'You Shine' By Rachael Funnell

Hello 2 Crafty fans!

Rach with you today sharing this layout, filled with 2 Crafty Chipboard goodness....

A layout featuring my gorgeous girl (I know I'm a bit biased 😏) 

'You Shine'

The 2 Crafty Chipboard used:

You Shine

Fairy Set 1

Handdrawn heart frame

2018

ATC - Tiny Hearts & stars

With the Chipboard piece 'You Shine' I first added some 

glue then dripped it in some pink glitter... 

The soft & delicate Handdrawn heart frame I have used to frame the photo,

 I have heat embossed it with  'Rose Quartz' .....

The ATC - Tiny Hearts I have inked with black ink so they
 stand out  more against the lighter background.... 

Could not resist using one of the newly released pieces.
This beautiful Fairy from Fairy Set 1...

First gave it a couple of coats of gesso, then dripped the edges in gold glitter!

Another newly release chipboard 2018,  also has a couple of coats of gesso.....

That's it for me today, I'll be back later on in the month...

Till then, HAPPY Crafting....

Layout and ATC's by Sandra Bernard

''You Shine''

Hi chipie fans! I'm back today with another pink layout. 

Love hibiscus flowers, so I based my project on those chipboard. 

2Crafty Chipboard Used:

Hibiscus

Sml leafy Vine

Skeleton leaves

''You Shine'' as title

I started by coloring my background with pink watercolor. Then, I put some distress ink over
 a stencil to create some interesting focal points. I stamped in grey to add more textures. 

My small leafy vines was colored with gesso, then with distress green color.
I added some glitter silver paint in some areas. 

I used two different tones or green to embossed my ''You shine'' title. 

I played with watercolor pencils to colored my hibiscus flowers. And I added
 also some yellow-green color too. 

The skeleton leaves have been colored also with gesso and distress ink green. 

'' Je me souviens''

Means ''I remember''

For my second creation, I choose to talk about my province, Quebec.
 Quebec is a french province of Canada.
In June, we celebrate our national bithday.
 That's why I created 3 ATC's about my province.

2Crafty products list:

fluer de lise ATC

Indian Feathers

Winter twig branches

folk hearts

Interlocking grid panel

I started my ATC's with modeling paste and stencil. Then I added some blue ink

 because the colors of our flag are white and blue. 

To contrast with the blue of the background, I chose to emboss my 

Interlocking grid panel and separated it in three pieces, one on each ATC.

My three ATC's are decorated with a fluer de lise which is our emblem and present on our flag too. 

A folk heart is present also on each one to show you my love for my province.

The first one is decorated with a nautical touch because a long river,''Saint Laurent '
'crosses the whole province. So I used a penny from our country.

The second one talk about our animal emblem, The snowy owl. So, I used a
 feather under my chipies "Indian feather".

The last one talks about our conifers present in our territory. 

That's why I used Winter twig branches. 

I separated our slogan national ''JE ME SOUVIENS'' on my three ATC's
 to show you that they form a whole.


I hope you like it...
see you next month
