2 Crafty Chipboard - 'This is US' layout

Hello There!
Today! Sharing a layout I created as part of my July DT work for 2 Crafty Chipboard....
This layout featuring, my family & capturing silly moment, 
which is quite regular for our family.... lol!

'This is US' 


2 Crafty Chipboard used: 
This is US
6" funky line panel
2016
 'Treasure' Fine word set 1




I starting with creating my mixed media background,
 then added a couple of  paper layers and my black & white photo...


Next adding a POP of colour by cutting the 6" funky line panel into 
smaller pieces, inking these pieces with some nice bright colors 
& placing these randomly thoughout my page...


Both the 2016 & the Fine word 'Treasure' from set 1 
have been inked with black...
AND my title This is US I have given it 3 thick coats of gesso!!


I am really happy with how this page turned out! 
Hopefully you have been inpsired you to add 
a POP of colour to your next creation...

Until next time!

2 Crafty Chipboard - 'My Gorgeous Nephew' layout

Hello There!!

 Today i'm sharing this layout I created as part of 
July 2019 DT work for 2 Crafty Chipboard inspired 
by the 2 Crafty Chipboard title 
My Gorgeous Nephew


I am pretty lucky I have 7 gorgeous nephews, 
featuring is just one of those nephews.... 

I just love how this photo captures those beautiful blue eyes he has...

 2 Crafty Chipboard: 


2018 
My Gorgeous Nephew
Assort chain borders
Small film strip
ATC - Tiny Stars  


Once I had created my mixed media background, 
I then used the leftover/negative pieces from Adian's arrow, 
painted this with gesso & attaching this just to give another level of contrast....

Aidan's Arrows (units of 3)



Using only 1 strip from the Assort chain borders cutting into 
 2 small strips inking with black & adhering them against the white...

Also! Inked with black the title My Gorgeous Nephew




I cut into 2 lengths a Small film strip colouring both 
pieces with Tim Holtz - Distress Crayons
 to coordinate nicely with the two toned background paper....


Painted a couple of coats of gesso to the 2018 


Did the same treatment as the I did to the film strip
 to the ATC - Tiny Stars, adding teal colour to some & green to others...


That's it from me today!
Thanks for stopping by...
