Fall & Winter- By Keren Tamir

Hello Everyone,

Its Keren here with two projects for the Blue Fern Studios blog. 

The first one is a layout depicting the beautiful colours of fall.

The second project is a winter wonderland double shadowbox canvases.

"An Autumn Story"

I used the Deja Vu- Un Voyage a Paris paper for the background. Then I started drawing brown leaves with some water-colour oil pastels to mimic the leaves on the ground.

I stamped the brick pattern out of the Essential Texture stamp on the background and I also used the Shabby brick bits behind the photo to double the brick effect.

I also used a chipboard Photo arch on the side of the photo along with "An autumn story" title.

"Noel Blessings"

My second project this month is a set of two 6x6 shadowbox canvases with a wintery theme.

I used the winter flakes and covered them with diamond dust to make them look realistic.

I also used the Winter Forest chipboard set which was covered in gold glitter.

Then I used two separate titles from the Winter title set which I painted in copper acrylic paint.

I used cheese cloth and many other mixed media elements to create this winter wonderland!!

Thank you so much for visiting the Blue Fern studios blog

Have a wonderful day!!

Christmas altered art by Marie-Josee

Hello folks!

This is my last post for Blue Fern Studios and I have three projects to show you, all created with the Vintage Christmas collection.

Box card

I did a bit of fussy cutting for the card. I cut the child and the Christmas tree out of the Calling Cards paper. I used a piece of the Country Picket Fence chipboard between the child and the Christmas tree and a piece of the Winter Flakes chipboard set. Both were altered with white gesso.

 

 

 

Gift bag

I created this gift bag from scratch, using a Vintage Christmas paper. I cut small pieces of the Mini Rings Panel and glued them to each side of the bag. Then, I applied gesso randomly with a sponge. I also added Imagine Ink Embossing Powder in Poinsettia.

 

 

Christmas scene

Finally, here's a Christmas scene in a box. I created the box from scratch using kraft paper. I cut the bottom and used parchment paper as a background (you can also use vellum paper). I used various Vintage Christmas papers and a die to create the houses. I added gesso to the edges, as if it is snow. I also altered the two snowflakes from the Winter Flakes set with gesso.

I used parchment paper as a background to be able to light the scene with battery-powered tea lights, which I put behind my Christmas scene, so that it creates a soft glow.

December Inspiration with Melinda Thompson

Hello my crafty friends :)

This is my final projects for Blue Fern Studios.  My 12 month term finishes at the end of December and I can't believe how quick that 12 months went!

With my last 2 projects I used the new Vintage Christmas paper range. Its a beautiful paper range with such a range of colours to choose.

In my first project I was inspired by the gorgeous pinks, reds and aqua's. Such a pretty combination.

"Merry Christmas"

Lots of paper strips and fussy cutting...oh what fun! Chipboard pieces have been lightly painted in Gesso first and then covered with mists, inks and glitter :)

Paper: Vintage Christmas

Chipboard: Holiday Frame, Holly Sprigs, Word Ornaments

My second project is full of glitter and shine! I have used the new Imagine Ink Glitter range - Carribean and Pyrite on my chipboard pieces and a sprinkle here and there in my paper. I was truly shining after this project!!! :):)

"Magical"

Paper: Vintage Christmas

Chipboard:  Winter Village, Winter Titles, Winter Page Dangles, Christmas Ornaments, Beaded Strings

Thanks for stopping by today, I hope you feel inspired to create this holiday season. Thank you Blue Fern Studios for having me on the team this past 12 months...its been absolutely fun!
