Rainbow Garden Cards by Tania Ridgwell

Hello there! 

Tania joining you today to share the first of my DT projects for August.

  I have created a set cards.

2 Crafty Chipboard Used:

*Thin Square Stacked Frames

*Thin Hexagon Stacked Frames

*Photo Adornment - Element Set 3

*Flourish 2

I created each of my card bases using the beautiful Paper Rose "Rainbow Garden Quick Card Cardmaking Kit". 

I coloured all my chippie pieces using a mix of Art Alchemy Indian Pink, Blue Lagoon and Jamie Rodgers Cherry Blossom Metallic Wax's. 

To construct each of the cards I added either a Thin Hexagon or Square Stacked Frame or a half Element from the Photo Adornment set 3 chippie to each.  I also added a Flourish chippie to each.  I

then embellished them with paper doilies, die cut elements from the kit and paper blooms. 

See each card below.

Thats' all from me today, I hope I have inspired you all a little with my Rainbow Garden Cards.

  Until next time thanks so much for stopping by.

"Those Eyes That Smile" Layout by Marie Sabatier

 Hello everyone,

I present to you my first inspiration for this month of August. 

A layout inspired by this photograph of my grandson.

I really like scraping on themes, but in this context, my main goal is to highlight the decoration with embellishments, flowers and, of course, beautiful chipboards.

"Those Eyes That Smile"

The chipboard used:

those-eyes-that-smile

thin-hexagon-stacked-frames

foliage-set-7

 

First, I apply a layer of white gesso to each chipboard.

The "thin hexagon stacked frames" chipboard is ideal for matching the prints in the "Botanical Buzz" paper collection. It is embellished with Lindy's Gang "Café au Lait" embossing powder.

On the right side of my photograph, I created an embellishment cluster and added "Foliage Set 7" chipboards by inserting them on either side of the bouquet. I chose the color "Desert Moon Turquoise."

I love the close-up!

I think I made the right choice by choosing this title. 

It is simply covered with white gesso.

Thank you very much for your visit.

"Journey" Layout by Marie Sabatier

 Hello everyone,

I present to you my second inspiration for this month of October: a layout with photos 

of my grandson taken this summer, contemplating a pond with turtles. He was fascinated!

"Journey"

The chipboard used:

- Thin Hexagon Stacked Frames

- Thin Square Stacked Frames

- Foliage Set 2

- Journey

I start by applying a coat of white gesso to each particle board.

To frame the photos I use a “Thin Hexagon Stacked Frames” and a “Thin Square Stacked Frames”

They are simple while bringing fantasy through their design to this layout which I wanted to be very refined.

I applied Lindy's Gang inks in shades of green to the foliage, using a brush equipped with a reservoir.

I position them around my photos to have a visual impression of extension in relation to the decor 

of the photos. I add splashes of white gesso to obtain a less sharp effect.

"Journey"

I chose this imposing title which fits perfectly and which illustrates this moment when my grandson 

is lost in his thoughts. It is decorated with a single coat of “matte white” acrylic paint.  

    I am hoping that this layout will be a source of inspiration for you.

Thank you very much for your visit!

Her Smile Layout by Tania Ridgwell

Hello there!

Tania joining you today to share the last of my DT projects for March.  I have created a layout.

"Her Smile"

2 Crafty Chipboard Products:

*Her Smile

*11" Round Flourish Frame

*Thin Hexagon Stacked Frames

*Pretty Flowers

I used the gorgeous Mintay Bloomville Collection to create the base for my Layout.

I cut the 11' Round Flourish Frame in two and as I wanted it to stand out on the background paper I kept it raw.  I gave the rest of the chipboard pieces a coat of gesso and once dry I painted them all with Blushed Peach Opal Polish.  I then randomly sprayed the Pretty Flowers and the Hexagon Stacked Frame with white Linen Dylusions Spray. I covered the Her Smile Chipboard with the White Linen Spray so it just had a slight tinge of the Blushed Peach Opal Polish.

I built up the layers under my photo with some patterned paper and fussy cut elements and then added the Hexagon Stacked Frame over my photo.  I embellished the page with lots of yummy blooms and added some texture with art stones and prills.  I finished off my layout by adding the Her Smile chippy title.

Thats' all from me today, I hope I have inspired you all with my Layout.  Until next time thanks so much for stopping by.
