LAYOUT - Memories by Elena Martynova

Hello my creative friends!

Today I want to show you my new layout for 2CRAFTY CHIPBOARD and CSI Challenge! 

The new board is truly inspiring. I created a romantic layout with the paper by 49 &Market.

Join to Challenge and create any projects inspired by the Moodboard.

I used four pieces of 2Crafty chipboard:

Memories

Lavendar Shrub 

Flower Medallions

Scrabble Tiles

I took two contrasting sheets from different collections. I love to mix. 

I also made a more interesting background with the stamps and stencils.

The title Memories was covered with "Marble-ous" powder by Lindy's. 

I sprinkled gold glitter on the chipboard Flower Medallions

Lavendar Shrub are covered with "Chalk it up" powder by Lindy's. 

The letters from the set of Scrabble Tiles I toned down at the edges with a black stamp pad.

Thank you for your attention and for being here.

I wish you a lot of inspiration and enjoy your favorite process!

With love, Elena

Some August Inspiration By Lisa Griffith

Hello 2 Crafty friends I have a couple of projects to show you today.

My first project is a light and dreamy layout.

'Dream'

I was in the mood to create something with an ultra feminine and 

shabby chic look with lots of pink :)

2 Crafty Chipboard pieces used:

'Dream'

'Viney Page Frame'

'Thistle Shrub'

'Lavendar Shrub'

One of my absolute favourite 2 Crafty chipboards is the 'Viney Page Frame'.

I like to cut it up into long pieces. Here I stamped it lightly with brown ink after painting

with white Acrylic Paint.

As with the other chipboards I painted the title piece with white acrylic paint, and 

then I brushed on some pink mist and then lastly I brushed the edges with brown ink.

My second project is an art journal spread.

'Inspire'

For this project I painted my chipboards white and then randomly

 brushed them with brown ink.

2 Crafty Chipboard pieces used:

'Moroccan Panel'

'Sybill's Name Plate'

'ATC Words'

See you soon,

 I based this layout on the July challenge at More than Words which
 is hosting a wonderful sketch this month and also White... with 1.

 I used the following 2Crafty Chipboards...
6" Circle Dot Frames
Fine Word Set 1
Lavender Shrub
Word Circles Set 1

I started by giving all my chipboards a coat of gesso. 

When dry, I colored the ''Lavendar Shrub'' and my title word ''Always'' from 

the ''Fine Word Set 1'' with Lindy's Stamp Gang magical powder ''Tilt-a-wheel teal''.

I cut a small piece of the ''Lavendar Shrub'' and used it for my small cluster here.

To frame my photo, I used a circle chipboard from the ''6 Circle Dot Frames''. 

I also colored it with Lindy's Stamp Gang magical powder ''Tilt-a-wheel teal''.

I heat embossed the word ''Smile'' from the ''Word Circles Set 1''

with Lindy's Stamp Gang ''Angel Wings Ruby'' embossing powder. 

''Dream''

 2Crafty Chiboards I used... 

ATC Words 1
ATC Butterflies
ATC Flourish 2
Flower Doilies
Leafy Shrub Set 1

Here is my video tutorial on how I made this canvas.

I have based my canvas on the July challenge at Prima Marketing PPP.

This time, I decided not to coat my chipboards with gesso as I usually do.

Instead, I painted them directly with Finnabair acrylic paints and the result was
 amazing. I really loved the result... I wish I could show you how they shine!

I painted the chipboards I used from the ''ATC Flourish 2'' 

and from the ''Leafy Shrub Set 1'' with ''Deep Waters'' acrylic paint.

I heat embossed the butterfly chippies from the ''ATC Butterflies'' 

with Ranger Distress Powder in ''Scattered Straw''. 

I also painted my flower doily from the ''Flower Doilies''
chipboard set with acrylic paint in ''Royal Red'' this time.

I treated my title word from ''ATC Words 1'' the same way as the Flower Doily.

 Well, that's all from me today...

Thank you for your time!
