Jingle all the way

Hello and Happy New Year all, Chantelle here, I hope you are finding some time to create for yourself after such a busy time of year!!  I have a festive page to share today.

Jingle all the way
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!

 


Til next time - happy creating.

For the Boys

Hello there, Chantelle here to share more layouts using some fabulous chipboard. 

Hello Darling
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 from this set, so I'll be sure to use them on another page soon ☺

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

Bow and Arrow
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! 






Til next time, happy creating!
