"Priceless Memory" Layout by Marie Sabatier

Hello everyone,

For my second layout in September, I chose a beautiful and tender photo of my new granddaughter Lyana with her mother. This is the first layout I have created with a photo of Lyana, but it certainly will not be the last!

"Priceless Memory"

2Crafty Chipboard used:

Priceless Memory

corner-swirly-heart-set

foliage-set-18

To complement this precious memory, I selected the Priceless Memory, Corner Swirly Heart Set, and Foliage Set 18 chipboards. The large heart perfectly represents the bond between mother and daughter. The foliage blends naturally into the floral design of my layout, and the title was an obvious choice for this very special moment.

I started by covering all the chipboard pieces with a thin coat of white gesso before adding the colors.

I placed the large decorative heart from the Corner Swirly Heart Set beneath the photo, with one of its beautiful swirls extending under the embellishment cluster on the left. I colored the heart with Frayed Burlap Distress Oxide, then highlighted its edges with Vintage Photo to add more depth.

The heart is an important part of my composition and creates a lovely flowing movement beneath the photo. I applied the colors lightly to preserve all its delicate details, then added a few white splatters to help it blend with the rest of the layout.

I arranged the pieces from the "Foliage Set 18" around the photo and among the flowers. I used Bundled Sage Distress Oxide, along with highly diluted Arctic Blitz ink from 49 and Market, to create soft shades of green and blue that coordinate beautifully with the papers.

To finish, I colored the "Priceless Memory" title with Cappuccino ink from 49 and Market and added a few touches of Vintage Photo Distress Oxide. I kept the coloring even across the entire title so that it would blend harmoniously into the composition.

I really enjoyed combining these delicate chipboard pieces with the soft, floral atmosphere of this layout.

Thank you for stopping by today!

          

Todays Moments, Tomorrows Memories Mini Box Album by Tania Ridgwell

Hi there!

Tania joining you today to share the last of my DT projects for March.
  I have altered an Mini Box Album to share. 

"Todays Moments, Tomorrows Memories"

2 Crafty Chipboard Used:

*Corner Swirly Heart Set

*Lattice Leaves

*6x4 Phrase Stick Set 5

*Lacey Border Set 1

*Mini Lattice Bits

*Frame Ingrid's

I have used the beautiful Uniquely Creative "Boho Soul" Papers to decorate the Mini Album Box.

I used Brilliance Dew Drop Starlite Silver to colour the Mini Lattice Bits and Todays Moments, Tomorrows Memories (6x4 Phrase Stick Set 5) chippies.  The Corner Swirly Heart, Lattice Leaves, Lacey Border and Ingrid's Frame chippies have been coloured with Summer Sky Opal Polish. 

I constructed the front of the album by adding the Corner Swirly Heart chippie to the left.  I added paper blooms to the top and bottom of the front cover of the album and then tucked in the Lattice Leave chippies.  I then added the Todays Moments, Tomorrows Memories chippie.  For the inside cover I added the Ingrid's Frame chippie with some Uniquely Creative Beautiful Oasis Die Cuts.  Each of the pages of the Album were created with photos and using an assortment of the Lattice Mini Bit chippies, paper blooms and Uniquely Creative Beautiful Oasis Die Cuts.

Inside the Mini Box Album.

Here's some photo's of the mini book inside the box album.

Thats' all from me today, I hope I have inspired you all with my Mini Box Album. 

 Until next time thanks so much for stopping by.

"Disneyland" Layout by Marie Sabatier

 Hello everyone,

For my first inspiration this June, I made a layout with several photos.

We had the chance to spend a weekend alone with our grandchildren at Disneyland Paris. 

It’s an unforgettable memory. 

"Disneyland"

The chipboards used:

- Disneyland Chipboard Title

- Thin Square Stacked Frames

- Corner Swirly Heart Set

- Mickey Heads

My granddaughter loves "Stitch". 

We waited more than 4 hours for some pictures, and especially to receive big hugs.

I based myself on the dimensions of the frames "Thin Square Stached" to print my photos. 

They are delicate and do not hide the photos.

I wanted to use the beautiful title "Disneyland", so I chose a horizontal layout. 

It’s imposing, but it’s perfect.

I used Distress Oxide inks to embellish the chipboards.

For the frames "candied apple" for the title "black soot". 

A Mickey Heads chipboard was added to my cluster of paper embellishments. 

The look is captured by dyeing it black.

At the end of the line, I added this swirl heart. I really like its design!

The color is that of a "stormy sky". 

I am optimistic that I have awakened your interest in creating 

a layout with the irresistibly cute chipboards from 2Crafty!

See you soon!

Marie

      

"Those Eyes That Smile" by Amy Voorthuis

 Hello sweet 2Crafty friends, 

I am glad you are here with us today, my inspiration for today is a 12 by 12 layout using a picture of Abbey standing under a umbrella while raining. The smile I captured made me think of of the beautiful 2Crafty chipboard phrase "Those Eyes/That Smile" the papers are by Maja Design.

Treasure Those Eyes/That Smile: 

 2Crafty Chipboard used: 
Corner Whispy Vines
Those Eyes/That Smile
Round Flourish Frame
Corner Swirly Heart Set 
Fine Word Set 1
Fine & Fancy Butterfly Set

The chipboard pieces are all primed with black gesso, then I misted the frame {which first cut in half} with some cream toned spray after that I added two different layers of acrylic paint in a pink tone. After that I added a layer of pink wax randomly in the end I added some cream rustic paint also randomly. 

On the other pieces I just added some pink wax and paint and a layer of white mist to make it fit my layout a little better. I also added some pink & two shades of green 

paint on the Corner Whispy Vines. The word "treasure" was also painted in two shades of green and on top of that I added some glossy accents. 

Thank you so much for your visit today and if you would like to see more of my work please visit here:
