Vintage Christmas with Video Tutorial by Marilyn Rivera

Hello everyone!  Marilyn here with you today sharing two projects and a video tutorial using the new collection Vintage Christmas.  I had a lot of fun playing with the new Blue Fern products glitter, embossing powder and mist.

For my first project, I chose the Sparkle Wreath and the Word Ornaments chipboards that I gave a coat of gesso and then I misted with the new Imagine Ink- Cotton Candy, you will see all my creative process in the video tutorial.

I used the Vintage Christmas-Noel paper and I loved the back side that has gold and red color tones that mix perfect with the mist, glitters and embossing powders.

Supplies list:
Vintage Christmas-Noel
 Imagine Ink-Cotton Candy
Imagine Ink- Glitters- Phoenix, Pyrite
 Sparkle Wreath, Word Ornaments-chipboards
Stamp- Textures 1


Now enjoy the video tutorial!!







"A Moment in Time"

 My second project is inspired in the beautiful November sketch designed by Michele Singh.

I selected The Magical and Deck the Halls papers to make this page about my nieces with the beautiful French Ironwork and for my title the "A Moment in Time" chipboard. I embossed both chipboards with the Petal- embossing powder that has glitter and create a nice effect on the chippies. 

I placed the French Ironwork chipboard behind my photos.

After I embossed my title I distressed the edges with a pen marker. 

I punched the paper and draped one of the paper to create a design inspired in the sketch.

Supplies list:
Vintage Christmas: Magical and Deck the Halls papers
French Ironwork chipboard, A Moment in Time Chipboard
Imagine Ink- Embossing Powder- Petal

Thanks for stopping by...Until next time!
Love,

Love Story with Angelica

Hello friends! I'm happy to be here today to share three layouts I created using the beautiful new collection, Love Story. This is collection is so pretty and versatile. Some of the papers have vibrant bold colors and others are more subtle. Good for those shabby pages!

My first layout is based on the February Sketch. I used the lightest paper, The Grand Ball, for the base of my page and the Calling Card paper. I did some masking and used the little stars on the Forever Stamp for some texture.

I painted the Boston Lattice, Love, and Heart Set with heavy gesso. For the negative part of the heart I stamped with the Texture Stamp 1 when the gesso was still wet. It left a nice impression of the honeycombs. Once all the pieces were dry I did some misting for some color.

 

For my second page I want to use a whole different color combo from the sketch page. The reds and greens in the True Harmony paper is gorgeous.  I also used the Twenty One paper for layering. I painted the Brick Panel chippy with gesso and stucco paste. Then rubbed some ink on the raised texture.

 For the Cherish chippy I just painted it red and added glitter so it can pop from the page.

Finally, for my third page I've been waiting for the perfect time to use the Brown Eyed Girl Chippy.

The colors that I had in mind worked just right with the Sweet Song, Concerto, and Calling Card papers. I cut a bit off the end of the Beaded Strings chippy.

 

Thank you for visiting! I hope that I've inspired you!

February projects by Ulrika Blomfelt

Hello! I´m so happy to share some new projects created with the new collection called Love Story. Valentines day is in just a week and I want to give cards for my loved ones. But before I show you the cards I created I have a layout to show you all!

I have a sweet spot for black when I create. The new collection has lovely red colors but also some black papers. When you create with the black ones you can add any color of your choice just like I did here. 

I used the Mesh bits with my flowers.

I also used all of the new gorgeous stamp sets. I mainly used them for texture and contrasts on my layout. You get a really cool effect!

This page is created after the February sketch. Hope you will join us!
I used Ombre Dreams and both Arrow words and the lovely Spring Branch.

I used a black pen to make my leaves more visable.

I actually cut my branch in to three pieces.

And now over to my Love cards! Have you noticed how pretty the label strips are on the papers? I hate to see lovely supplies go to waste so I braided the strips and made a cute background.
It was a bit difficult to take photos so that the layered black hearts are properly visible. Sorry for that.

My next card is in a bit more romantic style. I used the Frilly Hearts here also but I coverd it with a paper and made sure that the words fitted my Arrow Sweet Word chipboard. This is a fun and playful way to mix your title!

Thank you for looking at my work! Hugs from Ulrika!
