Blue Fern Studio May Inspirations

Hello Blue Fern Studios Fans!  
Here's my turn to share new projects with you. 
I  had the chance to play with the new paper collection Happy Accident and I just ADORE it. Those papers are perfect for Mixedmedia. 

«Perfect»


For my first layout, I used the gorgeous paper Fate from the Happy Accident collection. I put a thin coat of clear gesso on my paper and modeling paste through a circles stencil to add texture. Then, when the modeling paste was dry, I did the same process with a triangles stencil. 


I put drops of mint, yellow and orange inks on the modeling paste to make it fit my paper. I used  Essential TexturesTattered Newsprint and Mémoire Collages stamps with black ink to add contrast. 


I glued Pea Soup BFS Glitter on my Splattered Circles and my Graduated Circles chipboards with medium gel. Then, I embossed the Garden Lattice Bits with Sage BFS Embossing Powder and glued some Pea Glitters on them. I embossed my title with Honey BFS Embossing Powder to make it stand out.

«Happiness»


For this layout, I used the beautiful paper Autumn Biography from the Mémoires collection. I did a textured background with modeling paste and three different stencils; a flourishes one at first and then, two different size of words. I put drops of fuschia and pink inks and I sprayed water on it.


I used brown ink with Crackled Textures and Serendpity Medley stamps to add more texture on my background. I embossed the Shabby Brick Bits chipboards with Coral BFS Embossing Powder.


I embossed my title Happiness from the Good Vibes chipboards set with Garnet BFS Embossing Powder to make it match.

«Memories Captured» 


For my last layout Memories Captured, I choose Incident paper from the Happy Accident collection. I used a square and then a dots stencil to put modeling paste on it. I add yellow inks on my background to make contrast with the blue paper.


I used Making Plans and Grungy Grid stamps with brown ink to add contrast. I embossed two chipboards from the Splattered Circles set with Stormy Skies BFS embossing Powder.


I embossed my title Memories Captured with Honey BFS embossing Powder to make it fit my background.
