Hello there, thanks so much for calling by the blog.
Today I have another Christmas layout to share with you
& it features this gorgeous photo that was taken on Christmas Day
back in 2015 of myself with my eldest son Beau & his daughter Mia.
I had assembled a bunch of props in readiness for our photo shoot
including this big frame I'm holding & of course lots of Chrissy hats too.
I created this layout as part of my design team work this month for
2Crafty Chipboard
and naturally I have used lots of their various chipboard pieces.
2Crafty Chipboard Used…
11” Holly Frame Set (cut up)
2015 Dates
Love at Christmas - title (cut up)
ATC Tiny Hearts & Stars
6” Tanyahs Border
Stars Pack
Mini Christmas Word Stick - Christmas Set #1 (cut up)
Ornament Sampler
After creating a lovely subtle mixed media background and
& adding some layers behind the photo I set about customising
all my chipboard pieces to match.
Everything was given a coat of white gesso to start & then I began to colour
up all the chippie pieces with some acrylic paints. All these gorgeous holly
up all the chippie pieces with some acrylic paints. All these gorgeous holly
pieces were cut apart from the middle frame from the "Holly Frame Set".
I did the same to the title which I had cut the word "Christmas" off of the
"Love at Christmas" title & also I cut
the "Christmas Sampler" into pieces as well.
Thats the great thing about chipboard, you can cut it
up to suit your project.

All finished. I hope you like it.
