'Let Your Light Shine' by Lisa Griffith

Hello 2 Crafty Chipboard fans! Lisa here to share with you two projects, the first one is a layout inspired by my little boy. 'Let Your Light Shine'

2 Crafty Chipboard pieces used:

'Cog Border'

'Heart Silhouettes'

'Let Your Light Shine'

I knew I wanted to use the amazing piece called 'Cog Border' in a boyish super grungy 

layout so I embossed it with black and chunky gold embossing powders really unevenly 

to make it look like rusted metal. Then I cut up the border into smaller pieces and tucked them 

into my layers made of vintage book paper and some pieces of an old pair of my sons jeans.

I treated the title piece 'Let Your Light Shine' and the 

'Silhouette Hearts' the same way, with gold embossing powder 

and I love the way they turned out.

My second project is a layout done on a 8 X10 Prima 'Paintable'.

'A Glimpse Of You'

2 Crafty Chipboard used:

'A Glimpse of You'

'Skeleton Leaves'

'Avery Vines'

For all the chipboards I used on this project I first covered them with white gesso, 

and then colored them with inks in green, cinnamon brown, and orange.

This title piece 'A Glimpse of You' is so perfect for a vintage photo of my Grandma

tucked into some fall coloured flowers.

I hope I have inspired you a little and shown you how to make 2 Crafty Chipboard work well 

in a super grungy layout or make it delicate and pretty, it's all up to you!

Happy Crafting!
