Welcome, welcome welcome to the amazing 2Crafty Chipboard Blog!!
Hope this finds you all well and enjoying this beautiful summer weather!
Well, except for my Aussie friends...Stay warm!!!
Today I am sharing a soft, feminine layout that to me, captures some of the innocence of childhood.
Hope you like it!
"You"
Lovely 2Crafty Chippies I used:
Clock Face Frame
Flourish Adornment Set 4
Doodled Frames
You - Title
On the Clock Face Frame, I wanted it to be subtle, blending in with the stenciling in the
background, also to match the background of the photo.
I first used white gesso, then dabbed it with a mixture of Distress Grit Paste and Acrylic Paint
a shade darker than what I used on the stenciling. Then I lightly rubbed a little white gesso
over little parts of it to lighten a bit.

For the Doodled Frames, I again used Distress Grit Paste, (Love this stuff!!), mixed with Acrylic Paint. I wanted to make the frames the same color as the chair so that they would contrast well against the Clock Face Frame. I also rubbed white gesso over the frames to soften the effect.
On the Flourish Adornment Set 4, I used the same Distress Grit Paste mixed with Acrylic Paint as I used on the Clock Face Frame placing them in the middle of the flower clusters on the top and bottom of the layout.
On the title You, I simply coated it twice with white gesso, dragging my brush down to try to give it a wood effect.
And that's it! Hope you like soft and girly layouts! I sure do! I will be back in a few weeks with some more 2Crafty wonderfulness to share with you!
Until then, keep safe, stay happy, and keep crafting!!
