April Projects with Einat Kessler

Hey crafty friends!

Einat Kessler here with two fun and easy projects.

I really love BFS products so I keep every little scrap that I have. I don't throw away any of my paper pieces or chipboard leftovers. Today i want to show you that you can create an amazing layout using those scraps!

I started with a 12x12 paper for my background. This is the only full size piece of paper in this layout. Then I started adding scraps of papers I cut from other BFS papers I had as well as adding a piece of chipboard i used on my last layout. I also added some other embellishments and the title.

BFS products used:
Papers: Ombre Dreams - Charlotte's Dream
             Sanctuary - Calling Cards
Chipboard: Marrakesh Panel

                   Dare to Dream

For my second project I made a card using some more scraps of paper and chipboard. I created a layered collage from pieces of paper and chipboard and embellished it with some flowers and ribbon. The great things about BFS papers is that they're double sided so there are twice as many color and pattern to use in whatever project you're creating!

BFS products used: 

Papers: Sanctuary - Calling Cards

Chipboard: Marrakesh Panel

I hope I've inspired you to use your BFS supplies and scraps!

Have fun creating!

April Projects by Angelica Franssen

Hello all! Today I'm here to share my April project with you. I made three layouts using the gorgeous new collection Deja Vu. The papers are designed beautifully and the colors are so sweet! I really love the soft tones of the purple, yellows, and green.

My first layout is based on April's sketch. I used the Friperies paper as  my background and used Tresors as my accents layers. The title "memories" is from the Petites Cartes papers.

For the chipboard pieces  I used Boston Lattice and Mesh Bits. I first painted with gesso and sprinkled lightly some cleat UTEE. Heated until the UTEE is melted then sprayed with mist.

 I also used on of the new pieces that coordinate with the Deja Vu Collection. This one here is a piece from the Deja Vu Dangle set.

For this page I used the La Plume paper as my background. Then tearing and layering on top I used the Un Voyage A Paris paper. I took a piece of the Luminaires paper to run down my page.

I used gesso and  paint on the Chelsea Vines. Then sprinkles some colored glitter glass on the tip of the leaves.

 For the title I used the word Delight from the Delight Set.

 This lovely lamp post is also new to coordinate with the Deja Vu Collection. This one is called Luminaires. It comes in a set of two and I used the larger on a previous layout I made.

The soft green color in the papers is one of my favorite shades of green. I used the Atelier paper as my background then layered  Tresors. I fussy cut some images from the Friperies and Petites Cartes papers.

This is another piece from the Deja Vu Dangle Set. I painted with gesso, misted, and lightly dabbed some distress glitter to finish the piece.

 Here I used the Small Roman Clock. I used the same dressing as above.

Thank you for taking the time! I hope I've inspire you to get the Deja Vu collection. It's one that you should have in your stash! :)

"Love This"

My first share this month for Blue Fern Studios is another beach layout.

I used the Sanctuary collection for the background and stamped it with the new textured stamps. Then I built the layout with chipboard and flowers.

I framed the photo with the Circle vine chipboard and used a couple of mini flourishes to add more swirls around the photo.

Then I added the "Love this" arrow word title.

All chipboard was painted with Antique Gold brown spray ink.

"Shadow Box Frame"

My second project this month is a shadow box frame which I covered with the Correspondence paper from the Sanctuary collection.

I framed the photo in the notebook frame, which was inked with brown acrylic ink.

The frame was embellished with flowers and the Seasonal Wildflower chipboard pieces. I also inked them in brown and then glued golden micro-beads on the flowers.

Thank you for visiting the Blue Fern Studios blog.

A Love Story - Mixed Media Layout Tutorial

Hello Blue Fern Studios fans!

I'm a little late for my share this month but here it is finally! Using the gorgeous Love Story collection, stamps and BFS' intricately designed chipboards, I created the following layout for a girlfriend who got married recently. 

Some closeups of the project:

The Rose Medley and Layering Stems chipboards which I have altered.

Another piece from the Layering Stems set which is just perfect for the flowers I like to use on my projects.

Creating lots of texture on the Rose Medley.

Here is the start to finish video of how I put this layout together. I hope you enjoy what I have to share today!

Deja Vu Layouts!

We have a couple of gorgeous layouts to share with you today.  We are so excited
to be able to feature layouts using our brand new Deja Vu paper collection,
chipboard pieces, and some of our new stamps.  Be prepared to be amazed!

Angelica Franssen has combined three papers from the Deja Vu collection (Petites Cartes, Lustre, and Tresors) that so elegantly show off the soft purple in this line.   Angelica also used the Luminaries and Deja Vu Border chipboard pieces which were created to coordinate perfectly with this paper collection.

Keren Tamir chose the lovely Friperies paper for this extra sweet layout.  She used the Blue Fern Butterfly Kisses title, and framed the photo with our Butterfly Frame - Square.  The stamped images in the background are from the Deja Vu Stamp Set.

Keep checking back as we reveal more layouts from our Creative Team showing you how they are using products from the Deja Vu Collection.
