Esther Vine
Arrow Word Set 2
6" Circle Revolution Frames

Here are some close ups..

First, I made a mixed media background with modeling paste and a stencil and made some
 random stamping. Then, I added color with the ''Bayou Boogie Gold'' and the
 ''Dark Chocolate Truffle'' Lindy's Stamp Gang sprays.

 
While waiting everything to dry, I heat embossed the ''Circle Revolution Frame'' with the ''Orbit Olive Gold'' Lindy's embossing powder and the ''Esther Vine'' with the ''Bratwurst Brown'' powder.

 
The ''Happy'' title from the ''Arrow Word Set 2'' was also heat embossed
  with the ''Bratwurst Brown'' powder.
   
Finally, I added some plum glass beads and made some splatters
 with 13arts Splash ink in white.

''Getaway''

My second layout is a grunge page created with lots of chipboards
 along with some metal embellishments and flowers.

And a closer look at the details...

I made a mixed media backgound with some stamping first and then heat embossed the pattern with the ''Bratwurst Brown'' Lindy's embossing powder. Then, I created more texture with modeling paste and a stencil, and I used the ''Cattail Copper Brown'' and the ''Dark Chocolate Truffle'' Lindy's sprays to add some color. Some black splatters was made with a splash ink.

I heat embossed the title from the ''Mini Travel Word Set 2'' and the ''Flourish Adornment Set 4'' with the ''Black Forest Black'' powder.

The ''Clock Face Frames'' chipboards were also heat embossed with the ''Midnight Gold'' powder and the ''Film Strips Tiny'' & ''Dreamcatcher'' chipboards with the ''Bratwurst Brown'' powder.

 To finish, I added some copper glass glitter along with some bronze micro beads and made some splatters with white acrylic artists ink.

Well, that's all for today...

 

I hope I gave you some inspiration!

October Inspiration by Noura Pompilla

Hello 2crafty friends  !!

I hope this finds you all well.
This is my first project of the month which was inspired by one
of the most delicate things for me which are babies.
  
Canvas-"Just too Cute"

Some details...

I used Circle heart frames to frame the photo of the cute beautiful baby
and then I gave it just one layer of acrylic paint.

Chicken Wire Panel, I painted it with acrylic paint and afterwards
I covered it with clear embossing powder.

To decorate some parts I used Everyday Font L/C which I painted with gesso
and white crackle paste, adding the letters A, B and C.

Finally I left the title in its natural states as it goes well with the soft colors.

2Crafty Chipboard used:
-Just too Cute tittle
-Chicken wire Panel
-Circle heart frames
-Everyday Font L/C

I based this on  the following challenges...
Maja Design

More than Words Challenge

*****

Layout - "Hapiness is This"

For my second project I decided to maintain the majority of the chipboards in
their natural state for a lovely contrast on the very bright background.

To the background I've added some pieces from the Turkish Panel.

I added to the sides of the photo Mini Flourish Bits.

The "Happiness is this " title in black acrylic paint.

2Crafty chipboard used :
-Mini Flourish Bits
-Turkish lattice panel

I hope I was able to help you with some ideas, thanks for reading,
see you next month.
