"this BOY" Layout by Marie Sabatier

Hello everyone,

I'm sharing with you my second inspiration for this June. 

With the birth of our third grandson, I'm receiving so many new photos, and everything makes me want to scrapbook them. With this magnificent collection of paper, it's so easy.

"this BOY"

The chipboard used:

this-boy-title

dotty-star-frames

stars-pack

circle-tag-set-1

   

After selecting the chipboards, I protected them with a coat of white gesso.

Each chipboard was embellished in the same way.

I used "Distress Oxide" inks, in the shades "Dried Marigold" and "Stormy Sky."

I chose this beautiful "dotty-star-frames" to showcase my photograph.

I placed it in the background and interspersed the colors using both inks.

Amidst the paper embellishments, I find it simply sublime.

For the "circle-tag-set-1" chipboard, I finish by spraying it with water, then immediately dry it with a sheet of paper towel to achieve a muted effect.

I love using stars for a baby design.

This pack offers a lovely selection of stars: solid, hollow, small, and large.

Here I've completed it with this pretty embellishment from the collection.

I'm delighted with the transformation achieved on the chipboards. The colors are truly perfect.

I hope you enjoy the result.

If your retailer does not have some chipboards, you can go directly to the site to purchase.

Hello there everyone!

'This Boy'

 Some FABULOUS 2 Crafty Chipboard that I used...

Squiggly strips

2019

This boy (title)

Polaroid frame

the negative piece from the chain circle frame set

For the 'This BOY' title

I  gave it 2 coats of gesso..

Also did the same to the Polaroid frame

I have sitting out the right side of the photo.. 

One of my all time favorites 2 Crafty chipboard pieces

is the year dates, I tend to gravitate to

them everytime I am creating a page...

Here I have used a 2019 & inked with brown 

and adhering it to the polaroid frame

Another thing I tend to do is incorporate the leftover/negative

bits and here I have used a leftover piece from the 

chain circle frame set Inking it green and adhering it, 

which I think makes a great frame...

Lastly the awesome Squiggly strips

were heat embossed these with

Nuro Crimson gloss...

That's it from me today!

Until next time

Happy Crafting peeps!

This Boy by Marie Claude Rodier

Hi there,

Marie Claude here today to show you my latest 2Crafty Chipboard layout.

I started by randomly applying a light coat of mint wax over the Moroccan panel.

Once dried, I played with two tones of green Gelatos to create a verdigris look

 and then added a vintage gold coat of wax on top of it to replicate an antique finish.

I used a green-gold embossing powder over the title.

I dry brushed white gesso over the viney circle frame and a
few touches of white gold wax here and there.

I painted the lock green using Gelatos and highlighted it with gold wax and white gesso.

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.
