Hello!　It's Yuko.

I am very glad to get "montage"! 

This is my remarkable favorite♡

Since the layout was made instantly, it introduces！

【Fabulous】          

We went to see a sunflower in the summer of this year.

It was very beautiful and spread on one side.

"Montage:Society"was perfect for these photos!

I put it backed by Marrakesh Panel, and a photograph was outstanding.

Cherish with Adrienne Ford

Hello Everyone! 

\

I have a new video up to share with you today! This one is featuring the beautiful new Montage Paper Collection and an array of new Blue Fern Chippies! Very exciting new products! I really enjoyed working with Montage Papers as they are so shabby and beautiful. I paired it with a - photo of my daughter as a newborn- there are so many variations and themes you can use it for! 

For my Blue Fern Chipboard I went for a layered look, trying something a bit different- layering embossing techniques and watercolor over top. The result was very unique!

'Love Always' by Lisa Griffith

Hello everyone!

By now you've all seen the beautiful new collection 'Montage' by Blue Fern Studios,

such lovely papers to work with. Here I chose the paper 'Society'.

I did a lot of masking and stamping in the background and then added the following chipboard pieces that I kept simple with a coat of white acrylic paint, 'Love Always', 'Circle Flourish', 'Veranda Cage Set', and 'Wild Flourish Frame'.

My second project is a card I made with the paper 'Julianna's Dream' as my base,

and then added lots of masking, misting and stamping.

I added two pieces of the small 'Roman Clock Set' which I painted white, 

then added some flowers and some paint splashes.

And finally, the layout I created for the September sketch challenge, 

which you still have plenty of time to enter before the end of the month!

Here is the gorgeous sketch designed by Michele Singh:

Remember, you don't have to use the exact chipboard that is in the sketch,

but you must use Blue Fern Studios products.

Here is my layout using the September sketch:

I had so much fun creating this, experimenting with my new gelatos, and I love the bright sweet colors, a perfect addition to the beautiful 'Shannon's Dream' paper from the 'Ombre Dreams' collection. I used several pieces from the 'Roman Clock Set' again and also a piece called 'Circle Flourish' that I painted white and then painted with my gelatos to match my background.

I hope I inspired you a little today!

Until next time....Lisa xo

Montage with Patter

I am so excited to share the new Montage papers with you this month along with some of the new chipboard pieces. Let's look at what I have for you today.

A Joyful Heart
For this 8 1/2 x 11 layout, I traced one of the Graduated Squares chipboard pieces onto the Montage Bouquet paper and cut it out to use as a third square on the layout.

Also, when trimming this gorgeous 12x12 piece of Montage Fairyland paper down to 8 1/2 x 11, I unfortunately had to cut off two of the beautiful edges. But it was easily solved. I stitched the bottom piece back onto the layout. I chose to leave the right edge bare but I could have easily stitched that on also. So don't ever hesitate to cut down these papers for smaller layouts.

To treat the chipboard pieces, I painted them all in black gesso. Easy but I love the "pop" that black provides to a creation.

What a Day
For this 8 1/2 x 11 layout, I used several new pieces of Blue Fern Studios chipboard—What a Day, Printer's Bits, and Arrow Words. I just love all of these pieces. The gorgeous papers I used are Montage Now and Then and Calling Cards.

Again, I covered most of the chipboard pieces in black gesso except the Printer's Bits (the number 20). I used gelatos to color the numbers and then covered each one in Glossy Accents.

September Sketch
Have you joined in on the September Sketch Challenge yet? If not, be sure to click here for the details and to join in the fun. Remember you can do anything with these sketches! I turn the 12x12 Blue Fern Studios sketches into 8 1/2 x 11 layouts, art journal pages, and cards. This is the card that I created using the September Sketch.

To cover the Roman Clock set chipboard, I put on a layer of gesso. Then I spritzed with three different colors of Prima Color Bloom Mists to match the Blue Fern Studios Ombre Dreams paper.

"Montage" Layouts with Rae

Hello everyone! It's Rae sharing some new projects I've made using the fabulous new Montage paper collection! This collection is PURE JOY to work with, and I'm excited to use it to create many more projects. Here are my first three that I've made to show you this month:

"Happiness is the Sunshine of the Soul" Layout

For this layout I used the "Invitation" and "Bouquet" papers from the Montage collection. 

In this closeup, you can see part of the JEWELED FRAME chipboard. I treated this by using several embossing powders, and randomly touching it with an archival ink pad.

Here's another one:



On the edges of the layout,  I placed some TURKISH BITS that I embossed. I also used more embossing powder to treat the MINI FLOURISHES.

"Take Time..." Layout

For this layout I used "Bouquet," "Calling Cards," and "Now and Then" from the Montage paper collection.

I covered three PARTY FLAGS with various Montage papers, then threaded the holes with jute twine.

For this LEAFY BOUGH, I cut it in two to wrok better with my design. I left it "naked" then used glitter glue and loose glitter on top of it and used a heat gun until it bubbled.

"Sitting Pretty" Layout

From the Montage collection, I used "Calling Cards," "Wisdom," "Invitation," and "Bouquet" papers.

I cut a piece from GINGER'S POPPIES, and embossed it with a vintage pink embossing powder.

 I painted the ORNATE SHELF with black milk paint which gave it a matte finish.

I took the inserts of the ORNATE SHELF out of the main piece, and used one of them for an accent piece on the side of the photo.

And, I used the MINI FLOURISHES again, this time using gesso, embossing powders, and a green mist for this shabby chic finish. 

Thanks for checking out my projects today!
