“Just Be” Vintage Altered Plate with Karen Jiles

Hi there, 

It’s Karen sharing a “Just Be” Vintage Altered Plate that I created with the Exhale Word Mix and Penny Farthing Bike chipboard.  I coupled the products with a vintage plate, some expanding mousse, flowers, pins and clear gems. The products were perfect together.  Take a peek at how this project came together in the tutorial below.

Step 1: Trim patterned papers down to layering sizes and run through Xyron machine to apply adhesive to the papers. Adhere papers together and then adhere layered papers to chipboard layer.

Step 2: Sand patterned paper and chipboard edges using a sanding bar.

Step 3: Adhere “Just Be” and Bike chipboard, corrugated board and corkboard embellishments to the patterned paper layers. Note: These embellishments added some great texture and awesome details.

Step 4: Adhere quote, flowers, clear pebbles and heart pins. Set aside.

Step 5: Apply Worn Linen Expanding Mousse to the edges and random areas of the plate. Heat the expanding mouse to create bubbled texture. Using a paintbrush, tap on some gesso. Note: This plate made the perfect base for this project. The colour was perfect and extremely lightweight material.

Step 6: Using E6000, adhere the patterned paper layer to the plate and tap on some more gesso to enhance the overall design.

Step 7: Continue embellishing as desired.

Hello crafty friends!

Happy Friday!!!

Gloria here today and happy to share of my project.

 I made a wedding scrapbooking layout using Say Yes to the Dress and Mini Connected Hearts chipboard die cut from Southern Ridge Trading Company Shop.

I made a 12' x 12' layout with my wedding photo.

When I saw the Say Yes to the Dress Chipboard, I decided to make a wedding page.

First, I coloured the Say yes to the Dress and Mini connected Hearts chipboard with white paint and I covered the dress, yes and hearts with Glossy accents and added glitters.

I painted a part of 12'x12' white card stock with watercolours and added some ink splatters all over the panel.

I cut some papers and adhere on the base card stock.

I stamped some flowers on a tracing paper with embossing ink, white heat embossed them and fussy cut them with my Cutter Bee scissors.  

I adhere my 15 years ago photo , the beautiful chipboards and the flowers .

The chip boards are so beautiful. 

The mini connected hearts is so adorable and perfect for wedding cards.

The hearts make cards so beautiful.

I made this card for our church member's wedding.

Explore Card with Katelyn Grosart

Hey Southern Ridge Trading Company fans, Katelyn here. Travelling has become such a big part of our lives these days, that going away for a long trip, isn't as common as it used to be. In light of those special people in your lives that are going away on a long trip, why not create a card and give one to them to celebrate the fact. To inspire you, I've created this fun Explore card. You'll want to read below as I share with you how to embellish the chipboard pieces for my Explore Card at home.

From the Create, Explore, Relax set, cut out the Explore word. Using a blending tool with foam, blend Walnut Stain Distress Oxide Ink over the entire surface of the word.

Next, you'll need the Sm. World Globe.

From the Plain Banners, you'll need three banners. I traced the banners around two pieces of patterned paper. Cut the three banners out. Adhere the paper banners to the chipboard banners and punch holes through the top of the banners. Ink the edges of the banners using Walnut Stain Distress Oxide Ink and a blending tool with foam.

The last chipboard piece you'll need the large frame from the Abstract Frame Set. Using a blending tool with foam, blend Antique Linen Distress Oxide Ink over the entire surface of the frame. Apply Emboss It Ink to the frame and sprinkle Tidal Lotus embossing powder over the entire surface of the frame. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool.

Cut three patterned paper pieces that measure 4 1/4" x 5 1/4", 4 1/2" x 5 1/2" and 4 3/4" x 5 3/4" to mount in behind of the frame. Once the frame is mounted over top of the image, adhere the banner through the top left hand hand corner of the frame. Adhere a large white rose and two coral roses above the banner.

Adhere the Explore word to the bottom portion of the frame. Adhere a coral and a mint rose to the left side of the E in the explore word. In the bottom right hand corner of the frame, adhere one large white rose, two coral roses, two mint roses and two small white roses.

Adhere the globe above the flowers. Add embellishments from the paper collection as desired. Adhere two coral roses and one mint rose above the globe.

Here are a few closeup photos of the finished card.

Here is the finished Explore Card.
