Altered Can and Jar - Vicky Alberto

I decided to have some fun altering a tomato can and a plastic mayonnaise jar...

I just can't seem to get enough of Blue Fern's Homespun and Heartland collections, so I mixed them together! 

On the tomato can, I added an adhesive butterfly from the Remnants collection, Tattered walls ephemera and Blue Fern flowers too. Nothing from my stash on here... this is ALL gorgeous Blue Fern product.

On the mayonnaise jar, Homespun adhesive shapes, Tattered walls ephemera, Blue Fern flowers, ribbon and flourish heart chipboard were added... again nothing from my stash on this project either!

On the heart chipboard I inked in dark pink and then randomly glued some Blue Fern pink embossing powder on top, for a thick shabby look. Well... once again thanks for stopping by to take a peek at my projects!

March Inspirations by Catherine Giguère

Hello Blue Fern Studios Fans! Here's my turn to share my March projects with you. This month, I had the chance to work with the brand new Spring Parade collection. I did two layouts with it. I love the pastel colors of it and I hope you'll like it too!

'Sparkles'

For this layout, I used 'Hushed' paper from the BFS Tranquility collection. I did a very textured background with stencil, modeling paste, BFS Serendipity Stamp, microbeads, beads and flakes.

I embossed my BFS chipboards 'Folkart Frame' and 'Classic Ornaments' with the BFS embossing powder 'Garnet'. I glued the 'Folkart Frame' on my picture and I cuted in halfs the 'Classic Ornaments' and put them under my picture to make dimension.

I embossed my title 'Sparkles' with BFS 'Nutmeg' embossing powder.

For my second layout, I used the paper 'Sunday Best' from the new BFS Spring Parade collection. I used modeling paste, stencil, yellow ink (it's my favorite color on aqua) and the BFS stamps 'Sentiments of love', 'Vintage Phrases' and 'Tattered Newsprint' to do my background. 

I embossed the BFS chipboards 'Swirly Circle' and 'Ginger Poppies' with BFS 'Oatmeal' embossing powder. 

I cut my chipboards 'Ginger Poppies' and put the pieces under my BFS flowers.

I embossed my title 'Capture the Moment' with BFS embossing powder 'Nutmeg' to make it stand out.

For my last layout this month, I used the paper 'Remembrance' from the Spring Parade collection. I love the softness of this pink!

I used modeling paste, stencil, pink and coral inks and BFS stamp 'Garden Frolic' to do my background. 

I embossed the BFS chipboards 'Garden Lattice Bits' and 'Rose Shield' with 'Pink Dust' BFS embossing powder. 

I embossed my title 'Magnifique' from the BFS chipboard kit 'French Adjectives 1' with the BFS 'Morning Sun' embossing powder. Then, I add many BFS flowers.
