September inspiration by Vera Shelemekh

Hello Blue Fern Studios Fans! Vera Shelemekh is here with amazing Amber and Apricot inspiration. I'm in a flourish mood this month so all of my projects are full of wonderful Apricot flowers.

The first layout is dedicated to a bicycle ride. This photo was taken specially for the russian Scrapbooker of the year contest last summer (I never ride a bike with a newspaper in my hands in normal life).

This piece of printed chipboard inspired my to create this layout.

 

I framed the photo into small Krystal's frame covered with my favourite icicle embossing powder. In the layers of flowers you will also find beautiful Fading blooms chipboards covered with baby pink and avocado embossing powders.

 The layout is decorated with fussy cut flowers from the Amber and Apricot Tweet meloody and the Flora papers.

  I also added some elements from Lace 4.

The second layout is about my little son. He has got a funny hat and looks like a Bee man in it )

I've used Amber & Apricot - Joyful as background.

With a lot of yellow and brown flowers it makes Autumn so soft and warm. The composition consists of  Amber & Apricot printed chipboards, fussy cut roses from Yesteryear paper...

The is also some Honey bits stamping on background.

 and I added here and there bees stamped with Amber accents.

I love the look of Mustard Seedlings here. Just like drops of honey )

August inspiration an a video by Annie Samson

Hi Blue Fern Studios fan,

I am verry excited to share my 2 layouts made from the brand new collection Amber & Apricot.

Sweet

For my first layout, I wanted to create a deep and romantic layout.

 I choose the back side of the Chapiters paper to create my layout.

I add some modeling past trough two differents stencils and add 2 tones of brown and 2 tones of yellow ink to create my focal point.

I embosed the Krystal's frame large with Copper embossing powder and the Krystal's frame small with Honey embossing powder

Than I use pieces from Faded Bloom and Yesteryear papers to create dimention.

I use the Bits of honey stamp kit to add texture to my background.

I use some chipbaord of the coordinated chipboard to embellish my layout.

And I use the Apricot bloom,  Chestervill bloom and Garden life flowers to decorate my layout.

For the final touch, I use the Paprika and Mustard seedling un top of my ornements.

For my second layout, I wanteed to create a more delicate layout.
I choose the paper Friendship and add a little bit of peach ink on my backgroud.
I cut my Fading bloom chipbord in two pieces and embosse it with Coral embossing powder.
I also use pieces of Shabby brick bites embossed with the Honey embossing powder.
I have also use the Honey embossing powder for my title; Sweet as honey.
I add some coordinated chipboard under my picture.
And finaly I have used flowers from Aprico bloom and Chesterville floral to decorate my layout.
