"Embrace Today" By Marie Claude Rodier

Hi everyone,

Red is one of my favorite colors, but also one I don’t really use on my layouts, except
 during Christmas time. However when combined with blue and white, it creates an
 amazing contrast. I really love the pop of vibrant color it adds to my chipboard title. 

Embrace Today

"Embrace Today"   title was first embossed with a glossy red powder and
 thereafter white washed with gesso.

The "Avery Frame" was painted with dark, medium and light blue acrylic paints.
A few touches of white gesso were also added afterward.

The "Flourish Adornment Set 5" pieces were painted with blue liquid acrylic
 and highlighted with gesso.

 Until next time, be happy and be creative!

"Beauty" a Layout by Bec Genet

Hi everyone.
Today I have a my first November layout made with 2Crafty Chipboard to share with you. 

Sometimes I love to make layouts with mixed media backgrounds and get my paints and pastes
 out, then other days I like to make clean layouts. This is one of my clean layouts with just a plain background, someday's it's nice to make something simple.

The 2Crafty Chipboard Used:

 Beauty Script Title

Avery Frame

Lattice Leaf Set

Ornate Gateway

Close Ups:

Along with my plain background I went simple on colouring my chipboard too. I only used Liquid Pearls to add the colour. This is a really easy and mess free way to make chipboard look amazing.

On the Avery Frame and Lattice Leaf Set I used Ranger Liquid Pearls in Avocado.

I used Ranger Liquid Pearls in White Opal on the Beauty Script Title and on the 

Ornate Gateway I used Nuvo Crystal Drops in Raspberry Pink.

I embellished the page with flowers and that was it :)

Thanks for visiting

July Inspiration "My happy place" by Marie Sabatier

This is my second page for this month of July.

I have created a very soft and gentle theme.

A photo taken in nature that goes well with the choice of chipboard.

To create interest on the bottom of my page I applied a drawing with a stencil and embossing paste that I covered with embossing powder to give more texture and shine.

For the chipboard flower I just covered it with a metallic bright color Mintgreen paint

For the title and the frame I painted and applied a wax

For the cage I applied an embossing powder

Finally, I added embellishments ....

The chips used : 

- Avery Frame

- Pretty Birdcage

- Beaded Hanging Hearts

- Handdrawn Flowers

- My happy place

That's my inspiration for this month of July 

So much fun to create !!!
