~ Hello, September with Sandi ~

Hello, hello! 
Thanks so much for coming by the blog today. 
Sandi here with you today sharing my September creations. 
It is always so exciting to go in my scrap room and play with my Blue Fern Studios projects! 
I love being a part of this team. 


"Summer Vacation, Lucy Style"

First up: I haven't done a "Lucy" page in a while, so this old photo of Lucy fishing is perfect for using my Seaside Cottage papers. I've used both sides of the Splendor paper so that I could slit the grooves between the wood panels and distress them a bit. I've only used a minimal amount of mixed media so that the beautiful images would be dominant. Just a bit of colorizing with Cotton Candy Imagine Mist and stenciling. 



To get a uniform look, all three pieces of chipboard were treated the same way. First they were primed with white gesso, then heat embossed with a combination of Ginger and Chili Powder Embossing Powder. The large lantern from the Seaside Lanterns set got a heavier dose of Chili Powder, It was simply tucked in amongst my flowers and other paper layers.  The Harvest Lilies are new to the store and they seemed to work perfectly for this layout! 


I thought the chain and lantern would complete the corner of this page and indeed, they fit beautifully and balanced the design.  


I love the chunky look of the Summer Vacation chipboard and tried to give it a bit more ombre' look with my two powders. I left sections of the chipboard less heated for an interesting texture. 


A good close-up of the dimension you can achieve with your layers, chipboard and flowers. The photo was framed with Seaside Cottage Mermaid and Calling Cards.

"Fall Memories"

My granddaughter KK loves her horses! She recently sent a few photos that I'm sure she's hoping to see on some scrapbook pages! LOL I pulled out one of my favorite collections … Autumn Anthology because I knew it would work perfectly with her blue checked shirt and her horse's coat. Because I had a wide section of blue background using the Robin paper, I was able to do some simple stenciling without covering up any pretty images. The Mercantile paper is an absolute fave of mine and I've torn it into strips. It's a busy design but the colors and images are wonderful. 


I have a lot of layers of chipboard going here and it's hard to photograph because they are semi-covered with the photo layer. But I used the Mini Ring Things as a bottom left layer and also around the edges of the page. These were inked and embossed with Ginger and given a smidgen bit of Burnt Copper Glitter for shine. The next layer, other than the paper was the Flourish Medley piece which was cut in half to lengthen it. It was embossed with Ebony Embossing Powder as well as Ginger, topped off with bits of the Burnt Copper Glitter. The Collage Frame was treated the same and is directly beneath my matted photo. 


I wanted to share just a closer view of the frame and flourish pieces. They look divine in real life! 


For flowers, I combined some of the Tranquil Blooms with our Seaside Lilies. A Calling Card serves as my title. 


I'm hooked on these side views because depth, layers and texture are "my thing!"

"Remember Moments"

This "Mermaid" paper has become the signature paper from the Seaside Cottage collection and I love it! My original intent was to use it for an old photo of my dad but that will have to come another time …. once I get more of these papers. However, I was itching to scrap this brother and sister photo taken near a beach. Photo credit to the Souza's photographer, name unknown. 

Since everyone has already used this paper, I decided to "go big or go home" and used the large title "Remember Moments." Otherwise, it's actually a quite simple page. Under my photo I've used the Crossing the Lines chipboard. Both of these large pieces were inked and treated with some old rusting powders. 


Seaside Gala and Calling Cards papers were torn and tucked under my photo and on top of the chipboard. Cheesecloth was used as a base. I'm loving how versatile the Blue Fern Studios lilies are. 


A close-up of the title and also a view of some of the random stamping. 


The stenciling is light but yet ties the theme together. Now this layout is headed off to this sister who is missing her brother while he's away on the mission field. 

Blue Fern Studios Products used:

Paper: Seaside Cottage Mermaid, Gala, Calling Cards
Chipboard: Remember Moments, Crossing the Lines
Flowers: Dark Tropic, Late Winter and Seaside Lilies, Courtship blooms
Stamp: Widgets

That's all for now!
See you next month!

August Projects by Maja

Hello everyone, welcome to the Blue Fern Studios blog :-)

I have some projects for you today. All are based on the Attic Charm collection, filled with pastel colours and delicate designs, perfect for many kinds of projects! But they are not limited to sweet romantic or girly pages! I have made two boy layouts using this collection ;-)
Let's begin with a soft teal and gold page:


The title of the layout is the large Remember Moments piece that I embossed with Oatmeal and Sea Mist embossing powders:


I stamped some Journey stamps in the background, and then put my photos in Clip Frames. I used three embossing powders to add colours to the pieces: words with Ebony, clips with Mushroom and frames with Ginger:


I used one of the quotation tags from the Calling Cards sheet and added some flowers to match the colour palette:



We Do Not Remember Days:
Papers: Attic Charm: Spring Posy, Generation, Calling Cards
Chipboard: Remember Moments, Clip Frames, Directions
Flowers: Attic Charm Glitter Roses, Tranquil Roses and Lilies, Tranquil Blooms
Stamps: Journey
EP: Ginger, Oatmeal, Mushroom, Ebony, Sea Mist


And here's the other boy page, this time focusing on green shades of the papers from the collection, and many varietes of green embossing powders. They were a perfect choice for my green-eyed nephew's photo :-)


I used the Attic Key paper for the background, added some texture with a stencil and some stamping:


For the title I used the Dare to Dream piece that I embossed with Verdant and Lucky powders:



To decorate the page further I used the Lucky piece of the Charmed Page Dangles and added some colour to it with Copper, Lucky and Grassy Knoll embossing powders...


...and selected flowers from the Coursthip Blooms and Glitter Roses sets:




Lucky:
Papers: Attic Charm: Attic Key, Generation
Chipboard: Dare to Dream, Charmed Page Dangles, Postage Frames
Flowers: Attic Charm Glitter Roses, Courtship Blooms
EP: Grassy Knoll, Clover, Lucky, Verdant, Copper


The Attic Charm collection is perfect for many kinds of projects, not only layouts. Here are two cards I made using these beautiful papers. Here's a baptism card featuring the filigree Ornate Cross piece:


I added some machine sewing and delicate white and pink flowers:


 The soft pastel colours of papers from the Attic Charm collection are ideal for wedding projects too:


I placed a stamped sentiment in the smallest of the Psotage Frames piece and added two Mini Flourishes. All pieces are embossed with Oatmeal:


I finished off my design by adding some Tranquil Roses and Blooms, vintage ribbon and waxed string bows:




Baptism Card:
Papers: Attic Charm: Foyer, Mercantile
Chipboard: Ornate Crosses, Mini Flurishes, Postage Frames
Flowers: Courtship Roses, Tranquil Roses and Lilies
EP: 14 Karat
