Megan's May Inspiration

Hi Everyone!
Today I have a couple of layouts to share plus an OTP project that I had banging around in my head as soon as I saw the HomeSpun Collection, just loved these papers :)


I took an ATC sized craft coloured box and used this as my base, covering the inside and outside with patterned paper, and inked the edges in pinecone ink.


I chose quite a few of the printed chipboard elements and used these in the middle of the box to support all the fussy cut pieces I used throughout.


A birds eye view gives you a perfect view of all those layers I assembled.


Isn't that little sewing machine super cute?!


On the back of the box I used one of the 6x6 patterned pieces and layered another chipboard element on top.

Products Used

Patterned Paper:
HomeSpun
Minis, Tea Time, Crafty, Homegrown, Calling Cards

Printed Chipboard:
HomeSpun




My first of two layouts uses paper from the Wanderlust collection.  The neutral colour scheme of this collection makes it so versatile!


This photo had such lovely memories of fabulous weekend away we had and this particular day was at Mt Cook village, such a beautiful part of our country. :)
On my background I used clear gesso and then applied different sprays.  Once all the layers were dry I mixed 3D gloss gel with glitter to create a paste and applied that to my stencil.  Then I stamped randomly over my page, using white and black ink.


To glitter my chipboard title I painted it a coordinating colour and while still wet sprinkled glitter on it.  It was originally just embossed but just didnt seem to stand out, this worked much better!


To get the best out of my chipboard I used the positive and the negative pieces from the cogs set and cut apart the bits I wanted from the numbers set.  The cogs are just inked with pinecone while the rest is embossed with wheat embossing powder.

Products Used

Patterned Paper:
Wanderlust - Lakeside

Printed Chipboard:
Wanderlust

Glitter:
Russet, Blue Ice

Embossing Powder:
Wheat

Stamps:
Tattered Newsprint




My last project used paper from the Remnants Collection.


 On this background I also applied clear gesso and used a two toned spray, and again randomly stamped over the design.  There are a number of layers to this layout - 4! - giving it depth and a bit more interest.


Cannot get enough of those Lillies!! <3
Two layers of chipboard this time, one left black and the other embossed with powder so the two layers looked separate and didnt blend into each other.


I fussy cut around the floral cluster piece of the printed chipboard - to do this I carefully separated the layers that make up the chipboard til I was left two, making it much easier to trim around.


Products Used

Patterned Paper:
Remnants - Beaumont

Printed Chipboard:
Remnants

Stamps:
Tattered Newsprint

Seedlings:
Leaf

Embossing Powder:

Glitter:

April Pages . . . created by Sharon!

Hi Everyone!

I have been anxiously awaiting Spring and it seems to finally be here. I am very happy and excited to be sharing the layouts that I created for April! ♥  So here goes . . .


My first two pages were made with the amazing "Wanderlust" collection:



I absolutely love this gorgeous collection!  To me, it is perfect for vacation and summer photos.


♥ My First Layout:  Fantastic Getaway



I fussy cut a favorite photo of my daughter, Anne, taken back in the Summer of 2013 to use as the basis for my page.  I thought it would be wonderful to use "Seascape" as my background paper.  Isn't the paper beautiful?



I featured 2 different laces here - Lace 6 and Lace 11.  And I LOVED embossing directly on my page using the Buttercup Embossing Powder along with one of the crackle texture stamps in the "sandy" area of the background paper.

Here are some close ups:





Blue Fern Product List:
Paper: Wanderlust "Escape"
Chipboard: Wanderlust Chipboard Shapes
Embossing Powder: Buttercup
Stamp: Crackle Texture
Flowers: Chesterville Blooms
Seedlings: Glass
Lace:  Lace 6, Lace 11



My Second Layout:  Enjoy the Journey



I found a wonderful photo of the carousel at Bryant Park that I took during one of our visits to NYC!  I thought the lyrics from a favorite Joni Mitchell song of mine, "Circle Game," would be perfect here.  

Again, I thoroughly enjoyed using the paper from the Wanderlust Collection.  This time I picked  the flip side of "Pacific Coast" to use in my background: 



I just love these beautiful colors!!


And I decorated the chipboard carousel horse here on my page, too.

Here are some close ups:





I also want to mention that I loved working with the Ivory, Green Ivory and Antique Gold embossing powders and the Wintergreen Seedlings to create my Carousel Horse!

Blue Fern Product List:
Paper: Wanderlust "Pacific Coast" and "Memento"
Chipboard: Carousel Horse, Wanderlust Printed Chipboard Shapes
Embossing Powder:  Ivory, Green Ivory, Antique Gold
Flowers: Apricot Blooms, Chesterville Blooms
Seedlings: Wintergreen


I thoroughly enjoyed making both of these pages using Blue Fern Studios' Wanderlust
collection  - using all of their items made it a pleasure to scrap!


