Rach with you today sharing another bit of

 2 Crafty Chipboard inspiration... 

2 Crafty Chipboard used:

2018

Fine flower adornment set 1

Indian feathers

Dream in Color

This layout came together quite quickly really, which I love..

I did a simple but effective treatment to the chipboard

and gave all of the pieces 2 coats of gesso...

The Indian Feathers & the 2018 

amongst the strong bright colors

looks gorgeous don't you think....

 The title Dream in Color & Fine Flower Adornment from set 1 in white

'Adore' layout created by Rachael Funnell

 

Hello & a warm welcome to the 2 Crafty blog.

Rach with you today, sharing my newest layout

created with some fabulous 2 Crafty Chipboard pieces..

2 Crafty Chipboard used:

Fine word set - Months

Charlotte flourish

2018

Circle tags set 1

Let's start with the gorgeous large Charlotte flourish which I 

wanted to showcase all of its beauty so I decided to cut this flourish into two pieces, 

and inked with this lovely green....

Next, I inked this sweet Adore tag from Circle Tags Set 1

then with some foam tape, I adhered onto part of the flourish.

I think it looks great with all the fussy cutting sitting underneath..

Lastly, I have added the month & year to my layout..

The 2018 I simply inked it with a lovely pale green 

which I thought looked great...

However, with the month September, I inked with a burgandy a

but wasn't really loving it so I decided to apply a thick coat of gesso over it instead

which I think looked so much better,

I really love how this has turned out!

I hope you liked it too & have been inspired you in some way

'Timeless Beauty" layout by Rachael Funnell

 Hello 2 Crafty fans!

Rach with you today sharing my newest bit of 2 Crafty inspo..

"Timeless Beauty"

This features a photo of my beautiful daughter

and some really fabulous 2 Crafty Chipboard pieces: 

Old World key/Lock set

Steampunk Border 9"

Steampunk Arrow set

Timeless Beauty title

2018

Let's start with the very so gorgeous Lock from Old World key/Lock set

What I did was trying my best not to lose any of that beautiful delicate detailing to this lock by 

using a paintbrush and applying a very very light coat of gesso..

also added some gesso to this really cool Steampunk arrow I have sitting on the lock...

Next up is the title - Timeless Beauty 

.where I just simply inked it twice with  nice forest green,

I really like how it has turned out... I also did the same to the 2018

Lastly, we have the beautiful Steampunk Border 9"

So I tried something a little different from my usual inking & gessoing...

I heat-embossed this board with a really pretty Rose Quartz...

DOESN'T IT LOOK GREAT! 

Thanks for popping by 

and until next time
