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.

I embossed the chipboard pieces behind the photo with a mixture of Blue Fern Ivory and Petal Embossing powders.  The leaves were embossed with Blue Fern Green Ivory. I added flowers from Moody Blooms, Apricot Blooms and Harvest Lilies.

I fussy cut flowers from the Ecstatic paper and tucked them behind the photo. 

The title is from the In The Mood printed chipboard.

In the Mood & Happy Accident layouts by France Ringuette

All you Need is Love - Layout #1

What can I say other than I am in LOVE with the new collection In the Mood, Artisan collection by Blue Fern Studios. The hardest challenge was choosing what paper to use for my first layout as they are all spectacular.

I chose to use Attracted in the collection pack for this beautiful wedding picture of my friend Marina and her husband David. I was inspired by the lovely floral prints and the greens that would match perfectly with the background of this beautiful picture.


First step was to add with a stencil, light molding paste, creating small hearts on my background, then I added onto the molding paste Baby Pink embossing powder and heated this up. I love adding my embossing powders on my papers.

Then I covered a clock chipboard with white gesso and heat embossed it with Pixie Dust embossing powder. I love that mix of gold and pink. It is a spectacular new color that has become a recent favorite.


The new printed chipboard title was perfect for this page, I wanted it centered under my picture. Then I built my layering of flowers, lace, stamp prints and die-cuts around it.


Did you notice the circles ? They are  from the Texture Circles stamp collection. I stamped them on white cardstock and cut them out to add as embellishments to my page.

How are you finding that beautiful lace under my title? I found it gave the layout such a classy look.

In this next picture, you can get a closer look at the new flowers and the stamped circle. Notice that small pink lace flower? It's from the lace 10 set.


In the last 2 images, a better look at the Pink Topaz seedlings:

    Sweetheart- Layout #2

    A friend of mine has the cutest little daughter and had some amazing picture taken to capture her first birthday. I just love this picture with her daughter in a tutu dress stepping on Brittany's bright red shoes. This picture was my inspiration for the layout. I wanted to play with reds and light pinks.

    My starting point was the new In the Mood collection, I chose the Mellow paper for my background. I just found that little red bird oh so cute.

    Next steps was to add some layers of paper. I played with Ecstatic and Pensive from the same collection


    Here is a closer look at the photo area. As you might have noticed, I used some of the In the Mood Printed Chipboards for decorative elements. 

    I made a die-cut out of the Ecstatic paper, love that red tone.

    The Turkish Bits chipboard is heat embossed with the Pure Red embossing powder


     I wanted to add more red to my layout so I stamped and embossed in Pure Red this beautiful Butterfly from the Butterflies stamp collection.

    Under my flowers you can see some touches of lace 4 and some Pink Topaz seedlings

    CUTE- layout #3

    For this layout, I started playing around with the cute bird on the brand chipboard. I had this beautiful daycare picture of Emma that was just perfect to build a nice soft page.


    I build this chipboard in 3 layers. First step was to emboss the branch and leaves with Green Ivory embossing powder. Second step was to add a layer of glue with a fine tip dispenser then add the Meadow and Twig seedlings. Once that was dry, I then embossed the bird with Frozen embossing powder.

    Oooh this turned out just lovely.


    Here is a closer look at the bird and leaves.


    Next step was the frame, I wanted it to melt into the background, so I chose Oatmeal as my embossing color for this one.


    Last and final step was the ornament cluster. I used a flower from heartland blossoms and dark tropic lilys collections.

    I enjoy adding pieces of lace to my projects and Lace #4 is my favorite.

    January Inspirations and Video Tutorial by Lanette

    Good Morning Everyone!

    I hope your year is off to an amazing start! I must say that I am pretty happy with the way my year is starting out, I am super excited to be joining this amazing team! I really can't wait to share my layouts with you...

    But before I do let me introduce myself....


     My name is Lanette Erickson I live in southeastern Michigan with my husband two sassy daughters and one crazy doberman. I’m an ex-banker turned stay at home mommy and one crazy crafter.  I have always been a crafty person, but my love of scrapbooking began a little over 13 years ago. Over the years my passion has evolved from pure paper to more of a mixed media affair.  I truly love all mediums and I am happiest when my hands are messy, I love to experiment with new products and try new techniques.
    I’m not sure I have a scrappy style, I always try to showcase the picture I a scrapping. But If I had to define it I would say Romantic and playful.

    I am super excited to be part of the Blue Fern Design Team! I hope that I my art will help inspire you to get your hands messy and create something you love!

    You can find me here:
