Christmas Cards for *2Crafty Chipboard* and & Playing at Challenge #122 Bingo at SrapAndMe!!!

 Hi lovely creative peeps, 

Hope you are having a wonderful & creative day, for today I have two Christmas cards to share with you and I used some amazing chipboard pieces by 2Crafty, ScrapAndMe papers & Maja Design papers, handmade flowers, pre made flowers and some amazing collage ephemera {Christmas Fairies} by Marta Lapkowska. Enjoy this post.....

Card 1: December 2024  

Bingo: middle horizontal row: paint splatter - flowers - doily

I just love making cards that are non traditional in colors so that is what I did here. For this card I altered the "Berry Vine Set" with spray paint without adding gesso first and then I added some lighter green acrylic paint with a sponge, the "Merry Christmas" banner is from ScrapAndMe not sure which collection.

On the "Card Xmas Baubles" I added some black embossing powder on the hanging part but you can't see that anymore because I added flowers on top of that. But on the baubles I added some Christmas balls from the collage ephemera book {Christmas Fairies} 

That cute little fairy is also from that book, the word december & 2024 are treated with embossing powders both two layers and one n a two tone style. 

Card 2: Christmas Memories

Bingo: middle vertical row: stitching - flowers - ribbon

The "Circle Dot Frame" is treated with two layers of embossing powder in a green color. 

For this card I did use the traditional colors which is also fun to do....for my second card I used the pretty "Magic Christmas" collection by ScrapAndMe the flowers are handmade. 

For the dangling part from the "Merry Christmas Sign" I treated that one with a ink pad after I first added two layers of white gesso. I also did that with the word Christmas. The word memories is cut apart from the phrase "cherished family memories" and is treated with green metallique wax. 

I will be entering this months challenge at the ScrapAndMe blog which is a "BINGO" and I love bingo's so much that I will be entering with both cards. 

First card: middle horizontal row: paint splatter - flowers - doily

Second card: middle vertical row: stitching {faux} - flowers - ribbon

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

Merry Christmas card (non traditional colors) for ***ScrapAndMe***!!!

 Happy New Year lovely creative friends, 

I just can believe we started a new year already time flies by so fast. My health hasn't been at his best lately I am struggeling with high blood pressure and more health issues that's why I have not been scrapbooking lately. But I did manage to make a Christmas card to show you all here. This card was made with the latest collection "Dream a Little"! I really enjoy making non traditional coloured Chirstmas cards so that is what I did here. 

Merry Christmas: 

The flowers are handmade with some beautiful dies like the ones that you can buy in the ScrapAndMe store. I love layering my cards with many layers of papers on this particular card I stitched the two top layers of my card and distressed the edges.

Our Sweet Girl Layout with Photo Tutorial for ***2Crafty Chipboard***!!

 Hello fellow creative souls, 

I am so excited that you are here with us today as it's my turn to bring you some inspiration. For this occasion I created a layout with a bunch of beautiful 2Crafty Chipboard pieces. All the chipboard pieces are treated in different ways like embossing, spraying and waxing. The flowers are handmade with some awesome dies and the picture I used is of our pretty little girl. 

Our Sweet Girl: 

2Crafty Chipboard used: 

9" Steampunk Border
Our Sweet Girl Title
Hinges Pack
Fern Leaf Set
Mini Title Stick Set 1
Freda's Butterflies
Mini Word Set 2
Mini Title Stick Set 3

Firstly I coated the chipboard pieces with a layer of white gesso, then I took the 9" Steampunk Border, the hinges and the word adore and layered them with a coat of black gesso. Then I treated those same pieces with two different waxes and then I ramdomly added some acrylic paint with a tiny brush on them.  

The ferns I sprayed three time to cover them nicely then I used my heat gun to let it dry a little faster. Then I randomly added some green acrylic paint with a paper towel so you get it a little on even as I like. 

Behind the butterflies I added some paper from the collection I used but before I did that I coloured them with both of the pink sprays you see in picture two. Then I used some clear embossing powder since I wanted them in the pink color. The phrase I used is only treated with some blue spray as you see on picture one. 

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 upcoming week!

Beautiful Smile Embroidery Hoop for ***ScrapAndMe***!!!

  Hello Lovely Friends! 

Today I bring you some inspiration and for this I used the pretty Sunflowers collection. I wanted to make my project with a lot of demension so I used a embroidery hoop to do so. What I think is amazing is all the word strips in this collection. I just love to use them a lot on most of my work on this piece I used five. 

Beautiful Smile: 

For this project I off course used some pictures of our Abbey amoung some pretty flowers, this was a fun project to create. I will soon be back wih some new inspiration.

Wonderful Day Layout for ***ScrapAndMe***!!!

Hello Lovely Friends!
 Happy 1st of August to you today I bring you some more inspiration. This time I used several collections for the background I used the darker sheet of the Woods collection. I stitched around the edges on that sheet and later on I added a stencil. To matt my picture I used a leftover from the "Bright & Soft" collection and the rest of my layout was created with the "Sapphire Days" collection another favorite of mine. 

Wonderful Day: 

For this layout I did a lot of fussy cutting for me this layout was very quickly created normally it takes me about five to six hours to make a layout but this one was within three hours {fussy cutting excluded} 

I finished my layout by adding a bunch of butterflies from the butterflies sheet and to give my stencil work a little more demension I added nuvo crystal drops on it randomly and at the end I sprayed with some white spray.
