Sharon's May Pages!

Hi Everyone!

I can't believe that May is here already.  I am very excited to be sharing my layouts with you this month!  

Here are my 3 scrapbook pages . . .  


 My First Layout:  Home Sweet Home




I used the Homespun collection for my first page.  Isn't it gorgeous?  I love the flip side of "Tea Time"(as seen below) and used it as the basis for my first layout:






Here is my 12 x 12 page:






I picked our family's Christmas card photo from 2016, which is one of my all-time favorite photos of our family.  This gorgeous paper compliments it beautifully, I think.  

A close up:



And a different view:




I especially enjoyed embellishing the raw chipboard floral/flourish wreath with embossing powder and glitter; and using the Homespun Printed Chipboard on this page.  I mixed things up by adding some Remnants Blooms here, too.

Sharon's March Pages!

Hi Everyone!

It's so nice to be here again today!  I am excited to share 3 layouts that I made for March.  ♥

Without further ado, here are my projects . . .


Layout #1:  Memories. . .

Featuring Homespun:


I have been going through old photos and attempting to organize them.  In the process, I have found beloved pictures that I want to scrap!  This one is of my oldest daughter, Katie, and is a definite favorite of mine.  I loved telling her, through this scrapbook page, to keep her beautiful inner light shining!

I used the beautiful "Homemade" paper from the Blue Fern Studios Homespun Collection and mounted it on the Wanderlust "Road Trip" paper because I loved the newspaper look.  And I had an amazing time framing the photo with the beautiful swirly chipboard that I embossed with Goldenrod embossing powder.  

Here are some close ups:




Here's my Blue Fern Product List:
Paper: Homespun "Homemade," backed with Wanderlust "Road Trip"
Chipboard: Ornate Wreath, In the Mood Printed Chipboard Shapes, Homespun Printed Chipboard Shapes
Embossing Powder: Goldenrod
Flowers: Happy Roses
Seedlings: Twig
Lace:  Ivory braided trim


♥   ♥   ♥   ♥   ♥   ♥   ♥   ♥   ♥   ♥


Layout #2:  Best Friends . . .

Featuring In the Mood:


Again, as I went through my photos, I found an old one that I absolutely love.  It is one of my twin sister and me when we were toddlers.  Just look at those hair cuts!!  I love the way we were holding hands.

For this page I used "In the Mood" papers, flowers and printed chipboard!  I also used Shabby Brick Bits chipboard that I embossed and spruced up with some ink.

Here are some close ups for you to see:




And here is my Blue Fern Product List:
Paper: In the Mood "Peaceful;" backed with In the Mood "Ecstatic"
Chipboard: Shabby Brick Bits, In the Mood Printed Chipboard Shapes,
Embossing Powder: Black Sand, Baby Pink

Layout #3: Family is a Circle of Love . . .

Featuring Amber & Apricot:


For my third and final layout, I used a recent photo that I took of my family with my tripod and timer at a nearby park!  We love this park and go for walks there all the time.  This photo was also used for our annual Christmas card.

I featured the amazing Amber and Apricot Collection here - it's so beautiful and a dream to work with.  Lace 9C is absolutely beautiful, too!

Here are some close ups so you can get a better look:




My Blue Fern Product List:

Merry Christmas Finn by Vija Anton

Hello Blue Fern fans.  Today we post the final layout from our December Blue Fern Fan of the Month, Vija Anton.  We have fallen in love with each of her unique projects this month, and can't wait for you to see this one.  Vija, it has been such a joy to have you create with us this month.  You have given us and our readers some awesome inspiration, and we were able to give you some mojo to begin creating again!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

This is my last layout as Blue Fern's Fan of the month. Thank you Blue Fern Studios for giving me this opportunity to work with your beautiful products. This layout features a facebook friend's dog, Finn. I will be sending her this layout so I hope she likes it! 




For the background I used the Magical paper and used the Wonderland and Homegrown papers for some fussy cutting. I love how these two collections compliment each other so well. 




 I have created dimension on my page by layering the elements. A double layer of foam tape under the cut out frame helps it sit nice and flat on top of the chipboard and that gorgeous lace.



I added touches of glitter here and there to give my layout a real Christmasy feel. 
For me Christmas = glitter and sparkle!!!! 



Blue Fern products used were:
Vintage Christmas papers: Magical and Wonderland
Homespun papers: Homegrown
Vintage Christmas printed chipboard
Chipboard: Holiday Vine and Folkart Frame 
Glitter: Vintage gold and Christmas pear

Pop and Grandma's House by Lisa Landry

The gorgeous Blue Fern Studios new Homespun paper collection has such a nice nostalgic feel.  The Homestead page immediately brought back wonderful memories of going to pop & Grandma's House.

I usually have a photo as the focal point on my layouts, but I did something I've never done before and here is what I came up with.



There are so many wonderful cards on the Calling Cards page. I went all out, but hey, they fit the theme of my layout - Grandma's fabulous cooking!   The center focal area is a 6x6 piece from the backside of the page Picturesque.  I made this into a pocket using foam tape on three sides and then placed it in the center of the page.  I decorated it using cut outs from the Calling Cards page and some cute flowers. 
 
Blue Fern's Scalloped Border chipboard is heat embossed with their lovely new color GoldilocksTo coordinate with the layout, I lightly brushed it with white gesso and added some mini pink and mint roses.



Next I printed (using a piece from the page Craftysome memories I have as a very young child going to Pop & Grandma's.  My journaled card fits perfectly inside the pocket.  I punched & inked the edge for femininity.  A small wooden clothes pin is decorated with words from the Calling Cards page and some gold nail heads.



Here is the front of my journaled card.  You can read the journaling on my blog HERE



 On the back of the card I adhered a laminated photo of Pop & Grandma Romero celebrating their 50th Anniversary.  This is exactly how I remember them.  Notice that the backside of the clothes pin has the rest of the sentiment on it.



I'm speechless when it comes to the stunning wedding lace from Blue Fern.  I just HAD to use it on this page!  After all, not only does it look super fabulous, but it significantly resembles Pop & Grandma's Golden Anniversary  How perfect is that?



Now it's time for my most favorite part of the decorating process....creating beautiful flower clusters.  I used Blue Fern's Christmas Blooms and they are gorgeous. The Blue Fern Seedlings I used inside some of the flowers look fantastic don't they?



The backside of Blue Fern's Timeless collection page Maçonnerie was used to die cut the piney leaves.  I just LOVE the house printed on this Homestead page!

Homespun paper collection  Homestead (for main layout page)
