May Inspirations by Jennifer Jacques

Hi all Blue Fern Studios fans!
It's Jennifer here, with my 3 layouts as May inpsirations!

First of all, I'll start the month with a layout with "Happy Accident".


I choose to work with "Lucky" paper as my background.
I added a bit of texture paste through a stencil and displayed my picture on a die cut doilie.  You can see in the clustering below that I also tucked in two pieces of Checker bits chipboard that I have embossed with the Honey embossing powder.


My chipboard title is from the Remnants collection and here, this is the Sunlight Rose embossing powder that I've chose to embossed with.  You'll see underneath the Fern Leaves embossed with Green Ivory embossing powder.  Did you see the beautiful lilies from the Wanderlust Lilies set? They really are my favorite Blue Fern flowers. On the next corner, the white flower is from Homespun blossoms set :)


Below, I've made some ornements out of velum paper with the Texture circles stamp and Ivory embossing powder.  I've put together one clustering on each side of my focal point with 
Apricot blooms and some stuff from my own stash.



So, here is the list of the products I've used on that layout

Papers: Collection Happy Accident
-Lucky

Chipboards
-Checker bits 
-Dream
-Fern leaves

Stamps
-Texture circle

Embossing Powder
-Honey
-Sunlight rose
-Green Ivory

Flowers

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



Second layout with In the moods collection.


This time, this is B-side of "Dreamy" paper that is my background.  Clear gesso, some sprays as watercolor effect and texture paste through a stencil again.  You can see below that I've displayed my picture on a piece of Mémoire "post cards" paper.


On the left of my picture, there is some chipboards.  The Flutter page dangles is embossed with Stormy skies, a beautiful blue-grey color.  Really love that metallic effect.  Right on the background, a Petite boutique Frame which is colored with some wax.


Here. my title is a piece from  Remnants collection chipboard that I've cut to use only the word "You".  I've tried very hard to show you the beautiful color of Vintage Jade glitter but I've failed.  It's magnificent, believe me! 💙💚  Again, some beautiful lilies from Wanderlust set.


Here, a Christmas blooms, with a pearl in her center.
Some sequins, flair and love quotes from my stash.  
Finally, to add some texture, some Silver seedlings  in different spots and some stamping with Tattered Newsprint stamp and permanent ink.


Again, here is the list of the products I've used on that layout

 Papers: Collection In the mood and Mémoire
-Dreamy (b-side)
-Post cards

Chipboards
-Petite Boutique Frame
-Flutter page dangles
-You (a part of Remnants title chipboard)

Stamps
-Tattered newsprint 

Embossing Powder
-Stormy skies

Glitter
-Vintage Jade

Flowers
-Wanderlust lilies
-Christmas blooms

Seedlings
-silver

**********************
Finally, my last layout with In the mood again.


A soft layout, with "Amused" paper as the background.  No mixed media here.

The tag on the left was cut out of "Blissful" b-side paper.    My title, from the French words set is embossed with the delicate and sooooooo gorgeous  Pixie Dust embossing powder.  My set up is displayed on a big piece of a chipboard panel (which is no longer available, sorry!) that I've simply paint in black for a dramatic effect.


On the right, chipboard flower was simply stained in black and colored with wax.



Finally, to ornate the lower corner of my picture, Blue Fern Studios flowers :)
The white one is from Christmas blooms (but I've replaced the center to match my layout), the pink one is from Garden Blooms (here, I've put a pearl in the middle) and, the black one, a beautiful Dark Tropic lilies... A piece of "Pensive" paper in the upper right corner :)


It's a minimalist layout so I finished with some flairs and love quotes and that was it!

 Here is the products I've used on that layout this time

 Papers: Collection In the mood
-Blissful (b-side)
-Pensive (b-side)

Embossing Powder
-Pixie dust

Flowers
-Dark tropic lilies
-Christmas blooms
-Garden blooms

Seedlings

So this is it!
Hope to inspired you and see you in June!

