 Hello everyone, 
I just can't believe we are already in the second week of 2024! I hope you all had a lovely time with family & friends during this festive season. I am delighted that you are here with me today I want to thank every single one of you who always comment on our work for 2Crafty Chipboard on Instagram & Facebook. Your comments mean a lot to me personally....lately I haven't had my mojo in one line with my creativity. But for today I got that back a little so I'd like to show you a layout made with one of the new Prima collections and lot's of gorgeous 2Crafty Chippies enjoy my post.....

All Smiles: 

2Crafty Chipboard used: 
Half Circle Flourish Frame
Elegant Flourishes
Foliage Set 11
ATC Word Banner Set 1
All Smiles Title
Mini Word Set 2

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 used a older picture of Abbey and me that I thought would go great with the title
"All Smiles"! All the chipboard pieces are treated with a layer of white gesso.
 For the "Half Circle Flourish Frame" and "Elegant Flourishes" I added a
 clear text stamp with some brown ink. 


I also used the brown ink for the edges of the "All Smiles" phrase and the ATC banner
 and for the last one I highlighted the word with a gel pen. The foliage was
 treated witth some green acrylic paint and some white matte wax. In the end
 I added some crystal drops to the circles on the flourish frame & some white spray paint.

Well hello sweet friends, 
So glad you are visiting this amazing blog, I really love creating with beautiful chipboard pieces like these. For today I have another 12 by 12 layout as those are my favorites to make. This time I made a wintery layout {my favorite to make} I used two pictures of Abbey in the snow back in 2021.

The Magic of Snow:

2Crafty Chipboard used: 
2021's

Christmas Frame 1
Winter Twig Branches 
Snowball Tree
Scrabble Tiles
The Magic of Snow



The beautiful "Christmas Frame 1" was altered with some true snow by {aleene's} after I firstly gessod all my pieces. After that I added some white & pink spray. I really love to alter my chippies with sprays because of the stainlike look. In the middle of the snowflakes I added a pearl drop and the word winter is altered with some white embossing powder. 


I cut up the "Snowball Tree" in several pieces and tuck them in my flower cluster they are altered with some wowzers white embossing powder and on the balls I added some nuvo crystal drops. The title was treated with some sprays and wax.


The "Corner Crackle" has to be my favorite piece of 2Crafty Chipboard I tuck that one underneath my first picture. and that one was also altered with some true snow and white spray. The "Twig Branches" I sprayed them with green sprays. All the products used but for the chippies are by 49 and Market.

Two Tall Christmas Cards for ***2Crafty Chipboard***!!!

  Goodmorning my sweet friends, 
I am so happy that you are visiting my blog today, I love creating with beautiful chipboard
 pieces.  Today I have two Christmas cards made with the new Maja Design collection called "Woodland Christmas" and some amazing 2Crafty Chipboard pieces as shown below. I am not such a card maker but I do love making Christmas cards every once in a while. 

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

 Two Tall Christmas Cards:

2Crafty Chipboard used: 
Wicker Wreaths
Card - Word  Circle Set - Christmas
Swirly Star Border
11" Holly Frame Set
Lattice Leaves
Spring Flower Bunches 





The cards are 8,25 by 4,25 inch I really love to make them that tall {because then you can put a lot of chippies on them} all the chipboard pieces are first treated with some white gesso then I altered them in different ways. Both little circulair frames are treated with some green acrylic paint and then some matte rusty brown wax and in the end I added some snow. The flowers are handmade love to do that but it's very time consuming. On the "spring flower bunches" I just added several layers of lindy sprays in a green color.  



The lattice leaves are firstly treated with acrylic paint and on the tips of the leaves I added some golden embossing powder! On the card disk sentiments I also used that same embossing powder. the swirly star border I cut in half and used one piece on every card I treated that one with some red acrylic paint and some brown spray paint and inthe end some wax. 


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

Roxy's Flourish Vine
Fine Word Set 2

ATC Word Banner Set 1
Foliage Set 9




As you might know I love adding as many chipboard pieces as possible on my work. For this canvas I added eight. All of the pieces are treated with some white gesso the "Charlotte Page Flourish" was then altered matte acrylic paint after that with some spray paint and in the end with some wax. For the "Window Shutter Set 2" I did randomly paint it with three different kinds of acrylic paint all of them in a mate finish to give it a weathered look. 


The cute little bees from the "BeeYoutiful Set" are also painted with some acrylic paint and then I used some clear embossing powder on them and then to finish them I used some matte wax. On the "Foliage Set 9" I added some paint and on the top of the leaves I added some glitter {sadly you can't see that on the picture} The words are painted with some black paint and then I brushed some matte white wax on them. For the ATC banner that one was altered with embossing powder {clear} and I used a posca pen in black to write the word "Love You"
