Bente's first post for Blue Fern Studios.

Hi there!...*waving from Sweden*.
My name is Bente and some of you may have seen my creations around the internet for a few years now. I started scrapping about six years ago and never stopped to look back. I've tried many other creative outlets like knitting, sewing and embroidering, but scrapbooking is by far my favourite.
I am a native of Norway although I have lived more than half my life away from there. I have had my permanent address in the south of Sweden for many years, but have spent a few years in exciting places like Chile, Mexico and the UK. Loved that!
My three beautiful daughters are my main inspiration and we also have a cute but spoilt kitty.
I am so happy to be on the 2015 creative team here at Blue Fern Studios!
To see more of my work please visit me here:

Now for my first creations here on the blog:


Here I used the Roman Clock set and the Arrow Words set. 
To add colour to the pieces and create a coherent look I coloured the pieces with an ink chalker.


I love the feminine look created by lifting and layering a piece of the pretty Montage paper.


My next page features the youngest members of the family. 
-My DD and Lady, the royal princess of our house :-)


Again I used the beautifully decorated papers from the Montage collection.
The large frame is called Shabby Layered Frame.
In the corners you can see some Tattered Diamond bits.


I love these pictures that I took a while back. 
I love the look of the enamel dots on the black painted frame.




 Finally to round off this post I created a couple of cards using the lovely Sanctuary collection.


I used the pretty Roman Clock set and the Arrow words  here as well.

On this card is also a small piece from the Ironwork Accents set.
The Tattered Diamond bits were painted inked and stamped with a musical note pattern.


Products used: Papers from the Montage collection and the Sanctuary collection, Roman Clock set, Arrow Words set, Shabby Layered frame, Tattered Diamond bits, Ironwork Accents.

I hope you liked my first creations as a DT member for Blue Fern Studios.
Thanks for looking!

Today We Feature YOU!

We've been looking around the Internet for layouts and other projects using our products.  You continue to amaze us with the creative ways in which you alter and use our chipboard, and we love to see you create on our paper!  Take a look at what we have found:


Eila Sandburg of Sweden has used several pieces of Blue Fern chipboard 
to create a garden feel for this sweet layout.




This gorgeous layout by 2014 Creative Team member, Maja Stokk, brings together Blue Fern chipboard and paper from our Sanctuary Collection.




We found this layout by Cat444 in an online gallery.  Love the way she used Blue Fern chipboard behind the photo collage layer.  It shows that you don't always have to alter the chipboard.  It's beautiful bare!



Paper from our Sanctuary Collection is the perfect background for this shabby chic, romantic layout that Karen created.



Kimberly Heard has also used paper from the Sanctuary Collection to create this layout featuring a photo of herself and a friend.   The circle frame is a perfect way to frame this photo!


Thanks ladies for making us look so good and inspiring our readers!

First DT projects by Zanka

Hello!
It's my turn to welcome you on BFS blog for the first time! My name is Zaneta Glowa aka Zanka. I'm truly happy to cooperate with BFS and I'm looking forward to this new scrappy adventure!
I'm coming from Poland but nowadays I live in Sweden, I moved here more than 10 years ago. 
I discovered scrapbooking in 2010, an amazing world has opened its door to me and took me by the storm. 
At work I’m all fact and figures but I'm happy to take an escape to creativity when I have some spare time. I can slow down after a busy day, think through the things that happened -or sometimes just forget everything and make some mess ;)
I’m trying to explore different expressions and styles, although I’m most often staying within a romantic, feminine stream. I love to add a mixed media touch to my works. My key discoveries during my journey so far have been: stamps, gesso and Twinkling H2Os, all of these still remaining the first choice in my toolbox.
You are warmly welcome to visit my blog at 
www.mysweedplace.blogspot.com

So this is me:







For my first layout I used Sanctuary collection, I've fallen in love with the rose images!

Chipboards : Quatrefoil panel, Tattered diamond bits.
When you get your chipboard panels, most of them are still including the cut bits which you normally pop out. I discovered that those loose bits are perfect as embellishments themselves! I decorated mine with gesso, ink, stamps and  covered them with glossy accents.

For the second layout I picked Ombre papers.
Chipboards: Hello Summer, Ginger Poppies



The chipboards are gently treated with gesso and watercolours, the same which I also used in the background.

My third layout was already presented with the sketch reveal. Once again, I used the Sanctuary collection.
Chipboards: Captured Words, Graduated Squares, Spring Branch 





Here's probably where I've spend most time on altering the chipboards. 

For the title, I only added some white accents, otherwise I let the elegant,  original colour of the chipboard to be seen. 
On the frame, I have used texture paste and goldfinger paint. The branch is coloured with wax crayons and acrylic paint. 


That's all from me today, thank you for spending some time with me here !
