Perky (Blue Fern Studios)

Hi,

Here is my last layout for Blue Fern Studios.

Perky


My last layout features the Stillness paper from the Tranquility collection. I mated my picture with the Serenity paper, also from the Tranquility collection.


I wanted a masculine feel to this one, so I used the Grid Pieces on which I used clear crackle medium and some brown paint to make the cracks stand out more. I love the result. It matches the grid pattern in the paper. I also used a grid stencil with modeling paste and a grid stamp, along with the Texture 1 and Making Plans stamps sets.


Look at the texture on the chipboards pieces.


My title is part of The Optimist Word set. I left it raw.


To embellish everything, I used the Tranquil Blooms (green) and some Courtship Blooms (kraft and dark brown). Aren't those flowers simply amazing?

I hope you have a great day.

Serenity (Blue Fern Studios)

Hi,

I'm sharing today my second layout for Blue Fern Studios.

Serenity


My second layout features the Contentment paper from the Tranquility collection. When I got the collection, I wanted to create something special with this paper. It is just gorgeous. I decided on a layout about me, since I rarely use a picture of me.


For the background, I wanted to match what was already in the paper and that reminded me of sand or some rough texture. I used some stone effect medium with a stencil or simply applying it with a palet knife, and while it was still wet, I sprinkled some Imagine Ink Seven Seas and Honey embossing powders and heated it. I LOVE the result.


I did the same thing with my chipboards (the Crackle Bits). Look at this texture!


My title piece comes from the Serenity, Cam, Hushed set.

To mat my photo, I used the Jubilation and the Calling Cards papers, also from the Tranquility collection.


To embellish, I used two large flowers and some pale yellow lilies from the Tranquil Roses and Lilies set.


To add a bit of interest to my background, I partially stamped using the Serendipity Medley and the Making Plans stamps with blue ink, and the Postal Textures stamps with grey ink.

All You Need Is Love (Blue Fern Studios)

Hi there,

I'm here to share with you today my firs layout for Blue Fern Studios.

All You Need Is Love


For this layout, I stepped out of my comfort zone. Orange is a scary color for me, but this Keepsakes paper from the Timeless collection is so beautiful, I couldn't resist.


My main chipboard piece is the Circle Vine. I coloured it with brown ink, and then partially embossed it with Imagine Ink Honey and Chili Powder embossing powders. I just love how it turned out.


As for my background work, I used the Serendipity stamp with brown ink and the Garden Frolic stamp with orange ink. I also used some withe and gold texture paste, to add interest to the background. Brown ink drops complete the work.


My title piece is simply coloured with brown ink.


I must say, my layout is also inspired by the beautiful orange flowers, part of the Tranquil Blooms set. I just can't get enough of those gorgeous flowers. I also used some of the Courtship Blooms.

Blue Fern Studios products used:

Famille (Shimmerz Paints)

Hi crafters,

It's my turn today to share my creations with you. I received the beautiful French Riviera collection from Prima from Flying Unicorn. It inspired me this layout.

Famille
FU Famille

First, I used the «Respirer l'air de la Mer» paper. 
To add texture, I used a stencil with some modeling paste. After that, I glued some torn doilies with gel medium.

I wanted a beach color scheme, so I used Shimmerz Vibez Jeni B Bleu and  Shimmerz Coloringz Well Blue Me Down. I applied them with a brush, making drops and drying with a heat gun between the colors.

I used the Say It In Cristal from the French Riviera collection.

To embellish, I used the French Riviera Six-Four-les-Plages and La Mer flowers.
