Creative Embellishments

Today I'm up on the Creative Embellishments blog and I have a page for you using some of the awesome chipboard that they have available.  I've used the Leafy Vine Frame,  the Happy Word Set  and the Distressed Crackle Stamp.
 

 

Some close ups of the chipboard.  I have treated the frame with Heidi Swapps Citron stray.  The Word set I sprayed with red spray and then added glitter to it.

   And the chipboard and stamp that I used are:

Creative Embellishments plus Scrap Africa

 Today we start a new challenge over at Creative Embellishments.  Please jump over to the blog to see all the inspiration that the Design Team has to show off.  Here's my take on it - I was inspired by the colors and the fairies.

 

And some close ups!

I was also asked by Denise Van Deventer to be a Guest Designer over at Scrap Africa this month so this is what I created as my take on her sketch.

Stuck?Sketches and Creative Embellishments

Here I am today with another layout using the Creative Embellishment's chipboard combined with the current Stuck?Sketches sketch.  I have these wonderful pictures of my granddaughter, Madison, who is graduating this month.
Here's the sketch:

 And some closeups.  I painted the chipboard with gesso first, then with acrylic paint and then dabbed some metallic rub-ons on it.

Here's the chipboard I used on it - two full flourishes - cut up some of the Flourish 12 set.

CSI Case File #170 and Creative Embellishments

 Another fun week with Creative Embellishments and CSI - love that I'm on both their Design Teams! This week we have a fun Case File with some bright fun colors for summer.  Here's how I solved it using pictures from one of our summer rituals which is a family birthday party at the end of July for all the guy's birthday (3) that are right there at the end of the month.  We meet at Becky's (step-daughter's) for a day of family fun and sun. I've used some of the Celebrate Words chippies and also one of the Flourish 27.  Then I cut a section of the Triangle Panel and backed it with papers and embellishments.

  

Here's a few close ups of the chipboard.  The flourish I sprayed with Heidi Swapps Color Shine in Citron (love this) and the Words I painted red and then added red glitter to.  The Triangle panel I painted red and blue and added embellishments and patterned paper.

CSI and Creative Embellishments

Hi, it's Debbie Standard up today. This month Creative Embellishments has teamed up with CSI to solve some Case Files!  This week we are solving Case File #169 together with Em Stafrace's sketch.  I'm on both Design Teams so this has worked for me very well!  These are some pictures of my son and daughter  ( the youngest) telling how hard it is to get a good picture of them together!  I have used some words from the Special Moments Word Set together with the Flourish 10 (one of my favorites!)

Creative Embellishments and Sketchabilities

This month we have combined Creative Embellishments with Sketchabilities. Here's my layout using some of my granddaughter's graduation pictures.First up here's the Sketchabilities sketch we used together with the monthly Mood Board for the monthly challenge at Creative Embellishments. I took my inspiration from the photograph from the blue sky and the flowers.  For my page I have used the Flourish Set 10, the Stars in my Universe Frame and the Lamp Post Set.  For the twist I added a heart from the wood veneer Heart Set.

 Here's some close ups.  Here I painted the frame gold then added some gold glitter to the stars. 

 On the leaves first I painted them green and then smeared some metallic rub ons on them.

 And here's the chipboard I used:

Creative Embellishments

I'm up today on the Creative Embellishment's Blog and I have a layout for you I did with one of Em's sketches and pictures of my son and daughter who attended a friend of Brandy's from nursing school's wedding.  They had a ball - Brandy caught the bouquet!  Brandy is well know for her dancing (since she's danced since she was three) and her younger brother is right behind her!  I used several pieces of the Creative Embellishment's chipboard here: the Square Chain Border, the Love Notes Wood Veneer, and the Moment's Word Set and the Flourish Set 10. I love the Flourish Set 10 set because it's easy to cut this into smaller pieces when you don't need a large set. I painted the Green with Heidi Swapp's Citron Color Shine.  The hearts were painted pink and then I added Doodle Bug glitter.  The Embrace I painted gold then sprinkled some Martha Stewart gold glitter on it although the picture makes it look like different colored glitter - it's all gold IRL.
   

 Here's some close ups - like I said before the Embrace is only gold glitter but it looks different photographed.

 The Heidi Swapp Color Shine give these just the right contrast.

 And here's close ups of all the chipboard and veneer I used:
