May projects by Tartine Peluche

Hi everyone!
I'm so happy to show you my projects for this month.
I created 3 layouts with 2 differents collections including 2 with the new Happy Accident papers.
They are really stunning!

So let's start with the first one.

Make time for moment

 

For my first layout I used Quirk paper from Happy Accident collection.

 

I used Starry Night embossing powder for my title Moment.
A little yellow flower from Attic Charm Daisy. I also added some pieces of new Happy Accident Chipboard.

 

For this layout I have used two main chipboard: 
Floral Medley Frame that I have cut in four pieces, 
two for the photo frame and two others to create dimension under picture.
I embossed it with a mixt of powder, Seven Seas and Stormy Skies.
At the end I have putted some gesso on it.
Bits of Honey that I have embossed with 14karats embossing powder. I also used the negative that I have to do the same process with embossing powder and after I colorized the outlines with black solvant ink.
You can see on this pictur that I've used Scratched stamps with yellow ink, and Postal Texture with black ink.

 

For finish this layout I added some flowers and others negative chipboard of Bits Of Honey.
This tiny blue flowers are from Chesterville Blooms, my favorite flowers so far, very beautiful, and working with her is a pleasure. And this wonderful yellow flower, is from Happy Blooms, matching with new collection Happy Accident.
We can see on this one , that I've used Crackle Texture stamp with blue solvant ink.

Fairytale 

 

For my second layout of mont, I chose Blessing paper from Happy Accident collection.

 

The main chipboard on this layout is Barb's Medallion, I've cut it in two pieces, because it's tiny and I wanted to see it on either side of the photo. I embossed it with a mix of new 
colors from Spring Parade collection, Morning Sun and Speckled Mint. 
 Below all element , I placed two frames that I've create 
with cardstock and two pieces of Fortuity paper.


 

I chose to work with peach flowers on this layout, for this I've taked
Happy Roses from Happy Accident and Chesterville Blooms from Chesterville Collection.
I know it's not from Blue fern Studio products but I really love my tiny message bottle... from my hand :) Just a few beads and a small roll paper ... 

 

My chipboard title Fairytale is emboss with the same mixt than 
my chipboard Barb's Medallion, Morning Sun and Speckled Mint coordinated with Spring Parade collection.

Have you see my tiny turtle? I'm in love with her... ;)

I finish my post with my most detailed in paper, layout... 
All this page was created with the paper of the Collection Autumn Anthologie.
I took the Cottage paper and Robin paper for create my background.


 

I used Crackles Textures stamp with brown solvant ink and stencil of crackle.

 .

With my Oatmeal embossing powder, I altered my chipboard title Dream and my Ruth's Doily.
Because we can see only half of the doily, I cut it in two pieces. I will use the other part on another layout.
In white, are some parts of Rose Frame chipboard, that I've embossed with Snow embossing powder. 
A few having some mini beads before embossing, for texture.

 .

 

I used blue flowers from Chesterville Blooms and loght cream flower of Harvest Lilies.
With some paper ripped from Robin paper, I create a femce.
I cut a bird ans several flowers on the paper Mercantile and Robin.
With my Postal Texture stamp, I made a label.

March Creations by Nicole Doiron


How happy I am to be here with you again to share some more 
creations using Blue Fern Studios products.

Two of my layouts feature the beautiful new Courtship Lane collection,
starting with this romantic page inspired by the March sketch challenge.


This is the beautiful March sketch.  I'm hoping to see your take on it!


Like all Blue Fern Studios papers, Courtship Lane has elegant floral designs
and is centered on a Home Sweet Home theme.  And when I think of home, I think of love!
I used the Everlasting Love title which I covered in Imagine Ink Copper 
embossing powder and then dabbed in white paint.


Below you see the fancy Floral Vine which I embossed in Imagine Ink Copper, Sage
and Iris embossing powders.  I love the way the mix of colors turned out.


I did some stenciling on my background and mixed in different purple shades of stains.
I added a small piece of the Ironwork Accents set adorned with a purple gem.


All and all, a very soft color palette with a touch of copper to match the beautiful, 
albeit dead, rusted tree in front of which Yves and I posed in this picture.

Paper: Courtship Lane (Royal Street, Parkway, Calling Cards)
Chipboard: Everlasting Love, Floral Vine, Ironwork Accents
Imagine Ink Embossing Powder: Copper, Iris, Sage


My 2nd Courtship Lane inspired layout brings the 'home' theme home, so to speak.
I decided to scrap this old but precious family photo.  I have very few pictures of me alone as a baby
 or with my family, and the ones I do have are of very bad 1970's quality. This one, however, is certainly
a favorite of mine and I found that it was perfect for Courtship Lane.


Slipped behind my photo is the Princess Window which I've treated with 2 shades of Imagine Ink  powders,
Ginger and Nutmeg. I then lightly dabbed on some copper and white acrylic paint.


I did the same to this piece from the Leafy Page Accents set...


and this fancy hinge from the Ironwork Accents.


Other chipboard pieces used are the Reminisce word from Serendipity Words 2 and the Shabby Brick Bits
which I simply covered with Snow embossing powder.

As you may know, I'm from Canada and, in my part of the country especially, we have the longest Winters!  
They always seem to drag on and on and on... So to warm myself up a little, 
I thought of using this adorable picture of my friends' daughters on a beautiful 
Summer day matched with the bright happy papers from the Frolic collection.


The beautiful blue background paper, Petits Moments, covered in different shades of blue mist reminds
me of a bright blue sky.  I decided to combine it cut out circles of the pretty butterflies
from Dans le jardin paper.  I love the combination of blue and yellow.


 I chose Sunshine Kisses as my title, using the Sunshine piece from the Optimist Word Set
that I colored in  Buttercup yellow Imagine Ink embossing powder.


Surrounding the picture is the Floral Medley Frame on which I used a mixture of Seven Seas,
Breeze and Azure embossing powders with added white paint.  You can also see below
the Mixed Media Poppies that I cut into 3 pieces to display across diagonally on my page behind the butterflies.


Lastly, I chose to add this sweet little heart and arrow from the Directions set... perfect to accentuate 
the adorable sisterly love between these two little girls!

Whether or not it's Winter where you are, I hope I've added a little sunshine in your day with my projects!  
I can't wait already until next month's post!

My First Projects for Blue Fern Studios: Cathi O'Neill

Hi, I am so excited to be here today with my first projects for Blue Fern Studios!


My name is Cathi O'Neill and I am an American who wandered the world and married an Irishman. I have been living in Ireland since 1997. I live in a beautiful village on the Shannon River with my DH of 20 years (wow, that makes me feel old!) and my two beautiful daughters, Aine (onya) 13 and Aisling (ashling) 11, who are the subject of many of my projects!!

I have always loved crafting since I was a little girl. My grandmother taught me to knit and crochet and I remember sewing Barbie doll clothes with her on her front porch! I am a knitter and quilter as well, but have recently in the last few years found cardmaking and scrapbooking, and an obsession was born!! Barely a day goes by when I haven't done something crafty!!

I would say my style is a mixture of vintage, shabby chic with a hint of mixed media, you will often see me using vintage images! I hope you will come visit me at my blog at http://celticknotted.blogspot.com.


My first project uses the amazing new paper line, Blush. I have chosen a gorgeous vintage image that had just a tint of pink and blue in it...I used those to guide the layout's colors. I chose the beautiful Sweetheart paper for base of my layout.


I used many of the cut out cards and titles from the Blush Calling Card paper, layering them up! You can also see the Postal Textures stamps here in the background, I used Walnut Stain distress ink to make a weathered and distressed stamping background.


You can see two of the chipboard pieces I used, the gorgeous Floral Medley Frame and the Bits of Honey pieces. I used the Imagine Ink Sage and Bonny Blue on the frame leaving some sections plain for an overall distressed look. The Bits of Honey pieces were embossed with the Bonny Blue and I added some Walnut Stain distress ink to age them a little.


I used lots of yummy flowers from my stash in my floral cluster adding a ribbon for extra detail. I finished off the cluster with the heart lock from the Vintage Locks chipboard set.

