February Layouts by Lisa Amiet


Hello everybody!
Isn't the year flying already?!?

This month I have two layouts and a bonus extra to share with you.
Up first I have ...

"Beautiful"

This layout is of my daughter, she is all ready for her Year 12 formal.
I have used some of the "Lavender Shrub"
 First I have embossed in a deep pink.
I have then gone over the tips with gold embossing powder to give a two tone effect.


On top of the lavender I have used some of 
"Addy's Butterflies"
which have been embossed in seafoam colour.
I love how dimensional these butterflies are, 
and with a slight bending of their wings they have even more.


For my title I have used "Beautiful - Loopy font"
I have used the same two tone effect as on the lavender by first embossing
in pink and then going over the bottom half in gold. 


Some more close ups :)


Lastly I have used one of the "Flourish2" and at the bottom of my layout.
 I have again used the two tone embossing effect. I have then layered
one of the "Butterflies" embossed in seafoam.

My next layout to share with you is..

"Love You"  

This is my crazy family LOL, as you can see from my journalling I love them lots! 

For this layout I have played with my watercolour paints.
For my journalling I have used a mix of word stickers combined
with some of the words from the "Arrow Word Set" 


For the word "Sweet" and "Adventure" I have first
coated in gesso and then I have used orange watercolour paints
to splash and layer the colour.


I have used the same technique for the word "Memories" 
and the title "Love You" but with green watercolours.
I love how you can layer and add to the colour with watercolour paints.



Some close ups.



I have left pools of the paint in some areas to give a darker colour and less in other areas.
I love how it turned out.

Now I have the extra bonus for you!

 Just another reason that 2Crafty is awesome
 is that we are sponsor's this month over at the
 Kraft Plus Challenge Blog
I was lucky enough to be asked to be a Guest Designer!
It was one gorgeous challenge to play with. Here is the layout I created.


I've left my chipboard raw for this layout and I love how it looks!

I have used one of the so pretty
"Mesh Hearts"


I have used three of the words from the
"Mini Word Set 2".




I have also used two of the 
"Tiny Leaf Stems" and some of the "Mesh Bits"
to finish off.

The rest of the team has some gorgeous projects to share with you this month!
Until next time...
Take care
