September Projects with Belinda Spencer

Happy Sunday!!

Belinda here today to share a handful of my recent layouts created using some of the most fabulous Imaginarium Designs chipboard pieces.

I have five...yes FIVE...layouts to share today so let's get stuck in!

'Create Your Own Dreams'

I created this layout using case file no. 208 over at CSI. I painted all of my chipboard pieces with heavy duty white gesso. I applied Watering Can Archival Ink over the top of the title to co-ordinate with the gorgeous Cocoa Vanilla Studios Love Always papers that I used.

IDT0010 Balloons Board

IDS0063 Large Compass and Needle

'Believe in Your Dreams'

This layout was created for the September challenge at Kraft Plus Challenges using a stunning melon colour palette.

Again for this layout, I painted all of my chipboard pieces with heavy duty white gesso. Iadded each shape piece to a cute cluster and layered on some wood veneer pieces (Please note that the wood veneer pieces are not by Imaginarium Designs) as well as some sweet epoxy dots. I used some super pretty papers from Cocoa Vanilla Studios as well as cute cloud embellishments from Charm's Creations.

IDDL0018 Loolabelle's Nested Arrows

IDDL0022 Loolabelle's Chevrons #2

'Mischief'

This was another layout I created playing along with CSI case file no. 209. You may have noticed a bit of a theme with my chipboard treatment so far. Yep. These pieces are also painted with white gesso. It is my go to product for altering my chipboard. At least I am consistent!

(Please note that all wood veneer pieces are non Imaginarium Designs).

'Move It!'

I cracked case file no 210 over at CSI with this layout. My chipboard has again been given the all over white gesso treatment.

IDS0079 Two Star Bursts in a board

IDALC0001 Lower Case Letters

'Fantastic Mr & Mrs Fox'

I couldn't wait to scrap this photo of my two children all dressed up in their costumes for book week at school last week. I think they did an amazing job of painting their own masks. And it was the perfect excuse to use the 'Mr & Mrs' title!

IDP0189 Mr & Mrs

IDW0072 Beautiful Delightful Wonderful

IDD0042 Nat's Hearts 1

Thankyou so much for stopping by the blog today and checking out my many layouts featuring fabulous Imaginarium Designs chipboard. I hope you are inspired to give your chipboard a simple coat or two of gesso too.

Cheers

New Chippie Phrases & More!!!

Hi Imaginarium Designs Friends!

Amanda here, & today I am sharing a sweet sibling love page, as well as another of my upcoming class layouts!

I love intricacy of our chippie designs, but even more than that, I love the versatility of Imaginarium Designs Chipboard!

It really doesn't matter what you're creating the chippies always embellish and complete a project beautifully!

The brand new Fancy Pants Designs: Millie & June collection is a super sweet Mother/Grandmda/Sister range & instantly made me think of the chipboard phrase,

"S is for Sister my forever friend" - I think it coordinated just perfectly......

"S is for Sister"

Yep. That chipboard phrase/title is just awesome!

You'll also spy the Imaginarium Designs Chipboard bunting banner on this layout too!

Two very simple chipboard pieces that really bring the page together and maximise effect. I've drawn on the Millie & June colour palette to inspire the treatment on this chipboard - lots of Gold and Royal Blue Versa Inks - love it!

Let's take a closer look....

Talk about intricate cuts - how fabulously cut is that phrase?!!! A gorgeous font and the gold inky finish is divine!

I've used a gold puffy sticker as a sub-title to support the sister phrase as the main heading on this layout.

I love how this bunting connects my photgraphs & draws you into that sweet ephemera and flair cluster. Too cool!

I love the two-tone effect on the bunting / flag banner, and it was so easy to do! Simply 'mask' the area to be protected with a piece of paper and ink away. Allow ink to dry and repeat the process on the opposite side. Such a fun and playful way to embellish your layouts!

Chipboard Featured:

"S is for Sister my forever friend"

Banners (3 types - 6 inch)

Next up, I have two separate layouts that also work as a double layout too!

A girl and boy version for my two darlings!

I know, how cool is this?!!!

A bit of mixed media delight combined with our favourite chippies and Cocoa Vanilla Studio's: Colour Me Happy collection. Love!

Let's take a closer look at each page individually......

"Love this"

Love this: boy, photo, attitude, memory, love it all! The new chipboard design 'lovethis' is just too easy to create with! I coated mine in black ink, and then applied Glitzin' Glamour in Black to give it more texture, dimension and lift. Very cool!
