"Sunshine & Blue Skies" Layout by Marie Sabatier

Hello everyone,

I hope everyone is doing well! 

For my new project this August, I designed a summer layout.

The photo shows my little niece exploring the sandy beaches of Mauritius and its treasures.

Receiving new photos that stimulate my creativity is always a source of joy for me.

"Sunshine & Blue Skies"

The chipboard used:

- "Sunshine & Blue Skies"

- 6" Circle Revolution Frames

- Anchor & Buoy Set

- Intricate Seahorses

- Mini Bubbles Squares Clumps

- Mini Word Set 4

After finding the chipboards that inspired me to create my layout, 

I start by applying a layer of white gesso.

The "Circle Revolution", "Buoy", "Mini Bubbles" and the mini word "Explore" 

were embellished with a white embossing powder.

 To finish off the base group I added "Mini Bubbles Square Clumps" particle board. Divided in two. 

It brings a little touch of fantasy.

The white sets it apart from paper embellishments.

I chose a Distress embossing 'Faded jeans' powder for the other chipboards but I suspect that I have it for a while and that I have a "grainy" effect. 

But in the end I liked the result, it gives a "sand" aspect (lol)!

Another way to use the beautiful 2Crafty chipboards is presented here!

It is available from your favorite seller or directly on https://2crafty.com.au/.

Thank you very much!

November Inspiration By Kareen Dion

Hello 2Crafty fans!

So it's my turn this month to present you my inspiration.

November already! As it's almost winter here in Canada, it's that the time 

of the year where we begin to think about Christmas...but I'm so not ready yet!

So today, I'll show you a sunny creation and a winter creation! 

 **Friends**

For my first layout, I wanted to have a sunny page.

I chose a picture of a friend of mine with myself. 

I used the Palm Leaves Set embossing with white powder.

I also used Squiggle Border embossing with a soft pink powder. I love this border,

it enhances the layout perfectly! And for the title, I used the word friends from the

Arrow Word Set 2, & I also embossed it with white embossing powder.

**Magical**

For my second layout, I chose a more wintery picture.
I have worked with red and turquoise colors here, I love them together!

On the background I used the Mini Bubble Square with embossing powder.
With red embossing powder, I also used the Corner Geneive behind my picture and a flair.
I added the perfect Linear Snowflakes and finished with the magical title from Fine Word Set 2.
