Altered Christmas Cheer Frame - 2 Crafty Chipboard

 Hi there!

Just popping in today to share the Second of my DT projects for August for 2 Crafty Chipboard.  I have altered a wooden frame. 

"Christmas Cheer"

2 Crafty Chipboard

*Christmas Cheer

*Majestic Reindeer Set

*Royal Oval Frame

*Celebration Swirls

I have used the gorgeous new Mintay "Merry & Joy" Collection to decorate the inside photo frame panels.

I first coloured all the chippie pieces with a couple of coats of gesso.  Once dry I randomly sprayed Kaisercraft Red Iridescent Spray on the Royal Oval Frame, Celebration Swirl and Christmas Cheer Title chippies.  I then sponged more gesso over the Celebration Swirl Christmas Cheer Title chippies to lighten them up.  I left the Majestic Reindeer chippies just painted with gesso. 

I added the Royal Oval Frame chippie to the centre of the frame and then added the Christmas Cheer Title.  I decorated the Frame with some Christmas Poinsettia flowers and fussy cut elements.  To finish off I tucked in a Celebration Swirl chippie to the flower cluster along the bottom of the Frame and the Majestic Reindeer chippies to the bottom right of the Frame.

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

Click Capture - 2 Crafty Chipboard

Hi there!

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

"Click Capture"

2 Crafty Chipboard Used:

*11" Floral Heart Frame

*6 x 6 Circle Frame Set

*Click Capture Title

*Fancy Set 2 Borders

I have used the beautiful Uniquely Creative 'Sweet as Honey' Collection to create the base for my Layout.

I first gave all the chippie pieces a couple of coats of gesso.  Once dry I sprayed Heidi Swapp Color Shine Mustard Spray onto the Click Capture Title, Fancy Border & Circle Frame chippies.  For the Floral Heart Frame chippie I mixed some of the Heidi Swapp Color Shine Mustard Spray with gesso to lighten the colour.  I used the lighter mixed colour to paint the actual Heart part of the frame and used a darker shade of the Mustard spray to paint the flowers on the Heart.

I added the Floral Heart Frame chippie to my base page, tucked in my photo under the left side of the Frame.  I cut the the Fancy Border chippie into pieces and tucked several pieces under my photo.  I added lots of paper blooms and coordinating die cuts around the Floral Heart Frame chippie.  I randomly tucked in some of the Circle Frame chippies amongst the paper blooms.  To finish off my page I added the Click Capture Title chippie.

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