My next layout features the gorgeous new Timeless collection and a beautiful selfie my daughter took on my iPad. It is always fun to find new photos to use for my layouts taken for me on the iPad, a selfie addicted girl is great for a scrapper! I have used the Timeless Maçonnerie page for the layout base.


You can see some more layers in this page using the Timeless Calling Cards paper cut outs. Under the photo I have used the middle clock from the Roman Clock Set - Large. I used the Imagine Ink Mystic Plum embossing powder to color up the chipboard, adding some gesso for distressing.


I love the retro font used for the Timeless chipboard! This layout is called Timeless Beauty, which I happen to think my daughter is! I have used Imagine Ink Mystic Plum embossing powder and gesso again to color and distress the title.


I have added some gorgeous flowers and a nest which I think works well with the bird imagery in one of the calling cards. I have also tucked in some tags under the photo cluster. I also used Seedless Preserves distress ink and a stone wall mask to tone in with the papers. I added a bit of blue and brown splashes too.


I finished off my layout with a beautiful handcrafted butterfly by Renea.

You might have seen this layout in the challenge post earlier, this is my take on the January sketch challenge. I have used the Frolic Allegro paper for my base. Here is the sketch you can use to play along this month:



I have used the beautiful Royal Monarch butterfly chipboard and embossed it in Imagine Ink Honey and Cotton Candy. I have made a homemade satin and tulle flower and have used the Essential Textures and Texture Circle stamps for my background.


Here you can see lots of layers from the Montage Calling Cards paper and the Turkish Bits and Arrow Words chipboards.


Imagine Ink Honey and Cotton Candy are used here again to color the chipboard. To finish off the layout with my gorgeous vintage ballerina I simply added a little clip to the corner of the photo.

Three Layouts Featuring Autumn Anthology and Frolic

Hi everyone!  Debbie here with you today sharing 3 layouts I created.  My first two layouts feature the
 new paper collection Autumn Anthology!  Absolutely love this new collection!  The colors and details
in the paper are beautiful!    

I thought the new Autumn Anthology collection worked well with some old treasured family photos.
I love this old photo of my grandparents, my mom and her siblings.  I used Newsworthy, Mercantile, Gazebo and Calling Cards papers.  Lots of layering behind my photo and some fussy cutting.

I used one of the new Blue Fern Studios Imagine Ink Mica Color Mists, Sky on my chipboard title and then stamped it with the new Essential Textures stamps.

Tucked beneath layers of papers I used the Roman Clock chipboard.

Here I've used the new French Ironwork chipboard piece which I left untreated and use the new Persimmon mist.  Leaving the chipboard raw brought out a darker color in the mist.

I also used the new Leaf mist on a mini flourish chipboard piece.

On my next layout I used Calling Cards and Cottage papers from the Autumn Anthology paper collection. Here I've used another treasured family photo of my mom and her brother.
I did some masking on the background and misted with the Persimmon mist.
Here you can see when sprayed on a light background the color is much brighter.

The new chipboard piece, An Autumn Story was covered with acrylic glaze and given a light misting with the Persimmon mist.  I used a Garden Daisy chipboard which I misted with the Sky mist and cut apart to use in two different places on my layout.

The Garden Lattice Bits Chipboard was covered with an acrylic glaze.  Tucked into my flower cluster is the other piece of the Garden Daisy chipboard.

I used a piece of the Symphony border chipboard here in my flower cluster.

My final layout was created using the Frolic collection and was based off of the September sketch.
I used several papers on this layout, Amoroso, Friendship, Mercantile, Dan Le Jardin, Allegro, Secretary Calling Cards ,and Petits Moments, mostly for layering behind my photo
         
                               
            I took the Tea Medley chipboard piece and cut it in half, using it on both sides of my picture.  I primed it with gesso and embossed it with pink embossing powder.

           Tucked within my flower clusters of piece of the Floral Medley Frame with I randomly sprinkled with pink embossing powder.

 At the top of my layout I used the Jasmine Floral Pendant which I embossed with light pink embossing powder.

I hope you have enjoyed my layouts.  Don't forget that you still have time to enter our September Sketch Challenge.  You can find all of the details here.

Thanks for stopping by!
