Summer - Laura Gilhuly

 Hi everyone! 

 Summer is just about over here and I miss it already!

My layout today, captures a wonderful beach day.

2Crafty Products Used:

Seaweed Set 1
Mini Lattice Bits
Line Words - Summer
Photo Adornment - Decorative Rode Set 1

Intricate Seahorses
Mini Title Stick Set 5

I always prep my chipboard with gesso before I colour them, this helps to intensify the 
colour you add on top, otherwise some colours get lost into the chipboard.

I wanted to coordinate the chipboard with the beautiful papers so I coloured the pieces with magicals powders, brusho powders and mists.  I then used some black ink on the edges, defining them more.

For the title Sticks I coloured the pieces with a sandy coloured powder and then inked it over in
black so the words stood out.

Thanks for stopping by, see you again soon.

#CHERISH #LOVE Altered Frame by Tania Ridgwell

Hi there!

Tania popping in today to share the first of my DT projects for February.
  I have altered a wooden frame that I had in my stash!

"#CHERISH #LOVE"

2 Crafty Products Used:

*Corner Arches

*Mini # Word Set 1

*Mini Title Stick Set 5

*Poppy's Ornate Frame

I have used the beautiful Mintay 'Mamarazzi' Collection to create the bases inside each
 section of the Frame.

I coloured the Poppy's Ornate Frame & Fantastic Day (from the Mini Title Stick Set 5) chippies using Aged Mahogany Distress Ink and then randomly dabbed on some Brush Leaf Interior Antique Gold Paint to them.   The Corner Arches & #LOVE and #CHERISH (from the Mini # Word Set 1) chippies

were coloured with Brush Leaf Interior Antique Gold Paint.

To decorate the frame I added layers of Frames from the 49 & Market Krafty Garden Stacked Frames under my photo.  I cut the Poppy's Ornate Frame chippie in half and tucked one half in under each end of my photo.  Added a Corner Arch and Title chippie to each side of the frame.  I then embellished the frame with lots of beautiful blooms and finished it of by tucking in the Fantastic Day chippie along the top of my photo.

Thats' all from me today, I hope I have inspired you all with my altered Frame.  Until next time thanks so much for stopping by.

Priceless Memory by Tania Ridgwell

 Hello there! 

Tania joining you today to share the last of my DT projects for August. 
  I have created a layout for my second share.

2 Crafty Chipboard Used:

*Corner Whispy Vines

*Mini Title Stick Set 5

*Priceless Memory Title

*Frame Messy Squares 6"

I have used the gorgeous 49 & Market 'Nature's Haven' Collection to create the base for my layout.  

I first gave all my chippie pieces a couple of coats of gesso.  Once dry I mixed some Pink Heidi Swapp Color Shine with some more gesso and painted it onto the Messy Square chippie.  I did the same with the Corner Whispy Vine chippies but instead used Citron Heidi Swapp Color Shine to colour them.  I also randomly added a little Pink/gesso mix to the the Corner Whispy Vine Chippies.  For the Priceless Memory Title chippie I added the Pink/gesso mix to it and once dry I added another coat of gesso over top.

I added the Messy Square Frame chippie to my photo attaching it on an angle and then added it to my base page.  I added a Corner Whispy Vine chippie to each side of my photo.  Embellished around my photo with lots of paper blooms and finished off my layout by adding the Priceless Memory Title chippie and a couple of smaller chippie Titles from the Mini Title Stick Set 5.

Thats' all from me today, I hope I have inspired you all a little with my Layout.
  Until next time thanks so much for stopping by.

'Love this Memory' with Lisa Amiet

 Hello 2Crafty lovers!
It's Lisa here today to share some scrappy inspiration with you.

'Love this Memory'

 

 

2Crafty products used:

 

 'Half Floral Page Border'

'Lattice Leaves'
 'Mini Title Stick Set 5'

 

 

 

For this layout I used the 'Half Floral Page Border', 
which I have tucked into the torn layers of my papers.

I have left my chipboard raw for this layout 
because it goes so well with my papers.

 

 I also used a few of the double 'Lattice Leaves', 
also left raw and tucked into my torn paper layers.

 

 

 

 I then used a couple of the single 'Lattice Leaves'

that I have tucked around the corner flower cluster on my page.  

 

I then used one of the sentiments from the
'Mini Title Stick Set 5'
under the stick sentiment.

 I really love how well this layout turned out 
and I love the feel of the raw chipboard.

I will be back soon with some more to share with you.

Until then

"Amazing Day" Layout by Marie Sabatier

Hello everyone,

My first inspiration for this month of October is a layout with several photos.

In France, autumn has started well. This time of year is really nice, 

especially with these colors: orange, yellow and green.

Amazing Day

The chipboard used:

- Amazing Day Title

- Mini Title Stick 5

- Field Mushrooms

- Foliage Set 10

 

To embellish my layout I chose these beautiful mushrooms that go so well for an autumn arrangement. 

After applying a layer of transparent gesso, I use "Distress Oxide" inks with a water tank brush.

Once painted, they are so cute!

To get more relief, I added some foliage and painted it in the color 'peeled paint'.

The title "Amazing Day" is matched by two colors: "brushed corduroy" and "vintage photo".

I had the idea to include a short sentence. 

I reproduce the process on the right side by adding a tree trunk.

I hope you will appreciate this arrangement.

If unfortunately your favorite store does not carry these particle boards, you can find them direct at https://2crafty.com.au/

Thank you very much!

Marie

        

"fantastic day" Layout by Marie Sabatier

 Hello everyone,

Here is my second inspiration for this month of February, a layout inspired 

by the theme of travel with a grunge style. 

Using a photo of my grandson posing. I love it!

"fantastic day"

The 2CraftyChipbord used:

- Mini Title Stick Set 5

- 12 X 12 Clock Face Frames

- Stars Pack

- Geometric Arrows

- Steampunk Arrow Set 1

- Steampunk Gears Small 

- Industrial Light Bulbs

I apply a layer of white gesso, I repeat myself systematically during each presentation, 

but I prefer to mention it. 

Mostly, I used Oxide Distress inks. 

I started with the chipboard "Clock Face Frame", I love it so much. 

To embellish it, I use the color "Frayed Burlap"

I then embellished the "Stars" with the colors "rustic wilderness" and "mustard seed, 

by not applying myself, to give an aged effect.

On the chipboard "Steampunk arrow" I mixed the colors "faded jeans" and "rustic wilderness". 

By combining different colors, I was able to superimpose the chipboards while leaving them visible.

I left the chipboards "Mini Title" in a natural way, they harmonize so well!

Playing with these beautiful chipboards is a real pleasure, they perfectly sublimate a layout.

Good scrap!

Marie
