Projects by Kerryn Lawson

 

Hi, Kerryn here and I would like to share some of my recent Blue Fern Studios projects with you on the blog today.

 

I am always looking to add new cards to my stash so that I am prepared when those last minute invitations arrive.  Chipboard adds instant impact to your card and with the variety of products in the Blue Fern Studios range there is a chipboard design to suit every occasion.

 

For my first card I have combined a nested circle chipboard with a piece from the ironwork accents set.  Both pieces were primed with gesso before white paint, vintage photo distress ink and perfect gold Perfect Pearls were randomly applied to suit the neutral colour palette I was working to.

For my second card I have gone to the complete opposite end of the colour scale opting to bring out some bright, happy colours.

 

I wanted to create depth of colour on my industrial gears chipboard so I have inked the chipboard with yellow chalk ink before applying and heat setting yellow embossing powder.  The chalk ink works quite well with embossing powder but gives you a more rustic, uneven finish than embossing ink will.

Along with the cards I have also created a layout featuring one of my absolute favourite Blue Fern Studios products, the Brigitte butterfly.

 

On this occasion I wanted to replicate the distressed feel from the papers with the treatment of both the butterfly and flourish chipboard pieces.  To do this I have used paint in a number of colours but as the layers have been built up the paint was added randomly rather than to the entire piece.  Once the paint had dried, the chipboard was gently sanded to expose both the different paint layers and the raw chipboard.

Perfect gold Perfect Pearls was added to the centre of the butterfly wings to add a touch of contrast to the blue/green and white.

Two projects with Irina Gerschuk

Hi ladies!
It's Irina with you today. And I'd like to share with you my two new cards using gorgeous BFS products.
The first one:

Close-ups:
I painted the butterfly with different acrylic paints than randomly added some micro beads and after all covered it with lacquer-finish:

 The "Blooming Flourish" was first painted wish acrylic paint and than covered randomly with embossing powder with flock effect. I wanted to achieve some soft texture and made the color be more equal to the paper:

 Some beads and sisal were covered with flowers:

I used here:

"Blooming Flourish"

"Brigitte Butterfly Set":

Two cards and a notebook with Irina Gerschuk

Hi there, my dear scrapbook friends!

It's Irina with you today and I'm super excited to show my new projects using the BFS products)))

Му first project is a birthday card:

I used "Organic Vine" here as a central element:

Covered it with white embossing powder and then added puff effect. After I glued it to the paper I added some micro beads:

BFS "Organic Vine" (model 074516):

My second project is a shabby card:

I used "Calligraphic Border", "Symphony Border" and "Heart Set" here:

I painted the heart with whip paint, glued an angel to it and added different pearls. After all I added a thick layer of glossy accent on the pearls to make it looks like an all-in-one piece:

The "Calligraphic Border" and the "Symphony Border" I covered with white opaque  embossing powder:

The BFS pieces I used here:

"Calligraphic Border" (model 074363)

"Symphony Border" (model 074530)

Cowered it with white cradle paint:

A layout, a card and a tag by Camilla

Hi everybody! Camilla here. I am back to share some Blue Fern Studios projects today. I have made a layout, a card and a tag. First a layout with my smiling niece. For my layout I have used some gorgeous swirly chipboards to frame the photo.

To alter the chipboards I first applied Distress Stain (faded jeans) and then dabbed it with white gesso.

Supplies:

074509 Blooming Flourish 

Other products used:

Dies (Sizzix), papers (Creative Imaginations), doily, border punches, flowers (Manor House Creations, Prima), alpha stickers (Prima), leaves, digital dies

Then a simple card for every occasion - I haven't added any sentiment and have kept the colours very neutral.

Since I wanted a white washed look on the chipboard to match the lovely papers, I just dabbed it with white gesso.

Supplies:
074530 Symphony Border

Other products used:
Papers: Maja Design: Life By the Sea collection (The east coast)
Other: border punches, thread, die

And finally...my tag. I am going to use it as a card.

 I have just painted the chipboard pieces with white gesso and then on the vine chipboard I added some micro beads.

Supplies:

074622 Organic Vine Corner (large)

074561 Country Picket Fence

Other products used:

Papers: Maja Design: Life By the Sea collection (The east coast, Sailing)

Other: gesso, mini pearls, stamp (Pink Paislee), rub-on (Kaisercraft), ribbon, string, digital die, flowers (Prima), leaves

I hope you liked my projects!

See you!
