Projects for May by Lydia Guijt

Hello Paper and Blue Fern Studios friends! 

This month our new collection Happy Accident is a big favorite of mine. Love the designs and wonderful colors. To top it all off Blue Ferns Studios also created a Printed Chipboard sheet to compliment the papers. What's not to love. 
Let's check out my first layout!

Beauty in Chaos 


To show of these wonderful new Happy Accident Chipboard Pieces I created this layout. Whenever I create you should see my table. Yes you guessed it. Chaos. So I found this particular title perfect to make a layout with .


I started with the Halftone and London Chronicle stamps to create some interest on the Fate background page. Because the page already has circles on there I decided to keep up with that theme. 


The Circle Group Pieces I embossed with Ebony and the Mini Ring Things with the gorgeous new Plum color. Perfect fit with this new collection. Now it's time to create my layers and started stacking. Having all the interesting parts pop out. The beautiful light green Late Winter Lily matched perfectly. To fine tune the look I added some thread, lace, I die-cut some leaves and some sparkle with the new Pea Soup glitter, some mists, beads and bling. 
I hope you like it!

For my second layout I'm using an older collection, Paisley & Vine. Beautiful papers with gorgeous contrasting colors, details and even some abstract patterns. 
When we visited Las Vegas I took photos of this statue that I wanted to use. The Metal trees surrounding it in the red is what made the decision to use this collection the winner.


I layered the SplendorPassion and Pathway papers so the red just shows a thin outline. 
With the Tattered News Print stamp I stamped randomly around the page. Now with one of my stencils I added some texture with paste.
The Bits of Honeycomb were embossed with Icicle, the Graduated Circle, leftover part from the Swirly Circle and Chesterville Doodle embossed with Speckled Mint with some Peacock Glitter sprinkled over it too. The leaves I've used on the layout are cut out Blooms & Stems stamp prints embossed with Fern.


Now that we have all the building blocks for our layout prepared we can put it together. For some layering under the photo I cut up pieces from the Playing Cards sheet. Using one of the cards as the title. Layering the chipboard pieces and placing the flowers including the Late Winter Lilies to finish of the layout.

April projects by Wendy Scholten

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

So let's start with the first one.
I used the Spring Parade for this one, i wanted to keep it simple so the picture really stands out.
I wonder from who she get's her goofiness , lol!

'Happiness'

I used the Sunday Best paper, a stencil with modeling paste and oil pastels with some water for the background. Behind my photo i used a piece of the Market place paper.
I chose the Happiness word from the Good Vibes word set, i used it with the new lavender eggs embossing powder.
And the other chipboard pieces are the Ginger Poppies, i used those with the snow embossing powder and tucked them behind my photo.
For my flower clusters i used the Chesterville Blooms, Harvest Lilies and a few of my own stash.
I used a mix of sequins to give it more color and playfulness.

For this layout i also used Spring Parade papers, the Remembrance backside. I used the paper twice, one i torn in half and place it on top of the whole paper, i tucked some lace behind it.
Behind my photo i used some moddeling paste with a baroque stencil and some sprays for the color.
I also used the tattered newsprint stamp with the vintage gold embossing powder to give my background more color.
As my chipboard title i used The Big Day from the Wedding Words set which i embossed with the vintage Gold Embossing Powder.
And to frame my photo i used the Bordeaux Layered Frame, the back i embossed with Snow Embossing Powder and the front with the Oatmeal embossing powder.
 For my flowers i used Heartland Blossoms and some of my own stash.

I also used some embellishments, stickers, a doily, glitter and some cheesecloth.

First Christmas projects by Karolina Czajkowska



Hello all Bue Fern Studios fans!
Karolina here with you today sharing my November inspiration for Blue Fern Studios. 

This time I have a very big problem with prepare anything for my inspiration, because Vintage Christmas collections are so beautiful, that I would like to look at them, and look and look, without cutting ;) 
But of course i made a bold decision and finally I cut them all :D


Oh, Deer!

My first Christmas proposition in this year is a wooden shadow-box in a shape of a house. First I painted a house using chalk paint, then I could start to add papers and flowers and chipboards. I used a lot of chipboard pieces! I covered them with embossing powder - white ones with a "snow" embossing powder, the Deer ornament with "oatmeal" and a "antique gold" embossing powder and the Dangled Flake with three embossing powders - "breeze", "snow" and "frozen". I mixed it together in a small jar to make sure that it will be looking good, and then I put it on a chipboard. It's a great idea to make new embossing powders effects. 






Christmas Cards

I really like to make Christmas cards. It's very sentimental for me because I started my scrapbooking adventure from exactly Christmas cards :D This time I prepared for you 4 cards with using Vintage Christmas collections. I think you can treat these collections like a one very big collection because papers are matching together perfectly.
