'A Little bit of Sparkle' Tags with Lisa Amiet

 

Hello 2Crafty Fans!
It's Lisa here today to bring a little bit of sparkle to your day.
I have created this set of two gift tags for you.

2Crafty Products used:

For my first tag I have used some of the 'Sequins Negative Bits',

that I have finished in a weathered white and added in among my layers.

I have also used one of the 'Frames Tiny Henri's',

finished in the same white that I have layered it with one of the 'Intricate Seahorses',

that I have finished in a teal, blue and purple glitter embossing powder. 

Finally, I have added one of the stars from the 'ATC Tiny Hearts & Stars',

that I have left raw to match my papers.

For my second tag, I have used some of the 'Mini Hexagon Clumps',

again finished in the weathered white, in among my layers. 

There is also another star from the 'ATC Tiny Hearts & Stars' on this tag.

I have also used one of the gorgeous 'Aztec Feathers',
that I have again embossed with a teal, blue and purple glitter finish. 

To finish, I have used one of the 'ATC Georgian Frames',

again finished in weathered white and added to my tag.

I hope that you like what I have created,
I am really happy with how these tags turned out.

Until next time!

Lisa

"Delight in Every Moment" by Amy Voorthuis

Hi there lovely 2Crafty fans,

Welcome to the blog, today I will show you a layout with some of my favorite 2Crafty chipboard pieces. Maybe some of you know I am also one of the Maja Design girls and when I got my DT package with the newest collection, I right away knew which pieces I wanted to use. I am a big fan of borders and anything swirly.

 2Crafty Chipboards used: 

Delight in Every Moment 

Aztec Feather

Corner Helena's 

Fine & Fancy Border

Firstly I coated the corner pieces, phrase and aztec feather with a thin layer of white gesso, then I used some gold embossing powder on the corners and white embossing powder on the phrase & feather after that I added some waxes in different shades to create more depth. 

The beautiful chipboard border is treated with some gold shimmer spray and some waxes. On the background paper I used a new stencil and I finished my layout of by adding some "say it in crystals" & some white spray.

'Create' layout by Rachael Funnell

 

Hello everyone!

Rach with you today sharing some more 2 Crafty inspiration...

where I have created this fun, little girly, little grungy, mixed media page.

And have included some great 2 Crafty Chipboard pieces.

2 Crafty Chipboard:

NEW Mini Scissors set

ATC - words 1

Aztec feathers

Mini Fob watches

Indian feathers

Starting with the super cute Mini Fob watch,

where I have ever so lightly added a coat of gesso...

Make sure not to take away any detail to the watch.

Next up is the Aztec feather, that I have partly sitting 

underneath my photo. Again using some gesso,

 I have given this feather 2 coats.

Also given 2 coats of gesso to the Indian feathers, 

and finished them off by blending a little bit of teal ink 

Lastly! For my title 'Create' & the New Mini Scissor I have sitting next right next to it.

Going with the same process by adding 2 coats of gesso, then inking the 'Create' 

with brown & the Mini Scissor, inking it lightly with an apricot.

Thanks for stopping by, 

I hope you have a FABULOUS week

Simple Moments Make Great Memories by Sabrina Turpin

 Hello 2Crafty friends!

I hope you're all doing well!
Today I'd like to share a layout featuring my two pre-teens showing how much they
like when I take picture of them! My son in particular really dislike any form of photo shoot
so when I asked him to take the pose with his sister he wasn't cooperating much!

"Simple Moments Make Great Memories"

For the "Aztec Feathers", I applied some teal embossing powder

 then rubbed a bit of purple wax on top.

On the "Aztec Flower Set 1", I applied one coat of black gesso, rubbed a bit of purple wax
and finally dabbed some teal metallic embossing ink. For the "Decorative Doily", I used
two coats of teal shimmering paint and dabbed some silver embossing ink.

For the title, "Simple Moments make Great Memories", 

I applied two coats of silver embossing ink.

I used the following 2Crafty chipboards in this layout:

Aztec Feathers [m00812]

Aztec Flower Set 1 [m00810]

Decorative Doily [m00818]

Simple Moments make Great Memories [w00567]

That's all for me today!
I hope you enjoyed my creation and that it gave you some ideas for your own creations!
I'll be back in a few weeks with a new layout to share. 

See you soon!

"Just Me" Layout by Marie Sabatier

Here is my second page for this month of May.

I chose to make a page a little different from my normal habits but it is good
 to change a few times.

I chose a photo of my little girl. I changed the background of my photo to black to contrast with the color of her dress.

"Just Me"

2Crafty Chipboards used :

- Just Me Title

- 12 X 12 clock faces

- Leafy Shrub Set 1

- Aztec Feathers

I applied a layer of white gesso on the chipboards.

For the "Aztec feathers", I applied a quick-drying metallic gloss paint in dark gray color, then an "Tin Roof Rusted" embossing powder to add texture.

For the rest of the chipboards I have only embossed with the color "Purely white" to obtain a clean and shiny effect.

I wanted to highlight the chipboards and I quite like the result. I hope you too?

I loved creating this page a little different from my comfort zone but still with these magnificent chipboards!

Thank you for your visit, see you soon.

Remember the past by Elena Martynova

Hi dear friends!

It's Elena Martynova here today and I'm so excited 

to share my new layout.

Less than two weeks left before the onset of winter.
I look forward to preparing for the Christmas holidays
 and this mood seeps even into the works :)))

Although the background of the layout is quite monochrome,
I supplemented it with bright red colors reminiscent of the upcoming holidays.

The photo always becomes the main element on the layout. 

To decorate it I used a gorgeous chip Poppy's Ornate Frame .

I usually paint the chip first and then continue to decorate 

with embossing powders, glitter and pastes. 

But this time I covered it with a transparent medium and applied bronze powder.

 It is not laid evenly and here and there looks through 

the gray color of the raw chip. That's the effect I wanted.

How I love those fishnet Aztec Feathers!

I decorated them with Golden powder to emphasize their splendor!

To create dynamics on the layout I added Geometric Arrows on opposite corners.

 Also, my idea is promoted by a sheet of black paper, with the edges cut diagonally.

I used paper from the collections by 49&Market. 

The black sheet was covered with a transparent medium, 

with the help of 7 DOTs Studio stamp and Lindy's embossing powder

 I added textures and then painted  red spray.

 

Thank you for visiting,have a lovely crafty day!

A Whimsy & Delicate Layout with Emma

Hello 2Crafty friends,

It's the end of the month which means I, Emma, will be sharing with you all today.

I made something a little more feminine for me with this page.

And I love the chipboard pieces used on it too.

The chipboard I chose for this page are.....

4" Mandala No.1
4" Mandala No.2

Aztec Feathers

Delicate and feminine.

I decided to keep the finish on the chipboard very soft and simple also.

I used Finnabair Metallique Acrylic paints on the feathers as it covers so perfectly and with such ease over the chipboard. Plus it has such a beautiful sheen once dry.

 At the completion of my page I scattered some Prills over my elements including the chipboard.

The Mandalas are also painted with the same acrylic paint as the feathers, so that they complimented each other. I kept Mandala No.1 whole but with Mandala No.2 I cut it in half and layered the 2 halves on top of each other. 

Just love how delicate this chipboard is.

Look how much shine comes from the chipboard. Just love this Mandala, it's one of my favourites.

I hope this page has inspired you a little, maybe for an end of month boost.

I will see you all very soon.

Em xx
