December Inspiration By Debbie

Hi everyone!  Debbie here with you today to share my last projects for Blue Fern Studios.   I've enjoyed the last year and a half designing for Blue Fern Studios.  I want to thank Leslie and Valerie for the opportunity given to me to work with all of the amazingly beautiful products.   My final 3 projects include both of the Vintage Christmas collections.

I went in a different direction for my first project and decided to create a Christmas Canvas, a gift for my sister.  I used a mixture of the both of the Vintage Christmas paper collections.

 I worked with an 8x8 canvas, which I covered with the Let It Snow (side B) paper from
Vintage Christmas 2.  Lots of paper layering from both collections and of course chipboard and flowers! Some masking on the background as well as some micro beads.

Under my layering I used the Grand Ornament chipboard which I cut in half and embossed with some Snow and Oatmeal embossing powders.  Lots of gorgeous Blue Fern flowers  including Attic Charm Glitter Roses, Harvest Lilies, and Soft Blossoms.

At the top of the canvas is the upper portion of the Grand Ornament chipboard.

On each side of the canvas I placed the Frosty Flake chipboard which I embossed with Snow embossing powder.

My next project features both of the Vintage Christmas paper collections.

Love this picture of my sweet dog, Zoey.  She loves to lay on the couch next to the Christmas tree,  I used Twas The Night paper from Vintage Christmas 2 for my background.  Lots of layering and fussy cutting using Holiday Cards and Jolly from Vintage Christmas 2 and Wonderland from Vintage Christmas.

Here's a close up of the beautiful Blue Fern flowers, Christmas Blooms, Soft Blossoms and Attic Charm Roses.

Here I used the Dream Catcher chipboard, embossed with Snow.

To the left of the photo I placed a past of the Leafy Bough chipboard which I embossed with Verdant and Sea Mist embossing powders.  The title was embossed with a mixture of Poinsettia and Sea Mist.  I added some random stamping with the Forever stamp and added Sea Mist embossing powders.

My final layout features papers from Vintage Christmas 2.

Lots of layering under the photo using the Holiday Cards paper. Flowers include Attic Charm Glitter Roses, Christmas Blooms and Soft Blossoms.

On both sides of the photo I used the Floral Lattice Bits chipboard embossed with a mixture of Antique Gold and Golden Bricks.

Beneath the photo is a Tree Toy chipboard piece embossed with Golden Bricks along with some Fools Gold and Fire Engine Glitter.
