Three layouts, three collections by Marie-Josee

Hello, Blue Fern Studios fans!

Today, I will show you three layouts I created with the latest Blue Fern Studios collections!

"Happy" layout with the Serendipity collection

Here's the layout I created with the latest collection, Serendipity. I used the Imagination paper as my background, with I altered with black ink and the Arcadia Textures stamps.

The chipboard I used in the background is the Turkish Panel. I used only a part of it.

I altered it first with a black ink pad. Then, I used the Sea Mist embossing powder on top. I did not cover it completely. I wanted to see some black.

For the title, I used a chipboard from the Happy, Heart, Love chipboard set. I altered with a black ink pad, and I also added teal spray ink.

"Love" layout with the Blush collection:

For the background of this layout, I used the Charmed paper from the Blush collection.

I used the Frilly Hearts chipboard set as the focal point of my layout. First, I altered them with light pink paint. Then, I embossed them with the Cotton Candy embossing powder. Using the Brocade Texture stamp, I added patterns here and there with embossing ink and color using the Fuchsia embossing powder.

 

"Dream Big" layout with the Timeless collection

The background of this layout is made of recycled cardboard, which I altered with various mediums.

I used scraps of paper of the Timeless collection that were left after I created other layouts. I love how their colors fit with the background of the picture I used.

I also used the Crossing the Lines chipboard behind my photo.

That's it for today. I hope you enjoyed seeing my projects!

Two mixed media projects by Marie-Josée

 Hello all,

I hope you are doing fine today. In this blog post, I will show you two mixed media projects I created using some of my favorite pieces of Blue Fern Studios chipboard, which are perfect for mixed media projects.

"Adorable" kitty canvas

This is my beautiful kitty, Pretzel. She passed away on April 20 at the age of 16. I wanted to create something in her memory and I thought a canvas would be perfect.

First, I chose a 6" x 12" canvas. I cut a piece of the Mini Rings Panel and glued it to my canvas. Then, I applied gesso all over my canvas. I also applied gesso to the heart (from the Frilly Hearts set) and the circles (from the Graduated Circles set).

The word Adorable (from the French Words set) was heat embossed with black embossing powder.

Then, I painted the whole thing using various ColourArte products : paints, gels and mists. I mainly used teal, but I also added touches of gold and purple here and there. I finished with black and white ink splatters.

Here's a close-up view of the Frilly Heart and the Graduated Circles...

 

... and here's a closeup view of the background!

Blue Fern Studios products used:

Graduated Circles

Frilly Hearts

Mini Rings Panel

French Words

Angel canvas

 

 

For this canvas, I used the colors of the Déjà Vu collection as my inspiration. I used of piece of the Friperies paper as my starting point. I cut it to fit a piece of the Graduated Squares set.

Here's a closeup view of the Déjà Vu paper and a piece of the Graduated squares set.

I worked exactly the same way I worked for the previous canvas, using similar products. I just used different colors and different chipboards. Here you see a close-up view of a piece of the Turkish Bits set as well as of a piece of the Layering Stems set.

Finally, I also used a stamp from the Halftone Stamps set, which matches the Déjà Vu collection, with black ink.

February projects by Ulrika Blomfelt

Hello! I´m so happy to share some new projects created with the new collection called Love Story. Valentines day is in just a week and I want to give cards for my loved ones. But before I show you the cards I created I have a layout to show you all!

I have a sweet spot for black when I create. The new collection has lovely red colors but also some black papers. When you create with the black ones you can add any color of your choice just like I did here. 

I used the Mesh bits with my flowers.

I also used all of the new gorgeous stamp sets. I mainly used them for texture and contrasts on my layout. You get a really cool effect!

This page is created after the February sketch. Hope you will join us!
I used Ombre Dreams and both Arrow words and the lovely Spring Branch.

I used a black pen to make my leaves more visable.

I actually cut my branch in to three pieces.

And now over to my Love cards! Have you noticed how pretty the label strips are on the papers? I hate to see lovely supplies go to waste so I braided the strips and made a cute background.
It was a bit difficult to take photos so that the layered black hearts are properly visible. Sorry for that.

My next card is in a bit more romantic style. I used the Frilly Hearts here also but I coverd it with a paper and made sure that the words fitted my Arrow Sweet Word chipboard. This is a fun and playful way to mix your title!

Thank you for looking at my work! Hugs from Ulrika!
