"love you long time" Layout by Marie Sabatier

Hello everyone,

Here's my second inspiration for July.

A nature-themed layout using this lovely "woodland set" chipboard.

"love you long time"

The chipboard used:

6x4-phrase-stick-set-4

diamond-chunk-bits

woodland-set

ivy-clusters

     

Surprisingly, I don't apply gesso to the chipboards!

And, I start my layout from the bottom up.

To decorate each chipboard, I use Distress Oxide inks. For the "woodland set" chipboard, I apply several shades of brown to achieve a harmonious finish. 

I then add a "stain" pattern using a stamp to add an extra touch of texture.

To add more texture to my arrangement, I added the "Diamond Chunks" chipboard using the "Worn Lipstick" shade. I started by applying a thin layer of white gesso, then proceeded to apply the color evenly.

I used the "rustic wilderness" and "mode lawn" shades to decorate the "ivi clusters" chipboards. It had been a while since I had used them. With a few strawberry embellishments, they fit in with the decor.

I cut out the "love you long time" chipboard, decorate it, then place it in a staggered pattern.

I am happy with the result and I hope you like it and find it inspiring.

Marie

       

Loving these moments By Marie Claude Rodier

Hello lovelies,

It’s my turn today to show you my latest creation using beautiful 2Cratfy chipboards.

I am really longing for spring... I can’t wait for sunnier days and warmer weathers.

It’s no surprise that I was drawn to brighter colors as my starting point for this layout.

"Loving these moments"

Loving these moments title was embossed with vintage gold powder.

Frame Oval Ornate was covered with dark teal embossing powder.

Ivy Clusters were covered with vintage gold wax and then
highlighted with copper and white gold waxes.

"Adventure" Inspiration by Marie Sabatier

Hello 2Crafty fans, I'm here to share another page with you this morning

This photo of my niece traveling to Santorini inspired me for the dark side
 but also for the ray of light.

I wanted to bring to this page a contrast of colors from the dark of the shade to the light of the light.

That's why I chose a dark page and I worked the chips in clear colors

I worked the chipboards the same way, I applied a layer of white gesso and then I applied bright metallic color

Mintgreen to bring clarity

Turquoise for contrast

Haematite to break colors

Some close-ups:

Gorgeous colour with the metallic finish

Close up of the gorgeous Ivy Cluster pieces above and the Edgar Swirl below

I then added embellishments, applied drops of inks to accentuate the colors and finally art stones to bring texture

The chips used:

- Adventure Cursive Word

- Circle Revolution Frame

- Iviclusters

- Edgar Swirls

Thank you for your visit!

I hope I have brought you some inspiration ....

'Treasure' Mixed Media Layout & Video with Kripa Koushik

Hello friends,

My first project share for this month is a scrapbook layout, scroll down for a Video tutorial.

 There are so many beautiful 2crafty chipboard pieces in the recent release, I was so tempted to use a handful to make this layout. Inspired by the autumn moodboards popping up in my instafeed this month, I chose to make a layout using Autumn leaves & Ivy clusters 2crafty chipboard pieces.

I love using photographs of my family & friends in my layouts and this page is no exception. The colour palette is centred around the colours in the photograph. Instead of using lace, I chose the Mandala No.2 chipboard in both 4 & 6 inches. I love how the background can be seen through the delicate chipboard. To ground the layers & cut through the pattern, Ive used a solid chipboard Formal Flourish in both the top & bottom clusters.

Here is a video tutorial of the layout.

Thank you for visiting today. 

I hope you enjoyed the video tutorial.

Creative hugs,

Kripa

Summer album by Elena Martynova

Hello my dear friends!!!

I'm always very sad when summer ends here in the northern hemisphere. And although
autumn is quite warm, but everyday it gets colder, the days are shorter and the rains
 interfere to go for a walk.

With my work I want to remind you about the past summer, about the riot of colors,
 singing birds and aromas of flowers.

"Life is Beautiful" - Summer Album

This album will store photos and records of the past summer. About sunsets,
 sunrises, meetings with friends and family, about joys and adventures.

This chipboard doily decorates the album cover.

I've used a collection of paper "Botany summer" by Fabrika Decoru.

Inside the envelope for photos.

 

I made two more envelopes from the rest of the paper.
