July inspiration by Tartine Peluche

Hi everyone!

I'm back to share with you my new layouts of month.

My first one is :

The young woman was silent ...

For this layout I have to work in layer, several paper of the collection Happy Accident,

 a few paper cut and my chipboards.

I used Fortuity paper.

First my background is very simple a little cheese cloth here and there and some stamping with Serendipity medley and Grungy grid stamp. 

In the foreground the title "Story" embossed with the embossing powder "Copper". 

Under this one a chipboard of the kit "Spring Trinkets" embossed with Snow embossing powder, I then sprinkled with brilliant Burnt Copper.

On both sides of the title, the chipboard ginger's poppies embossed with Pink Dust embossing powder. 

Which I cut in two and placed on two different layers under the photo

Under the top of the picture, we find part of the chipboard Holiday Deer 

( No one said that deer live only in winter ... ;) But I removed the snowflakes from the chipboard.

I cut the chipboard so as to keep that central part for the top of my photo 

the other two pieces of the chipboard are layered under the flowers on the right side of the photo.

I embossed them with Oatmeal embossing powder and distressed with light brown ink pad.

If we look again on the left side of the picture we find one of the kit chipboards Petite Boutique Frames.

I embossed it with the powder "Snow" then I made a crackle treatment and then I added pink ink to bring out the cracks. 

Then I glued a piece of lace to the back.

I also used two deer from the kit "winter deer" I also embossed them with Oatmeal embossing powder and distresser with light brown ink pad.

I used small pink flowers from Courtship Roses kit.

My two others layouts featuring Garden Life paper

Capture life's moments

For the first of two, I used Felicity paper.

This background is a little more sophisticated than the first.

 I started by creating my texture then I played with ink and stamps.

 I really like the attached letter writing of "Serendipity Medley"stamp.

 I used it with a black ink to create contrast.

Then with the chipboard "Shabby Brick Bits" I added a little more texture to my background. 

I embossed it with "Snow" and applied a thin layer of blue opalescent paint.

To embellish my photo, I always opt for layers of paper, thus creating depth to my creation.

Between the different layers I added here, my flowers. 

The daisy comes from the kit "Attic Charms Daisy" the roses come from the kit "Garden Blooms"

If you look on either side of my photo, I used a peony from the kit "Chesterville Blooms" that I cut in half.

As journaling for my layout I used few printed chipboards from Garden life 

and "inspiration" come from Happy Accident printed chipboard.

Have you seen the new Rose Leaves chipboards? I love them! Here I painted them in green.

In the lower right corner of my page, there is a flower, normally white from Heartland Blossoms kit ... 

A happy accident made him fall into my ink ... and became like that ... I find her pretty!

I kept the best for the end ... my butterflies! (Royal Monarchs)

First of all, I put white gesso, after I used two different inks, one green and one gold.

 Then I made some white splash with gesso.

With a piece of lace that I inked with the same ink as my background, 

I stuck to the back of my butterflies. I really like the result!

So, you know everythings ...

Blossom Story

For this layout I've not did mixed media background. 

I just played with the paper ... I cut it,  torn it, and distressed it.

I started with the paper "Flower Bed" which I drew the flowers with black pencil. 

Each of the flowers one after the other ... I spent the day ...

I've used almost all the paper in entire.

Each of the cut parts placed on different layers under my photo.

My title "story" is embossed in white and then half of the top is embossed in purple. 

I used Snow and Lavender Eggs embossing powder.

Butterflies are stamped on a paper of "Spring Parade / May Vignettes"

 I used "Bourbon Street" and "Spring Accents" stamps

The "Looped Frames" and "Quatrefoil Panel" chipboards are simply embossed in white with Snow  embossed powder.

The small piece from Quatrefoil Panel is embossed with Baby Pink embossing powder.

I also added chipboard Leafed Bough that I cut into several pieces. I painted this one in green.

I used several yellow flowers of the kit "Garden Blooms" but I removed the central 

part of the flowers to keep only the petal of the bottom.

See my close ups for all details.

April projects by Wendy Scholten

Hi Everyone,

I'm so happy to show you my projects for this month.

I created 3 layouts with 2 different collections including one with the new Happy Accident papers.

They are really stunning!

So let's start with the first one.

I used the Spring Parade for this one, i wanted to keep it simple so the picture really stands out.

I wonder from who she get's her goofiness , lol!

'Happiness'

I used the Sunday Best paper, a stencil with modeling paste and oil pastels with some water for the background. Behind my photo i used a piece of the Market place paper.

I chose the Happiness word from the Good Vibes word set, i used it with the new lavender eggs embossing powder.

And the other chipboard pieces are the Ginger Poppies, i used those with the snow embossing powder and tucked them behind my photo.

For my flower clusters i used the Chesterville Blooms, Harvest Lilies and a few of my own stash.

I used a mix of sequins to give it more color and playfulness.

"The Big Day'

For this layout i also used Spring Parade papers, the Remembrance backside. I used the paper twice, one i torn in half and place it on top of the whole paper, i tucked some lace behind it.

Behind my photo i used some moddeling paste with a baroque stencil and some sprays for the color.

I also used the tattered newsprint stamp with the vintage gold embossing powder to give my background more color.

As my chipboard title i used The Big Day from the Wedding Words set which i embossed with the vintage Gold Embossing Powder.

And to frame my photo i used the Bordeaux Layered Frame, the back i embossed with Snow Embossing Powder and the front with the Oatmeal embossing powder.

 For my flowers i used Heartland Blossoms and some of my own stash.

I also used some embellishments, stickers, a doily, glitter and some cheesecloth.

And the Grungy Grid and Vintage Phrases stamps.