Fairytale 

 

For my second layout of mont, I chose Blessing paper from Happy Accident collection.

 

The main chipboard on this layout is Barb's Medallion, I've cut it in two pieces, because it's tiny and I wanted to see it on either side of the photo. I embossed it with a mix of new 
colors from Spring Parade collection, Morning Sun and Speckled Mint. 
 Below all element , I placed two frames that I've create 
with cardstock and two pieces of Fortuity paper.


 

I chose to work with peach flowers on this layout, for this I've taked
Happy Roses from Happy Accident and Chesterville Blooms from Chesterville Collection.
I know it's not from Blue fern Studio products but I really love my tiny message bottle... from my hand :) Just a few beads and a small roll paper ... 

 

My chipboard title Fairytale is emboss with the same mixt than 
my chipboard Barb's Medallion, Morning Sun and Speckled Mint coordinated with Spring Parade collection.

March projects by Tartine Peluche

Hi Everyone!

Today it's my turn and I'm so excited to share with you my new projects.

For beginning, here is my first layout..
I used a paper from Chesterville collection.
I worked a lot on my background again, and I really love the result.

-It's your story-


The main chipboard is Rose Wreath which I cut into parts.
I embossed with the Snow embossing powder.

I wanted to give impression that the chipboard flowers were packed in fabrics.
I use coarse fabric jute. All the background is created from pearls and small rocks such as a packing full of jewelry. Just add some flowers harmoniously and the trick is played.

This chipboard is the rest of the Spirit of Heartland which I used last month on another layout. I simply embossed with Sand & Sea Embossing Powder after putting white gesso.
For this page I wanted to use white flowers, so I chose that of Heartland Blossom tissue.

Blue Fern Studios products I've used:
Paper:
Chesterville - Whitford
Chipboards:
-
Rose Wreath
- Rose Frame
- Spirit of Heartland
Imagine Ink Embossing Powder:
-
Sand & Sea
- Snow
Flowers:Heartland Blossom

------------------------------
For the second layout you can see my face, a page I made with everything I love.
This page is really me a condensed of my style. Hope you love it.

- Bonheur -

I started my layout with Generation from Attic Charms collection.
I created my background with Crackles Texture and Serendipity stamps. I put some texture paste and work with inks. A few small rocks and beads an a little bit of mika flakes and some bits of thread gave the result of my background ... and you know everything.

I chose the perfect flower, that of the collection Harvest Lilies.

For chipboard, I wanted a small frame to accompany that of paste fimo that I made.
The kit Sweet & Lucky was perfect to use as a frame; I used the '' Lucky ''. I started by coating it with white gesso and used a thermal powder ( heat & stick powder ) When heated to heat gun this powder becomes a super adherent for glitter. So for this one I put the powder and then Pyrite Glitters.
My Title comes from the French Words kit. I chose Bonheur ( Happiness ) because it reflected well the energy of the photo.



Blue Fern Studios products I've used:

Paper:Attic Charms - Generation
Chipboards:-Sweet & Lucky
- French Words
Imagine Ink Embossing Powder:
-
Oatmeal
Imagine Ink Glitter:- Pyrite

------------------------------

And the last one for this month, my lovely dream catcher.
I really love this layout I'm really proud of the result.

- Believing -

I used Preston from Chesterville paper collection.
Like the other pages I made mybackground in the same way.
Texture paste, paints, inks and small embellishments.
I used two chipboards to create my dream catcher. The Jeweled frame and the dream catcher.
I altered them separately and then tied them together with a rope.
For chipboard Dream Catcher I simply covered with black gesso and used a mauve and opalescent fushia paint. Then I added some beads and rhinestones. The other chipboard, the jeweled frame, I made it simpler. Just a little powder to emboss silver on the chain parts and opalescent gray paint.


I used the pink flowers of Courtship Lane Collection, Courtship Roses.

I added a last chipboard, one from the Spring Trinkets kit, I worked like the Dream Catcher, black gesso and purple opal paint and fushia.

Paper:Chesterville - Preston
