‘"Moment" layout by Ro Miqueletto

Hello 2Crafty friends!  

Today I want to show you my new project for our collaboration with CSI Challenge Blog.
2Crafty Chipboard is one of the sponsors of the challenge this month.

"Moment"

Today I present a layout that shows the moment that I like to have every day!

2Crafty Chipboard used:

Moment Loopy Font
Moroccan Panel
Element Set 1.
Checkerboard Panel

To register this moment I used a title chipboad with a beautiful letter (Moment Loopy Font).
To highlight the title a cute arabesque chipboard (Element Set 1).

I love to decorate with arabesque theme and this very beautiful panel (Moroccan Panel).

This square chipboard stands out in some pieces of the layout.

I Hope you like it!

Until next time.

More Inspiration from Elisa Ablett

'Love that Smile' 

Hi Crafters,

Thanks for stopping by the Blog today.

Elisa here from the design team with my latest inspiration for you; 

a colourful boho style mixed media layout featuring some lovely pieces 

of 2Crafty Chipboard and a half mandala background design featuring 

the new Nuvo Shimmer Powders and Finnabair Metallic Wax.

2Crafty Products used:

Amelia Flower Stem - Large

Polaroid Frames

Love that Smile Title

Firstly, for my title I inked the chipboard in a metallic matching ink 

and then roughly coloured over the top with a darker purple paint marker, 

it matches perfectly with the script/handwriting of the title.

Next, I coloured the Polaroid frame in with a black glitter marker to 

create a solid base for my photo cluster and to make the 

colours pop a little more on my next piece of chippie.

For next piece of chipboard 'Amelia Flower Stem', I decided to alter by
first painting it black, then while still wet dipping it in the liquid made
by adding water to my Nuvo shimmer powders. I used the same shimmer powders
on my background as well to add colour and dimension to my mandala.

You can see that shimmer and shine happening on the chippie!

Add a bit of metallic wax by smoothing over the black modelling paste and the black chipboard

with a make up sponge or a dauber. Last details ! add some hand cut butterflies from acetate and paper to add to the boho look of your layout. You could also add feathers or wire or beads as well.

That's it from me today! 

I hope you been inspired to try your very own Boho style layout complete with awesome Chipboard!

Hugs xx

June Inspiration By Elisa Ablett"This Boy

Hi 2Crafty lovers,

Elisa here from the design team with my the first of my June projects for you,
a grungy mixed media boy layout featuring loads of 2Crafty Chipboard along
with stencils from A.B.Studio, distress ink, Aall and Create stamps and old book paper.

"This Boy"

Here are some close ups of the finer details !!

I wanted to distress and 'grunge up' my square frame, so using a
distress tool and black distress ink pad, I lightly inked the frame. 

I also added yellow details using a yellow pico embellisher.

I love using compasses on boy pages and I wanted to add little pops of yellow and 

teal to the page, so I inked both the compass chipboard to match the background.

Loads of stamping and stencilling in the background.

For the title to my page I inked the chipboard title 'this boy' with a metallic silver ink.

Then once dry I inked the bottom of my title in a blue distress ink.

More grungy stencilling and stamping, and some scribbly writing with a black pico embellisher.

Close ups of the finer details...

Tips for colouring your chipboard !

Tip 1 - use watercolour shimmer markers to colour your chipboard and 

add that layer of shimmer and shine.

Tip 2 - Use paint dabbers to create an ombre effect on your feather chippie pieces. 

Paint the top of the feather in one colour and then using the other paint dabber, 

colour the bottom of your feather and use the dabber to gently blend the two colours together. 

Tip 3 - Adding distressed foil accents to your chipboard pieces

Use a cheap glue stick and rub over your chippie pieces roughly. 

Using tweezers add foil flakes over the top of your glue areas. 

Let dry and then using a large stiff paintbrush, roughly brush

over the top of the chippie pieces, brushing off the excess foil leaving

distressed foil accents.

Thanks for stopping by the blog today, I would love it if you left me some feedback xx
