It's Reveal Day! My Creative Scrapbook


Hello, My Creative Scrapbook fans! We are excited to bring you the June Kits! As always, I worked with the Limited Edition Kit and it was heavenly, filled to the brim with Blue Fern Studios Tranquility collection, BFS and Prima flowers, and Prima Salvage District ephemera. Two kinds of chipboard and of course, some trims. I've done an unboxing video this month, that I'll share near the end of my post. 

Of course, I'm scrapping my sweet granddaughter and her husband again. They recently had some great photos taken near the beach. I went crazy with texture on this one. You know me, I love my texture! 


I'll let the photos do the talking this time around. Just lots of background work, building of the embellishments and adding texture. 


I cut the Blue Fern Studios Dangle chipboard in two and used it on two different projects. 
As you can see, right now, I am obsessed with art stones. Those came from my stash. 


Loving that Pam has been including cheesecloth in the kits for those of you who don't keep it on hand. It's great for adding as a layer. 


Love the wee bottles from the Salvage District Ephemera pack. I filled this one with microbeads. 


Just a little side view for dimension. 

Here is the link to the unboxing video:

Attic Charm ~ Another Blue Fern Studios release!


Well, Blue Fern Studios has done it again with a gorgeous new vintage collection which includes paper, chipboard, embossing powder, glitter, stamps and flowers! These are some seriously gorgeous flowers, too! 

Check Here to see what retailers will be receiving soon! 

I'm already working with this collection and am head over heels!

Blissful ~ Blue Fern Studios

"Blissful" 

Last but not least for Blue Fern Studios is my example for the Tranquility Reveal. 
My primary background paper is the B side of the Hushed paper. More Hushed paper was utilized as torn photo layers to help build the background along with a Calling Card. I've done some stenciling and added some random mist colors from my stash. 

All my chipboard pieces were treated the same to create a cohesive look. I've again done multiple embossing powder over clear gesso. 


Some Organic Coins were used as a photo layer and embossed with In the Navy, Nutmeg and Garnet Embossing Powder. Fool's Gold Glitter was also added in for sparkle. The Scalloped Border chipboard is just barely peeking out on each side of the photo. My Blissful title was treated the same as well. 
I enjoyed using the new Tranquility Flowers on this page, so added them generously! 



A better look at that Scalloped Border chipboard and Blissful title. 
You can see bits of the Making Plans stamping that was done as I was preparing my background. I've used black splattered paint as a finishing touch. I also added some black dots to my lilies to make them more life-like. 



Just wanted to share one more image of these gorgeous Tranquility Roses and Lilies. 

Blue Fern Studios products used:
Paper: Tranquility Hushed and Calling Cards
Chipboard: Organic Coins, Blissful, Jubilation, Patience set, Scalloped Border
Stamp: Making Plans
Embossing Powder: In The Navy, Nutmeg, Garnet
Glitter: Fool's Gold
Flowers: Tranquil Blooms, Tranquil Roses and Lilies

That's it for this month! 
I hope you've found something to inspire you!
