love the life you live

 Hello there creative people ☺
Even though the Your Creative Wings shop is closed for the time being, I just wanted to share this page I created using some of their chipboard.    I've used a piece of chipboard in a number of different ways.

 This Sprig Flourish reminded me of rolling waves and I felt it suited a 'beachy' kind of page.
First up, I've used the piece as a mask with some colour spray mist.
Next, I've used the negative piece as a stencil.  With texture paste, I've added in dimension to the page.
And then I've used the actual piece as a main feature.  I've given it a water colour look and added in some script stamping.
I really love how it's come together.

 Here's a close up of the flourish.

 I've made some faux flairs with some of the chipboard and epoxy stickers.
These chipboard pieces are called Love Candy.
I've kept them raw because of the little words and fine line details - I've just placed an epoxy sticker over the top to create the flair.  A fun embellishment! ♥

And my title: Love the Life you Live - such a great line.
I've painted it white and added in script stamping.

photo tradition

 Hello all, I hope your holiday season is going great.  We've just come back from a four week road trip across Australia - I'm sure you will be seeing lots of travel photo's popping up on my pages soon ☺
Today I'm sharing this festive page that I created for Your Creative Wings!

 I received this great piece of chipboard in my pack: Jingle all the Way - and decided to use it for this fun page of my boys.  We try to do a picture every year of them together - it's becoming a bit of a tradition and I'm glad they still like to pose for me ☺

 I've used my water colour paints - shading in with white, green and red, keeping to the more traditional colours.  Then I've added some red glitter to the baubles and some crystal glitter to parts of the wording.  It gives a nice sparkly to the page!

The small heart and arrow chipboard comes from the Been there done that Polaroid Frame set.

There's lots of lovely chipboard pieces in the shop for your Christmas pages!

bow and arrow - your creative wings.

 Hello all!!  I was delighted to see this bow and arrow set in my pack of chipboard from Your Creative Wings!  My son has a bow and arrow so I knew it wouldn't take me long to create a page with this fun set.

 The chipboard has some lovely details on it, which you won't want to cover up with any mediums, so I've left it raw.

 I've also used some of the Mesh Panel as a feature for behind the photo and pattern papers. 

 I have enough left-over to create another page!

today - Your Creative Wings

 Hello there, another share using some fabulous chipboard from Your Creative Wings.

 Today I'm using the Square Charm Set - I'm using some of the assorted squares in different sizes and also the larger pieces.

 I love giving the chipboard colour, especially to match in with the bright photo!  I've gone with red, blue and white!
Each piece has been hand painted with the different colours.  On the white, I've added some glitter paint to give it some sparkle.

I still have quite a few of the different sized squares left-over, so I'll be sure to use them on another page soon ☺

hello - your creative wings

 Hello, there!   This is my first post for Your Creative Wings as a Creative Team member☺  I've been having a wonderful time playing with the chipboard and am sharing this page today.

 I've used two pieces of chipboard for this page:
Feathers on a stick and a Doily
I love a banner style design, so the feather chipboard was perfect.  The chipboard was cut in two so I could place a piece on each side of the photo.  I've stamped onto the chipboard with versa-mark ink and a doily stamp, then painted over with a DecoArt sealer.

 To make the doily a little feature on the page, I've punched out a circle in pattern paper and added it to the chipboard.  Then I've made a faux flair by punching out a smaller circle from pattern paper and added a clear raised sticker.

 Here's a closer look at the feathers with the stamping.  The sealer I've used has is crystal glitter by DecoArt and gives a nice shiny finish to the chipboard.

 

Pop over to the Your Creative Wings shop online and view all the fabulous chipboard.





I have another page to share very soon.
Thanks for popping by ♥
