Hi Everyone,
I'm so happy to show you my projects for this month.
I created 3 layouts with 2 different collections including one with the new Happy Accident papers.
They are really stunning!

So let's start with the first one.
I used the Spring Parade for this one, i wanted to keep it simple so the picture really stands out.
I wonder from who she get's her goofiness , lol!

'Happiness'

I used the Sunday Best paper, a stencil with modeling paste and oil pastels with some water for the background. Behind my photo i used a piece of the Market place paper.
I chose the Happiness word from the Good Vibes word set, i used it with the new lavender eggs embossing powder.
And the other chipboard pieces are the Ginger Poppies, i used those with the snow embossing powder and tucked them behind my photo.
For my flower clusters i used the Chesterville Blooms, Harvest Lilies and a few of my own stash.
I used a mix of sequins to give it more color and playfulness.

Behind my photo i used some moddeling paste with a baroque stencil and some sprays for the color.
I also used the tattered newsprint stamp with the vintage gold embossing powder to give my background more color.
As my chipboard title i used The Big Day from the Wedding Words set which i embossed with the vintage Gold Embossing Powder.

February projects by Tartine Peluche

Hi Everyone!

Today, it's my turn on the Blue Fern Studios blog and I'm so excited to share with you my new projects. A new collection will be soon announced and I had the pleasure to work it to show it to you.
One of my favorites at this time, I tell you, you must have it!

For beginning, here is my first layout : Believe.
I used a paper from the collection Timeless, another of my favorites.
I worked a lot on my background and used very few embellishments.
The chipboard being the main element of my page.
  


I choose the chipboard " Bordeaux Layered Frame " and I worked with texture paste.
Then I played the inks to give it a patina effect.

On the background I used the stamps Grungy Grid and Scratched with a solvent brown ink and a lot of work with texture paste, beads and others small embellishments gave the final touch of my layout.

I used several small flowers, including the white ones of the collection Heartland Roses and Blooms.
Then I emboss and cut a butterfly from a stamp, with Ginger embossing powder.


One of the details of my chipboard that I prefer is the lace that I glued to the back. It gives a totally shabby effect that I love.

Paper:

Chipboard:

===============


My second layout and the last one are made with the new collection coming out soon: Chesterville

For the first of two: Que sera sera.
I used two papers: Chester and Holmes.
I simply put a brush stroke of black gesso in the top left corner to the bottom of the page. Then I added a piece of Holmes paper and I embossed it with stamp Scratched and Black Sand embossing powder. As the paper has a checkered background I used a stencil with the same pattern. I did the same thing in the other two corners.

Some close-ups:

For the main chipboard Treasured Floral Frame I applied white gesso and Black Sand embossing powder, then, with a brush, I painted some places with purple wax.

I covered the chipboard with white gesso and I embossed it
with Black Sand embossing powder then I applied a purple wax.

All small flowers were painted in purple and embossed
with the stamp Scratched and Black Sand embossing powder.


I used the purple flowers of the collection Courtship Roses.

My last layout for this month: Smile all day long.

For this one I had created also with papers from Chesterville collection.
Background was realised with texture paste and stamps Crackles Textures, Coarse Fabrics and Serendipity Medley, some times used with brown solvent ink and other times with Ginger embossing powder. All the rest was worked with inks and embellishments of different sizes.

I used two chipboards for this project. One from the new collection,Chesterville, that I just embossed with Black Sand embossing powder and the other one, Organic Vine,
that I painted in green ink by playing the shades of color.
The wonderful green flower of Late Winter Lilies was perfect, I also added white roses fromes Heartland Roses and Blooms.

In love with the Courtship Lane collection (Karine)

Hi there, Blue Fern Studios fans,

I can't believe spring is here! And what better way to celebrate it than with our new Courtship Lane collection? It's gorgeous colors and pretty patterns are perfect for the season!

Love


For this layout, I used two paper as my background: Town Gossip and Concert Hall. I altered them with modeling paste and a stencil, and I added color with watercolor. I also used a card from the Calling Cards paper in my paper cluster.


My main chipboard piece is the Bordeaux Layered frame which come in two parts. The bottom one, I painted with white gesso and sprayed mists over it, to match the color in the background paper. For the swirly top part, I covered it with white gesso. I chose to leave it white because I thought it was contrasting over the pink chipboard.


While I was looking in my box of smaller chipboards, I found a little piece (you can see it in the picture above, just below my frame) that came from a flourish from the Leafy Page Accents. I painted it with white gesso also, to match the frame. I thought it filled the gap between my flower and my frame perfectly. I never throw away even the tiniest pieces: you never know when they can come handy.


My title piece, from the Adore, Love, Cherish set is also painted plain white.

Perfect


My second layout is way much colourful.than my first one. I chose the Parkway paper as my background. I was inspired by the colors of the feather on the left of the page. 


My composition on mainly based on the Whimzy Flourishes that frame my picture. I embossed them with Imagine Ink Garnet embossing powder. 


I created my flowers clusters around the two flourishes. I also fussy cut some flower from the Calling Cards paper to put in my clusters, to give dimension. You can see, in a few places, that I used the Forever stamp set to add a bit of texture to my background. 


My title, part of the Perfect, Adorable, Special set, is embossed with Imagine Ink Iris embossing powder.

Happy


My last layout uses the beautiful West Plaza paper. I chose the colors of my layout based on the damask pattern of the paper.


I used the Garden Frolic stamp set to stamp randomly on my background.


To frame my picture, I used the Celebration Hearts, which I embossed with Imagine Ink Snow embossing powder. I built my flower clusters around them.


My title piece, from The Optimist Word Set, was embossed with Imagine Ink Lilac embossing powder and glued over my embellishments.

I hope my creations inspired you.
Have a nice crafty day.
