Cherish Beauty Within by Tania Ridgwell

 Hi there!  

Tania joining you today to share the first of my DT projects for May a Layout.

2 Crafty Chipboard Used:

*11" Floral Heart Frame Set

*Frame Jenna

*Fine Word Set 1

*Mini Title Stick 3

Once I had chosen my background papers and layered them I set about designing my page.  I have used Rose Gold Metallic Wax to colour the Floral Heart Frame, Frame Jenna and Cherish from the Fine Word Set 1.

I added my photo and then arranged the chipboard pieces around the photo.  Once happy I embellished my page using a variety of flowers to compliment the chipboard pieces I have used.

To finish my page I added a couple of chipboard titles from the Mini Title Stick Set 3.

That's all from me today, I hope I have inspired you all a little with my Cherish Beauty Within Layout.  

Until next time,

Thanks so much for stopping by.

"Happiness is This" by Marie Claude Rodier

Hello 2Crafty lovers!

How I cherish those special moments when my kids play along when I take pictures.

The photo in the layout I'm showing you today is part of a special photoshoot

 we did a few summers ago in a beautiful park.

"Happiness is this"

Happiness is this title was basecoated with a layer of white gesso 

then lightly covered with green Gelatos.

It was also distressed with sandpaper. Gold wax touches were added here and there.

11" Fine Floral Frame Set was cut into several pieces.

The two largest parts were left natural and tucked under the papers
in the upper and lower opposite corners.

Tiny Leaf Stems were also basecoated with white gesso, 

then lightly covered with green Gelatos.

Finally, a dark tone of green Gelatos was applied on the leaves to create a greater contrast.

The smallest pieces of 11" Fine Floral Frame Set were placed under the picture

and white gesso was applied as a final touches.
