November inspirations by Tartine Peluche

Hello crafty friends, I'm back to share with you my november inspirations.
This month I've used Homespun collection and Vintage Christmas.

************************************
*Made With Love...*
( Homespun)




First, I work my photo, several layers of paper and fabric. I used only the frame of the chipboard *Sweet Home Vignette* I embossed it with AVOCADO powder. I cut some paper flowers from *Homespun Mini* and put them in a different layer with some printed chipboard. Some are detached from the cardboard to make only one paper.


I used chipboard *Made with love* as if it was a tea latte, the *lace9A* represents the milk froth.
Sprinkled a little love in his tea with *ingredients* chipboard. Hearts come from negatives of the ''tea cup'' chipboard. I added a few flowers pieces of *lace6*.


Frame come from *Printed Chipboard*


*Made With love* title was embossed with a mix of *baby pink* and *bubble gum* powder.
I really love the result, very subtle.


All the lilies flowers are mixte of all pink lilies flowers from flowers collection of BFS.

************************************************

...
*Tea Party*
(Homespun)





Layering of my picture was created with the two side of homegrown paper, lace 3 and lace 7B dyed.
My title Home Sweet Home was embossed with a mix of Fern and Speckled Mint powder.


I used Homespun Blooms on this layout, This color ... WOW!! love it!
I separated the flowers and lattice from the lace 7B and I used them separatly.


Lace Round chipboard was embossed with Goldylocks powder and added some pieces of printed chipboard.

Stamp Crackle with Fern embossing powder, Garden Frolic with yellow ink pad
and pieces of lattice, give texture to my background.

I'm addicted to shrink plastic, it's often the way I use stamps, here's an exemple here
with the stamp Hospitali-Tea. An easy way to create unique embellishments.
I used Late winter lilies that match perfectly with homespun blooms. A few buttons and real hazelnuts finished the combinaison of my embellishments.

************************************

And here is my Chritstmas layout of month.

*Joy*(Vintage Christmas)



I create a very simple layout because the paper alone gives all the magic effect. I think is one of my fav in this collection. I've only used flakes stencil and ink with seedling and
 sequins for my background.


I embossed Frosty Flake with the new color, Taupe, it,s look like precious metal.
I cut paper flower from Greeting Cards paper.


Look at that! My chipboard really shine, love it so much!
To add texture just a few mauve seedlings.


I've been using a lot of metalwire for a while, I'm rolled up everything I find... LOL
After embossing with Taupe powder my title, I added wire on my chipboard and under my photo.

And To finish my layout, I used a  few magical red flowers from Homespun collection.

December Inspirations by Marilyn

Hi everyone! Marilyn here with you today to share my last video and projects for Blue Fern Studios.
This last year and a half in the design team was an amazing experience. 
Thanks Valerie and Leslie for giving me the wonderful opportunity to work with products that I love.

I made two layouts and a video tutorial using the Christmas Vintage collections.
I worked with the "Let it snow" paper here that I gave textures with different Blue Fern' stamps and embossing powder.  You will see the creative process in the video tutorial. 

I framed the photo with the Frosty Flake chipboard that I embossed with Icicle embossing powder.

I also embossed the "Its a holly Jolly Christmas chipboard piece.

Christmas Blooms and Soft Blossoms flowers...



Here's the Video Tutorial I hope you find some inspirations...enjoy it!!!

"ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS YOU"

I mixed both collection on this layout.  I love the Holiday Treats Paper side b, and I combined with the Christmas Vintage - Magical paper.  I cut out some images from both collection and a card.

I painted the Stars and Berries chipboard frame with gesso and next with distress ink.

I added the big white flowers from the Christmas Blooms package.

I hope you find some inspirations in my work and because I don't like the "goodbyes" I tell you until next time!!!! xx

December Inspiration By Debbie

Hi everyone!  Debbie here with you today to share my last projects for Blue Fern Studios.   I've enjoyed the last year and a half designing for Blue Fern Studios.  I want to thank Leslie and Valerie for the opportunity given to me to work with all of the amazingly beautiful products.   My final 3 projects include both of the Vintage Christmas collections.

I went in a different direction for my first project and decided to create a Christmas Canvas, a gift for my sister.  I used a mixture of the both of the Vintage Christmas paper collections.
 I worked with an 8x8 canvas, which I covered with the Let It Snow (side B) paper from
Vintage Christmas 2.  Lots of paper layering from both collections and of course chipboard and flowers! Some masking on the background as well as some micro beads.

Under my layering I used the Grand Ornament chipboard which I cut in half and embossed with some Snow and Oatmeal embossing powders.  Lots of gorgeous Blue Fern flowers  including Attic Charm Glitter Roses, Harvest Lilies, and Soft Blossoms.

At the top of the canvas is the upper portion of the Grand Ornament chipboard.

On each side of the canvas I placed the Frosty Flake chipboard which I embossed with Snow embossing powder.

