Love is in the air for 2crafty

 Hello 2Crafty fans!

A few days ago my husband and I took one rare break from the kids to go see a show together. It had been like what seemed an eternity since we last took the time to go out by ourselves! We had an amazing time and took a bunch of pictures. 

The layout I'm presenting today really capture that happy fun mood we were in that night. I really like the result and I've prepared a video to show how I worked with the products.

"Love is in the air"

You can click on the video and enjoy how I created this layout.

On the "Aztec Feathers", I applied a diluted coat of blue-purple paint and then applied some purple metallic embossing ink on top.

For the "Frame Botanical", I used pearl colored paint and a transparent glaze to sprinkle microbeads on top. Then I inked the border with black ink.

On the title, "Love is in the air", I applied 2 coats of midnight gold embossing powder.

This layout uses the following 2Crafty chipboards:

That is all for me today! I hope you enjoyed my layout and you found the video helpful. I will be back soon with more creations to share with you. Until then, keep creating!

"Day at the beach" pour 2Crafty

Hello 2Crafty friends!

Summer time has officially come to a close here with my kids going back to school after two months of fun and amazing memories! They're happy to see all their friends again but they say they already miss the beach and can't wait to go back next year. We've been going for 4 straight years now and they enjoy it even more every year.

The layout I'm sharing today show them with the same pose taken on each of these four years. We made it so they wore the same swimsuit the first two years, but they've been growing too fast for us to repeat that after. 

"Day at the beach"

On the "Palm Leaves Set", I applied a green embossing ink and then applied green-gold wax on top.

For the "Flower set 1", I inked with teal ink and then used a blue embossing ink on top.

On the "Fish Net Bits", I used teal wax applied with a small brush.

For the title, "Day at the Beach", I used a blue-white-gold embossing enamel.

I used the following 2Crafty chipboards in this layout:

That is all for me today! I hope you enjoyed this and that it will give you some inspiration for your creations! And if your kids are going back to school, I wish you and them to have a good time! I'll be back soon with more ideas to share.
