Serendipity Update

Hello everyone!  As promised, we are here today to introduce our new Serendipity paper collection (created by Michele Singh) and the chipboard, stamps, embossing powder and glitter that coordinate with the paper.

First up, we have the paper.  You are going to love the gorgeous colors and details!  

The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines serendipity as: luck that takes the form of
finding valuable or pleasant things that are not looked for.  

As you journey through this 10 sheet collection, you are going to find a myriad of treasures, intertwined with beautiful borders, textured backgrounds, dainty vintage flowers, and sweet songbirds.

Next up are the chipboard pieces we have created to coordinate with this collection.  We thought the titles of each page of this collection were so wonderful, that we created chipboard titles, too!

For all your stamping needs, we have three sets of stamps to coordinate with this collection.

We hope you have enjoyed seeing all the creative ways our Design Team has been using our new Embossing Powders.  We have three new colors that will be beautiful with the Serendipity collection.

Lastly, we have some gorgeous new colors of glitter to add some sparkle to your projects.

 Thanks for stopping by today.  We hope you enjoyed a look at our new Serendipity collection and everything that goes with it!

Two more layouts by Wilma with the beautiful Autumn Anthology collection .

                            For my first layout we have to go back in time ........ 40 years !
                             I used the original picture of young me, I become vintage :)
                     The background paper is one of the Autumn Anthology collection, Gazebo
                           To create more interest I use the circuitry chipboard as my mask.
                                   I had to spray it anyway with gesso for another layout.
                  So now I had a white chipboard piece and textured background at the same time.
                                                                             

                                           Behind the picture I used the Wild Flourish frame .
                                               And one bird from the Little Birds set.
              All I did was adding some thin gelmedium to keep the original natural chipboard color.

I cut a few paper flowers from another paper out of the collection.

Glued it behind my flower.

My next layout , also made with the Autumn Anthology collection.

The picture is about 25 years old, bad quality .

But thats what we had than....and we should just use them on our layouts.

For the background paper I used the Parfumerie paper.

I toned down with gesso, leaving out some of the beautiful background pattern.

I pushed  a embossingfolder in the wet gesso to get the checkered texture.

Than I colored the background with 3 of the new mists:

Persimmon , Leaf and Jingle bells .

The chipboard ( checker bits ) was inked up with a chipboard kind of color .

Than I embossed here and there with one of the new embossingpowders : petal

To tone down,  again some mixed media ink.

New are the glitters and embossingpowders at Blue fern Studios.

Just when I was finishing this layout my package arrived !

So I added some on my flower.

A little glitter never hurts :)

I used the Pyrite , a beautiful goldtone.

Thank you for visiting the Blue Fern Studios blog.

Have a great week
