"Just Love our Story" by Amy Voorthuis

Goodmorning lovely 2Crafty friends, 

Today is my turn to show you some inspiration on this wonderful blog. For this occasion I made a layout with some beautiful 2crafty chippies and the pretty "P.S. I love you papers" by Graphic 45. For this layout I used a wedding picture of ours back in 2012 in front of city hall. 

And you know what's amazing you can order directly from the 2Crafty website here so you can also play with their amazing chipboard pieces. 

Just Love our Story: 

2Crafty Chipboard used: 
12 x 12 Fine Floral Love Frame
Loopy Heart Swirl
Leafy Shrub Set 3
Just Love our Story Title


Most chipboard pieces are layered with black gesso except for the "Leafy Shrub Set 3" that one is treated with white gesso. On that last one I added different colors of green matte acrylic paints to fit the colors of the papers. After that I added some white matte wax and splashes of darker wax. 



After I added the black gesso on the frame I also added some of the papers from the collection behind it I love how that truned out. Then I added some white matte & shiny wax. I think how you alter the chipboard pieces on your work makes them pop extra and sometimes simple treatment makes it perfect for your layout.
