Altered Art--with Keren Tamir



Hi Everyone,
Its Keren here with two altered projects for the Blue Fern Studios blog.

For my first project I created a pair of mermaid shadow boxes by altering two 6x6  canvases. I have a step by step video tutorial below to show you how I created them.



Here is the step by step video tutorial below:



I used two 6x6 canvases and reversed them to create the shadow box effect.
I love creating these type of projects as they are perfect for displaying on a mantlepiece.


I used the Seaside Cottage collection and various embossing powders and glitters to embellish these canvases.

I used real shells and starfish as embellishments and even added some netting to make it look as if it is under the sea.

My second project this month is an altered paint brush.



I took a wide old paint brush and embellished it using many different types of chipboard pieces. 



I took a wide old paint brush and embellished it using many different types of Blue Fern Studios chipboard .




I used pieces from the following chipboard sets: Cogs and Gears, Moving Parts, Roman Clock and Wind up.
I also used one of the Tattered Butterflies as the focus and then I cut the chipboard word Heart to get the word Art. It was perfect for this piece and I still have the word "he" for another project.


The chipboard and paint brush was first covered in black gesso and then embossed with the following Blue Fern Studios embossing powders: Peacock, 14 Karat, Heavenly and Magenta.
Finally I added some touches of gold paint to fill in the areas where the embossing powders could not reach.





Thank you so much for visiting the Blue Fern Studios Blog
Have a wonderful day!!

December Inspiration & Video Tutorial by Marilyn Rivera

Hello Blue Fern fans! Today I share with you a layout that I made with the new gorgeous Vintage Christmas collection and the new Christmas chipboards. I also worked with the fabulous embossing powders and the new mist in my project.
I selected the Holiday Frame, Word Ornament, and the Holiday Vine chipboards that I gave different techniques that you can see in the video tutorial at the end of the post. This beautiful paper is "Noel"from the Vintage Christmas collection.

I used the Lucky and Fern embossing powder on my chipboards.

A first look at Vintage Christmas ~ with Sandi Clarkson

Hello, Blue Fern fans! 

Sandi Clarkson here with you today sharing my first Vintage Christmas project! 
I think I squealed a bit when I received my Design Team box the other day ... so many lovely new items! Wow! 


The Noel paper was treated with clear gesso and then super heavy gesso with a stencil. Imagine Ink in "Winter Mist" was misted and spread with water to enhance the stenciling. The "Carribean" glitter was then scattered over the background paper for lots of shine. Yes, we now have glitter! 

The chipboard pieces were all primed with gesso and then coated with the Imagine Ink in "Winter Mint" ( Snow Medley), "Leaf" (Eclectic Hearts), "Jingle Bells" (Garden Window) and "Cotton Candy" plus "Persimmon" (Wish, Wonder, Dream).  The Snow Medley piece was enhanced with "Fern" embossing powder, the Wish with "Poinsettia" embossing powder and the Eclectic Hearts with "Lucky" embossing powder. The Garden Window was misted with "Jingle Bells," then dusted with "Pyrite" glitter. 

Paper layers were cut and placed behind the Window. Flowers and bling were added as a final touch. 

Here are some close-ups:


I love Blue Fern Studios chipboard and had fun with some older pieces as well as some new ones! Having mist, embossing powder and glitter that mix and match  with the papers is wonderful! You can see that I like to do my embossing in more of a random way versus total coverage. For the Eclectic Hearts I added in some variegation with my green Gelato. In case you're wondering, the Garden Window does have Jingle Bell mist, a smidgen of inks and then is dusted with Pyrite glitter. One window shutter was cocked to reveal the paper beneath it. 



The Snow Medley piece has been cut in half and tucked into two different spots. The Winter Mint mist and the Fern embossing powder co-ordinate beautifully! Winter Mint os going to match so many of the BFS papers! 



More random embossing on the Wish piece. Again, the colors go so well together! Try Persimmon and Poinsettia together .. I think you'll like the combo. 

Well, that's my first project with Vintage Christmas! I can't wait to start another even though the weather is still hot here in Texas. Might go neutral this time instead of red and green. Hmm ...

Thanks for coming by!
