One Collection, 3 Different Ways {Blue Fern Studios}

Hi! I cannot believe it's been a week since I've posted! I'm so busy, I cannot seem to keep my head straight. I will be able to share some news (non-scrap related) with you soon hopefully, but for now I have to keep it to myself as I really want things to work out!

But anyways, we have a LONG post to get through today- I have THREE Blue Fern Studios projects to share~! And for each of them, I've used the gorgeous new Prima Lyric collection- but created three different looks :)- this is definitely not the last you will see me use this range- it's amazing!!

So let's get started~!!

"Lilah"
This project was created on an 8"x10" canvas. I love this beautifully soft photo of my niece Lilah, so I wanted to create a romantic piece with lots of stamping and bursts of color. Let's take a closer look at the Blue Fern Studios chipboard used here:

I've used pink crackle paint on the Princess Window piece before smattering with microbeads. Then I topped it off with a piece cut from the Symphony Border, misted it, and stamped to correlate with my bakcground.

I LOVE keys. I've painted this one from the Vintage Keys set with gesso, applied a very light pink mist to it, and then stamped over top. Then I brushed on some Stickles, added the heart gem and some tulle at the top.

This Vintage Locks piece was also lightly misted and then stamped.

Blue Fern Studios Products Used:

Princess Window 074578

Vintage Locks 074783

Vintage Keys 075032


"Our Bond"
My second project is a layout, featuring how easy it is to use chipboard in its raw fashion, which I love to do! 

The Calligraphic Border provides dimension, texture, and detail to the layering beneath my photos. I felt that by leaving it raw, it really stood out like I wanted it to :).

"Hello" {Tag}
My final project today is this tag. I love the smaller chipboard pieces for projects like these! So much fun to put together :)

I've combined a dress form from the Miss Taylor Set, as well as the larger butterfly out of the Brigitte Butterfly set to dress up this tag. I used a combination of Glimmer Mist and embossing powder to set the base of my dress form. I then added the tulle skirt and some seed beads for the bodice. Finally, the little heart accent was put in place.

For the butterfly, I used some light misting and embossing powder as well, before adding my stamping. Finally I trimmed up the tops of the wings with some microbeads.

Thanks so very much for stopping by the blog today! I hope you enjoyed my projects- and that you're inspired to go out and get some BFS chipboard for yourself!

Take care and see you again soon :),
