My 2Crafty Chipboard November DT RevealPart One"Friends"

Hi there lovelies, thanks for stopping by. Today I have part two of my

November DT reveal for 2Crafty Chipboard.

I started off with a mixed media background using some

Lindy's Gang spray in "Azure Sea Asters" and lots of water to dilute it.

 2Crafty Chipboard Products Used...

Friends - title loopy font

Funky Heart Swirls

Frame Olivia

Ana's Vine

I have used both the 2 Crafty "Ana"s Vine" as well as some "Funky Heart Swirls"

on my layout as you can see in the above photo. I treated them both in the same way....

                              #1. I gave them all a basecoat of white paint.

                              #2.  Next up I wiped them over with some Distress Ink in "Pumice Stone".

                              #3.  I coloured up the buds & hearts with some Distress Ink in "Peeled Paint".

                              #4.  Lastly I covered all the green parts with some "Crackle Accents".

For the 2Crafty title "Friends" I simply painted it in a pale blue acrylic paint & while still

wet I dipped it into a fine glitter, but unfortunately it is hard to see that in a photo!!

How nice does the "Crackle Accents" make those green buds & hearts look?

It really makes them pop.

All these gorgeous flowers & papers are from 49 and Market.

Lastly for the 2Crafty "Frame - Olivia" I bascoated it in white paint first followed

by a wipe over of Distress Ink - Pumice Stone" & then I used a wipe to lightly

wipe some off to lighten it.

Well thats all from me today. I hope you liked my layout.

Until next time.

My 2Crafty Chipboard November DT RevealPart One"Our Sweet Girl"

Hi there lovelies, thanks for stopping by. Today I have part one of my

November DT reveal for 

2Crafty Chipboard

A layout featuring my grandaughter Mia to share with you.

 I just adore this pic of her.

2Crafty Products Used...

Our Sweet Girl - title

Tiny Leaf Stems

Fine Leafy Bush

Chicken Wire - small

Chicken Wire - medium

I thought this 2Crafty title, "Our Sweet Girl" was just perfect for my layout.

Here I simply basecoated it in white paint followed by a coat of bronze acrylic paint.

Too easy.

Next up I set to work altering these "Tiny Leaf Stems" to add in with my flowers.

I started off with a base coat of white paint, then I blobbed on some texture paste

 just using my finger so that it would be rough, then I heated it with a heat gun to

 make it bubble up & then lastly I sprayed it with some Lindy's Gang sprays in

"Grab A Guy Gold" & "Cowabunga Copper".

I treated the "Fine Leafy Bush" in the same way & then I cut

it into pieces & poked it in here & there around the flowers.

I added some cut up pieces of both the small & medium

"Chicken Wire" In & around the layout too for added texture.

 

All these gorgeous kraft coloured flowers are from my good friends over at

49 and Market.

Well thats all from me today, I will see you back herein a couple

of days time with more great 2Crafty chipboard inspiration.

Until then....
