add it to just raw chipboards or chipboards treated with gesso. It just makes it a lot easier. 

So all the chipboard pieces are treated with the markers to match the colors of my papers. I have used some soft tones like yellows, greens, browns & white. As most of you maybe know I love to cut up phrases and add words to it I also did that here. 

 Hope you all enjoyed my post thank you so much for stopping by, I will be back with another project soon hope to see you back then....

"My Beautiful Baby Girl" by Amy Voorthuis

   Goodmorning lovely 2Crafty friends, 

Today is my turn to show you some inspiration on this amazing blog. For this occasion I made a layout this time I have used some beautiful pastel tones. When I saw the newest collection "Little One" by Graphic 45 I was in love right away. I have so many baby pictures of Abbey & Kevin that I bought that collection as soon as it was available.
 I have used a picture of Abbey when she was a couple of day's old {isn't she cute?}

My Beautiful Baby Girl:  

2Crafty Chipboard used: 
Angie's Vines
Circle Dot Frames
Frame Flourish 5
My Wish for You
Beautiful Little Girl 

First I gessod all the chipboard pieces with two layers of white gesso then I cut up two phrases "Beautiful Little Girl" & "My Wish for You" for the words beautiful and girl I just added two layers of white embossing powders and the word my was treated the same way only with pink embossing powder.

The circle dot frame was also treated with white embossing powder later on I added some cute light pink buttons and some crystal nuvo drops. The vines are treated with some green impasto paint and and green/gold acrylic opal magic and then some white matte wax. I figured something out what made me very happy I could stitch with my sewing machine on my chipboard Frame Flourish 5... so you will see this technique more often from me for sure
