“A Christmas To Remember”
Mixed Media Layout
Design Team Project for 2Crafty Chipboard


Well hello there, thanks so much for stopping by.
I hope you had a wonderful Christmas with your family
& friends & that Santa was good to you.

No doubt you have taken lots & lots of photos over this
Christmas season so I have just one last Christmas layout
to help inspire you to get some of those photos scrapped !!!
2Crafty Chipboard Used….
Stars Border
Holly Vine Corners
Messy Frame 6” Set
A Christmas to Remember - title
filmstrips - Tiny

WARNING THIS LAYOUT IS SADLY NOT A KIT.
I will be back creating lots more kits mid January!!

This one is just one for my own album.


                            After firstly creating & stencilled background & adding lots of glitter
to it, although that is not easy to see in a photo, I then did some background
stamping, added lots of lovely layers
 & then set to work customising my chipboard pieces.


The chipboard "title" & the little "Stars"were just given
a couple of coats of red acrylic paint. Too easy.
I then added some "Glossy Accents" to make the stars really
shiney & finished them off by brushing  a little
white gesso over them.


Next up I used the middle sized frame from the 
"Messy Frame Set"
to frame my photos & help draw the eye.
I basecoated it in white acrylic paint, dried it off before 
wiping it over with a brown Distress Ink Pad & giving a tiny
 spray of water which makes the ink runny & patchy & also
waters the colour down too. Always a good shabby technique.

I did the same technique on the little
"Filmstrip" at the top of the page too.


Lastly I cut up one of the "Holly Vine Corners", to use at the right
side of my photo. I painted it in a lovely green watercolour paint
& then gave it a light spray of water to make the watercolour
paint a bit runny. This gives it a nice shabby vibe.

Well thats all I have for you today.
I do hope you like it.

Until next time...

“My Christmas Angel”
A Mixed Media Layout
Design Team Project for 2Crafty Chipboard

Hi there and hello, thanks for stopping by.

Today I have a mixed media Design Team project for
2Crafty Chipboard
using some of their wonderful chipboard pieces.
THIS ONE IS SADLY NOT A KIT
These pics were taken back in 2014 & are of my gorgeous little 
 doggy who sadly crossed over the rainbow bridge back last year.

I began by creating my background with stencilling, sprays and stamping
before commencing with all the layers and then the fun part,
 altering the chipboard !!


For the chipboard title, I simply painted it with red acrylic paint.
Too easy !!

 

The gorgeous little chipboard snowflakes I heat embossed
in gold embossing powder and then tucked them in under
the edges of my photos.

Lastly came the little chippie
"Brushstoke Christmas Tree"
which I sprayed in green and then finished it off
with lots of glitter to make it sparkle !!
I then tucked it in behind the left photo.

Well thats all I have for you today.
I hope you got a little inspiration from it.

Until next time...

“My Beautiful Girl”
A Design Team Project For…
2Crafty Chipboard

 


Hello there, thanks for calling by. Today I am back 
with another layout to hopefully inspire you & naturally I
have used some wonderful pieces of 2Crafty Chipboard. 

PS...This layout is not going to be a KIT
To See all my KITS click here....


2Crafty Chipboard Used….
Framed Chain Frames
4” Mandala No.3
Mini Flourish Bits
My Beautiful Girl - Title


To start with I have painted both this sweet little title,
“My Beautiful Girl” as well as one of the “Frame Chains” in a 
couple of coats of white acrylic paint as I wanted them to really
“pop” on the page.


Next up I set to work of both the “4” Mandala” and also a few pieces
of the “Mini Flourish Bits”. Firstly I base coated them in a coat of white 
acrylic paint, dried them off & then I made up a paint wash with water and a dab of
brown paint, mixed it up and then very roughly brushed it over the pieces.


This "4"Mandala #3" is such a lovely chipboard piece and works so well
tucked in with all the layers on my page.


In this photo above you can see here one of those gorgeous
a little “Mini Flourish Bits” tucked into my flower cluster.


Well that’s all I have you today,
Hope you liked it.

Until next time....
