"Workmates' with Lisa Amiet

 

Hello 2Crafty fans!
Happy New Year!

It's Lisa here today with some crafty goodness to share with you.
I have been busy creating in my Grandfather's album,
this is what I have created. 

This spread is dedicated to Booth's, it was the place that my Grandfather worked back in the UK. 

These photos are some that I was able to find of his work, and one of him with his workmates. 

For this page, I have used some of the 'Chicken Barbed Wire Small',
that I have cut up into pieces. I have also used one of the 'Light Bulbs'.

I have left my chipboard raw as it goes with the work vibes. 

The handsome gentleman on the far left is my Grandfather :)

For this page, I have again used more of the 

'Chicken Barbed Wire Small', cut into pieces. 

I have also used one of the 'Giant Gears',
that I have layered with a metal sentiment.

I only have a couple more pages to go and then I have the cover to do. 

But it's all I have for you for now.

I will be back soon with more!

Until then

Lisa

'Todays Moments' with Lisa Amiet

 

Hello all!
It's Lisa back today to share some inspiration with you. 
I have been working some more on my album.

2Crafty Products used:

This time I have worked on the inside cover and the first single page, 

filling in the gaps :)

For the inside cover,

I have used some of the 'Scrabble Tiles',

left raw to go with my vintage feel.

I have also used one of the 'Light Bulbs'.

I have also used one of the 'Mini Family Icons',

layered with elements from my papers.

For this page, I have used some of the 'Fencing Wire Panel',

that I have cut up and added into my layers. 

I have also used some of the 'Steampunk Gears Small',

 in among my layers and paper elements. 

Lastly, I have used one of the '6 x 4 Phrase Stick Set 5',

which I have cut in half and adhered to the bottom of my page. 

I have then finished with one of the 'Geometric Arrows' 

I hope that you like how my album is coming along. 

I'm on a roll with it now!

Until next time!

Lisa 

Love by Sabrina Turpin

Hello 2Crafty friends!

Summer time is here in Canada and along with it some much needed vacations!
The layout I am sharing today features my teen son as he "borrowed" my sunglasses because
the sun was too strong to his taste.

"Love"

On the "Light bulb word set" and the "Light Bulbs", I applied brown ink and a bit of gold wax on top.

For the "Steampunk Strips", I used black paint with silver and gold glitters in it. I ripped the "Brick panel" chipboard to make multiple pieces and applied two coats of green metallic paint. Then I applied black ink on the borders.

For the "Frames Tiny Henri's", I rubbed some gold wax and black ink on top, letting a bit
the original chipboard color show through.

I used the following 2Crafty chipboards in this layout:

Light bulb word set 1 [M00803]

Light bulbs [M00457]

Steampunk Strips [M00781]

Brick Panel [660038]

Frames Tiny Henri's [FR0068]

Steampunk Gears Medium [M00646]

That's all for me today!
I'll be back in a few weeks with another layout to share with you!
Until then, happy crafting!

 

'Not All Who Wander Are Lost' Lisa Amiet

Hello all!

It's Lisa here on the blog today to share some

inspiration with you.

I have another insert page

 for the album, I am creating for my Grandfather, 

using some of his awesome photos.

2Crafty Products used:

My Grandfather was also very interested in bicycle riding,

so that is the theme of this page. 

I have used some of the 'Steampunk Gears Small',

that I have inked in dark brown.

I love the vintage feel I am creating with this album.

I have also used one of the 'Pointing Finger Signs',

that I have left raw and adhered to the top of my page.

I have used one of the 'Frame Small Postage Stamp',

that I have again inked with dark brown ink,

along with a few of the 'Steampunk Gears Medium'.

For this next part, I have used one of the 'Tiny Film Strips',

inked in brown. I have also used one of the 'Light Bulbs',

that I have left raw.

For this final part of the page, I have used one of the 'Pen Nibs',

also left raw, layered with some of my embellishments.

I am really loving how this album is pulling together,

there are so many awesome 2Crafty Chipboard pieces,

 that I can use with the theme I am going for.

I hope you like it too!

Until next time!
