Lots of Blue Fern Studios goodness with Bente.

Hi there friends of Blue Fern Studios.

 I am so happy you came to see what I have prepared for you this time :-) Winter is now definitely upon us and what more perfect collection to use for those crisp winter photos than the beautiful Vintage Christmas.

My first page showcases a couple of older photos of my youngest daughter as I wanted to scrap pictures with snow .This year it hasn't snowed yet :-) Sorry the pictures are not great. It's pretty dark up here in the Nordic countries at the moment :-) 

I used the Holiday Vine chipboard and the title Sparkle is from the Winter Titles set.

Here are a couple of close ups:

I used the Petal embossing powder as well as the Pyrite glitter to embellish my page.

My next project is an alterd frame. It was so much fun to make.

 I painted one of the  words from the Delight set and also one of the Vintage Labels. 
The perforated arrow is from the Directions set. The paper collection is Autumn Anthology.

To top off this creation I used the beautiful Ornate Shelf as something similar to a roof.

This next layout you may recognize as it was part of this months sketch reveal  HERE.

Even here I used Vintage Christmas. The French Ironwork-chipboard behind my photos is such a stunning piece! This time I painted it gold and used one of the Blue Fern Studios Texture stamps
 to emboss it.

 I used a mixture of hnd made and bought flowers.
Of course I used the Vintage Christmas papers even for the flowers! :-)

And then my last  page for today,also with the latest collection and some more fabulous chipboard!

I used the Chain link panel ,just lightly covered in gesso and the Framed Winter Words with some added glitter. Here is a closer look at some details :

Again I used a mixture of store bought and handmade flowers using the beautiful red Deck the Halls sheet

I love the look of the chipboard panel peeking out from behind the beautiful paper :-)

That was all for today, well done if you made it all the way to the end!!

I wish you all a wonderful wek end. I knowI am really looking forward to some free time!
Thanks for looking!!

Snow Fun-with Vintage Christmas by Keren Tamir

Hello everyone,

It's Keren here with my November post for Blue Fern Studios.

As you might have seen already, Blue Fern Studios has released a brand new collection called Vintage Christmas. Its a beautiful holiday and wintery paper collection and it was perfect for scrapbooking last year's winter photos. I used it for both of these layouts.

"Snow Angel"

For this background I used the "Magical" paper from the Vintage Christmas collection.

I'm not too fond of winter as I don't like feeling cold. However my kids love playing in the soft fluffy snow. Here is my daughter making snow angels on the snow. I framed her photo with the Snowflake Frame chipboard which I simply covered in white gesso. I wanted to create the most monochromatic layout I could so I could showcase the whiteness of winter. I used flowers and cheese cloth to enhance the feel of winter, too.

<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>

"Snow Sparkles"

For this background I used the "Auld Lang Syne" paper from the Vintage Christmas collection.

I framed my daughter's photo with the Holiday Frame. I primed it with white gesso and then sprinkled it with diamond dust to give it a snowflake texture feel. Finally I used some Imagine Ink Pyrite glitter to add some golden highlights around the frame and on the background.

I used the Blue Fern Studios Persimmon, white and golden spray to add some texture and sparkle to the background.

Finally I used the "Sparkles" chipboard word from the "Winter titles" set. It was sprayed with gold ink.

Thank you so much for visiting the Blue Fern Studios Blog

Have a wonderful day!!

Magic and Wonder with Vintage Christmas by Marilyn Rivera

Hello everyone!!  

Marilyn here with you today sharing a project with the beautiful Vintage Christmas collection and the new products from Blue Fern Studios like the embossing powder, mist and the glitters.

The new Vintage Christmas collection is so beautiful, the paper and design are divine .
I selected the Auld Lang Syne paper and the Wonderland paper(base) for my page. I treated the paper with gel medium. and after dry  I used the Imagine Ink "Winter Mist"  to enhance the beautiful blue/mint color tones on the paper. It's great that we have now  the mist, glitter and embossing powder in the same paper colors.  

I gave textures with a stencil and a mix of Imagine Ink-Glitter -"Pyrite" with gel medium.  The Winter Village chipboard was enhanced with the Imagine Ink-Embossing Powder-Fern. and added some Pyrite glitter.

My title is the Framed Winter Words chipboards that I treated with the embossing powder -Fern.

Here are my kids, a memory of the 2003 Christmas.  . 

Here you can see the effect of the glitter in the chipboard and in the background.

Natural look with Vintage Christmas collection by Wilma.

                 
                    For this picture I wanted a  natural looking layout with a winter feeling.
                   I found the perfect background paper in the Vintage Christmas collection.

As you see I left a small strip on the right side. 

It is the brandname strip and I can always use them or parts of it.

The title poste is a picture I made from a very old postbox in Locarno .

They still use it!

Today I waited a few hours with this post , hoping we get some sunlight.

But nothing is happening......

This because I used the new glitter Blue Fern Studios brings out.

It is so fine and beautiful in real life.

But no sun, no glitter showing up on my pictures...

Next time :) 

The red spatters in the background are made with imagine mist .

Color Persimmon

Behind my photocluster I used the Twiggy Branch chipboard.

One of my favorites, it is so shapeable.

To give it this nature look I painted it with 3 colors acrylic paint in the brown tones .

Thats it for today, thanks for visiting the blog.

Have a great weekend!
