 The second layout of my November Inspiration for 2Crafty Chipboards was made for C.S.I. Blog as the 2Crafty was sponsoring them and we were invited as guest designers for October.

''Case file 216''

I have also made a VIDEO TUTORIAL with the procedure.

Polaroid Assortment Frames
 Asst Mini Camera Set
ATC Tiny Hearts & Stars
Steampunk Gears Small
Gears
Dream Big Title

With this layout I'm entering at The Creative Studio November Challenge.

And a closer look...

I highlighted my paper with some white gesso and then I used white modeling paste and a little black with different stencils to make contrast. I created my background with ''Peony Scarlet Red'' and ''Ocean Breeze Blue'' Lindy's Stamp Gang mists.

I painted the ''Dream Big'' title, the ''Stars'' and the mini camera from the ''Mini Camera Set'' chippies with ''Rich Turquoise'' Acrylic Paint. The frames from ''Polaroid Assortment Frames'' were painted with ''Aqua-Rose'' Paint.

 The ''Gears'' were stamped with ''Watering Can'' Archival Ink and the big square frame which is a left over piece from the ''Polaroid Assortment Frames'' were heat embossed with ''Tera Cotta Red'' Lindy's powder. ''Vintage Rose'' Acrylic Paint for the square left over piece.

Well, that's all for today...

''Happiness is This'' - A mixed media layout for Maja Design

 Hello my friends!

Today, I will share with you a new layout for Maja Desing. I made a romantic page, again, using papers from the ''Vintage Spring Basics'' collection.

The main paper on the background is the ''2nd of May''. I tore the ''8th of March'' paper into three pieces and then I glued down the top piece on the top edge of the main paper. The lower torn piece of paper was glued on the bottom of the main paper, leaving the middle spot empty.

When accembled the papers, I gave them a coat of clear gesso. I added texture by using modeling paste and a stencil. When everything dried, I used Lindy's Stamp Gang mists, ''Cotton Candy Pink'', ''Salt Water Taffy'' and ''Cattail Copper Brown'' to color my page.

I decided to make a simple cluster for my photo... only a doily, a little cheesecloth and some lace. And, at this point, I want to give all the proper gredits to the photographer of the photo, which I found on Pinterest.

The chipboards are all 2Crafty and I painted them with Finnabair Acrylic Paints. For the title and the heart frame I used the ''Vintage Rose'' and for the leaves I used tvo shades of green, the ''Lime Peel'' and the ''Green Olive''. All flowers and embellishments are Prima Marketing.

As a final touch I added some pearls and some microbeads and made some splatters with white gesso.

Papers used:

Well, that's all for today...

...see you again in two weeks!

Thank you for your time!

''Precious Moments'' - A Layout for 2Crafty Chipboard with a Video Tutorial

''Precious Moments''

Hello my friends!

Today i will share with you two layouts and two video tutorials, I made for September Inspiration at 2Crafty Chipboard.

In this post you will see the first one, which is a romantic vintage layout designed on a dark gray paper from the ''Salvage District'' Prima collection filled with lots of flowers.

I have also made a VIDEO TUTORIAL with the procedure.

I based this layout on the September challenges over at Prima Marketing PPP 

and at More Than Words challenge blog.

I used the following 2crafty chipboards...

Marianne's Butterflies

 Lina's Swirl
Flourish Adornment Set 4

Precious - Loopy Font 

I highlighted my dark background paper with some white gesso and then I used ''Tea Pot Purple'' and ''Open Arms Amethyst'' Lindy's Stamp Gang mists to add some color to it.

I painted the flourish chipboards with ''Rich Turquoise'' 

and the Lina's Swirl with the ''Dark Velvet'' Finnabair acrylic paints.

The title and the little butterfy chipboards were heat embossed
with ''Gilded Burgundy Brass'' Lindy's embossing powder.

I also used a small curved leftover chipboard from the ''Circle Revolution Frames''.

Well, that was all for the first. Stay tuned for the second one!

''Always and Forever'' - Layout for Maja Design with a Video Tutorial

Hello Maja funs!

I have a new layout to share with you today. I made a mixed media vintage page using two different collections... ''Vintage Summer Basics'' and ''Vintage Autumn Basics''.

I have also made a Video Tutorial…

As I always do I found this beautiful and romantic photo on Pinterest. So I want to give to the photographer all the proper credits.

This photo is so romantic and inspired me to make a soft romantic layout.

For my background I choose the ''1916'' paper from ''Vintage Summer Basics'' collection and behind my photo I placed some teared pieces from ''1915'' and ''1932'' papers to make some layers.

At first, I gave my paper a coat of clear gesso and then I added some white gesso where I wanted to place my photo. I added some texture to my background with a light paste and two stencils. Then, I used Lindy's Stamp Gang mists, ''Delphinium Turquoise'' and ''Baby Blue Eyes Aqua'' with some water to make a watercolor effect on my background.

I sprayed my flowers with ''Blazing Sun'' Lindy's Glitz Spritz to make them shine. Then, I made a fussy cutting on some clocks from Vintage Autumn Basics ''No XVI'' paper and added them to my clusters.

All the chipboards I used are 2Crafty. I colored the two flourish pieces with ''Deep Waters'' Finnabair acrylic paint and the ''Forever'' title was heat embossed with ''Golden Angel Wings'' Lindy's embossing powder.

Papers used:

Well, that's all for today...

Thank you so much for visiting. I hope I gave you a little bit of inspiration!

''Remember'' - An Altered Notebook

 Hello there!

This time I deside to try something new for me... an altered notebook cover. I saw a challenge over at The Creative Studio which is about ''Do the Planning'' and said why not? Let's give it a try and alter a notebook cover.

It was a big challenge for me to work on black background and acrylic paints.

 I have watched Marta Lapkowska's video tutorials with this technique but hadn't tried until now... Marta can't thank you enough for the inspiration!

Here are some close ups...

I used Royal Red, Emerald Green and Fresh Orange Acrylic Paints, 2Crafty chipboards, Finnabair Mechanicals and Tim Holtz Pen Nibs.

Thanks for stopping by...
