Grandma's Attic Cards - 2 Crafty Chipboard

Hello there! 

Just popping in today to share the last of my DT projects for July for 2 Crafty Chipboard.   I have created a set cards for my second share.


2 Crafty Products Used:

*Hexagon Outline Frames Set
*Frame Doodled
*Card - Word Circle Set - Sentiments
*ATC Butterflies
*Mini Branches
*Foliage Set 18



I created each of my card bases using the gorgeous Mintay "Grandma's Attic" Paper Collection. 

I first gave all the chippie pieces a couple of coats of gesso.  I then used coloured the Frames, Butterflies and Sentiment chippie pieces with Golden Glow Opal Polish.  I left the Mini Branches and Foliage chippie pieces as is with just gesso on them.

To construct each of the cards I added either a Hexagon or Doodled Frame chippie to each.  I 
then embellished them with die cut flower elements from the Mintay Flora Books 8 & 9 and paper blooms. I tucked in either the Mini Branches or Foliage chippies amongst the blooms and finished each card with a chippie Sentiment from the Card - Word Circle Set.

See each card below.





Thats' all from me today, I hope I have inspired you all a little with my Grandma's Attics Cards.  Until next time thanks so much for stopping by.

Choose Happy - 2 Crafty Chipboard

Hi there!

Just popping in today to share the first of my DT projects for July for 2 Crafty Chipboard.  I have created a layout. 

"Choose Happy"


2 Crafty Chipboard Used:

*Choose Happy
*Boho Floral Clusters
*Flower Doilies


I have used the gorgeous Uniquely Creative 'While Away' Collection to create the base for my layout.  


I first painted the Choose Happy & Flower Doily chippies with a coat of Gesso.  Once dry I added a little amount of Vibrant Turquoise Dylusions Paint to some gesso and then randomly dabbed this onto the chippie pieces.  The Boho Floral Clusters I have left raw.


I added some fussy cut tags from the "While Away" collection under my photo.  I cut the Flower Doily chippie in half and tucked a half along each side of my photo.  I added fussy cut flowers and paper blooms to the top and bottom of my photo and tucked a raw Boho Floral Cluster chippie into each of these.   I finished off my page by adding the Choose Happy chippie to the bottom left of my layout.


Thats' all from me today, I hope I have inspired you all with my Layout.  Until next time thanks so much for stopping by.