And my third page was made using the gorgeous "Remnants" collection:



My Third LayoutRemember this Day


I came across this treasured photo of my dad and I taken on my wedding day on March 3, 1990.  I have always loved this photo and thought that using the "Remnants" collection would be a perfect way to scrap it. 


Just gorgeous!!!


I used the lyrics from Amy Grant and Gary Chapman's song 
"My Father's Eyes."  I get teary eyed just thinking of this moment!!!

Some close ups:




I totally enjoyed using the Turkish Panel chipboard embossed with "Ivory" embossing powder!  And embossing directly on my page using the firework-like stamps from the "Christmas Collage" stamp set.

I am going to cherish this page for years to come thanks to the Blue Fern Studios products!

Blue Fern Product List:
Paper: Remnants "Westfield"
Chipboard: Turkish Panel, Remnants Printed Chipboard Shapes
Embossing Powder: Ivory
Stamp: Christmas Collage
Flowers: Happy Roses, Fresh Florals, Remnants Florals

I hope that I inspired you to create.  I find that it easy and fun when I use BFS!!

March layout by Yuko


Hello everyone!
Today is my turn!
First of all, I will introduce the spring layout.



【Dilight in the little things】
I go to hunt strawberries that I go every year.
Amber & Apricot and Home Spun
I mixed two kinds of collections and used it.




Flower is Apricot Blooms.
I often use this flower.Easy to use size and color!

Also find your favorite embossed powder! ! !
It is the color "IVORY".
Until now there are several kinds of white
White, pearl white, white with lame ...
But I did not have this subtle IVORY!
This is perfect color when not enough in white!
Or almighty too much color !



Cupcake chip board (Party Cakes) is cute too !
Put paper on the cup part and draw with a white pen.
Cream part is It's A GIRL pretty pink embossed powder.

IVORY/It's A GIRL








【A MOMENT in Time】
This picture was taken at the photo studio.
It is my favorite picture.
My daughter looks smart!




This embossed powder is also wonderful!
It is Black & Gold.
It is a feeling that gold lame firmly rides in black.
So it's heavy in black. GOLD is flashy. It matches very well in the case.


Originally this paper has a pattern like this
I also made a pattern using a stamp ”Tattered Harlequin”.
If you press a black stamp, the layout will be tightened.
seedilngs is the color Meadow.

I used green embossed powder AVOCADO
 for the leaf chipboard (Rose Leaf).



This seedlings is the color Twig.
It is metallic and cool!

【BEAUTIFUL】
A picture by younger sister's wedding of my husband was used!
The expression relieved for my daughter to finish
 the important duty to which she says 
when a wedding ring was carried safely.

This leaf isn't green and is gold.
Such case is gold as expected! It becomes showy, doesn't it?





A race is indispensable to make it gorgeous!
This race is my favorite as it gets really gorgeous!

February Inspiration by Debbie Burns

Hi everyone!  Debbie back with you today to share my February layouts.   I have two today, one created with the new In The Mood Collection and the second one featuring the Amber & Apricot collection.

"I Love You"
I enjoyed working with the new collection, In The Mood.  Lots of beautiful papers to choose from.  I used the Dreamy paper for my base.  Not much sun here in my neck of the woods to truly show the beautiful colors and details in the background paper.

To achieve the coloring on the chipboard piece, I used a mixture of two new embossing powders, Black & Gold along with Pure Red and a tiny amount of It's A Girl.

Lot of layering behind the photo using the Dreamy paper and Pensive Side B, 
along with the printed chipboard.

Look at all of those lovely flowers!   Most of them are from the new Moody Florals and Moody Blooms collections. I placed some chipboard pieces among the flowers which I embossed with Black & Gold and added some Fire Engine Glitter.   At the base of the flowers I used a mixture of two new Seedlings, Beating Heart and Pink Topaz.

My second layout highlights the Amber & Apricot collection.

"Happy Little Moment"
The background paper is Chapters (Side B).  I thought the aged design on the paper was a perfect compliment to the old photo of my Mom and her family.  I applied some coral mist and stamping using the Swiss Dots and Tattered Newsprint stamps.

Lots of layering under the picture using pieces from the Printed chipboard that coordinates with the Amber & Apricot collection.  I embossed the chipboard with Blood Orange Embossing Powder. 


The title is from the Printed Chipboard.  I embossed some chipboard pieces with a mixture of Dark Chocolate and Blood Orange Embossing Powders.  


Lots of flowers from Late Winter Lilies, Chesterville Florals, Christmas Blooms, Homespun Blooms and Remnants Blossoms surround the picture.
