Good morning lovely 2Crafty friends.
How wonderful of you all to stop by the 2Crafty blog, this is my second layout for the month of August. I wanted to use these papers for a while now but I forgot I had the perfect picture for it. Abbey had the perfect dress on in this picture that was made on one of our vacations to Greece.

 You Colour My World: 

Amazing 2Crafty Chipboard pieces used:
Bulldog Clip Set
11" Circle Revolution Frames
Textured Tile Bits
You Colour My World Title
Filigree Arrows
Foliage Set 13

All the chipboard pieces but the phrase "You Colour My World" are altered with black gesso. Then I used two matt waxes patina green & old white. I really love this colour combination teal & yellow it makes me happy. 

The phrase "You Colour My World" is altered with white gesso and some of my aqua/ alcohol twin markers. I just loved making this layout very much hope I inspired you to take out your 2Crafty Chipboard pieces.

"Today was Just Adorable " by Amy Voorthuis

Hi there lovely 2Crafty fans,
It's a lovely day to visit the blog, for today I have another layout to share with you. Lately I really love to use a little mixed media on my layouts like combining the very romantic stuff with a darker twist to it. This time I made all the beautiful chipboard pieces black which I later on painted to my likes. For this layout I used a picture of both our kids {Kevin & Abbey} Kevin was reading a book and I thought it was so sweet that I took a picture. 

Today was Just Adorable:

2Crafty Chipboards used: 
Elegant Flourishes
Cassie's Flourishes 
Word Circles Set 1
Corner Twisted Vines
Hinges Pack
Filigree Arrows
Just Adorable 
Clock Face Frames
Mini Title Stick Set 3
Mini Title Stick Set 1

All the pretty chipboard are treated with a layer of black gesso. Then I used several waxes and a dabber brush to make it look like real metal. In the end I added some color with acrylic paints to match my layout 

For my layout I have used some Maja Design papers and a new mould to frame my sweet picture with. For the background I have used a stencil and some sprays.
