April projects by Tartine Peluche

Hello everybody! 
Today I come back to present my layouts of month. 
Each of it is created from the new collection SPRING PARADE.

For beginning, here is my first layout:

- DREAM HAVE NO LIMITS -

I used the B side of the paper "Remembrance".
I worked a lot on my background with stencils and different mediums.



 

I used the beautiful chipboard " Wild flourish bundle ".
To start I put gesso and then embossed with the new color coordinated to the collection 
Spring parade: PINK DUST, a beautiful pale pink with golden glitter.

 

A little closer, you can see all the softness of the color, I really love it.
In this picture we can also see that I embossed with " Making plan stamp" a few places with PINK DUST embossing powder.

 

I chose to use the flowers of the collection HARVEST LILLIE.
To give them a little punch more I painted the petals with golden paint.

- WONDER -

 For my second layout I used Susie's Garden, Spring Petite and June paper of SPRING PARADE.
First to make my background I used the paper "June" That I worked with paint and ink.
With the other two papers I cut  some flowers to decorate my photo.

 

The main color of my layout is given by LAVENDER EGGS embossing powder which I used  for the 
Whimsy flourishes chipboard and some die cut of leaf stamped.

 

For my Title, I embossed with Lavender eggs embossing powder. but as I did not like the result with the l
eaf of the same color I painted it with a white 3D paint.The final result leaves some glitter on the title.
My Flowers are from the new collection CHESTERVILLE, Chesterville Florals.

 

 l

I cut on the paper " Small Spring" on the small picture of paper "Sunday Best" the flowers that are on the  right of my photo.

 

 And on the Susie's Garden paper I cut the flowers drawn in the top of the paper ...

------------------------------------


This one is my fav of month.
I wanted a page without a picture but with a thought.
I knew I was going to do a layout like this, I wanted to give a thematic : Wings, Fly, Fall,  Get up ... Since the layout starts from above and falls down, held by a thread, 
So I chose the quote : What if I fall ...

Unlike my other two pages I did not work a background in 3D texture, but rather in effect of color contrast ...
And I must confess that it was difficult to take pictures. You will see on zoom that the page is much paler than the whole picture. This creation is very gentle in reality. Sorry for not having succeeded better take a picture.

- WHAT IF I FALL -

I chose the paper "Marketplace" of Spring parade collection. I think this is the most beautiful in 
the collection, softness color and a subtile pattern of lace.

 

For the chipboard title, " Story" I embossed it in white then I embossed the half in lavander.
 I used imaginie ink SNOW embossing powder and LAVANDER EGGS .

 l


 

I chose " Late Winter Lilies " for this project. I think I could not find better.
Have you see the little bottle of pearls? I find it too cute ...

 

You will see on the next two photos that I cut the Chipboard " Shabby Layered Frame " in two, after altering it.
I paint them in gold, then I put cracked varnish and I added white paint for the part of bottom. 
Then for the pattern above, I did the reverse, gold on white.

Spring Parade and Chesterville Inspiration by Kris Berc

Hi, Blue Fern Studios friends and fans! It's Kris here to share my April layouts with you.

Cousins are Friends for Life

For my first layout, I chose chose two papers from the Spring Parade collection.  To treat the background, I flicked 5 different colors of spray, letting each color dry before adding the next.  I then added some texture paste through a stencil, and when dry, I added some contrast using black ink with the Serendipity Medley stamp.


I used the larger of the two hearts from the Frilly Hearts chipboard set to ground my photo.  It's embossed with Antique Gold embossing powder.


The title piece is embossed with the new Pink Dust powder.  It's such a pretty color!


I dabbed the flowers with a bit of gesso to blend everything together.


Below you can see a closeup of the background details.

Everyday Moments

Here's another layout made with Spring Parade paper! I treated this one with 4 colors of spray and modeling paste through a stencil.  When dry, I added contrast with black ink and one of the Coarse Fabrics stamps.  Then I decided to randomly stamp the Forever stamp all over the page, sometimes horizontal and sometimes vertical.  I like the effect!


The title chipboard piece, Everyday Moments, is treated with two layers of Ebony embossing powder.


Oh this Beaded Flourish chipboard piece is really beautiful!  I chose the Icicle embossing powder for it.  It's a lovely color for such a lovely piece.


I also embossed some Turkish Bits chipboard pieces in Icicle powder.


All flowers were treated with dabs of gesso :)

Dazzling

My last layout for today features awesome paper and chipboard from the Chesterville collection.  Oh how I love this paper!  I decided to make a girly, yet funky, page with it.  I treated the background with four colors of spray, a layer of modeling paste through a stencil, and some random stamping with a stamp from the Forever stamp set.


That cool abstract chipboard piece behind the photo is called Chesterville Doodle.  I embossed it with 14 Karat embossing powder.



This time I treated the flowers with a few drops of white spray.


Since I was going for a girly yet funky, grungy look, I added some lace and some burlap between the paper layers.


The Dazzling title piece from the Brilliant, Amazing, Dazzling chipboard set was treated with 2 layers of Ebony embossing powder.

March projects by Wendy Scholten

Hello everyone,
Today is my turn on the Blue Fern Studios Blog with my march projects.
I made 3 layouts, one with the chesterville collection and two with the new Spring Parade collection.

So let's start with the one from the Chesterville Collection called:

"Adorable"

I just love this picture of our little girl, she was only 10 months here.
I made this layout with the Whitford papers, i used the backside for my background and a piece from the front of the paper to place behind my photo.
 Don't you just love those papers, you can use them for every subject.
I embossed the chipboard pieces Textured Wildflowers, Memory Frames, one of the bohemian flowers and the word Adorable with the: iris, vintage gold and sand&sea embossing powders.
 To give the background a bit more texture i used the Essential Textures Stamp, that's all it really needed.
 I also used a lot of the gorgeous flowers : Heartland Blossoms, Courtship roses and the Dark Tropic Lilies
 I used a few things from my own stash: baubles, lace, berries, small beads in different colors and just a little bit of paint.

This is such a beautiful, bright paper collection that  really feels like spring, although you can use it for anything!

This one i called:

"Dazzling"

For this one i used the June paper as my background, and a stencil with some moddeling paste and oil pastels to color the background. Behind my photo i used a piece of the Susie's garden paper, i also fussy cutted a lot of flowers from that paper.
 First i embossed the Janie's Fram Chipboard piece with the Lilac and the new Lavender Egg's embossing powders,
 I placed the frame and the fussy cut flowers behind my photo frame and decided i wanted to turn the picture a bit to the side to give it a different effect.
 i placed some rhinestones in and around my frame to give it a bit of sparkle.
  The title Dazzling i embossed with the lavender Egg's and Fern Embossing powders to let it stand out a bit more.
 i used a few little flowers, lace, a sticker and rhinestones from my own stash tot complete this layout.
