Memories Bloom in Every Snapshot by Tania Ridgwell

  Hello there! 

Tania joining you today to share the second of my DT projects for March. 
  I have created a layout for my second share.

"Memories Bloom in Every Snapshot"

2 Crafty Chipboard Used:

*Happy Daisy Set

*Photo Adornment - Flourish Set 4

*Memories Bloom in every Snapshot Title

*2025's

I have used the beautiful 49 & Market 'Cottage Life' Collection to create the base for my Layout.

I first painted all the chippie pieces with a couple of coats of gesso.
  I then mixed some Laidback Lilac Dylusions with more gesso to tone down the
 colour and then painted all the chippies pieces again.  

From the 49 & Market Dragonfly Revolution Layered Die Cut Embellishments I used the round Leaf Wreath to frame my photo.  Once I was happy with the placement of these I added the Photo Adornment - Flourish chippies.  I then embellished around my photo with lots of paper blooms and then tucked in the Happy Daisy chippies. 
 To finish off my page I added a 2025 chippie and the Memories Bloom in Every Snapshot Title chippie.

Thats' all from me today, I hope I have inspired you all with my Layout.
  Until next time thanks so much for stopping by.

Her Smile by Tania Ridgwell

 Hi there!

Just popping in to share a bonus DT project for January.  I have created another Layout.

"Her Smile"

2 Crafty Chipboard Used:

*Her Smile

*2025's

*Floral Cluster Set 1

*Annie's Butterfly Flourish Page Border

I have used the gorgeous 49 & Market 'Echoes of Time' Collection to create the base for my Layout.

I have coloured the Floral Cluster, 2025 & Annie's Butterfly Flourish Page Border chippies with Dina Wakley Magenta Gloss Spray and Gesso to give it a two tone look.  I have coloured the Her Smile Title chippie with a White Posca Paint Pen.

I added some paper layers under my photo and then tucked in some coordinating Die Cuts from the Echoes of Time Collection.  I added the Annie's Butterfly with the Flourish along the bottom of my photo, added paper blooms and tucked in the Floral Cluster chippies.  I finished off my page by adding the Her Smile Title chippie to the top right of my photo.

Thats' all from me today, I hope I have inspired you all with my Layout.  Until next time thanks so much for stopping by.

"Waiting for Santa" Layout by Marie Sabatier

Hello everyone,

Christmas is fast approaching. 

On this occasion, I present to you my second inspiration from this month of December. A Christmas-themed layout, illustrated by a photo of my grandson Milan who will celebrate his very first Christmas.

With magnificent chipboards including this model "bauble-deer-frame".

"Waiting for Santa"

The chipboard used:

waiting-for-santa

2025s

6-bauble-deer-frame

fir-xmas-tree

retro-xmas-trees

For this layout, I chose a white watercolor paper background, which I then decorated with transfer rubons. As usual, I first apply a layer of white gesso on each chipboard. I customize the "bauble-deer-frame" ball with printed paper, then I lightly color the edges with red ink. I particularly appreciate its design.

 

I also apply rub-on transfers on the chipboard 'fir-xmas-tree'. As the fir is wide, their use does not pose any difficulty. I found it interesting to stick over the chipboard 'retro-xmas-tree', which I had previously decorated with Distress Oxide inks 'vintage photo' and 'antique linen'. Now that I see it, I am of the opinion that I should have raised it.

I use the same method here. To create a contrast, I add balls with "Puffy Stickers".

The title has a slight shade of red diluted with water, while the mention "2025" is distinguished by a stronger hue.

I wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Marie

        

"Tiny Fingers Tiny Toes" Layout with Amy Voorthuis

 Hello and good morning lovely 2Crafty friend.
How wonderful of you all to stop by the 2Crafty blog, this is my first layout for the month of July. A while back I posted a layout of sweet little Phoenix {Jaime my cousin} her boy who tragically lost his life way to soon. The moment that happened Jaime was pregnant with a baby boy who was born on April 1st 2025, this was such a happy moment after such tragedy. His name is Bowden Dylan and I made a layout of this cute baby boy who looks so much like his big brother. 
Enjoy my post....

Tiny Fingers Tiny Toes:

Gorgeous 2Crafty Chipboard used: 
Filmstrips - Tiny 
Tiny Fingers Toes Title
 Mini Buttons
2025's
Foliage Set 13
Love You Balloons
Circle Arrow Journal Spots
Fine Word Set - Months
Baby Pram Set
Filigree Arrows
6" Circle Revolution Frames
Circle Heart Frames

I just love all the new chipboard pieces, especially those cute heart balloons with that "Love You" text you can use those on every layout you create it is so versatile. I treated the chippies with some white gesso and some of my aqua/alcohol twin markers. Which is so super easy if you don't want it to dark you use the aqua and if you want it a shade darker you use the alcohol markers. 

It was a long time ago that I created and I missed it so much. I cut the cute tittle here so it would fit my layout and I put the heart in my flower cluster on the bottom of that cute picture. By the way I spray painted the pretty new leaves {love them a lot my new favorite} 

Hope you all enjoyed my post thank you so much for stopping by, I will be back with another project soon hope to see you back then....

Just Adorable by Tania Ridgwell

Hi there!

Tania joining you today to share the first of my DT projects for June.  I have created a layout. 

"Just Adorable"

2 Crafty Chipboard Used:

*Just Adorable

*2025's

*12x12 Twiggy Foliage Frame Set

*Foliage Set 13

 I have used the gorgeous AB Studio 'Somewhere' Collection 

to create the base for my layout.

I gave the Just Adorable, Twiggy Foliage Frame (smaller one) and Foliage Leave chippies all a coat of gesso.  Once the Just Adorable and Twiggy Foliage Frame chippies were dry I added some colour to them using Rose Quartz Dylusions Paint that I lightened the colour by adding some gesso. I then dabbed some Heidi Swapp Chartreuse Color Shine along the top and bottom of the Just Adorable chippie.  I coloured the 2025 using Heidi Swapp Chartreuse Color Shine.   The Foliage leave chippies once dry had a little coloured added also using the Heidi Swapp Color Shine.

I added the Twiggy Foliage Frame around my photo.  I then embellished around my photo using lots of paper blooms and fussy cut flowers.  I tucked in the Foliage Leave chippies in amongst the clusters and finished off my page by adding the Just Adorable & 2025 chippie Titles to my page.

Thats' all from me today, I hope I have inspired you all with my Layout.

  Until next time thanks so much for stopping by.

"2025"

2 Crafty Chipboard Used:

*Foliage Set 13
