Love Forever Happiness Layout for ***2Crafty Chipboard*** & Playing at ***LemonCraft January Moodboard!!!

Well hello fellow crafters, 

I am very glad you are visiting my blog today, I just love creating with 2Crafty Chipboard pieces & I love creating with as much of them as possible. So for this layout I went all feminine with a couple of my favorite colors & eight different chippies, enjoy my post! Oh and I used a picture of my husband & daughter last summer in Greece....

Love Forever Happiness:  

2Crafty Chipboard used: 
Window Shutter Set 4
Line Words - Happiness
Leafy Shrub Set 1
6x6 Clock Face Frames
Amelia's Frames 
Mini Word Set 2
Squiggly Circle Arrow Journal Spots
Fine Word Set 1

You know what's amazing, you can order directly from the
2Crafty website here so you can also play with their amazing chipboard pieces.

I prepaired all my chipboard pieces with white gesso as I normally do but for all of the chippies I used a different technique let me explain. For the pretty window shutters I used some rustic paint {white sand} which has a sand like structure and applying it is very easy. After that I added some colors with a matte finish and some white wax. 

The clock face frame & amelia frame atre both firstly sprayed with spray paint and then I added some acrylic paint & three different color waxes. 

The words I embossed with different colors and the word "Happiness" I two toned it so it give it more demension. I also embossed the "squiggly circle arrow journal spots" with some pink embossing powder. 

And for the leafy shrub set I used some spray paint and two different acrylic paints and later on I added some wax. I also did a lot of fussy cutting forthis layout now I know why I love doing that it relaxes the mind haha..

With this layout I will be entering this months challenge at the Lemon Craft Inspirations Facebook page and this below is their gorgeous moodboard where I got my inspiration from for this layout I made. I have used the pretty "Secret Garden" collection.  

Thank you so much for visiting my blog I sure hope you like my work as much as I love making them. 
Stay happy & creative

Today was Just Adorable Layout for ***2Crafty Chipboard*** & ***Maja Design***!!!

 Hi there lovely friends,
It's a lovely day to visit my blog, for today I have another layout to share with you. Lately I really love to use a little mixed media on my layouts like combining the very romantic stuff with a darker twist to it. This time I made all the beautiful chipboard pieces black which I later on painted to my likes. For this layout I used a picture of both our kids {Kevin & Abbey} Kevin was reading a book and I thought it was so sweet that I took a picture. 

Today was Just Adorable:

2Crafty Chipboards used: 
Elegant Flourishes
Cassie's Flourishes 
Word Circles Set 1
Corner Twisted Vines
Hinges Pack
Filigree Arrows

All the pretty chipboard are treated with a layer of black gesso. Then I used several waxes and a dabber brush to make it look like real metal. In the end I added some color with acrylic paints to match my layout 

For my layout I have used some Maja Design papers and a new mould to frame my sweet picture with. For the background I have used a stencil and some sprays. 

Thank you so much for your visit today. And I sure hope that I have inspired you to take out your lovely 2Crafty Chippies and create and have fun while doing so. Have a blessed & sunny week!

"Besties" Layout for ***Renea Bouquets*** & ***ScrapAndMe***!

 Hello lovely friends, 

I am so glad you are here with me today, for today I have another layout to share this time more in my comfort zone which is girly, flowery with a lot of chipboards. On the picture you see our lovely dog named "Fibi" with our little princess Abbey. They are best buds for sure and Abbey loves to cuddle Fibi all the time it's so cute. I took this picture when I came down the stairs ;-) 

Besties

How I created my layout, first I cut about two centimeters of the sides of the Grunge Backgrounds 0506 sheet then I took out the middle part of the Vintage Garden 0910 sheet. Then I placed them on top of each other but after I stitch the outerlines of the "Grunce Backgrounds 0506" sheet first! Then I prepared both sheets with clear gesso. Then I added a stencil and some mixed media sprays. 

I cut out a whole bunch of flower clusters from the "Vintage Garden Flowers 1 cut out sheet" and placed them randomly on my layout for the finishing touch. I also framed the picture with a gorgeous frame by Renea Bouquets which I first altered with cord then I added some gorgeous swirl leaves around the frame and some gorgeous roses also by Renea I kept the chipboard just plane because I think the color of Renea Bouquets is beautiful by itself!

Beautiful Renea Bouquets products used: 
Beautiful Board Large Vintage French Bracket Clock Lasercut Chipboard
