Sharon's May Pages!

Hi Everyone!

I can't believe that May is here already. ♥ I am very excited to be sharing my layouts with you this month!  

Here are my 3 scrapbook pages . . .  

♥ My First Layout:  Home Sweet Home

I used the Homespun collection for my first page.  Isn't it gorgeous?  I love the flip side of "Tea Time"(as seen below) and used it as the basis for my first layout:

Here is my 12 x 12 page:

I picked our family's Christmas card photo from 2016, which is one of my all-time favorite photos of our family.  This gorgeous paper compliments it beautifully, I think.  

A close up:

And a different view:

I especially enjoyed embellishing the raw chipboard floral/flourish wreath with embossing powder and glitter; and using the Homespun Printed Chipboard on this page.  I mixed things up by adding some Remnants Blooms here, too.

Some close ups to give you a better look at the details:

And a different view:

This layout was so much fun and very easy to make!  I LOVED using the gorgeous "In the Mood" collection.  The BFS glitter really jazzed it up, too!

This page was so much fun to make!  I especially loved embellishing the beautiful chipboard "Castle of Dreams."  I found it complemented a photo of me (from back in 2002) perfectly.  I actually met Cinderella at Disney World and have a funny story to tell about that experience.  I told my story in hidden journaling on the back of my page.

Here are some close ups:

And a different view:

Mixed Media projects by Tartine Peluche

Hello sweeties!
First, as you see, I'm always on the team! I'm so happy for that!
 I left the team last month because I was afraid of being unable to do 3 layouts
 per months with all the new change in my life ...
Everything arranged, and I'm here this month with 3 projetcs!! Yeahh, I did it!
I don't know if I'll be able to do it every months but I cross my fingers....
Everything's gonna be alright ... One day at a time...

So, let me introduce you my first project of month.
This is a layout, the others two are canvases...

************************************

*FLY*
( Remnants, Courtship Lane)

I started with the side B of Highgate paper as a base for my layout. Then, I tore my second paper, Bourbon Ave, and I placed it on my background in order to let see that the center of the first paper.

My Title ''Fly'' is embossed with Lavender Eggs .
All the others chipies are embossed with Ivory embossing powder.
At the moment when I designed this layout, BFS was no longer cutting chipboards ...
Happy news!!! They are back!!
Under my picture I placed 3 whole Spring Peony flowers. They are very big, BUT very beautiful!

A piece of lace 5 ( flowers and foliages only ) that I've inked and a
butterfly (from Butterflies Stamp ) stamped on acetate make a beautiful embellishment.

With the petals of Spring Peony I made new flower buds.

From the paper East Plaza ( Courtship Lane ) I cutted a tiny house... She's so cute!
3 Littles flowers cutted in the lace 4

*Enjoy Journey*( In the Mood )

This is my favorite project of the month. I started on the reverse of wooden canvas.
On the background, I stuck a piece of  side B Mellow paper. I used only the center of it.
Then I stamped before gluing pieces of Quilted Page Panel firstly painted with white gesso and partially embossed with Pink Dust embossing powder.
Thereafter, begins the decoration of the canvas.

Several layers ... Starting with the title, Journey is embossed with Ivory embossing powder.
Below the title, a Royal Monarch embossed with two colors : Oatmeal and Pink Dust.
In these two embossing powder we find the same gold shining. Really pretty colors!

I used Lace 10 as a tiny flowers everywhere on my layout. I just added a small bead in the center.
I also used Gold Nugget and Mauve seedlings to add a bling bling style...

The Moody Florals Flowers ... are'nt they lovely?! I used only this flowers everywhere on my layout, like a flowered branch through my deco.

*It's The Little Moments ... *
( In The Mood )

Initially I did'nt want to make this project a canvas, but I had difficulty with the large untouched space. So I decided to cut the top of my paper ( In The Mood, Flirty ) and stick it on a canvas. The two parts are separated by a piece of  white Lace !0.

I really like using quotes on my canvas and the Printed Chipboards of
 the Remnants collection are perfect for that.

A small frame from the Ironworks Accents simply painted. Inside, a piece of book paper embossed with Ginger embossing powder and Remnants Collage Stamp.On my flowers, Spring Lilies and Garden Blooms I added Glass seedlings, like little drops of water.

Firstly embossed in Pixie Dust, I decided to emboss this vintage label with Baby pink embossing powder... I don't know what I did for finish with a red side ... but I find it very pretty! LOL

A close up of Mauve seedling and Tranquil Rose & lilies flowers.

April Layouts by Yuko

Hello!Frisends!I would like to introduce three new layouts today.

I used all different collections.

【valentine】

　It's quite a season but ...

Pictures of when I made a cupcake with my daughter at Valentine's Day

I thought that I used it all the time.

This paper (home supun collection) is really cute! ! !

The title is a favorite favorite BFS embossed powder ginger.

At first it is a brownish dark colored powder.

When turning on the heater, it turns into a beautiful gold instant.

I love this change and I often demonstrate in the class.

This is a part of the 12-inch size chipboard sheet of the same collection.

Originally the surroundings were yellow but it will float slightly in color

I cut around with scissors.

As this 12-inch chip board comes out for each collection

It is very easy to use!

This is a picture at a rape-blossom field.

The name of my daughter is associated with a rape blossom.

This cool parent color used for the title!

It is an embossed powder IRIDESCENT GREY.

It is not black, dark gray. Moreover, it entered lame.

It seems quite easy to use !

I also textured the background paper with modeling paste.

This stamp is also cool!

I stamped three places, but do you understand?

It matches too much with the pattern and how far it was originally printed

I do not know where I stamped!

This chip board is embossed with gold

Modeling paste with fingers at random.I colored after drying.

Whether the atmosphere will come out just by putting various colors

I feel like rust.

Honeycomb chipboard used for layout

I used it as an embellishment

because the one pulled out was also hexagonal and cute.

I put liquid pearl in the center. Looks like Bolt?

My daughter entered elementary school this year!

It is a picture of Japanese traditions, cherry blossoms and school bags.

The middle race chipboard is

I processed it with IVOLY embossed powder.

I made it ivory because it was too floating in white.It is a nice color !

I imagined cherry blossom petals in the background

I made a pattern with modeling paste.
