Cherish this Moment by Tania Ridgwell

Hello there!

Tania popping in today to share the last of my DT projects for November.  I have created a layout.

"Cherish This Moment"

2 Crafty Chipboard Used:

*Fine Leafy Bush

*Dana's Ornate Rectangle Frame

*12x12 Fine Floral Love Frame

*Mini Title Stick Set 5

*Mollie's Butterfly Set

I used the gorgeous Mintay City of Love Collection to create the base for my Layout.

I gave the 12x12 Fine Floral Love Frame a coat of gesso and once dry I then painted it with Pearl Mont Marte Shimmer Paint.  I then added it to my background page. I kept the Dana's Ornate Rectangle Frame raw as I think it suited the colours in the papers.  I added my photo and then it to my page.

 I embellished my page with lots of pretty blooms.  I gave the Fine Leafy Bush a coat of gesso and once dry I cut it up into sections and tucked in in amongst the blooms.  I painted the Mollie's Butterfly Solid chippies with some green acrylic paint and tucked them into the blooms too.  To finish off my my I added a couple of raw chippie titles from the Mini Title Stick Set 5.

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

 Until next time thanks so much for stopping by.

"Love You Long Time" by Amy Voorthuis

 Good morning lovely 2Crafty friends, 

Today is my turn to show you some inspiration on this amazing blog. For this occasion I made a layout this time I have used some beautiful pastel tones more my style. Again I have used a baby picture of our Abbey two weeks after she was born relaxing in a deep sleep. This layout was created with the "Little One" collection by Graphic 45 and a whole bunch of beautiful 2Crafty Chipboard pieces as shown below. 

Love You Long Time: 

2Crafty Chipboards used: 
Your First Breath Title
Groovy Flowers 
Ava's Butterflies
6x4 Phrase Set 4
Mini Title Stick Set 3
Baby Girl Title
2019's 
Baby Pram Set
Mini Buttons 
Dana's Ornate Rectangle Frame -NEW-

Please Note: 2Crafty is now available to retail customers via their new website
www.2crafty.com.au, so if you don't have a local stockist you can now buy direct.
Open to most countries if shipping allows.

All the chipboard pieces are treated with two layers of white gesso. For both word sticks I only added some darker ink around the edges and then added some clear embossing powder I also did that with the rattle, babysock and safety pin. The Ava's Butterflies I sprayed with some gold yellow-ish spray I did that several times until I had the right color.

Both phrases are firstly sprayed and then I added two layers of green embossing powder on "Your First Breath" & "Girl" so that they would have a two toned color. The Dana's Ornate Rectangle Frame was painted with several matte pink colors then to soften it up I used some matte white wax and in the end I added some darker ink around the edges. The buttons, groofy flowers and 2019 I treated with two layers pink embossing powders and for the centers of the flowers I used screwheads and bended the leaves upwards.
