Blue Fern Studios - Seasonal Wildflowers


Let me introduce you to Blue Fern Studios Seasonal Wildflowers. 



Lavender Fields:
I took this photo of some lavender in the spring 2012.  I think I was really trying to get the little bumble bee  BUT ended up with the flowers.  Either my shutter speed or my eyesight is way tooooo slow. I ended up with a different image than what I envisioned.  Just like a scrap page.  Sometimes (most times) the page starts with one vision and ends with completely different vision.  

I used the  Blue Fern Studios -Seasonal Wildflowers : Model  074394 to resemble my lavender.  great piece, isn't it?

Before I treated my Blue Fern chipies with any paint, I set them on my layout and used them as masks.  I sprayed with Tattered Angels Mist in Lavender Fields. 

I painted these with gesso first, then after they dried I dabbed the  flower part of them with molding paste to create some dimension.  When dry, I used my fingertip to dab some purple and yellow acrylic paint on them sparingly.




Someone asked about my corners and the techniques applied.  First I punched my corners with the Martha Stewart Large Wild Flowers corner punch.  Then I mixed some molding paste and some Claudine Hellmuth yellow acrylic paint together and applied it to a Prima mask.  This is illustrated below.



My layout was based on this design by Marie-Nicolas Alliot for the Prima BAP (Build a page)  Challenge in Dec.  This was featured at Prima.

  2. Hi Jenny, this is really beautiful again. Such a good idea to use the chipboard as a mask, the LO looks like a field of lavender now. I also love the corners of the cardstock you used. Did you use a punch to make these corners?
    It's a pity you live in the USA, cause I would love have a workshop from you to learn some of your techniques!
