2CUTE Round Mixed Media Panel for ***2Crafty Chipboard***!

  Good morning lovely friends.
Thank you so much for stopping by my blog. Since the 30th of September we have a new furbaby in our household, our daughter Abbey love cats so much. That we bought her a little surprise a beautiful black kitten and she has named her "Oreo"! When she is upset at her she will call her "Oreo Mimi Voorthuis" she told me. That made me laugh outloud so very hard I almost peed in my pants. Enjoy my post....


2 Cute Darling Oreo:

On the word "2Cute" I just added some paper which I used on my panel it's from a collection back in 2015. I just love this colour combination yellow & blue. The pretty foliage was firstly treated with some white gesso and you can guess what I used next right? hahaha my amazing alcohol markers I just love how the work on the pretty chippies. 



For the rest of the chippies I also added a layer of white gesso too, after that I used a mixed of colours and aqua/alcohol markers. Behind the shutters I added some ofthe papers too I liked it much better that way.

Giant Gears 
Foliage Set 12
Cassie Flourish

Frame Madeline Flourish
Francesca's Journal Frames





I altered most of my chippies with some white gesso then for the frames I used my aqua & alcohol markers in different colours. Normally I love to add a bunch of phrases & words but for this one I used none which was a huge test for me lol...



For the giant gears I altered those with some brown rust paste after I primed them with two layers of white gesso. After that I added two of them on top of each other with some glue and a huge brad to add some demension. The tabs Vanessa made for my I left them in their raw state which look the best on my box.

  Good morning lovely friends.
How wonderful of you all to stop by the 2Crafty blog, this is my second layout for the month of September. In our summervacation we went to movie park Germany with the kids as Abbey loves SpongeBob SquarePants & Paw Patrol and Kevin loves rollercoasters and scary stuff. We went there for two days with a sleep in a hotel nearby, we had a lot of fun seeing our kids this happy. Off course Abbey wanted to be on a picture with SpongeBob and I wanted to scrap that right away so I did! 
Enjoy my post....

Foliage Set 16  
Fine Word Set Months 
Word Circle Set 2

All the chipboard pieces but the word "august" & "foliage set 16" are altered with black gesso then I added some yellow acrylic paint on the filmstrip and top part of the circle "tons of fun"with a sponge on the other pieces I added some sea glass metallique wax and white gesso. The word august is just altered with some white acrylic paint without a primer like gesso.



 Behind the tons of fun circle I placed a piece of paper the same as the middle part of my layout. The foliage set 16 I just used my twinmarkers on and later added some white acrylic paint. The phrase that smile from the mini title stick set 3 I added some white faber castell pen on to make it pop a little more.
