March Inspiration by Debbie Burns

Hi everyone!  Debbie back with you today to share my March layouts.   I have two created with the In The Mood Collection and the third one featuring the Happy Accident collection.

"All  You Need Is Love"
 I used the Attracted paper for my background.  Love the beautiful colors and details. Michelle designed such a beautiful collection! I added a light spray of some peony mist to the background along with some pieces from Lace 12.  

Lot of layering behind the photo using the Optimistic and Dreamy papers 
along with the printed chipboard. The chipboard pieces behind the photo were embossed with Blue Fern Ivory Embossing Power, and the leaves with Avocado and sprinkled with some Meadow Seedlings. 



I used a butterfly stamp and embossed two butterflies, one in ebony and the other in Pink Dust.  I placed lots of flowers around photo from Apricot Blooms, Moody Florals and Moody Blooms.

I applied some white mircobeads from my stash all around the layout and added some Blue Fern Tickled Seedlings and Pink Pearl Glitter.

January Inspirations plus a VIDEO tutorial by Catherine Giguère

Hello Blue Fern Studios fans! I am thrilled to write my first blog post as Blue Fern Studios Design Team member! It's a dream come true for me!

Let me first introduce me. I am 39 years old and I live in Quebec City, Canada. I'm a 4th grade teacher and a mother of two children of 6 and 4 years old that are the main stars of my layouts. I do scrapbooking for 11 years now and this is my passion. I love doing romantic layouts full of flowers. I also love mixed media.

Here's my first projects as Blue Fern Studios Design Team member.

'Follow Your Heart'


For this first layout, I made a step-by-step video tutorial that you can watch below. I used the paper Heartland XOXO to start this project. First, I made a textured background with a stencil and modeling paste. I used yellow and caramel inks to add colors. I also add details with the 'Making Plans' and 'Vintage Phrase' stamps.


Then, I embossed my chipboards 'Crackle Bits' with BFS Imagine Ink Embossing Powder 'In the Navy'. I used 4 pieces of this chipboard under my picture. I cut one piece to make the design I wanted. I used 3 others papers of the Heartland collection to put under my picture. 


I embossed my title 'Follow Your Heart' with BFS Imagine Ink Embossing Powder 'Honey'.


Then, I glued many Blue Fern Studios blue, yellow, white and turquoise flowers.


Here's the link to see the video tutorial:

I did my second layout on the gorgeous paper 'Wonderland' of the collection Vintage Christmas. I first did a subtile tone on tone background with modeling paste, stencil and brown inks. Then, I stamped with brown ink some words with the 'Vintage Phrase' stamp set. 


I embossed the 'Floral Lattice Bits' chipboards with BFS Imagine Ink Embossing Powder 'Garnet' to add a little bit of colour. I used pieces of Vintage Christmas 'Greeting Cards' paper and Vintage Christmas 2 'Holiday Cards' to put under my picture. 


I embossed the chipboard 'Circle Vine' with BFS Imagine Ink Embossing Powder 'Ginger' and my title 'Magnifique' from the French Adjectives 1 chipboard set with BFS Imagine Ink Embossing Powder 'Garnet'.


Then, I add many Blue Fern Studios flowers.

Vintage Christmas inspiration by Marie-Eve Bernard

Hello,

It's my last post here.  The years flies so fast.  I was thrilled to be on such a wonderful Desing Team: a dream came true!  I enjoy every moment of it!  So, I wanted to inspired you a last time with the wonderful Vintage Christmas Collections.  I love Christmas and it's magic.  I add a lost of pleasure to work with those two absolutely gorgeous Christmas collections.

It's a Holly Jolly Christmas:

I use the Let it snow paper for my background.  I had laces between the layers of papers for a Vintage look. Just add a little bit of green watercolor to makes the layers pop.  



 For the frame, I first paint it green.  Then, I add glue to the berries and add the Fire engine glitters.  I did the same with the bow but with the Caribbean glitters. 


I simply embossed my title chipboard with the clover embossing powder.  The color is just perfect!

Noel:

On this second layout, I wanted a snow effect on my chipboards.  I first cover them with white gesso. Then I add snow effect texture paste and glass bead gel.


I use the Greeting cards paper and cut the merry christmas and the tree image.  I add snow effect to my paper too.  The Christmas blooms were the perfect addition to the layout. I add snow on the flowers.

My last layout is not with the traditional christmas palette of colours  but I love the soft feel of it.
I use the Holiday card twice.  One for my background and the other, I cut out some of the cards.


The soft blooms were perfect for this layout.  I just add them some snow effect.



My title was emboss twice:  First in pearl then in It's a girl.  It came from the Winter titles chipboard set.


All my snow flakes were painted with a clear iridescent ink.  I enjoy the result.  It just add a discrete shinning effect.

Three Christmas Layouts with Karine

Hi there,

It's Karine here today to share with you three Christmas layouts! 

I must admit I'm not a big fan of Christmas scrapbooking, but when I recieved my last Blue Fern Studios package, I was thrilled! Both Vintage Christmas and Vintage Christmas 2 collections are simply wonderful! So let's start with my first layout.

Twinkle


I started out with the Deck The Halls paper from Vintage Christmas. I wanted to go with a traditional color combo with this one, and the red in the paper immediately spoke to me. I also used some of the cards from the Greeting Cards paper, also from Vintage Christmas, to layer under my photo. 


I used the beautiful Tree Toys chipboards on my layout. I embossed it with Imagine Ink Lime embossing powder. While the powder was still hot, I sprinkled some Imagine Ink Vintage Gold glitter. I love the beautiful effect it gave.



To embellish around my photo, I used the beautiful Attic Charm Glitter Roses, as they come with beautiful gold glitter and the colors matched perfectly my layout. I also used two Harvest Lilies.


Finally, my title piece comes from the Winter Titles set. I treated it the same way as the other chipboards.



Magical



My second layout is called Magical. For this one, I wanted a more elegant look, so I choose the Wonderland paper, from Vintage Christmas. I aslo used a piece of the Calling Cards paper from Vintage Christmas 2 to layer underneath my photo.


I treated my background with golden brown ink. I used the Forever stamps set to add a little bit of interest to the background.


I used the Winter Flakes chipboards on my layout. I covered them with silver embossing powder. 


My title piece comes from the Winter Titles set. I covered it with ginger Imagine Ink embossing powder.


Sparkle


I went a bit over the top with my last layout. I started with the Let it Snow paper from the Vintage Christmas 2 collection. I layered pieces of the 'Twas the Night and Calling Cards papers, also from the Vintage Christmas 2 collection.



My layout is built around the beautiful Bubbles and Bows chipboard. I treated it with an embossing powder containing some green and gold flakes.


All through my flower cluster, I used the Berry Stems chipboards. They were covered with Imagine Ink Sea Mist embossing powder. 


Look at this beautiful Santa image! Isn't it lovely?


Amongst all flowers, I used one of the Christmas Blooms. You can see it in the picture above.


My title piece, part of the Winter Titles set again, is covered with Imagine Ink Ginger embossing powder and while the powder was still hot, I sprinkled some Imagine Ink Vintage Gold glitter. 

I hope my layouts help you catch a little bit of Christmas spirit.