Blue Fern Studios Products:
Paper:  Vintage Christmas 2:  Let It Snow, Holiday Cards
Vintage Christmas:  Auld Lang Syne
Chipboard:  Grand Ornament, Frosty Flake
Embossing Powder:  Snow, Oatmeal
Flowers:  Soft Blossoms, Attic Charm Glitter Roses, Harvest Lilies

My next project features both of the Vintage Christmas paper collections.
Love this picture of my sweet dog, Zoey.  She loves to lay on the couch next to the Christmas tree,  I used Twas The Night paper from Vintage Christmas 2 for my background.  Lots of layering and fussy cutting using Holiday Cards and Jolly from Vintage Christmas 2 and Wonderland from Vintage Christmas.

Here's a close up of the beautiful Blue Fern flowers, Christmas Blooms, Soft Blossoms and Attic Charm Roses.

Here I used the Dream Catcher chipboard, embossed with Snow.

To the left of the photo I placed a past of the Leafy Bough chipboard which I embossed with Verdant and Sea Mist embossing powders.  The title was embossed with a mixture of Poinsettia and Sea Mist.  I added some random stamping with the Forever stamp and added Sea Mist embossing powders.

My final layout features papers from Vintage Christmas 2.
I used the Tree Trimmings paper for the background.  I added some light  inking along with some random stamping, some scattered dots covered in Fire Engine Glitter. Lots of layering under the photo using the Holiday Cards paper. Flowers include Attic Charm Glitter Roses, Christmas Blooms and Soft Blossoms.

On both sides of the photo I used the Floral Lattice Bits chipboard embossed with a mixture of Antique Gold and Golden Bricks.

Beneath the photo is a Tree Toy chipboard piece embossed with Golden Bricks along with some Fools Gold and Fire Engine Glitter.

The title was embossed with a mixture of Antique Gold and Golden Bricks Embossing powders.

Maja Is All About Christmas

Good morning, Blue Fern Studios friends, welcome to the blog today!

Christmas is just a week ahead and Blue Fern Studios has two fabulous Christmas collections, so my today's post is filled with Christmas-themed projects :-)
Let's begin with a Vintage Christmas 2 layout:


I just love the colour combo of this latest collection! Coral pink and mint perfectly match the traditional red, white and green in a fresh,cheerful palette. And plaid is one of my all-time favourite patterns, so I built my composition on the "back" side of the Jolly paper. I added strips of papers on the upper edge of the page and the title word directly on the photo:


I used journaling cards to mat my photo, and then added Christmas Toys and Winter Page Dangles chipboard pieces. I embossed the bauble with Icicle and the heart dangle with Pretty in Pink and Golden Bricks eps.


Here's a little trick: if you heat up the Sea Mist powder a little longer, the colour gets pushed off the edges and a white core begins to show - and you get a nice double tone effect on your piece :-) That's what I did with the Holiday Vine piece, and then added a couple of crystals for some bling. I also used epoxy crystal stickers to make some custom buttons using images from the Tree Trimmings:


I only needed to add the flower cluster with Christmas Blooms and jingle bells :-)



Joy:
Papers: Vintage Christmas 2: Jolly, Tree Trimmings, Twas the Night, Holiday Cards
Chipboard: Holiday Vine, Tree Toys, Winter Page Dangles, Chunky Words
Flowers: Christmas Blooms
EP: Sea Mist, Icicle, In the Pink, Golden Bricks

BFS papers are great for cardmaking too! And here are Christmas cards I made using the Vintage Christmas 2 papers:


Each card features a chipboard piece. Here are the baubles from the Tree Toys set, embossed with 14 Karat ep and matted with mint paper pieces:


In this card I used the Dangled Flake as a frame for the stamped sentiment. The chipboard piece is embossed with Icicle and decorated with small flowers:


And this card presents the gorgeous Frosty Flake piece that I embossed with my custom-made mint tinsel (Icicle, Snow and Sea Mist mixture):



Christmas Cards:
Papers: Vintage Christmas 2: Jolly, Holiday Treats, Holiday Cards, Let It Snow, Twas the Night
Chipboard: Dangled Flake, Tree Toys, Frosty Flake
Flowers: Christmas Blooms
EP: 14 Karat, Icicle, Icicle+Snow+Sea Mist

And finally the layout for which I returned to the original Vintage Christmas collection:


I knew I would want to use the Magical sheet for the layout background the moment I opened the DT box :-)) It's so easy to build up a design with it, I didn't even feel the need to use other papers, just matted the photos with two sides of the Deck the Halls sheet.



For the title I used the Holly Jolly Christmas piece painted with white gesso:


I used two Winter Page Dangles to create a vertical divider on the page. I embossed the star with Ginger and the snowflake with Frozen eps. Then I added some Christmas Blooms, die cut snowflakes and crystal twogs to decorate the photos:



It's a Holly Jolly Christmas:
Papers: Vintage Christmas: Magical, Deck the Halls
Chipboard: Holly Jolly Christmas, Winter Page Dangles
Flowers: Christmas Blooms
EP: Frozen, Ginger

And now it's time to say good bye, as my term on the Blue Fern Studios DT comes to an end. It's been an honour and privilege to work with these great products and share my projects here with you. Thank you, BFS, for this opportunity, and thank you, dear blog visitors, for your visits and comments. See you around!
