2Crafty DT Work for July

It's my turn at the 2Crafty blog today.  I've got two layouts to share.
"Happy Mail"

I'm so delighted to be starting my second term with 2Crafty!  Thank you, Vanessa, for keeping me on to work with your awesome products. I recently won a prize from a sketch challenge,  so I decided to make a page about that,  coupling some awesome 2Crafty chipboard with the kit I won. The "Happy" in my title is from the Happy Birthday Card Words set.  That's a wonderful set to get--it has 8 "Happy Birthdays" in the set. I inked that word and the arrow from the Assorted Arrows set" with black ink.

I swiped several shades of ink on the Doily to get the right color to match my papers. 

The circle from the Circle Stack was also inked with black.

This delightful Heidi's Vine was swiped with several shades of green stamp ink, 

and then I drew some veins on the leaves with a pen 

and added a few pink rhinestones to the buds.

Because I scrap 8 x 8, the borders are too long for my pages, 

so I snipped to bits from the Doily Border and swiped it with ink 

to match the doily I used under my photo. The lovely cursive "love" 

is from Mini Word Set 2.

How handy is the pack of 2015's to document the date? I also coated these with black ink.

"You Rock My World"

Last summer I went to a bunch of concerts, 

and I found THE perfect 2Crafty pieces 

to capture the excitement of that summer.

I used the You Rock My World title as the centerpiece of my layout. 

I inked the star in two shades of yellow to match the stars in my paper. 

Then I inked the words black. 

Next, I masked some of the title and coated the word "Rock"

 with embossing ink and silver Zing embossing powder. 

Once that had melted, I added glue to the rest of my title and sprinkled black glitter. 

I mounted the title on adhesive foam to make the title pop off the page.

I coated the Gears and Music Notes with the Zing embossing powder 

and inked the little stars from the ATC Tiny Stars and Hearts sheet in a yellow 

to match the star in my title..

I cut another silver embossed Gear in half to use in two spots on my page.

I used leftover pieces of Film Strips Small and Tiny on my layout. 

I embossed those with black ink. 

I've got a music note layered on top of the film strip and a tiny star adhered to the music notes. 

I love that I can layer three pieces of chipboard on top of each other, 

and my layout still isn't too bulky.
