"You" Layout with Amy Voorthuis

Hello and good morning lovely 2Crafty friend.
How wonderful of you all to stop by the 2Crafty blog, this is my second layout for the month of July. This time it's a layout of my husband who started his own company this may. After two of his former employments went bankrupt he had enough. His last job was fixing electric bikes for the company STELLA. Now he does the same but for himself his company's name is JEBT, Vanessa the boss lady was kind enough to make his bike logo in chipboard which I used on this layout.
 Enjoy this post....

I coloured the amazing bikes with my green aqua markers and matted the bikes with some of the papers I used in my layout. Then I added two different matte waxes brown & white. I couldn't not add flowers it's so hard not too lol

 Hi everyone!
I am back to share my next layout! 
A masculine layout I created of my husband, stepson and friend working on Sebastian's motor.

2Crafty Products used;

Harlequin Clumps
Line Words Good Times
Grungy Splatter Bits
Mini Checkerboard Bits
Steampunk Gears Small
Steampunk Gears Medium
Steampunk Gear Border
Hanging Steampunk Lightbulb Set

I covered all of the chipboard pieces with texture paste then I began painting, misting and inking each piece

I used pumpkin impasto paint first then added some blue brusho powder and Lindy's cattail brown mist.  I wanted each piece to be different.

To highlight the texture on each chipboard piece I dry brushed white paint and then added some art stones that I dyed to match.

I wanted the title to stand out from grungy background and to accomplish that I painted a few coats of the pumpkin impasto paint then heat embossed it with orange embossing powder.

Thanks for stopping  by

'You are Awesome' with Lisa Amiet

 
Hello all!
It's Lisa here today to share some scrappy inspiration with you.
I have created this layout featuring my son.

 

 

2Crafty products used:

 'Hanging Steampunk Lightbulb Set'

'Circle Maze Set'

'Steampunk Light Bulbs'

'Star Bubbles' 

 

 

 For this layout, I used one 
of the 'Star Bubbles',

that I inked black,
 and tucked under the corner of my photo.  

 

 

 I also used one of the 
'Hanging Steampunk Lightbulb Set',

again inked black, and adhered 
hanging from the top of my page.  

 

 

I then used one of the 'Circle Maze Set', inked black 
and with a star element glued to the middle.  

 

 

I then used one of the 'Steampunk Lightbulbs',

 inked black, and adhered above the maze piece. 

 

 

 

 I really love how the black makes the chipboard pop 
on the brick background paper.

 

I really love how this layout turned out.
I will be back soon with some more 2Crafty goodness to share.

 

Until then,

Lisa
