"You" 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 second layout for the month of July. This time it's a layout of my husband who started his own company this may. After two of his former employments went bankrupt he had enough. His last job was fixing electric bikes for the company STELLA. Now he does the same but for himself his company's name is JEBT, Vanessa the boss lady was kind enough to make his bike logo in chipboard which I used on this layout.
 Enjoy this post....

EXPLORE dream DISCOVER Layout by Marie Sabatier

Hello everyone,

I am delighted to be back with you and to present my second layout 

for this month of April.

I was inspired by this picture my grandson.

We were on the tram platform and he explained to me by taking the pose the difference
between the ground with circles and the ground with pavements.
I was dying to laugh!

" EXPLORE dream DISCOVER"

The 2Crafty chipboard used:

- Explore Dream Discover Title"

- Circle Stack

- Frame Zig Zag Borders

- Asst Chain Lengths

- Diamond Chunk Bits

I wanted to create a rural atmosphere and I found that these chipboards 

fit well with my theme.

I chose papers with flashy colors.

I started by applying a layer of white gesso to each chipboard. 

On the chipboard "Circle Stack" and "Asst Chain Lengths" I applied color embossing powder

 "Twilight Blue Silver".

Looking for my layout, I found it fun to organize the two chipboards one on the other with two different colors to dissociate them.

I played with of Washi tape to place the chipboard "Asst Chain Lengths".

I also used embossing powder on chipboards "Frame Zig Zag Borders" and "Diamond Chunk Bits".

To give some relief to the title, I sprinkled powder to be embossed with the same shade.

I hope this layout will inspire you in your future creations.

With these beautiful chipboards.

Thank you very much, see you soon!

"tis, the season" Layout By Marie Sabatier

Hello everyone,

Here I am again to present my second inspiration of this month of June. 

In France, we are approaching the summer holidays, 

It made me want to do a layout on the theme of the sea.

This is a picture of my son and grandson taken last year in a marina.

"tis, the season"

The 2Crafty Chipboard used:

- Mini Title Stick Christmas Set 1

- Assort Chain Borders

-  Anchors & Buoys Set

- Corner Steampunk Set 5

- Seaweed Set 

First I cover the chipboard with a layer of white gesso.

To create perfect harmony, I used the shades of my paper to embellish the chipboard.

For the "Asst chain Borders" chipboard I used "Tin Roof Rusted" powder from Lindy’s Gang. 

I placed them to create a dividing line for my layout.

To bring even more detail I added this chipboard "Corner Steampunk" which 

I embellished with a gray metallic paint.

For the "Anchors & Buoys" chipboard I just applied a thin layer of "Bronze Age" 

coloured wax to reveal the details of the chipboard.

The "Seaweed" chipboard I like have been coated with "Mermaid Sparkle" acrylic paint.

I love creating clusters by superimposing chipboard and ornaments.

Thank you for your visit, I wish you a good scrap with 2Crafty.

To Dreamland by Emma Zappone PLUS VIDEO

Hello friends!

Emma here with you today with another share.
Todays project is a keepsake made for my scrap room wall using wooden planks. 

Here are the awesome chipboard items used:

Assorted Chain Borders
4" Mandala 2
Steampunk Cog Strips

These rectangles only measure 13x15cms. So I knew it was going to be tricky to fit everything
on them that I wanted. But somehow I managed to achieve the look I hoped for.

The chipboard I painted in black Gesso ready for a finish.

I chose to cover them with waxes as this looks really great over black Gesso.
I used a combination of colours to add light and dark shade.

Because of the size of the projects, I had to trim each piece to either share on both or to fit
and suit the size, without taking away the awesomeness of the chippy.

I'm really happy with the finished result and can't wait to hang them.

Here is the video of it all coming together.....Please enjoy.

Happy scrapping everyone and will see you all again soon.

My Gorgeous Nephew layout by Rachael Funnell

Hello 2 Crafty Chipboard fans!

 Rach with you to share this layout I created

 2 Crafty Chipboard: 

2018 

My Gorgeous Nephew

Assort chain borders

Small film strip

ATC - Tiny Stars  

Once I had created my mixed media background, 

I then used the leftover/negative pieces from Adian's arrow, 

painted this with gesso & attaching this just to give another level of contrast....

Using only 1 strip from the Assort chain borders cutting into 

 2 small strips inking with black & adhering them against the white...

Also! Inked with black the title My Gorgeous Nephew

I cut into 2 lengths a Small film strip colouring both 

pieces with Tim Holtz - Distress Crayons

 to coordinate nicely with the two toned background paper....

Painted a couple of coats of gesso to the 2018 

Did the same treatment as the I did to the film strip

 to the ATC - Tiny Stars, adding teal colour to some & green to others...

That's it from me today!

Thanks for stopping by...
