Sweet Christmas Treats Star Decoration by Tania Ridgwell

Hello there!

Tania joining you today to share the last of my DT projects for December and final project for 2023.
  I have altered a wooden Star Plaque.

"Merry Christmas Star Decoration"

2 Craft Products Used:

*Holly Flourish

*Star Bright Snowflakes

*Deer Set

*Card - Merry Xmas Words

I have used the gorgeous Paper Rose Studio Sweet Christmas Treats Collection to create this project.  Once I chose the paper for the background of my star plaque I set about decorating.

I fussy cut a large window scene from one of the papers from the collection and adhered it to the star.  I fussy cut lots of beautiful Poinsettias and Holly sprigs from the papers too and added them randomly around the window scene.

I coloured the Holly Flourish and Star Bright Snowflakes with Mont Marte Silver Paint.  Once my chippie pieces were dry I cut the Holly Flourish in half and tucked one of each of the halves into the Poinsettias along the right side of the star.  I added two of the Star Bright Snowflake chippies to the left of the star and the third to the right.

I added a couple of raw Deer chippies also tucking them into the fussy cut elements.  I added a few blooms around the poinsettias and finished off my Star plaque by adding a Merry Christmas chippie title from the Card - Merry Xmas Words pack which I painted with Silver Adirondack Metallics paint along the top. 

Thats' all from me today. 

 I would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and safe and Happy New Year with loved ones.

 Until next time thanks so much for stopping by and see you in the new year!!!

'Christmas Deers Tags' with Lisa Amiet

 

Hello all!
It's Lisa here today to share some Christmas inspiration with you!
I have created this set of two tags for my deerly-loved family :)

2Crafty products used:

For my first tag, I have used some of the 'Crystal Snowflakes',

I have embossed one in sparkle gold,
 and the other in glitter black embossing powders.

I have also used the 'Deer Set',

which I have embossed in a two-tone, 

glitter black for the bodies and

sparkle gold for their antlers.

For my second tag, I have used more of the 'Crystal Snowflakes',

again embossed in black and gold.

I have also used one of the 'Holly Vine Wreaths',

embossed in gold and layered with one of the

'Deer Head Set', which I have embossed in glitter black.

I hope that you like what I have created,
 and that it inspires you to create today!

Until next time!

'Merry Christmas Tags' With Lisa Amiet

 

Hello 2Crafty lovers!
It's Lisa here on the blog today to share some Christmas cheer with you!
I have created a set of tags.

2Crafty Chipboard used:

For my tags, I have started with a woodgrain base paper,

 and then added some stencilling. 

I have used one of the 'Holly Vine Wreaths',

that I have embossed with a black sparkle embossing powder.

I love the pop of the black against the bright Christmas colours,

 and that sparkle!!

I have also used one of the sentiments from the 'Christmas Fine Card Pack',

that I have also embossed in black sparkle. 

For my second tag, I have used the same base technique,

but then made it a little differently to the first.

For this one, I have used one of the 'Card Word Circles - Christmas' as my sentiment.

I have kept with the black sparkle finish. 

I have then used the 'Deer Set', again with the gorgeous black sparkle finish.

I have layered them and adhered to my tags. 

I really love the silhouette feel of the black finish to these pieces,

but then that sparkle just adds a little magic :)

I hope that you like what I have created.

Are you creating your own cards or tags this year?

Maybe these have inspired you to create some for this Christmas?

I hope so!

Until next time

"Me & My Dad" Layout and Video By Marie Sabatier

Hello everyone, 

I am happy to meet you again and to present my first page of this 

month of November  along with a step by step video.

I chose to make a page on the theme of Christmas, I like this period so much 

but this year I think it will be very difficult to share this celebration with the family

 with the new reconfinement measures taken in France.

I took this photo of my son with my grandson it was his first Christmas in 2019.

"Me and My Dad"

TO VIEW VIDEO CLICK HERE

2Crafty Chipboards used :

- Me & My Dad

- 12 X 12 Clock Faces

- Deer Set

- Stars

- Winter Twig

- 2019

- Merry Christmas Card Set Fine 

Here are some close-ups, but don't hesitate to watch the video for more details.

I wanted to feature chipboards on this page. 

I hope I have succeeded!

I mainly embellished each chipboard with 

Lindy's "White Purely" and "Chalk It Up" embossing powder.

Here on the Deer chipboards I like the sheer, shiny effect 

and I thought it was bold to add those words "Merry Christmas"

For the background I chose the "Clock Faces" chipboard board which I cut 

and I used this title "Me & My Dad" it was also obvious for my page.

A little reminder of the year!

Stars to shine!

Here I used the "Winter Twig" chipboards I really like their effect.

I added a lot of material to the bottom of my page to give relief and warmth. 

Finally, a few tone-on-tone flowers.

I hope I made you want to watch the video and gave you some inspiration.

See you soon!

"Christmas CHEER" layout by Marie Sabatier

This is my second page of this month and the last for this year.

What a pleasure to be able to share all these pages with 2CraftyChipboard fans!

 I chose to finish the year with a page in celebration and shine.

The Chipboard used :

- Christmas Cheer

- Festive frame

- Dasher With Sliegh

- Deer Set

- Wine Stars

I applied a layer of white gesso on each chipboard.

For the chipboard "Festive Frame" 

I applied a metallic acrylic paint "Stempunk copper" 

and then a gold-colored wax.

 For all other chipboards I applied a Perfect Pearls 

"Sunflower Sparkle" powder.

This gives a soft and silky effect.

For the title and a star I applied a powder embossed "Purely white"

I added a lot of glitter for a party effect.

I wish you to end the year, a lot of happiness, joy, 

love and inspiration to achieve beautiful 

creation with 2Craftychipboard!
