Hello, everyone! The beautiful new Spring Parade collection inspired me to create another Easter layout. The colors in this collection are just so pretty! I hope you will consider getting some for yourself.
I chose the Spring Parade - Sunday Best paper for this layout. I love the floral spray at the top and the cute little bunny on the bottom! To create my background, I used a few different colors of sprays, a stamp from the Forever stamp set, and the Tattered Harlequin stamp.
I embossed the Floral Clock and Cute chipboard pieces with Oatmeal embossing powder. This color is wonderful!
I used several flowers to embellish my layout: Chesterville Blooms, Soft Blossoms, Spring Peony and Berries, Spring Florals, and a few others from my stash.
Hi, Blue Fern Studios friends and fans! I have some scrapbook page inspiration for you today featuring the brand new beautiful Spring Parade collection. If you didn't have spring fever before, just wait until you get a look at the pretty pastel colors and gorgeous patterns in this collection. They are perfect for all of your Spring and Easter projects.
Brilliant
I chose the back side of the Spring Parade Susie's Garden paper as the base of this layout. I covered it with clear gesso so that I could apply mixed media products. Then I added 3 shades of pink and purple spray. It is important to let each color layer dry before adding the next color, otherwise the colors will blend together. Next, I applied modeling paste through a stencil. Then I used the Tattered Newsprint stamp to add detail and contrast.
I chose the Spring Parade May Vignettes paper and used both sides of it under my photo.
I used the Blooming Flourishes chipboard set under my photo. I embossed it with the new Lavender Eggs Imagine Ink embossing powder. Isn't it pretty?!
I used Imagine Ink 14 Karat embossing powder on the title piece from the Brilliant, Amazing, Dazzling chipboard set. I also sprinkled some gold beads here and there to coordinate with the gold title piece.
I dabbed the embellishments with a bit of heavy gesso to soften up the look.
and yes, I'm proud of my little girl for her academic accomplishment :)

For my second layout, I could not resist the Spring Parade June paper! This paper is so very pretty. I love the lace print border, the sweet flowers and in the bottom left corner... the Easter egg. I added just a bit of color to the focal point area of the paper with 3 shades of purple and pink spray. I topped that with a thin layer of modeling paste through a stencil.
I used three layers of the Spring Parade May Vignettes paper to mat my photo.
The chipboard piece behind my photo is from the Circle Groups set. There are 5 pieces in that set, so it can be used on several projects! I embossed it with Imagine Ink Lavender Eggs embossing powder. It's so sparkly in person!
I was inspired by the colorful Easter eggs in my photo to add several colors of flowers to the page. I tucked in one of the new Fancy Eggs chipboard pieces which I heat embossed with Imagine Ink Cotton Candy embossing powder.
I also used the Cotton Candy embossing powder on my title piece, which is from the Perfect, Adorable, Special chipboard set.

Hello Blue Fern Studios fans! I am thrilled to write my first blog post as Blue Fern Studios Design Team member! It's a dream come true for me!
Let me first introduce me. I am 39 years old and I live in Quebec City, Canada. I'm a 4th grade teacher and a mother of two children of 6 and 4 years old that are the main stars of my layouts. I do scrapbooking for 11 years now and this is my passion. I love doing romantic layouts full of flowers. I also love mixed media.
Here's my first projects as Blue Fern Studios Design Team member.
'Follow Your Heart'
For this first layout, I made a step-by-step video tutorial that you can watch below. I used the paper Heartland XOXO to start this project. First, I made a textured background with a stencil and modeling paste. I used yellow and caramel inks to add colors. I also add details with the 'Making Plans' and 'Vintage Phrase' stamps.
Then, I embossed my chipboards 'Crackle Bits' with BFS Imagine Ink Embossing Powder 'In the Navy'. I used 4 pieces of this chipboard under my picture. I cut one piece to make the design I wanted. I used 3 others papers of the Heartland collection to put under my picture.
I embossed my title 'Follow Your Heart' with BFS Imagine Ink Embossing Powder 'Honey'.
Then, I glued many Blue Fern Studios blue, yellow, white and turquoise flowers.

I did my second layout on the gorgeous paper 'Wonderland' of the collection Vintage Christmas. I first did a subtile tone on tone background with modeling paste, stencil and brown inks. Then, I stamped with brown ink some words with the 'Vintage Phrase' stamp set.
I embossed the 'Floral Lattice Bits' chipboards with BFS Imagine Ink Embossing Powder 'Garnet' to add a little bit of colour. I used pieces of Vintage Christmas 'Greeting Cards' paper and Vintage Christmas 2 'Holiday Cards' to put under my picture.
I embossed the chipboard 'Circle Vine' with BFS Imagine Ink Embossing Powder 'Ginger' and my title 'Magnifique' from the French Adjectives 1 chipboard set with BFS Imagine Ink Embossing Powder 'Garnet'.
Then, I add many Blue Fern Studios flowers.

Hi everyone! Debbie here with you today to share my last projects for Blue Fern Studios. I've enjoyed the last year and a half designing for Blue Fern Studios. I want to thank Leslie and Valerie for the opportunity given to me to work with all of the amazingly beautiful products. My final 3 projects include both of the Vintage Christmas collections.
I went in a different direction for my first project and decided to create a Christmas Canvas, a gift for my sister. I used a mixture of the both of the Vintage Christmas paper collections.
I worked with an 8x8 canvas, which I covered with the Let It Snow (side B) paper from
Vintage Christmas 2. Lots of paper layering from both collections and of course chipboard and flowers! Some masking on the background as well as some micro beads.
Under my layering I used the Grand Ornament chipboard which I cut in half and embossed with some Snow and Oatmeal embossing powders. Lots of gorgeous Blue Fern flowers including Attic Charm Glitter Roses, Harvest Lilies, and Soft Blossoms.
At the top of the canvas is the upper portion of the Grand Ornament chipboard.
On each side of the canvas I placed the Frosty Flake chipboard which I embossed with Snow embossing powder.

My next project features both of the Vintage Christmas paper collections.
Love this picture of my sweet dog, Zoey. She loves to lay on the couch next to the Christmas tree, I used Twas The Night paper from Vintage Christmas 2 for my background. Lots of layering and fussy cutting using Holiday Cards and Jolly from Vintage Christmas 2 and Wonderland from Vintage Christmas.
Here's a close up of the beautiful Blue Fern flowers, Christmas Blooms, Soft Blossoms and Attic Charm Roses.
Here I used the Dream Catcher chipboard, embossed with Snow.
To the left of the photo I placed a past of the Leafy Bough chipboard which I embossed with Verdant and Sea Mist embossing powders. The title was embossed with a mixture of Poinsettia and Sea Mist. I added some random stamping with the Forever stamp and added Sea Mist embossing powders.

My final layout features papers from Vintage Christmas 2.
I used the Tree Trimmings paper for the background. I added some light inking along with some random stamping, some scattered dots covered in Fire Engine Glitter. Lots of layering under the photo using the Holiday Cards paper. Flowers include Attic Charm Glitter Roses, Christmas Blooms and Soft Blossoms.
On both sides of the photo I used the Floral Lattice Bits chipboard embossed with a mixture of Antique Gold and Golden Bricks.
Beneath the photo is a Tree Toy chipboard piece embossed with Golden Bricks along with some Fools Gold and Fire Engine Glitter.
The title was embossed with a mixture of Antique Gold and Golden Bricks Embossing powders.
