"beauty" Layout by Marie Sabatier

Hello everyone,

Here's my second creation of November.

I was inspired by this beautiful paper from the "Echoes of Time" collection. I selected a photo of my great-niece in her beautiful romantic dancer outfit, as well as some stunning chipboards, including my favorite, the "frame-oval-ornate."

"beauty"

The chipboard used:

mini-word-set-1

frame-oval-ornate

foliage-set-15

steampunk-gears-medium

       

To decorate the chipboards, I use 49 and Market inks. After applying an even layer of white gesso to each element, I choose the shades "Lavender Kisses" and "Fossil" and apply them randomly with a foam applicator. To break up the uniformity, I add a few rub-on transfers.

On the right side of my photograph, I'm creating a bouquet of flowers. I've incorporated "steampunk-gears-medium" chipboards among the flowers, adding a unique dimension to the whole.

I use the new foliage models "foliage set 15" to decorate my beautification group.

To finalize everything, I chose the words "capture" and "beauty" 

Finally, in order to ensure visual consistency between the two groups of embellishments, I integrate butterflies as connecting elements.

Thank you for taking the time to look.

Good scrap!

Marie

        

 

'Spring Cards' with Lisa Amiet

 

Hello all!
It's Lisa here today to share some spring inspiration with you.
I am soooo glad that Spring is finally here!

I have created a pair of cards
with lots of spring florals. 

2Crafty Products used:

For my first card, I have used one of the 'ATC Georgian Frames',
layered with one of the words from the 'Mini Word Set 1'.

I have painted the frame white and the title purple to match my papers.

I have also used one of the branches from 'Foliage Set 8'.

I have finished it first in white and then roughly painted the ends purple. 

I have also used one of 'Gigi's Flowers',

also finished in white.

For my second card, I have again used one of the branches from 'Foliage Set 8'.

again with the same white and purple finish. 

I have used one of the 'Flower Doilies', finished in white,

and layered with another of the words from the 'Mini Word Set 1',

painted purple. 

Lastly, I have used another of 'Gigi's Flowers',
finished in white and tucked into my layers.

 

That's all from me today, hope you liked these cards.

 

 

'Australiana Cards' with Lisa Amiet

 

Hello all!
It's Lisa here on the blog today to share
 some gorgeous Australiana cards with you.

2Crafty Chipboard products used:

For these cards, I have used some Australian themed papers,
but the chipboard pieces I have chosen could be used for any theme :)

I have used some of the 'Fencing Wire Panel',
that I have left raw and cut up to use in my layers.

I have also used some of the gorgeous 'Lattice Leaves',
that I have finished in white and tucked in among my foliage layers. 

I have also used some of the 'Mini Word Set 1'
as my sentiments for the cards. 

I really love how these turned out. 

These chipboard pieces just pull the cards together and give them that
Australiana feels I was going for.

A bonus is that all of the products used on these are
designed and manufactured by Australian companies, 

which I LOVE!

Until next time!

Capture, a beach layout by Marie Claude Rodier

Hi,

I am happy to be here today to show you

a new layout I made for 2Crafty Chipboards.

"Capture"

This funny picture of my oldest son taken during our family vacation

last summer was my starting point for this layout.

Small Film Strips were embossed with dark blue embossing powder

and distressed with touches of white gesso.

Clock Face Disks were basecoated with black gesso and embellished with mystic blue wax.

Some parts were sanded to recreate a worn effect.

White gesso was also added here and there.



Capture title from Mini Word Set 1 was painted with navy acrylic paint
and distressed with white gesso.

See you soon, until then happy scrapping!



February Inspiration "Amazing" Layout by Lisa Amiet

Hello 2Crafty fans!

It's Lisa here today to share my latest creation with you.

'Amazing'

So my daughter found this gate door on her travels and what a perfect

 photo opportunity!

I have used a few different chipboard designs on this layout

 I have used some of the 'Fern Leaf Set', 

which I have finished in different colours. 

Some of them are a peachy coral colour to coordinate with my papers. 

There is also another that is a multi toned blue and green finish. 

I achieved this by using gesso and painting on some mist colours. 

I have also used a couple of the 'Fine & Fancy Butterfly Set',

which I have finished in a lemon yellow and coral colour.

Lots of layers and dimension. 

For my title I have used the word amazing from the 'Mini Word Set 1',

that I have also finished in a coral colour. 

I really love the colours in this collection and the chipboard pieces work perfectly with the theme.

I hope you like what I have created and that it inspires you to create today too.

Lisa
