Hello 2Crafty fans,

This month, I was a guest designer on the CSI Colors Stories Inspiration for Case #268! When I saw the challenge I knew exactly which pictures and materials would fit perfectly, as my inspiration for this layout had been brewing ever since my husband and I took these pictures. I just needed the perfect excuse to go in "full holidays mode"! I really love Christmas time (and reindeers) and a few weeks ago I found this amazing reindeer onesies PJ that can be worn as a costume so it was a match made in heaven.

For this challenge, I chose to integrate "Christmas/Holiday Elements", "Plaid", "Frames", "Deer", "Lightbulbs" and "Poinsettias" elements on a "Wood Background". I really like the result. The dark wood background brings some warmth to the layout while allowing the chipboard items to really stand out.



For the title, "Remember moments like this", I used black embossing powder.


On the "Christmas Light Strands", I applied red embossing ink and then gold embossing ink on top. For the "Foliage set 4", I used green embossing ink and then applied diluted teal metallic paint on top.


On the "Christmas frame", I applied white-gold embossing enamel.

For this layout, I used the following chipboards:

Christmas Frame #1 [Fr0114]
Christmas Light Strands [m00606]
Remember Moments Like This [w00306]
Foliage Set 4 [m00801]


That's it for 2018 for me! I wish you the best holidays season and I can't wait to see you again in 2019! Take care and keep creating!

The magic of Christmas - for 2Crafty

Hello 2Crafty friends! 

It's Christmas season and everybody around is getting into a cheerful mood, so I have an equally cheerful layout to reveal today! It features my daughter and I after she discovered the Snapchat filters last year. 



On the "ATC Flourish 2", I've applied green ink (although it looks a bit teal on the picture) and traced the contour with black ink. Just behind, I've embossed the "Foliage Set 5" with a red embossing ink and gently tapped with white embossing ink. 


I've used pink embossing enamel on the "Frame Nella's".


On the title, "The Magic of Christmas", I applied metallic gold embossing powder.

On this layout, I used the following chipboards:
The Magic of Christmas [w00484]
Frame Nella's [fr0071]
Foliage Set 5 [m00802]
ATC Flourish 2 [atc018]



That's all for today! I hope you liked my layout and that it'll give you some inspiration. I wish you all happy holidays season! See you soon.

Love you for 2Crafty

Hello 2Crafty fans,

I'm back with a new layout to reveal, featuring my husband and I in a picture we took during an impromptu night out a few days before Halloween. We had an amazing time on that unexpected evening and took this picture without noticing the skull behind us!



This first picture was taken while the work was still in progress. I took it so I could give you a better look at the background and at the "Bubble Clumps" chipboard on which I applied blue metallic embossing enamel.


On the "Foliage Set 3", I used diluted metallic teal paint and inked the contour with black ink. 


On the title, "Love you", I used bronze-gold metallized embossing powder.


This is a different angle showing the result on the "Love you" title.

On this layout, I used the following chipboards:
Bumble Clumps [m00561]
Foliage Set 3 [m00569]
Love You [w00237]


That's all for today! I hope you enjoyed this layout and it gave you ideas for your own creations! See you soon with more ideas!

'Isn't she Lovely' for 2Crafty

Hello 2Crafty fans!

I'm back to share my first inspiration for this month. November here in Quebec is cold, dark, rainy and damp, very damp. While we're waiting for the first big snowfall to brighten up everything, I've decided to prepare a bright and colorful layout featuring my beautiful daughter, Mila. 



For the "4" Mandala #1", I've used purple ink and then applied a purple metallized glaze. Then I used a black ink to trace the contour.


For the title, "Isn't She Lovely", I applied black embossing ink. On the "Fancy damasque", behind the title, I used a purple glaze and inked the contour.


I painted the "Freda's Butterflies" with teal metallized paint. Behind everything, on the "Glenda's Swirl", I used some teal embossing ink.


On the "Shrub Set 1", I used a rosegold wax and inked the contour.

I used the following chipboards in my layout:
Shrub Set 1 [m00446]
Freda's Butterflies [m00587]
Isn't She Lovely [w00536]
Glenda's Swirl [pa0034]
4" Mandala #1 [m00786]
Fancy Damasque [m00564]



That's all for me today! I hope this gave you some inspiration for your own creations. I'll be back soon with new ideas to share.

Beautiful spooktober for 2Crafty

Hello 2Crafty friends,

For this month of spooktober, I've prepared a layout featuring myself with the halloween costume I wore last year to go trick or treating with my kids. I wanted to prepare a themed layout that would not overdo the halloween theme so it would still look good when the time for spiced pumpkin lattes has passed.




In the background, for the "Curly Feathers", I applied orange ink then traced the contour with black ink. On the "Grid Panel", visible at the top, I used black matte paint.


I applied orange ink on the "Halloween Frame", then applied black embossing ink, and finally put a final coat of orange metallic embossing ink on top. On the title, "beautiful", I applied black embossing powder.


For the "Amelia Flower Stems", I used silver embossing powder and then applied black embossing ink on top of it.

Chipboards used in this layout:
Amelia Flower Stems (m00768)
Curly Feathers (m00655)
Grid Panel (m00723)
Halloween Frame (fr0084)
Beautiful Loopy Font (w00047)


That is all for today, I wish you a very happy halloween! Enjoy the spooky times and stay creative! See you soon with more inspiration ideas.
