'Moments' by Lisa Griffith

  Hello 2 Crafty friends!
I want to wish all of the 2 Crafty Chipboard blogs readers a very Merry Christmas 
and a Happy New Year! I have prepared a layout and two tags for my December projects.
 
'Moments'


I really love snowflakes for winter projects, and these 'Fine Snowflakes' are so delicate
 and pretty. For the snowflakes and the title I applied a coat of white acrylic paint and 
then while it was still wet I sprinkled on some white glitter.

2 Crafty Chipboard pieces used:





This small deer piece from the adorable 'Deer Set' was embossed with
 'Midnight Gold' embossing powder and then sprinkled with glitter.



I had so much fun creating these two Christmas tags.


2 Crafty Chipboard used:






I wanted to make the chipboard piece 'Sweet Corner Holly' really stand out on my tag
 and make it the focal point. I always cover my chipboard with a coat of white paint as
 a base so that however you chose to alter them, the colors are really bright. 
Here I painted the holly with green and red watercolors.


One of my most favourite ways to alter chipboard is to use metallic embossing powders.
 Here I embossed the snowflake and ornate frame in copper and aged gold to give them
 an aged rusted look.


There are so many beautiful 2 Crafty Christmas themed chipboard designs to suit every project.
I love how my tags turned out, can't wait to attach them to a gift :)

Thanks for looking, until next time!
