Handsome Little Man Layout for ***2Crafty Chipboard***!!!

  Goodmorning lovely friends, 

Today I show you some inspiration on my blog. For this occasion I made a layout with some beautiful 2crafty chippies and the "Hello Pumpkin" collection by Graphic 45 which is a autumn like collection.
I used two pictures {sometimes that is very challenging} of sweet AJ, the son of late Hannah {the daughter of my cousin who died two years back}
at a pumpkin patch as a baby. 

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

Handsome Little Man

2Crafty Chipboard used: 
Handsome Lil Man
Chain Lengths
Mini Title Stick Set 5
Frame Chained Circles 
Steampunk Chain Rectangle Frame
Industrial Light Bulbs 

I left most of the pretty chipboard pieces just like they are I only added a little wax. 

The Steampunk Chain Rectangle Frame was treated with some
rust effect paste and some acrylic paints.

 The title I treated with white gesso to later on add some gold embossing powder, 
well not the whole title. I also cut the rectangle frame in two pieces
 to fit my layout & picture. 

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
 much

I Love You Layout for ***Celebr8***!!!

  Goodmorning lovely fiends, 
Happy March to you all today I will show my second layout for the wonderful company Celebr8 for this layout I used the gorgeous "Thankful Heart Collection" which is full of amazing and warm/rich colors and many  pieces to fussy cut. I enjoyed working with this collection very much, I did some stitching on my layout around the edges and the picture I used is from our daughter Abbey being silly in fall leaves all around her.

I LoveYou: 

I did some lacing on the top left side of my layout because with all the collection from Celebr8 Australia you get embellishments like little beads, lace, lightweight metal pieces, buttons and so much more that I had to incorporated in my layout. On my background sheet I added one of my favorite clear stamps and the stencil that was included in this collection.

I really love the petty word strips in all of their collection you can use them on a card, mini album, tag, layout. I also added some lindy's stamp gang spray on my background that matches the yellow/orange colour of the sunflowers.

There was also some mini clothespins inclused and I used some extra of my own stash on the tags and on the cirkel wax wire/cord. To get demension on my layout I added some foam tape on some a little more then on the others.

You Light up my Life Layout for ***49 and Market*** & *** The Dusty Attic***!

Goodmorning lovelies,

Are you also loving the new 49 and Market collection as much as I do? It has such warm colors just perfect for Autumn so today I would like to show you another layout using that warm and gorgeous collection. Last week I went to the biggest hobby fair here in The Netherlands to help out at a scrapbook store I design for. They sell all the gorgeous 49 and Market products that I love so much. I made this layout at the hobby fair I never could have imagine that I could make a whole layout at such a event but I totally did 

You Light up my Life: 

I used all pretty chipboard pieces from the Dusty Attic that I treated with gesso, embossing powder, rust paste and waxes. The background was made with a stamp, a stencil and sprays. I also used different shades of the new flowers but also some of the mixology collection packs....which are amazing.

Behind my picture I added some of the trim burlap to give it more of that rusty feeling just like in the pictures I used. I was planning on using my eyelets in a different way then I normally do....most of the time I also add trim but here I didn't.

At the end I added a sort of pine cones that I got from my local dollar store to my flower clusters, two colors of mini prills and some liquid pearls for the finishing touch.....I added some wax on my flowers.

49 and Market products used: 

Rusty Autumn Collection: Backside of cover sheet, Pumpkin Patch & Reminiscent. Floral Mixology: Galway Gray, Mudslide, Emerald Isle. Seaside Blooms: Aloe Blossom Blends: Aloe and Garden Seeds: Linen.

With this layout I will be entering this months challenge at "Mixed Media and Art" this time they have a beautiful earthy toned mood board and a lovely sketch which I turned 90 degrees....I was really inspired by this sketch and the pretty bench with all the pretty curls that's why I used curly chipboard to get that same effect. Also the color of that same bench is what let me use the cream papers.....
