December DT layouts for 2 Crafty Chipboard


Hi There!
I have two layouts to share with you today, that I have created for my 2 Crafty DT December post...
2 Crafty Chipboard have a FANTASTIC range of Christmas theme chipboard pieces!
So! I couldn't resist & have created two Christmas themed pages.

For my first layout of my hubby & daughter with a photo taken Christmas day last year....
 

'Christmas Cuties'



I have used these FAB Chipboard pieces!
 
 
I have added a coat of gesso to some Checkerboard clumps, cut up into smaller pieces & placed onto the base of my page.... 


I have added some black ink the 6' Clock face frames....

 
Gave these gorgeous 'Wicked Christmas Wreath' a coat of gesso & finished them off with some bling....
 

With this 'Christmas Cuties' title I gave it a couple of coats of gesso, then finished it off by adding some pale blue mist spray along the bottom.....
 
**************
 
For my 2nd layout......

'Sitting on Santa's Knee' 
 



The 2 Crafty Chipboard pieces I have used on this layout of my two kids with a Santa photo, taken back in 2010...
 
 
I have given this Sitting on Santa's Knee title a coat of gesso, then to give it a bit more texture I gave it a coat of light modeling paste & lightly inked it with some red ink.....
  It has also been splattered with some black mist!
 

With this 'Heart Lattice panel' I have inked it with red ink, then sponged very lightly with some gesso... 

 
I have Inked this Camera with black ink & it also has been splattered with some white mist spray...
 
 
With theses 'Dotted Baubles' I have added a coat of gesso, then a coat of light modeling paste once dried & rubbed over them with some yellow ink!!
 

Please remember.....
