Hello everyone!

Rach back with you sharing my latest layout 

featuring this sweet photo of my gorgeous girl & her dad....

2 Crafty Chipboard used:

6x4 Phrase stick set 1

Circle heart frames

ATC - Tiny hearts & stars

2016

As always I have kept the treatment to the chipboard quite simple..

Let's start with the title where I have chosen from one of the 6x4 Phrase stick set 1

These Phrase sticks are the best and makes it so easy when adding a title... 

 I have inked the Precious memories with you with Tim Holtz - Pumice Stone...

Next up I have added the year 2016, inking this with the same color....

Then I have the gorgeous Circle heart frame, that I have sitting over, 

and framing the precious moment inked this with Tim Holtz - Victorian Velvet..

And lastly are the super sweet ATC - Tiny hearts I have scattered on my background..

Inking these with a lovely green....

Thanks for stopping by today, 

I hope I have inpsired you in someway

Until next time...

Today is Perfect By Charmane Sharp

 

If you follow my Scrapbooking, on my page Scrapbooking with Passion by

Charmane Sharp you know the ocean lives in my soul. I also know I can build

a layout with 2Crafty Chipboard and use chipboard that is not beach themed.

Yet the end result is perfect with curved pieces like the Revolution Circles and

Leafy Shrub sets to reflect the waves.

2Crafty Chipboard used...

Title- Today is Perfect

Foliage set 9

Leafy Shrub set 1 x2 sets

6' Circle Revolution Frames

Using Finnabair waxes over the Gesso gives a beautiful shiny finish to

the title. I chose Celestial and Sea Glass for the top and applied Graphite

to the entire word perfect. Then rubbed Celestial on the top of the letters

so it came out darker than over the white background of the word today.

I opted for Graphite stems, Old Denim at the base of the flower and Faded

Denim wax on the petals. Gesso underneath helps the colours to shine. It's so 

easy to apply with your fingers and blend together.

I used two sets of the Leafy Shrub set 1 so I could have 2 of the same piece

to create uniformity. Blue Lagoon and Celestial wax give a brighter look

against the foliage so they compliment each other but stand out individually.

By cutting them up I had four pieces to place around my layout to have

continuity and brighter details.

By placing a Revolution Circle Frame over my photo it keeps it focused

with all the gorgeous details around it. Then tucking a larger frame under

-neath creates the look of more circles encircling the photo. They were both

waxed with Old Denim and a little Celestial rubbed on for contrast.

Finnabair waxes are so easy to use on chipboard and a tiny amount goes

a long way so they are also economical. If you don't like messy fingers then

wear gloves or clean your hands with Archival ink cleaner. It gets most of

the colour off and then after doing the dishes my hands are usually clear of colour.

Until next time...

'Treasure Every Minute' with Lisa Amiet

 Hello all!
It's Lisa here today to share some autumn vibes with you.
I have created a layout of my gorgeous girl :)

'Treasure Every Minute'

2Crafty Chipboard:

For this layout, I used some of my all time favourites from the

'Photo Adornment Flourish Set 4', 

that I have coloured with watercolour paints to coordinate with my papers and photo. 

I really like the effect of the watercolours.

I then also used one of the foliage pieces from the 'Foliage Set 10',

for which I also used watercolours to coordinate with my page. 

I have used one of the '6 x 6 Clock Face Frames',

again coloured with watercolour paints and tucked under my photo. 

Another of the flourishes, tucked under my layers and floral cluster. 

I love the watercolour effect of the chipboard along with the warm autumn vibes. 

I hope that you like it too!

Until next time!

"Perfectly IMPERFECT" Layout by Marie Sabatier

Hello everyone,

I hope you’re all right!

In France, the weather is completely chaotic, and on this first May, 

it is raining constantly and it is still cold.

Fortunately, scrap can brighten our day. 

My inspiration is a romantic Shabby Chic layout.

"Perfeclty IMPERFECT"

The chipboard used:

- Perfectly IMPERFECT Title

- Frame Oval Ornate

- Foliage Set 11

- Loopy Heart Swirl 

        

Exceptionally I did not use a photo of my grandchildren. 

I realize this page to offer on the occasion of Mother’s Day to the mother of this little girl that I keep.

I apply a layer of white gesso on each chipboard. 

To frame my photo, I use one of my favorite chipboards: "Frame Oval Ornate". 

To embellish it I add a thin layer of wax "Old White".

This new "foliage" is really beautiful. It adds a very precious touch to my two flower clusters.

It is covered with wax "Lucky Emerald" and "Heather Hills".

I add a beautiful title that perfectly matches this photo, as well as this "Loopy Heart Swirl" 

which brings a nice finishing touch to my layout.

I choose the wax "Sweet Rose" for the title and "White Gold" for the heart.

I hope you enjoyed my chipboard selection and that it gave you some ideas.

Hoping to have the pleasure of seeing you soon!

Marie

       

'Bloom Wild' by Emma Zappone

Hello everyone!
Popping in with a small share today.
I created an A6 'Tag' style project, featuring small chipboard elements amongst the layers. 

Here are the chipboard elements used....

Mini Decorative Frame set 5
Old World Key/Lock set
Chunky Dandelions

I kept the finishes simple on all the chippy this time.
I nearly left them raw, but they blended in too much, so I added some metallic ink to them.

These mini frames are probably my favorite to use. I always seem to be drawn to them.

How awesome are the dandelions?! They add a little quirk within this project.

Now the key isn't all that small, but I just loved the oddity it brings to the composition.
And it frames the photo perfectly, and adds some leverage to the quote.

At the end, I added a dotting of white gesso over the chipboard elements to add depth.

It was fun creating so small.
I hope I have inspired a little today.

Until next time, stay Crafty.

"Love This Memory"Mixed Media Layout By Di Garling

Well hi there and hello, thanks so much for stopping by.

Di Garling
here with you today with a mixed media layout to share.

2Crafty Chipboard Used....
Mini Word Sticks Set #5
Birds In Flight
Frame Messy Squares Set 6"

Leafy Shrub Set #3

So after some mixed media on my background & some

fussy cutting, I set about altering all the chipboard pieces.

For my title “Love This Memory”, which is from the 

“Mini Title Set #5”. I just left it raw because it just worked !! 😀

Next up came these gorgeous little frames. They are called

“Frames-Messy Squares 6”. They were just perfect to showcase 

my photos. I gave them a coat of white gesso followed by a watered

down wash of pink acrylic. Really happy how they turned out.

They were the perfect thing to showcase these beautiful photos!!

I also added one of the little birds from the  “Birds in Flight” set.

I treated this piece in the same way as I did for the frames except I

used a lovely shade of green instead.

Finally I finished off with a piece of chippie from the

Leafy Shrub Set #3 which I treated exactly the same as 

what I did for the little bird.

Well thats all I have for you today, I do hope you like it.

Until next time....
