These cold case files that Debbie sets out for us really are just great; I always head into the furtherest reaches of my stash to pull goodies out. Here is the latest challenge:
Though this image is a ‘busy’ one, my eye was drawn to that chair over and over. Then I remembered that chair ephemera piece that I have stuck away some where so out it came – at least it matched the colour scheme! I also popped some button stickers on and grabbed a pair of pretty chipboard pieces from my 2 Crafty stash!
I chose to work on a more plain (cream) background and then added bursts of colour using teal, lime green, kingfisher blue and yellow. Here are some close ups:
Today I want to share my next project, created exclusively for 2 Crafty Chipboard.
I just love these chippie pieces – the selection is HUGE and the quality is superb. Please head on over to the 2C blog, where you will not only find close ups of my piece, but also details on the chipboard pieces I used here and also direct links on where you can to get them. Follow them on their blog too, to get regular inspiring posts from my fellow DT members.
This month at MIUCB, we’d like to see what you create doing Anything Goes + Mixed Media.
For this challenge, I created this ethereal type layout of my daughter. I added some gesso and texture paste to the background and then I also used mists on my 2 Crafty chipboardwings and gauze; and I heat embossed the title.
I felt that the inspiration image was ‘clean’, so I opted to stick to that when creating my layout. I used a plain white background, and then I added some woodgrain print, a camera and some labels. I used red, white, sky blue, yellow and grey on my layout.
My chippie circle frames are from 2 Crafty. I also added in some filmstrip ephemera to carry the theme of the camera’s across.
My journaling was to select my favourite picture and then say why. Well… my favourite pictures changes constantly! Whenever I have a new one of the 3 of us, it will become my favourite. Why? Because I have so few (it’s usually my partner and daughter or just my daughter whose photo’s get taken and / or featured) – so when I do happen to take one or have one taken, I love it!
This month at Off The Rails Scrapbooking, we have a beautiful Hippie inspired mood board for you to join in on:
For this challenge, I was inspired primarily, by the colour scheme of the image in the lower right hand corner. To add to the hippie effect, I added some fussy cut feathers and flowers. I used a gorgeous 2 Crafty Chipboard Dandelion puff to add to my piece and I used one of their little titles too.
Here are a few close ups of this piece.
We would love you to join in on this challenge – remember that we have changed our set up to Facebook submissions!
Because of the animal themed mood board, I decided to scrap a photo of my daughter at our recent visit to an Alpaca farm! I was inspired by the swirls of the chocolate icing, so I added a 2 Crafty chipboard frame (cut in half) to my layout).
Here are a few close up shots. My gorgeous title is also from 2 Crafty chipboard.
Just LOOK at this beautiful sketch we have for you to play along with this month at Scrap The Girls!!!
Isn’t it absolutely beautiful?? Here is what I created:
I wanted to make my pictures stand out, so I used papers from the colour scheme of the photograph; and then I added a chipboard title from my 2 Crafty stash. I fussy cut some flowers and butterflies and I used both Tombow and foam dots to adhere them so as to give this layout some depth.
