A Cheeky Moment Captured Layout for ***2Crafty Chipboard***!

 Hello and goodmorning lovely friends,
How wonderful of you all to stop by my blog, this is my first layout for the month of April. We are getting more and more warmer weather and how I love that. For today I have another layout to share with you and this was such a great one to make I especially love that cheeky picture of Abbey. For this layout I used a 2016 paper collection by BoBunny called "Secret Garden" and a bunch of wonderful 2Crafty Chipboard pieces. Enjoy my post....


A Cheeky Moment Captured:

It was a while back that I used rust paste on my work so that is what I did on thie layout. It gives your chipboard that extra vintage feeling you will probably see more of that from me soon. 

After I applied the rust paste I also added some waxes on the other pieces I added some acrylic paints in different colors and on some of the chippies I used my alcohol/aqua pens like the green on the 12x12 Braches Frame Set which is a absolute new favorite of mine. 

Thank you so much for your visit today. And I sure hope that I have inspired you to take out your lovely 2Crafty Chippies and create and have fun while doing so. Have a wonderful & happy rest of the week!

Today One I Will Remember Layout for ***2Crafty Chipboard***!

Hello lovely friends,
I am so happy you stopped by my blog, today I made another layout to show you and again it's with a baby picture love doing layout's with cute babies lately. This baby is the son of my ex co-worker who became a first time mom in 2024. I have used some new and older chipboard pieces that combined perfectly with some prima paper & flowers. 



Today One I Will Remember:

Most of the chipboard pieces are altered with some white gesso but I also left some of them just in their raw state, sometimes it just fits better that way. The white chipboard pieces on my layout are made white with some acrylic matte paint. 



On the vintage steampunk clock clusters I added some different color waxes. The other chipboard pieces are coloured with my aqua/alcohol markers in a chocolate color & the dainty foilage stems in a dark green sage color and to finish them I added some of my waxes. 

 Thank you so much for your visit today. And I sure hope that I have inspired you to take out your lovely 2Crafty Chippies and create and have fun while doing so. Have a wonderful & happy rest of the week!

Love You Sweetheart Layout for ***2Crafty Chipboard***!

 Goodmorning lovely friends,
I am so happy you stopped by the blog today, and again I used a picture of our lovely Abbey when she was a cute little baby, I sometimes miss that time & think how fast it went by. A while back I bought some amazing papers by Alchemy of Art and I finally got to use it they coördinate so well with the 2Crafty Chipboard as most papers do. Enjoy my post.....


Love You Sweetheart

Sweet Moment



Like my last layout I did some fussy cutting here for the pretty flower. I really love the blue & the greens in this collection so I altered the chipboard pieces that way too. The amazing Berry Vine Set & Mini Branches are treated with some white gesso and matt chalk polish by Creative Expressions.



For the frame and words I used my aqua/alcohol markers again I so love using those. In the end I used some matt white wax to age it a little.


Thank you so much for your visit today. And I sure hope that I have inspired you to take out your lovely 2Crafty Chippies and create and have fun while doing so. Have a wonderful & happy rest of the week!

A Daughter is a Little Girl Layout for ***2Crafty Chipboard***!

 Hello lovely friends,
I am so happy you stopped by my blog today, For today I have another layout to share with you, this time right up my alley a overload of pinks & a touch of teal/aqua. Those are my absolute favorite colors to scrap but who am I kidding lots of colors are. The picture I used is one of Abbey that I used once before for another project with 2Crafty Chipboard. Enjoy my post..


A Daughter is a Little Girl


I did some fussy cutting for this layout and the chipboard pieces are treated with some white gesso. I used different colors of alcohol markers & and a text stamp on the pretty swirl that I cut up and tucked in my flower clusters.



Behind the pretty handdrawn flower & the arrow journal spot I added some of the light coloured text paper that is also in the top left corner of my layout. I cut the phrase apart and used on two spots on my layout. Loved making this layout!!

My Soulmate Layout for ***2Crafty Chipboard***!

Hello and goodmorning lovely friends,
How wonderful of you all to stop by my blog, this is my first layout for the month february the month of love as we all know. So this year will mark 27 years of being together with "my soulmate" that's why I called my layout this way. The picture I used is on of us both during a wedding of a now 
ex-colleague of my husband last may. 

My Soulmate

Gorgeous 2 Crafty Chipboards used: 
Frame Chained Hearts
11" Circular Leafy Frame
Frame Chained Circles
Scrabble Tiles
Beaded Hanging Heart Set
Heart Clumps
Crazy About You
Foliage Set 12
Ruby's Swirl
Frame Yvettes



This layout was sitting in a plastic layout holder for like a whole year! I started it but then my inspiration for it got lost along the way, I hope I am not the only one with that problem sometimes. Now I finally had the inspiration & right chippies to finish it. 

I treated the chipboard pieces with one layer of white gesso, then I used both my aqua/alcohol markers to color them in different colors. Behind some of the pieces I added papers from the same collection. I have to say I am in love with the new Foliage Set 12 just as much as I am with my husband hahaha just kidding.

Thank you so much for your visit today. And I sure hope that I have inspired you to take out your lovely 2Crafty Chippies and create and have fun while doing so. Have a wonderful & happy rest of the week!

A Precious Moment Layout for *2Crafty Chipboard* + Playing at Lindy's Moodboard Challenge January 2025!

Goodmorning lovely friends, 
Thank you so much for taking the time to visit the 2Crafty blog, I hope I can inspire you with my layout to take out your lovely 2Crafty Chipboard and have some fun. For today I have a cute baby layout - one I made for my ex-colleague, she had a baby boy in June and she always loves my work so she asked me to make her a layout and so I did. 


A Precious Moment

Gorgeous 2Crafty Chipboard used: 
Thin Square Stacked Frames
Mini Buttons
Loopy Heart Swirl
A Moment With You
Beaded Hanging Heart Set
Fine Word Set 2
Funky Heart Swirls
Corner Annalise
Baby's Clothesline
2024's



Oh my gosh how I love the aqua/alcohol markers it's so easy to add them to your chipboards that it takes a hour less creating. You can add it to just raw chipboards or chipboards treated with gesso. It just makes it a lot easier. 


So all the chipboard pieces are treated with the markers to match the colors of my papers. I have used some soft tones like yellows, greens, browns & white. As most of you maybe know I love to cut up phrases and add words to it I also did that here. 

 With this layout I will be entering this months moodboard challenge at the Lindy's Creative Gang Facebook Page which is new this year you have to use calm & circles. I think you all know what the calm part is {that cute little baby} and for the circles I used two sprays here: Clam Bake Beige & Sea Grass Green to make the circle splatters also the buttons and frames are circles. Here is tyhe moodboard: 

Thank you so much for your visit today. And I sure hope that I have inspired you to take out your lovely 2Crafty Chippies and create and have fun while doing so. Have a wonderful & happy week!
