September inspiration by Elena Volchkova

Hi everyone! Today, I have prepared three layouts using the beautiful Blue Fern Studio materials. And I'm happy to show them to you.

September... Fall brings cool. And we all want to extend the summer. Let's try? My layout of the summer days. A lot of flowers and heat. And romance of course!

"Forest Fairy" layout

This layout is for my sister. I really like this photo, and I wanted to do a little magic layout. Simple and complex at the same time.
I used the Susan's Dream paper from the Ombre Dreams Collection as my background paper. I wanted a very light background, and this paper was the perfect. Сhipboard of a set "Forest Friends" can be applied idealy for this layout.


From the photos I made a 3-D structure. Cut the picture into several parts and the central part raised above the rest.


Chipboard Swirly Doodle was covered with Imagine Ink 14 Karat embossing powders. It is so beautifully with butterflies and spring flowers!


Animals from the "Forest Friends" set was covered with mixture of Imagine Ink embossing powders in 14 Karat and Petal. For snail I added additionaly Breeze Imagine Ink embossing powders.

And then you can see in the background mix of glitters - Sunshine and Peridot. They are so funny!

Paper: Ombre Dreams - Susan's Dream

"Walk in a lilac garden" layout

My second layout about the walking in a lilac garden. La Plume paper from the Deja Vu Collection I used as my background paper. The second paper is the same I used to cut flowers out of it.
Many flowers and tenderness.


Serenity was covered with mixture of Imagine Ink embossing powders in Lilac and Iris.


Harlequin Panel decorated with Imagine Ink 14 karat embossing powder.


I used the Serendipity Medley stamp with Imagine Ink Iris embossing powder to create some details on my background. Plus I added drops of glitter Dusty Rose.

A little bit of lace and shabby ribbons added romance and tenderness.
And the main decor - flowers cutting from La Plume paper.

"Romance with umbrella" layout

The third layout today about romance with umbrella. It's very romantic and feminine. I used the Allegro paper from the Frolic Collection as my background paper.


Stillness was covered with Imagine Ink Breeze embossing powder. Embroidery - a little bird - adds a unique for my work.


I used a lot of lace, butterflies. Аnd of course, the flowers of the sets - Attic Charm Glitter Roses, Courtship Roses. They are beautiful!


Romantic Page Dangles I covered with Imagine Ink 14 karat embossing powder.

Serendipity Update

Hello everyone!  As promised, we are here today to introduce our new Serendipity paper collection (created by Michele Singh) and the chipboard, stamps, embossing powder and glitter that coordinate with the paper.

First up, we have the paper.  You are going to love the gorgeous colors and details!  

The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines serendipity as: luck that takes the form of
finding valuable or pleasant things that are not looked for.  

As you journey through this 10 sheet collection, you are going to find a myriad of treasures, intertwined with beautiful borders, textured backgrounds, dainty vintage flowers, and sweet songbirds.

Next up are the chipboard pieces we have created to coordinate with this collection.  We thought the titles of each page of this collection were so wonderful, that we created chipboard titles, too!

For all your stamping needs, we have three sets of stamps to coordinate with this collection.

We hope you have enjoyed seeing all the creative ways our Design Team has been using our new Embossing Powders.  We have three new colors that will be beautiful with the Serendipity collection.

Lastly, we have some gorgeous new colors of glitter to add some sparkle to your projects.

 Thanks for stopping by today.  We hope you enjoyed a look at our new Serendipity collection and everything that goes with it!
