Most of the chipboard pieces are treated with white gesso & magicals the magicals i used in different way's some with gesso, some with adding acrylic paints & other with just a spray bottle.

I had so much fun creating this shaker the chipboard pieces are treated the same was as the project above. On both project I used a picture of our vacation to Greece {Kos} this June. 

With these projects I will be entering this months color challenge at the Lindy's Creative Gang Facebook Page love the magical set of this month "Summer Break" you can use the colors bald but also make the lighter with white. For the first project you can see that I used four colors of the set and that I used different techniques {and used white paint to make it lighter} & the second project I also used the blue and made it less light. 

With this mixed media panel I will be entering the challenge at the  Hobby Vision blog ~143~Vlinders and maybe many of you know I love vlinders on this piece I used 5 of them they are rub-ons that I added on cardstock and then I cut them out to place on my panel. 

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 blessed & sunny rest of the week! 

Paradise Found layout for ***2Crafty Chipboard***!!

Hello my lovely friends,
It's a lovely day to visit my blog, for today I have another layout to share with you. Since I am in the summer mood I made a layout with a picture of my sweet cousin Jaime in some tropical place. On this layout I did a lot of mixed media like using crackle paste, plaster paste, stenciling & spraying I also did that on my beautiful 2Crafty chipboard. 

 Paradise Found:

  2Crafty Chipboard used: 
Fine Word Set 1
Paradise Found
Circle Word Tag Set 1
Intricate Seahorses
Seashells Set 2
Palm Leaves Set
Leafy Shrub Set 3

First I painted all the chipboard pieces with white gesso, then I used some rust paste on the Leafy Shrub Set 3 which I then painted with two different shades of acrylic paint & waxes. The seahorse was treated with some starburst spray and some crackle paste {the translucent kind}. On the "Paradise Found" phrase I added two different embossing powder because I didn't had the color I wanted.

Then I also treated it with same crackle paste as the seahorse after that I added some wax on the word found to make it a different color the word "forever" was placed on the phrase that one was painted with rust paste. In the end I added some spray and art stones. The papers I have used are by ScrapAndMe the Sunflower collection.

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 blessed & sunny week!

Believe in Magic Card for ***Cheery Lynn Designs*** and Playing at ***Cuts2luv***!

Goodmorning lovelies, 

Today I would like to share another card with you and this time it's a summer card. For this card I used all Maja Design papers and just three Cheery Lynn Designs dies {and I can tell you that was a hugh challenge for me}....Maybe you wonder why I used just three dies well I am always trying to add a twist to my work when I am creating to let me think outside the box for once. So for this card my challenge was to only use three dies. 

Believe in Magic: 

This card is made out of three layers....I also added a flair to it which sais be-you-tiful! The flower is made out off two different sized dies to give if more folume. For this card I used some soft yellow/orange papers with a touch of teal. 

At the end I sprayed some white ink and added some flatback pearls and a treat through the eyelets yo complete my card and I really love how it turned out....do you like it too? 

With this card I will be entering this months challenge at the Cuts2luv blog this time it's a real summery challenge just take a look at the board: 

What I used from this board is the colors yellow/orange and grey also I used pattern polka dot on the yellow background paper and the embellishment thread too so that is three this time ;-) 

Cheery Lynn Design dies used:

B338 - Black Eyed Susan Strip

SF-3 - Stacker Flower #3

B144 - Celtic Heart

Thank you so much for visiting my blog today!

I hope you enjoyed my post and I have inspired you to use your Cheery Lynn Designs dies.
Have a wonderful day and lovely weekend!

Precious Card for ***Cheery Lynn Designs***

Hi lovelies, 

As winter is not trying it's best to be very cold and snowy here in The Netherlands!

 I am longing for those warm day's already....so for today's post I used the pretty "Frolic"collection by the Blue Fern Studios to make a summery card. 

It's totally in contrast as what I posted on my Facebook page yesterday lol

As much as I love to make winter projects I also love fluttery summer and spring projects. 

I did a lot of stitching one this card which I love to do. 

Precious: 

 Every time I see this word it makes me giggle inside because of the movie "The Lord of the Rings"with Smeagol saying "My Precious"talking to the ring hihihi

This was a really fun and easy card to make if you want to know you can always email me and ask!

You can find my email address on my blog but now let's have a closer look:

First I cut out the largest die of the CM6 - A2 Frames Rectangle Scalloped as the base of my card and I also cut out the third one from the inside out to layer my text on. As you can see on my card I stitched on it as I do on most of my projects....with the machine though because it's way faster. Hand stitching though is way more prettier I think.

I really love all the flower dies by Cheery Lynn and the B324 - Poinsettia Strip which I used here is no exception normally I make my flowers more shabby but this time I only curled the leaves to give it more dimension.

Cheery Lynn Designs dies used: 

CM6 - A2 Frames Rectangle Scalloped

B324 - Poinsettia Strip

B178- Flourish Leaf Strip

CAFLRS - Flourish #13 {set of 2}

B682 - Quadrafoil Tag {January Release}
