G'day there 2Crafties!!
This layout is titled:
'Grateful'
A layout that celebrates and documents our beautiful neighbours.
So grateful for them and to them, and love having them in our lives.
Let's take a look at the video as that best shows you how this came together....
I used the following 2Crafty Chipboard:
"Heart Clusters"
"Grateful title"
"Rose Set"
"6 inch Circle dot frames"
"Mini Branches"
As you can see in the video, I began by coating all of the chipboard in white Gesso.
To the "Heart Clumps" I added white paint.
I then added some doodling with a white pen.
I followed the same process for the "6 inch Circle dot frame".
The 'Grateful title' was painted with some soft watercolours.
I really love this look on chipboard.
It gives it a softer look, rather than bold.
Also, as it's soft it can be added over the photos slightly, without detracting from them.
To the "Rose Set", I also added watercolours.
Such a great finish. Love the variance in the depth of colour.
I just LOVE the "Rose Set" chippy and could use it over and over (in fact I do!).
Finally, to the "Mini Branches", I stamped with a script stamp over the top.
This is a really simple, yet effective way to personalise your chippy.
Love it!
So that's it from me today.
I've been really enjoying playing with more softer colours lately.
So often, I am drawn to bright colours, so it's really nice to mix things up a little!!
I'll see you again next month with more chipboard creations!
In the meantime you can find me on my BLOG.
Love Tam
