November Inspiration by Wendy Scholten

Hi All,
Hope you are enjoying November as much as i do although i must say i'm looking forwards to december. I just love that month with our little girls birthday and Christmas.
The sparkling lights, cozy inside with hot cocoa and off course the Christmas tree.
I have 3 layouts this month to share with you, from which one of them of course features the vintage Christmas collection.

So let's start with the first one:
Memories
It features an older collection, Timeless, but those papers are still gorgeous!
I started with some gesso to secure my paper and used a stencil with moddeling paste and 3 different colors of sprays to give my layout some more texture.
I placed a little piece of cardboard and paper behind my photo to give it some depth and embossed my chipboard pieces. The title Memories with Stormy skies embossing powder, the scalloped border with oatmeal embossing powder and Heidi's Emblem with Taupe Embossing powder.
I decided to give the Garden Florals a brown color with a spay to match my layout a bit more.
And made flower clusters with the Garden Florals, Wanderlust Lilies and Apricot Blooms.
Next i used some metal embellishments and pebbles to finsh my layout.

And now my next one:

I used the backside of the Let it Snow paper and used some Gesso, moddeling paste and a snowflake stencil for my background, i also used 3 different shades of color spary and the Jingle Bells Stamp.
I love Lace number 8, it's so pretty so i had to use it on this layout.
The title Warm and Cozy was cut out of a framed winter word and i embossed it with Fern and antique gold embossing powder as well as the Snow medley chipboard.
I used some Garden Blooms and Homespun Blossoms for my flowers and finished my layout with glass and sweet pea seedlings.

I finished my layout with Mauve and Wintergreen Seedlings and some flowers from my own stash.

My layout for October by Marie-Eve Bernard

Hello,

I'm back with my three layout for October.  The first two are with the Seaside Cottage, I just wanted to keep summer here a little longer.  My last one is more seasonal with the fall color palette.

Mommy's Boy

My first layout is featuring my baby boy...and me!  It's not often that i use a picture of me on one of my project but I really like this one. For this layout, i use less medium as usual.



On the chipboard of the title, I apply a coat of gesso and add blue spray ink. For the squares, i just apply gesso.

September inspiration by Pascale

Hello Sweeties,

Today I'm up on Blue Fern Studios blog with three new projects. The first one featured the Tranquility collection: it was perfect for this photo of Marilyn Monroe.


I started to cover the Hushed paper with a thin coat of clear gesso; Then I added a design with a stencil and two pastes: black heavy gesso and platinum crackle paste.


When dry, I added more texture with the Arcadia Texture stamp and the Magenta embossing powder.


I just painted the Chelsea Vines with black gesso.


I embossed the Corner Flourishes with Pearl embossing powder.


Then I glued all the embellishments (flowers, chipboard and lace) with a 3D gel. 


Blue Fern Studios products:

Papers - Tranquility (Hushed, Calling Cards) ;
Chipboards - Chelsea Vines, Corner Flourishes ;
Stamp - Arcadia Texture ;
Imagine Ink - Embossing Powders (Pearl, Magenta) ;
Flowers - Courtship Roses, Tranquil Lillies and Roses, Seaside Lillies.

------------------------------------

The second layout feature the Timeless collection which is perfect for this photo I've taken in the park of the castle of Chaumont-sur-Loire (Loire Valley, France). It's a sculpture from Giuseppe Penone: “Trattenere 8 anni di crescita (Continuerà a crescere tranne che in quel punto), 2004-2012”.)


As usual, I primed the Abode paper I chose as background with clear gesso. Then I added a design with a stencil and platinum crackle paste. I sprinkled Foll's Gold and Pyrite glitters while the paste was still wet.


I splattered watered gesso and let dry. Then I continued some splattering with gold and rust mica powders mixed with water and gel medium as well as gold paint.


In the meantime, I painted the Roman Clock with a gold acrylic paint. When dry, I added a coat of clear crackle paste and let dry naturally. I added some rust mica powder to darken the crackle as well as some pale silver mica powder to lighten the clock face.


First I embossed the Stillness title with the mushroom embossing powder. While the powder was still hot I sprinkled some pearl embossing powder as well.


I primed the Arching Leaves with white gesso, then I painted it with a rust mica powder. Then I added a coated of clear crackle paste.


When all the embellishments were glued, I added some micro beads.

Blue Fern Studios products:

Papers: Timeless (Abode, Main Street)
Chipboards - Roman Clock Set - Small ; Arching Leaves ; Peaceful, Stillness, Contentment
Imagine Ink - Embossing Powders (Musrooms, Pearl) ;
Imagine Ink - Glitters (Foll's Gold, Pyrite).

------------------------------------

I chose to work with the Tranquility collection again for my third layout.


I primed the background with clear gesso. Then I added a design with a stencil and clear crackle paste: I covered randomly the stencil with two chalk inks before applying the crackle paste through it.


While the crackle paste was still wet I sprinkled some Pyrite and Blue Ice glitters.


I sprayed all the chipboards with two inks: a brown and a teal and dried them. Then I added the same chalk inks I used previously with the stencil, sprayed some water.


I kept the Floral Garden Bits like this and I covered the Layering Stems with Glossy Accent.


I die-cut some leaves in the Jubilation paper and I colored the flowers lightly with a beige watercolor.
