"Fun in the Sun" Layout and tutorial by Marie Sabatier

Hello everyone,

Here is my second inspiration for this month of August.

Back from a scorching summer, I really wanted to create a playful and sunny layout,
 as the title I chose indicates.
 The photos show my grandson, Milan, on his first vacation. 

I love the contrast of the color of his hat.

"Fun in the Sun"

I made a video tutorials that you can watch HERE

The chipboard used: 

fun-with-a-sun-title

sea-creatures

compass

seaweed-set

  

To begin, I apply a layer of white gesso.

With you, I'm testing the new Ranger inks from 49 and Market.

Each color is mentioned in the video, which you can watch on the YouTube channel.

It’s the first time I use the chipboards "Sea Creatures Set 1". 

I find them really adorable, and they match perfectly with my baby photos.

Following the first base layer, I proceed with the finishes by adding more shades to improve the hue.

Playing with these inks is pure joy!

I relied on the colors of the ball, and I must admit that I am satisfied with the result. 

I really like the whimsy of this title. It fits perfectly into my layout.

Watching the video is a good way to get more detail.

Thank you very much!

Marie

"Summer fun" Layout by Marie Sabatier

Hello everyone,

Exceptionally this month I will present you three projects, here is my second inspiration 

a layout on the theme of the sea and a photo in black and white. 

"Summer fun"

The 2Crafty chipboard used:

- Summer fun

- Intricate Seahorses

- Seaweed Set 3

- Mesh Bits

I don’t spend a summer without using these beautiful sea-themed chipboard models, 

especially these "Intricate seahorses" I love them.

Once my layout is decided, I look for the best shades to embellish the chipboards.

On the "Seaweed" chipboards I choose to use powder to emboss in different shades of blues.

For the "Seahorses" I opt for orange. 

On the right side of my photo I make a cluster by superimposing the chipboards. 

On the other side just a little reminder with also these "Mesh Bits" that I put around my photo.

The "Mesh Bits" were just coated with a gray metallic paint.

On the title it is also a metallic paint "Stormy Ocean" that I then rub with white gesso 

to attenuate the shine. 

I hope that this layout will seduce you, simple and effective everything I like.

I look forward to seeing you again very soon, thank you for your visit, 

always appreciated.

Marie
