Hello from Blue Fern

BFS Will Live ON!

It's Official! I have sold Blue Fern and am very excited for the new owners and the possibilities that await them! It has been sold to 3 friends in Arizona and they are at BFS right now loading all the u-haul trucks to transport tons of product across the country.

The new owners will be creating a post shortly introducing themselves. I am so excited for them.

Thank you all for your support of Blue Fern for the past 7 years! I can't tell you enough how much I appreciate each of you! And now I am signing off as Chief of Blue Fern!

September inspirations by Jennifer Jacques

Hello Blue Fern Studios fanatics!

Here are 3 layouts, all made with the brand new HAPPY ACCIDENT 2!!!

As Happy accident was my all-time favorite from BFS,

 I was thrilled to work HA2 as part of this design team.

So here is my first one 

I used "Faux" and "Suave" as my background paper.

Above, the title was embossed with Black Sand embossing powder and below, 

you  can see the new Criss Cross chippies who are embossed also but

 with Oatmeal embossing powder.

I've made some random stamping with the music sheet from the stamp set "For the birds".

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

My second layout was a beachy theme creation.

The "Smarty" paper (b-side) is used as my background on this one.

 Use some ephemeras here and there also to complete my focal point.
My focal point is based on the Swirls and Twirls chippies
and were embossed with 2 colors:
Sea mist and Breeze.

Some Wanderlust lilies around my picture...

Some  stamping with Swiss dots and also with Halftone stamps.

Below: Waderlust and Ephemeras again :)
