Love you by Sabrina Turpin

Hello 2Crafty fans,

I'm back with a new layout to reveal, featuring my husband and I in a picture we took during an impromptu night out a few days before Halloween. We had an amazing time on that unexpected evening and took this picture without noticing the skull behind us!

This first picture was taken while the work was still in progress. I took it so I could give you a better look at the background and at the "Bubble Clumps" chipboard on which I applied blue metallic embossing enamel.

On the "Foliage Set 3", I used diluted metallic teal paint and inked the contour with black ink. 

On the title, "Love you", I used bronze-gold metallized embossing powder.

This is a different angle showing the result on the "Love you" title.

On this layout, I used the following chipboards:

Bumble Clumps [m00561]

Foliage Set 3 [m00569]

Love You [w00237]

That's all for today! I hope you enjoyed this layout and it gave you ideas for your own creations! See you soon with more ideas!

"Treasure" by Sabrina Turpin

Hi 2Crafty friends!

Today I would like to share with you a layout I just completed that features my daughter
 Mila, having just undone her braids. Now proud of her wavy hair as we're visiting an
 indoor surf center. I wanted to prepare a fitting layout, with a warm, Hawaiian feel.

For the title, "Treasure", part of the "Fine Word Set 1", I used a shabby white embossing enamel.

  For the "Dreamcatchers" chipboard, behind the picture, I used a bronze embossing powder.

For the "Foliage Set 3", I used a blue-gold opaline paint and inked the board with a black ink.

On the "Indian Feathers", at the top-left of the flowers, I roughly applied black ink on the

 contours while leaving the chipboards their natural color. For the other "Indian Feathers",

 on each side of the title, I used rose-gold wax and traced the groves with a black ink pen. 

I also inked the border of the feathers with black ink.

That's all for today! I hope you like the result and that it inspired you for
 your own creations! See you soon with more ideas!

June Inspiration by Sabrina Turpin

Hello Everyone!

Weather is warming up as summer is finally approaching here in Canada after a cold, cold winter! I had the chance to do some nice spring sunbathing last week, taking a fun selfie which inspired me for a layout with the awesome 2Crafty chipboard products! Without further ado, I'm revealing my "live everyday with intention" layout:

I've inked the "Foliage Set 3" with pink embossing ink and then stamped a white embossing ink on top to give it a nice texture. Finally, I traced the contour with black ink to give more shadow and make it pop out more.

For the "Flower Medallions", I applied a shabby blue enamel powder. I left the "Interlocking Grid Panel" untouched because I loved the look and different texture it brought to the page.

Finally, I painted the "live everyday with intention" title with diluted metallic gray paint so it blends better while still standing out.

For this layout, I used these following products:

Live everyday with intention: W00226

Foliage Set 3 : M00569

Flower Medallions: M00422

Interlocking Grid Panel: 660033

That's all for today! I hope this layout brought you some ideas for your next creations! See you soon for another reveal.

October Inspiration by Debbie Burns

Hi everyone, Debbie here with you today to share my October projects. 

"Beauty"

I love this time of the year.  Usually the temps are on the cool side and the leaves are changing colors,  but so far we've had an unseasonably warm Autumn.  Thoughts of Autumn past spun around in my head and lead to me create this layout featuring a picture of my grandmother.  I was also inspired by the October Challenge at Words &  Paintery.  I added several colors of distress stain to my background paper along with some stamping, micro beads and glass glitter.

I love the detailed Marianne's Butterfly.  I embossed it with some Nutmeg 

embossing powder and added paprika, twig  and gold micro beads.

Lots of warms Autumn colors.  The Corner Vine Leaves embossed with Sage embossing powder,

  the Large Leafy Vine embossed dark brown and beneath them I used the Corner Lorena, embossed with an antique teal powder.  

Tucked under my photo I used the Large Leafy Vine, Corner Vine Leaves and
Mini Flourish Bits, and my title is from the Mini Word Set 1.

My next layout features my friend's beautiful daughter.

"Be Your Own Kind of Beautiful"

Soft colors adorn this layout from the background paper with added distress stains,
stamping and paint splatters, with detailed chipboard that encircle the photo along
with flowers edged in gold glitter.

The Celebration Swirls and 6" Circle Dot Frame were embossed teal.  The Decorative Disc Set 1

 and Foliage Set 3 embossed gold.  Gold microbeads were added to the Celebrations Swirls.

Here you can see more of the Foliage Set 3 and Celebration Swirls.

In keeping with the color scheme, I embossed the title an antique teal.
