My First Post for 2 Crafty Chipboard by Tania Ridgwell

Hi there!  

Tania joining you today and I am super excited to be sharing my first post as 

part of the 2 Crafty Chipboard Design Team.  I can't wait to share my 

creations with you all through out the year using their gorgeous chipboard.   

For today's share I have created two cards.

Gorgeous 2 Crafty Chipboard Products Used....

*Stars 

*Lattice Leaves

*6" Circle Revolution Frames 

                              To create my cards I first painted the chipboard stars with two coats

                              of Inca Gold Silver and kept the Circle Revolution Frames raw and 

                                      sprayed the Lattice Leaves with Kaisercraft Black Spray.

I layered each card with Patterned Paper & Silver Shimmer Cardstock from Paper Rose Studio.  

I played around with the Stars and Circle Chipboard on the cards until I was happy. 

 Finally I embellished the cards with assorted flowers and finished by tucking in the 

Lattice Leaves amongst the flowers.

Here is the first card....

Second card....

Well thanks for stopping by to see my first post as part of the 2 Crafty Chipboard Design Team, 

I hope I have inspired you a little with my two cards.  

I will be back later in the month to share another project with you all. 

 Until next time happy crafting.

Tania xx

"Me & My Dad" Layout and Video By Marie Sabatier

Hello everyone, 

I am happy to meet you again and to present my first page of this 

month of November  along with a step by step video.

I chose to make a page on the theme of Christmas, I like this period so much 

but this year I think it will be very difficult to share this celebration with the family

 with the new reconfinement measures taken in France.

I took this photo of my son with my grandson it was his first Christmas in 2019.

"Me and My Dad"

TO VIEW VIDEO CLICK HERE

2Crafty Chipboards used :

- Me & My Dad

- 12 X 12 Clock Faces

- Deer Set

- Stars

- Winter Twig

- 2019

- Merry Christmas Card Set Fine 

Here are some close-ups, but don't hesitate to watch the video for more details.

I wanted to feature chipboards on this page. 

I hope I have succeeded!

I mainly embellished each chipboard with 

Lindy's "White Purely" and "Chalk It Up" embossing powder.

Here on the Deer chipboards I like the sheer, shiny effect 

and I thought it was bold to add those words "Merry Christmas"

For the background I chose the "Clock Faces" chipboard board which I cut 

and I used this title "Me & My Dad" it was also obvious for my page.

A little reminder of the year!

Stars to shine!

Here I used the "Winter Twig" chipboards I really like their effect.

I added a lot of material to the bottom of my page to give relief and warmth. 

Finally, a few tone-on-tone flowers.

I hope I made you want to watch the video and gave you some inspiration.

See you soon!

Both inked with black...

To incorporate the assortment of stars used for 

the page I inked the ATC - Tiny Stars and

other sized stars with either black or brown.....

The base page used, already had a great steampunk cluster image

Lastly the Corner Steampunk 2 

I randomly inking this again with a brown & the

You rock my world by Sabrina Turpin

Hello 2Crafty fans!

My big boy is growing up too fast! This week he's leaving for a full week-end by himself to go to a big swimming competition. It's the first time he'll be so far from home by himself! He's growing up to be such a wonderful boy. That's why I decided to create a layout of him sending his love to the world. I'm sharing this layout with you, I hope it'll give you some inspiration!

"You rock my World"

On the "Stars" chipboard, in the back, I applied a black embossing ink and a glittering pencil on top (that's why it's shimmering like this). For the the "Swirly Star Border", in the front, I used a black gesso and then I applied some green wax on top that gives that metallic gold look.

On the "Checkerboard Clumps", I used some mint green embossing powder. For the title, "You Rock My World", I used a shabby green embossing enamel.

For this layout I used the following chippies:

Stars [M00265]

Checkerboard clumps [M00584]

Swirly Star Border [DB0110]

You rock my world [W00402]

That's all for me today! I hope you enjoyed this layout and it helped inspire you to create great stuff! I'll be back in a few weeks with more ideas to share with you! Cheers!

Happiness is this by Sabrina Turpin

Hello 2Crafty fans!

I'm still in a very cheery mood as we're having beautiful weather this summer and a great time having fun before it's back-to-school time next week!
 Today I'd like to share a layout that fits this mood, featuring my husband eating his favorite candy, sour watermelon slices, wearing his watermelon slice shirt! I prepared a layout with fresh, bright colors to go with the watermelon theme, choosing a palette that I don't often pick for my hubby.

"Happiness is this"

On the "Mini Tags", I applied pink embossing ink and traced the contour with black ink. For the "Stars", I applied jade-green shimmering paint.

For the "Mini Branches", I used two coats of peach embossing powder infused with mini sequins and traced the contour with black ink.

On the "Star Bubble Set", I applied two coats of yellow embossing ink.

For the title, "Happiness is this", I simply applied black paint.

 The following 2Crafty chipboards have been used in this layout:

Star Bubble Set [M00666]

Mini Branches [MB013]

Happiness  is this [W00163]

Mini Tags [M00363]

Stars [M00265]

That's all for me today! I hope my layout helped give you some inspiration for your own creations! I'll be back with more ideas soon, wish me good luck for back-to-school week!

"Handsome"By Sabrina Turpin

Hello 2Crafty friends!

For my layout today I wanted to build around a photo of my pre-teen son showing me his true smile, something that is getting a bit as he's growing up! One moment he can be showing his newfound attitude and the next one he can be the sweetest human being on earth!

With this layout, I wanted to highlight these both sides of him, combining both soft and hard elements. It's one of my simplest layouts in recent times, but I think it really allowed the vibe to come through.

"Handsome".

On the smallest circle of the "6" Circle Revolution Frames", I applied red embossing ink an then applied black embossing ink on top. On the "Mini Tags", I applied gray ink roughly and then I traced the contour with black ink. For the title, "Handsome - script", I used gray pearl metallic paint.

On the "Stars", I applied black embossing powder roughly, then dabbed red embossing ink on top so the black and the original chipboard color would stay visible in certain parts. For the "Circular Panel", I used silver embossing powder.

In this layout, I used the following 2Crafty chipboards:

Mini Tags [m00363]

Circular Panel [m00462]

6" Circle Revolution Frames [66030]

Stars [m00265] 

Handsome - script [w00511]

That's all for me today!
 I will be back in a few weeks with more ideas to share with you.
Until then, have fun creating!
