"Love at First Sight" with Amy Voorthuis

Hi lovely creative peeps, 

Hope you are enjoying your day! I am always in my happy place while creating for 2Crafty Chipboard and all their lovely chipboard designs. For this layout I have used an older paper collection {2010 to be exact} by "Webster Pages" which is still one of my favorite manufacturers from back then. I of course used another cute picture of our little Abbey! Enjoy my post.....

All the chipboard pieces are treated with white gesso after that I altered them in different ways for the phrase I have used white embossing powder and after that I added some wax. The feathers I colored with some spray paint & matte acrylic paint and also some wax.

The clock faces are treated with brown matte acrylic paint and some metallique paint and in the end with some coral wax.

"Love Forever Happiness" layout by Amy Voorthuis

Well hello fellow crafters, 

I am very glad you are visiting the blog today, here you can find a lot of inspiration from my fellow DT members who are a huge inspiration to me as well. I just love creating with 2Crafty Chipboard pieces & I love creating with as much of them as possible. So for this layout I went all feminine with a couple of my favorite colors & eight different chippies, enjoy my post! Oh and I used a picture of my husband & daughter last summer in Greece....

Love Forever Happiness: 

2Crafty Chipboard used: 
Window Shutter Set 4
Line Words - Happiness
Leafy Shrub Set 1
6x6 Clock Face Frames
Amelia's Frames 
Mini Word Set 2
Squiggly Circle Arrow Journal Spots
Fine Word Set 1

You know what's amazing, you can order directly from the
2Crafty website here so you can also play with their amazing chipboard pieces.

I prepaired all my chipboard pieces with white gesso as I normally do but for all of the chippies I used a different technique let me explain. For the pretty window shutters I used some rustic paint {white sand} which has a sand like structure and applying it is very easy. After that I added some colors with a matte finish and some white wax. 

The clock face frame & amelia frame atre both firstly sprayed with spray paint and then I added some acrylic paint & three different color waxes. 

The words I embossed with different colors and the word "Happiness" I two toned it so it give it more demension. I also embossed the "squiggly circle arrow journal spots" with some pink embossing powder. 

And for the leafy shrub set I used some spray paint and two different acrylic paints and later on I added some wax. I also did a lot of fussy cutting forthis layout now I know why I love doing that it relaxes the mind haha..

"Capture the MOMENT" Layout by Marie Sabatier

Hello everyone, 

I present my second inspiration to you. 

I chose to make a page with this school photo of my little girl.

"Capture the MOMENT"

The 2Craftychipboards used:

- Capture the MOMENT Title

- Clock Face Frames

- Numbers Panels

- Luggage

- 2019

- 2020

- Flowering Clusters

I applied a coat of white gesso on the "Capture the Moment, 

Clock Face Frames and Flowering Clusters" chipboards.

I then embellished with Lindy's Gang embossing powder in the color

 "Oom Pah Pah Pink" for the title and "Stardust Candy Rose" for the others.

For "Numbers Panels, Bagages and Years" I applied a layer of black gesso, 

then "Raven Black" acrylic paint and touches of waxes in several shades 

to achieve this vintage effect.

This "Luggage" chipboard is fantastic. 

I added these essential date chipboards for school photos.

I added paper embellishments and flowers but the chipboards 

are still very prominent. I love!

And that's it, I hope you liked it and gave you some inspiration.

My First Inspiration To Share With You "Forever" by Jenny J

Hello everybody!

I'm really glad to be here and show you my very first layout 

with 2Crafty chipboards.

"Forever"

You can see below all the 2Crafty chippies that I've used on this layout.

*flourish adornment set 4

*forever loopy font

*flower doilies 3

*mini branches

*6"clock face frames

I kept my background quite simple as I only added a little 

bit of texture with snowflake paste and a stencil.

After that, I've built my focal point by layering my photo on cardboard and
 some pieces of paper and, obviously, chippies !!

The main one is the " 6inch clock face frames", treated with embossing powder. 

 In fact, I used 2 clock chippies. 

 I also cut the middle sized one in half and displayed them on my layout.

You can see above and below the "flourish adornment set 4" 

under flowers and that piece is also embossed with powder.

Above, you can see one piece of "mini branches": I fell in love with them, 

they are so cuuuuute! Those were sprayed with Lindy's sprays.

Below, the "flower doilies 3" is covered with white embossing powder.  

This piece is really delicate and it gives a pretty nice touch to my layout.

I choose a title that goes with the feeling of my photo.

"Forever loopy font" goes very well with this engagement ring picture 😉

Don't you agree ?

So, hope you will like this, my very first inspiration at

2Crafty and I take this opportunity to wish you all 

a wonderful year 2020!

Canvas "Shine in the Forest"

My second project is a canvas totally inspired by nature, 4 years ago I traveled to the Amazon

 jungle with my husband and it was an unforgettable trip where I was for the first time close to animals that I had only seen on TV, giant anacondas, ants the size of my finger, huge trees

 the size of buildings and the most wonderful landscapes

To Frame my picture I chose 6" Clock Face Frames and my title "shine" is from Fine word set 1.

Palm leaves set and  Leafy Shrub set 2 were painted in snow paste then in green metal
paint with some touches of Lindys Cottail copper brown and Liquid glass.

 To To decorate some spaces I used Palm leaves set painted in black gesso then sprayed 

with Edelweiss Moss Green and Cattail Copper Brown  from Lindys.

 I have also added liquid glass in droplets to look like water droplets.
