Boho 'Love' with Lisa Amiet

 Hello all!

It's Lisa here on the blog today to share some inspiration with you.
I have created this layout featuring my daughter. 

2Crafty Products used:

I have started with a gorgeous base page and I have used some of the

  'Interlocking Grid Panel',

that I have left raw and cut into pieces. 

I have used one of the padlocks from the 'Keyholes & Locks' set,

tucked into my layers. 

I have also used one of the tiny little 'Butterflies'. 

Loving that grid!! I have layered some under and some over my papers. 

I have also used one of the 'Clock Disc Faces',

also tucked into my paper layers.

I hope that you like what I have created and that it has inspired you to create today!

Until next time!

Lisa

My Lovely Daughter By Jenny J.

Good morning everyone!

Here is my second January inspiration at 2Crafty.

You will see below all the gorgeous pieces that I've used on that layout.

2Crafty Chipboard Used

-Star circular frames

-Interlocking grid panel

-Isn't she lovely

-Foliage set 6

-Foliage set 1

-Dandelions

As usual, I've started by covering my background paper with clear gesso.  

Then, I've used modeling paste, 2 different stencils and some sprays to add a bit of textures.  

I've displayed my photo on layers of cardboard and papers and of course, 

a beautiful piece of 2Crafty chipboard: "Interlocking grid panel".  

Both  pieces of this set are treated with black gesso and Finnabair's waxes.

The "Star circular frame" on my photo is simply sprayed.

 That title, "Isn't she lovely" was the perfect one for my daughter's picture, don't you think?

That chippie is embossed with a gold embossing powder.

Below, you will see the "Dandelions" painted in white, 

and one piece of the "Foliage set 1", sprayed with the same color as the Star circular frame.

There's another piece of that set under the title ;)

Finally, the other pieces named previously:

"Interlocking grid panel"

"Foliage set 1" but also

"Foliage set 6" which is  embossed with a teal powder.

Tam's First October Share!

Good morning crafty ones!

Tam here today to share my latest 2Crafty Chipboard creation.

This one's titled:

"Special"

A fun bright page celebrating a special night away with my boy.

I used the following 2Crafty Chipboard:

"Special Script Title"

"ATC Tiny Hearts & Stars"

"Steampunk Gears Small"

"Steampunk Gears Medium"

"Interlocking Grid Panel"

I painted the "Interlocking Grid Panels" with black acrylic paint and cut them up and added them underneath my photo and layers.

The black against the gorgeous rainbow background really 'pops'.

I added some of the stars from the "ATC Tiny Hearts & Stars" randomly on the page.

I painted them with the same colour acrylic paint as the background.

I added a few clusters of both "Steampunk Gears Small" and "Steampunk Gears Medium".

I wanted them to look like they were cascading down the page - from top left to bottom right.

This helps create movement and flow.

I added paint in all of the colours used for the background. 

I didn't overthink it, just swiped it over and moved on to the next colour!

Just be rough and random!!

I love how the bright coloured paint ended up looking a bit rusty!!

To finish off the page, I added a Chippy Title -
Just love these and the loopy font ones are my favourite!!

I heat embossed the "Special Loopy Title" with white and I love that little pop of gloss.

So there you have it.....a bright, colourful layout....perfect for my boy.

Have you created with bold colours recently??

My number one tip is to always add black and white.  

It makes magic.

Love Tam

'Hello Handsome' by Hetty Hall

Hi there 2Crafty fans and welcome to the very last blog post for July.

Today I would like to share with you this boy layout. I love the grunge look of the background papers and I used quite a bit of gorgeous 2Crafty Chipboard on here.

2Crafty Chipboard Used:

- Mini Branches

- Interlocking Grid Panel

- Mini #Word set 1

- Word Circles Set 1

- Steampunk Gears Medium

- Swaying Branches

On this close up you can see the 'Mini Branches' which I covered in some ultra fine sage Flower Soft. It didn't just give it some colour but also some texture.

I added some Tim Holtz distress ink as well as randomly some Tim Holtz distress embossing powder in Weathered Wood to the 'Swaying Branches', again to give it some colour to match the layout and to give it a bit of texture.

Both the '#Handsome' title and the 'Interlocking Grid Panel' were embossed with Nuvo Fine Detail Copper Blush embossing powder.

Here is another close up of those gorgeous leaves, they compliment each other so well.

Flowers are from 49 and Market.

How gorgeous are those little 'Steampunk Gears'? They as well as the 'Hello Circle' sentiment were embossed with Nuvo Fine Detail Jet Black embossing powder. They tuck in nicely between the flowers and add just that bit of grunge.

Papers are Until Dawn by 13@rts.

So there you have it. July is nearly finished so hope to see you again in August for some more 2Crafty Chipboard inspiration.

Until next time.....
