Adore layout and photo tutorial for 2Crafty Chipboard

Hi there and welcome to my blog!

 

'Adore'

Today I would like to share with you this layout using a number of awesome
 2Crafty Chipboard 
 I also included some progress photos, but first some close ups and product information.

2Crafty Chipboard Products:

- Amelia Flower - Small

- Amelia Flower - Large

- Beaded Hanging Hearts

-Mini Word Set 2

- Decorative Rod Set

Papers, flowers and Laser Cuts are from 49 and Market.

As per usual I used lots of layers, I love the dimension it creates.

I used a really fun technique on the 'Amelia Flower' chippie which I will explain below.

Close up of the finished effect on the chipboard.

Below is a photo tutorial of how my page came together.

So I started off with adding some cheese cloth to my background paper and
 gluing it down in random places scrunching it up as I went.

Next I added two coats of heavy white gesso to my chipboard,
 drying it off with the heat gun.

Once dry I added three different opal magic colours in
 random areas using the dry brush technique.

I then dried the paint with my heat gun which made it bubble

 and melt to create this awesome texture.

Next I added both chipboard pieces to my layout on top of some layered photo matts. 

The papers are layered with pieces of cardboard to create dimension.

I used some copper embossing powder on the 'Decorative Rod' and 

white on the sentiment and 'Beaded hanging Heart'

Finishing it off by adding all my other elements like flowers 

and laser cuts, some art stones and prills.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Until next time.....

Mintay - Celebrations

So this afternoon I made some time to go into my scrap room to have a play with the Mintay Papers I received a few days ago. These papers are soooooo gorgeous, so many lovely fussy cut elements, going back to my roots. Of course I also added some of my favourite 49 and Market flowers and 2Crafty Chipboard. I also ended up filming the progress of this layout, which is a first for me but will have to check it out and edit before putting it up on my blog. Fingers crossed it turned out ok :)

Thanks for dropping by!

Until next time....

Lots of gold paint and glitter. Flowers are from '49 and Market'.

Until next time...

Love this moment layout and photo tutorial for 49 and Market

Hi there crafty friends and welcome to another 49 and Market layout share!

‘Love this Moment’

 I included some progress photos in this blog post which you will find when you scroll down but first some close up pics and product information.

49 and Market Products:
– Captured Adventures Paper Collection
– Blossom Blends – Cantaloupe
Garden Seeds – Sandcastle

Chipboard is from 2Crafty Chipboard!

A close up of some of those gorgeous ‘Blossom Blend’ flowers. The ‘Garden Seed Flowers’ complement them beautifully!

Here as you can see I used some of the ‘Captured Adventures’ Laser Cuts, so versatile, I love them!

This close up really shows up all those layers!

I finished the layout with some extra touches like flowersoft and artstones!

So the following photos will hopefully show you a little bit about the progress of this layout.

First up I added some white Gesso randomly to my flowers to give them more of a shabby look, dried them off and added some shimmery spray which is not really showing up in the photos.

So here I used some scrap pieces of paper as well as a couple of pieces from the ‘Laser Cuts’ to layer behind my photo. I add them with pieces of cardboard for dimension.

Here I have just added two black photo matts, again the top one is layered.

Next I added some cheese cloth for texture. I just added it in between all the layers.

I covered the funky looking 2Crafty Chipboard pieces in some olive embossing powder.

I glued my chipboard pieces onto my layout and started working on my composition.

Just playing around with the position of the gorgeous ‘Blossom Blend Flowers’.

Next I added the ‘Garden Seed flowers’ and tucked them amongst the ‘Blossom Blends’. To finish it of I added the 2Crafty Chipboard sentiment which I covered in black embossing powder, some Artstones, Prills and Flowersoft.

So there you have it, I hope you enjoyed my blog post today and hope to see you again soon.

Until next time…..

Remember Today layout for 49 and Market

'Remember Today'

Hi there 49 and Market Fans and welcome to the last day of July. Is it me or does the year just seem to be flying past? I say this every year but this year has gone particularly fast for me for some reason. Anyway today I have another layout to share with you using some of the awesome new ‘Stargazer’ flowers, I truly love these flowers, I find them very versatile.

49 and Market products used:

– Sand and Sea Collection – Beach this way, Seafoam and Seaworld
– Stargazers – Petal Pink
– Garden Seeds – Cotton
– Archival Board – Remember Today (black)
– Sweet Reflections – Lock and Key stamp set

I added some Flowersoft ultra fine white to the flowers and the background to represent the snow in the photos.

I stamped the leave from the ‘Lock and Key stamp set’ onto some vellum, embossed and fussy cut. I just stuck them in between the layers of flowers and other embellishments.

It just added another bit of visual interest. I used some WOW seafoam white embossing powder.

All chipboard of course is from 2Crafty Chipboard! I embossed the frame and sentiment with WOW fools gold embossing powder.

The ‘Stargazers’ combined really well here with the ‘Garden Seeds’. I also added some gauze and art stones to the background. Last but not least I stamped a couple of butterflies from the ‘Lock and Key’ stamp set onto the background paper and embossed it with the seafoam white.

Thanks again for popping by, hope to see you next time!

Until then….

Hugs
