BeeYOUtiful Journey Layout for ***2Crafty Chipboard***!!!

  Goodmorning lovely friends, 

Today I show you some inspiration on my blog. For this post I made another layout and again I used some of my favorite colors like purple and green & chipboard pieces by 2Crafty Chipboard. I used a picture of our beautiful children and a colorful paper collection. Not  so long ago I discovered that 2Crafty Chipboard lends itselfs really good to sew on it and so I did here with the pretty Frame Maria's.

Fine Word Set 3

BeeYOUtiful Set

I treated all the chipboard pieces with white gesso and for the swirly pieces & the word journey. I made them green with some matte acrylic paint then I added some wax in a stained wood color. The word "BeeYOUtiful" was treated with three different acrylics in the color purple. 

I just love adding the fine word set words to other phrases or words that gives it more demension don't you think so too? The pretty Frame Maria's was treated with several layers of different colors of embossing powders {white & light purple} Then I machine stitched around the circle & the straight and ik that circle I added a phrase from the paper collection I used here. 

Sure hope you like my layouts as much as I love making them. 

Stay happy & creative much

Nice Moments Layout for ***ScrapAndMe***!!!

 Hello lovely creative friends, 

For today's inspiration I created a 12 by 12 layout with Abbey's first school picture, her with a big smile like I know her. Normally when we take pictures of her at a photographer she always puts her hands in front of her eyes or makes angry faces. That's why was a little surprised when I saw this sweet picture. 

Smile {Nice Moments} 

I used a punch from Martha Stewart for the darker pink sheet which I then hand stitched the rest of the stitching is done with a sewing machine. I used a stencil, some flowers and a mould to create the rest of the layout and off course some fussy cut elements.

Wonderful Day Layout for ***ScrapAndMe***!!!

Hello Lovely Friends!
 Happy 1st of August to you today I bring you some more inspiration. This time I used several collections for the background I used the darker sheet of the Woods collection. I stitched around the edges on that sheet and later on I added a stencil. To matt my picture I used a leftover from the "Bright & Soft" collection and the rest of my layout was created with the "Sapphire Days" collection another favorite of mine. 

Wonderful Day: 

For this layout I did a lot of fussy cutting for me this layout was very quickly created normally it takes me about five to six hours to make a layout but this one was within three hours {fussy cutting excluded} 

I finished my layout by adding a bunch of butterflies from the butterflies sheet and to give my stencil work a little more demension I added nuvo crystal drops on it randomly and at the end I sprayed with some white spray.

Spring Smile Layout for ***ScrapAndMe***!!

 Hello Lovely Friends! 
I am still so delighted that I am part of this wonderful design team these papers are so freaking pretty that I am in scrapbooking heaven everytime I am in my scraproom. Spring Purple has to be my alltime favorite for sure. I really wanted to scrap this picture of Abbey for a while now and the "Spring Purple"collection was the perfect fit for it. 

Spring Smile: 

I really love the look of wrinckled papers on my layouts the papers of ScrapAndMe are perfect for that technique. The big flower is handmade what I really like to do although it's very time consuming I find it very relaxing. On the background of my layout I stitched around the edges with my sewing machine and I used a stencil fot more intresting parts on my work. 

I love to add clocks to my work so I did here I was a little inspired by the newest moulds that where just released. I also added some mould hearts which I painted with purple acrylic paint & some wax. I cut out the word spring to add to my layout from the cover of the collection pack. For the finishing touch I added paper clips, art stones, lace and jute cord. I also did a lot of fussy cutting here.

My Wish for You to Find Joy in the Ordinary Tag for *Scrap And Me* Challenge #94 use the color pallette & Playing at *More Than Words* Mini Challenge!!!

 Hello sweet crafty friends, 

Happy July it's the 8th of the month and that means another challenge over at the ScrapAndMe blog. This time the challenge is "Let yourself be inspired by the color pallete" and that is very easy since the new collection "Spring Purple" has those colors. I made this tag with one of the new moulds by Finnabair "Baroque Frames" 

My Wish for You to Find Joy in the Ordinary: 

I took my largest tag die that I own to create this tag I stitched around the edges with my sewing machine. I slightly moved the smaller piece of paper to the right to create more dimension I also lifted it up a little with foam tape. The flowers are handmade with some of my flower dies I always wet them a little and fold them up like little balls and wrinkle them a lot before drying them. 

Then I used my gorgeous new mould by finnabair "Baroque Frames" that I painted with acrylic paints and waxes. This was a really fun tag to make and I hope you are going to play too it would be nice to see what you all will create.
