March projects by Wendy Scholten

Hello everyone,
Today is my turn on the Blue Fern Studios Blog with my march projects.
I made 3 layouts, one with the chesterville collection and two with the new Spring Parade collection.

So let's start with the one from the Chesterville Collection called:

"Adorable"

I just love this picture of our little girl, she was only 10 months here.
I made this layout with the Whitford papers, i used the backside for my background and a piece from the front of the paper to place behind my photo.
 Don't you just love those papers, you can use them for every subject.
I embossed the chipboard pieces Textured Wildflowers, Memory Frames, one of the bohemian flowers and the word Adorable with the: iris, vintage gold and sand&sea embossing powders.
 To give the background a bit more texture i used the Essential Textures Stamp, that's all it really needed.
 I also used a lot of the gorgeous flowers : Heartland Blossoms, Courtship roses and the Dark Tropic Lilies
 I used a few things from my own stash: baubles, lace, berries, small beads in different colors and just a little bit of paint.

Now for the Second one, this features the gorgeous new Spring Parade collection.
This is such a beautiful, bright paper collection that  really feels like spring, although you can use it for anything!

This one i called:

"Dazzling"

For this one i used the June paper as my background, and a stencil with some moddeling paste and oil pastels to color the background. Behind my photo i used a piece of the Susie's garden paper, i also fussy cutted a lot of flowers from that paper.
 First i embossed the Janie's Fram Chipboard piece with the Lilac and the new Lavender Egg's embossing powders,
 I placed the frame and the fussy cut flowers behind my photo frame and decided i wanted to turn the picture a bit to the side to give it a different effect.
 i placed some rhinestones in and around my frame to give it a bit of sparkle.
  The title Dazzling i embossed with the lavender Egg's and Fern Embossing powders to let it stand out a bit more.
 i used a few little flowers, lace, a sticker and rhinestones from my own stash tot complete this layout.

A layout and Mini-Album with Seaside Cottage by Keren Tamir


Hi Everyone,
Its Keren here on the Blue Fern Studios blog for my September post.
This month I've created a layout and a mini album using the Seaside Cottage collection.

Since I love the beach so much, Seaside cottage is one of my favourite collections and I loved using it again.

Here is my layout:

"Frolic in the Sun"


For the background paper I used the Seaside Cottage Glory paper.
I used a picture of some seagulls flying in the air. It looks like they are Frolicking in the sun and dancing in the sunset. Thats why I used that chipboard title. The title was sprayed in gold ink.


The photo was framed with the Marseille frame which was painted in white gesso, then stamped with the Brocade texture. I used the same technique for the flutter medley and added it to the side of the frame. Then I embellished with matching Blue Fern Studios' flowers and added bits of the Persian ornament chipboard in between the flowers.


<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>



"Vacation"

For my second project this month I created this Sand Castle mini-album.
The mini album already comes like this and its made out of MDF material. However you could easily make and cut these shapes out of cardboard or other material to create your own mini album.

For the background and embellishments I used the following Seaside Cottage papers: Gala, Splendor, Glory and Calling Cards. 



For the cover I used some Blue Fern Studios flowers and some seashells. I also used a few of the following chipboard pieces: Seaside Seashells, Seaside Treasures and By the sea. For the title, I used the Summer Vacation chipboard title and cut out the Summer word out of it. All the chipboard pieces in the album were either embossed with Oatmeal or Breeze embossing powders and then lightly edged with brown distress ink.



For the next pages I used the Destination Label and the Sweetheart frame chipboard pieces which were both embossed with the Oatmeal Embossing powder.


For the following two pages I used the Seaside Lanterns, Memory Frame and Circle Links. All of these chipboard pieces were embossed with the Breeze embossing powder.

For this next page I used the Lane street sign to frame my photo and the and one of the Jubilation corners for the following page. I also use a chipboard shell above the photo which can be seen from the front cover. All of these were embossed with the Breeze embossing powder.
For the last page, which is the back of the album I used the Chipper chipboard frame to frame the photo. The frame was embossed in Breeze embossing powder.
As a final touch I added some snow texture around all the page edges.


Thank you so much for visiting the Blue Fern Studios Blog
Have a wonderful day!!!

June Inspiration with Karolina

Hi Blue Fern Studio's fans! It's Karolina here. Today I would like to show you my June's projects I made using our latest collection Attic Charm.

Paris Paris

Let's start with my first layout with beautiful view of the Paris and Eiffel tower. 


I started my work on the choice of photo and paper... It's always a most difficult step of the work ;) 
When I was planning my composition I realized I would like to add something interesting accent on my background. So I took another paper I tore it to the stripe. Then I put everything together and I knew it was a very good idea. I added some chipboard pieces, some flowers and medias and that' all! I really like this page, hope you too :)





I covered all  chipboards (except a frame) with using metallic paint in a copper color. A frame I covered with using a turquoise chalk ink.




Papers: Calling Cards, Curio, Generation, Sachet, Haberdashery, Spring Posy
Chipboard: Film Strips, Memory frames, Petite Boutique Frames
Stamps: Forever, 

Capture the moment


My second layout is definitely in a marine style. The idea for this work was born a year ago, but I was waiting for a good opportunity ;) First I used a clear gesso on my based paper, then I took unprimed canvas and cut out the sail. I built my whole composition on the top of the sail and I added some marine embellishments like a chain, steering wheels, a net. Finally I added a title using beautiful chipboard - "Capture the Moment". I covered a chipboards with using "seven seas" embossing powder. So everything is matching perfectly ;)






Papers: Curio, Generation, Sachet, Haberdashery, Spring Posy
Chipboard: Capture Words
Embossing powder: Seven Seas
Glitter: Caribbean, Gulf Coast
Stamps: Forever, Halftone,

Wedding cards

Attic Charm collection is very soft and romantic so it will be perfect for all you shabby projects. I prapered two very delicate cards for a wedding to show you how beautiful these papers are. I hope I succeeded.







Papers: Curio, Sachet, Mercantile, Calling Cards, Haberdashery, Spring Posy

April projects by Karolina

Hi everyone! It's time for my next projects for the Blue Fern Studios blog! Today I will show you 3 ( 4 exactly) totally different projects. Hope you will like them and you will feel inspired! :)

Memories

So let's start! My first project is a canvas. 


I used papers from Autumn Anthology and Deja Vu collection and few chipboard pieces. First I cut papers into small pieces and I created a texture on the background, then I built a 3D composition with these same papers, photos and chipboards. Finally I added some flowers and embellishments and media of course. I used pastels and watercolors.


I covered chipboards with using two different colors of embossing powders - lilac and breeze and a chalk finish acrylic paint (background pieces).



I added also some stamps with using black ink to make some contrasting accents.

Inspiration

My second project is a layout with cute photo of me and my grandpa. I used papers from a Timeless collection. I really love a vintage look of these papers. 


I built a composition based on 2 circles using papers, embellishments and flowers. I also used 2 chipboards - Inspiration and a frame. 



I used a acrylic nk and black gesso to add some color to my chipboard pieces.
