Hi 2crafty fans,

 

I'm here today to show you my latest creation using beautiful 2Crafty chipboards.

 

This time I went with warm tones for my background and light colors for my chippies.

 

With two boys, I don't use pink often. But when I do, I like to combine it with yellow.

The final result is always super interesting!

 

I wanted a short and discreet title. For the occasion, I chose a word from the Fine Word set 3.

I cut both ending swirls and embossed it with a bronze powder.

After applying white gesso as a basecoat to Ava's Frame, I embossed it with a light cream powder.

 

Then, I used gold and bronze waxes to add contrast and dried brushed white gesso here and there as a final touch

 

After cutting one piece of the Leafy Shrub set 1 in two and placing it on both sides of my picture, I used the same coloring technique as for Ava's frame.

 

The keyhole and Addy's butterflies were covered with antique gold embossing powder

and a touch of white gesso.

2Crafty Chipboard CSI case 272

Hello 2Crafty fans!

This month, 2Crafty is guest designing on the CSI Colors Stories Inspiration blog. 

Here is my layout for case 272.

As I wanted a winter theme, I used a monochromatic color scheme except for a few touches of burgundy, moss green and light denim.

As always, I started by applying white gesso on all my chippies.
This way, the embossing powders colors applied on top are vibrant.

I used an olive embossing powder to cover 4" mandala no.1.
One layer is enough of cover it up nicely.

Amelia Flowers stems were embossed with a light moss green powder.
Their silver reflection compliments the winter accent of my layout.

Finally, the Cherish title, part of Fine Word set 1, was embossed with a sparkling vanilla powder,
one of my all time favorite embossing powder!
