Live Your Adventure By Marie Claude Rodier

Hi everyone,

I am here today to show you a new layout full of amazing 2Crafty goodies.

 I used a warm non traditional color palette for this one. I am really happy how it turned out.

“Live Your Adventure”

Frame Round Ornate was basecoated with a light coat of white gesso.

 Vanilla Sparks embossing powder was applied on top.

Vintage Hot Air Balloons were also basecoated. 

The biggest one was embossed with the same Vanilla Sparks powder.

 The smallest ones were embossed with a light mint powder.

Live your adventure was embossed with a cream powder.

Lattice leaves were covered with bronze wax and highlighted with dry brushed gesso.

"Live Your Adventure" Layout by Marie Claude Rodier

Hi 2 Crafty fans! I hope the new year finds you well!

I'm here today to show you my first post for 2 Crafty Chipboard.

Where I live in Canada, January is associated with snow and cold weather.

And that is what I tried to recreate on my layout.

 I applied white gesso over all chipboard pieces as a base coat.

When the gesso was completely dry, I randomly applied blue shades

of water-soluble oil pastels over the title. I then covered most of it with white gesso.

The remaining blue shades are creating a discrete shadow effects.

 

I used the same process for the flourish frames but kept most of the
 blue shades insteadof removing it.

I also dry brushed white gesso here and there to add brightness to my layout.

I applied a coat of white pearl embossing powder over the three snowflakes.

"007"

  Before we start..

Here is a layout with a photo of our oldest daughter at Madame Tussaud in London.

Having a pose with 007 James Bond (or Daniel Craig to be correct)

I used several of the rings of the "Circle stack" in additon to the "Circle revolution frames"
 to match the theme of James Bond 007 and the photo.

To make the 007 I used to of the rings in the "Circular Panel" and cut out
 the number 7 from the "Numbers Panel".

My chippies are colored with acrylic paint, mixed in a colortone that matched the
 photo and also some black ink.

I layered the chippies a lot here and placed the title on top of the rings.

And next, a rush of cards with 2Crafty Chipboards.

Most of them are cut in smaller pieces as you see:

Here I used the Corner Thick vine, cut in two pieces.

The chipboard is used natural, just with some white splashes with ink

I love to add small pieces of chippies on my cards. They make great embellishments!

Not my usual style as many will say, but I'm not always a "messy" girl (even though this card is a type of mixed media card, with lots of work on the background)

The next card, lot more simple and maybe a bit more my style?

I used the word from "Card word set 1" and cut out some of the hearts from
"beaded hanging heart set".

The chippies are used natural as they come, with no colors.

  

Another card with lots of layers

Here I just used small parts of the "Fencing wire panel"

Laces, flowers and chippies - a great match!

Next, two rather simple and similar cards. Used with the same pattern paper and the same chippies.

Once again I have used parts of the "Corner Thick vine" - on both cards.

Not many elements on this card, but I like it.

Next card is a "high" regular card.

Here I used the "Dandelions" underneath the photo and embellishments.

Finally, the last one. Hope I didn't bore you!

Some small parts of the "Fencing wire" added the final touch for this card.

All images used on cards are found on Pinterest.

So, that's all for now. See you in June!
