"Cherish' layout and video tutorial

Hello friends!

It is the month of June now and the summer is upon us! I'm looking forward to spending some time with the kiddos this month as school is out. What about you?

Today I have a video tutorial for Blue Fern Studios to share with you, using their new fabulous collection Deja Vu as well as their gorgeous chippies.

Here is the project:

I've focused a lot more on chipboard alteration for this project rather than creating my background, simply because the products are just so pretty!

Some close-ups:

My title piece "Cherish". I'm loving black gesso and how it makes the chipboard pops!

The butterfly dangle from "Deja Vu Dangles". Such a sweet little piece to work with. 

Vintage Label chipboard which I had fun stamping with the new Blue Fern stamp.

And here is the video of how I put the whole thing together:

Thank you Patter and Marie-Josée for your beautiful, and very different layouts using this awesome new collection.  No matter what your style, you will love these elegant designs!

Bente's April projects.

Hi it's me Bente!

I used the new Deja Vu papers for two of my projects. I also used matching chipboards. 

It is such a pretty collection!

First I made an off the page project. 

Such an easy project but it still has the 'cute' effect .-)

The cute little shadowbox was a leftover from some used up scrapsupplies.

I painted the box with diluted gesso and added small areas of green/pink paint.

I painted the branch and added a couple of mini roses to it. I glued pictures and some journalling cards to the back and proceeded to decorate the box with flowers etc. Fun!!

My second project is a layout, which is what I normally make.

I used several of the gorgeous papers from the 'Deja Vu' collection, Nowadays I really like working with the colour purple.(As opposed to when I first started scrapping when I found it such a 

hard colour to work with). I just love the purple/yellow combo here.

To emphasize the purple tone of the papers I decided to paint my chipboards purple as well. 

I used part of the large chickenwirepurple panel and Deja Vu dangles.

I used most of the papers in the collection and had so much fun trying out what papers to mix and match. I distressed and layered some of the journalling cards in the center as a mat for my photo.

I also coloured some of the flowers with paint to make them match more. As most of my stuff is in boxes at the moment due to the move I am really challenged to find enough other supplies to complement what I have. That's why I had to paint my flowers ;-)
If you look closely you might even notice I used some of the new Deja Vu stamps. ;-)

Finally I have a page for you that I made a little while ago, -actually at the end of last month. 

It was done for the Blue Fern Studios monthly sketch challenge. 

First you have the sketch. If you hurry you can still make it by the 30th of April.

Look HERE.

And below is the page that I made with inspiration from the above sketch. 

Okay, that's all for now! 

Thank you for checking out Blue Fern Studios and my projects.

See you next month!

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! :)
