Two Layouts from Gerry

Hi everyone!
This is Gerry here today sharing with you two of my latest layouts with our amazing chippies!
My first layout today is "Brother & Sister Love"...

Other Products: * "Rondelle" collection from Prima Marketing
** Decorative Strip Die from Sizzix

I used here the big and middle Oval Frames to frame my photos.

N.B. I cut out the inside swirls of the frames!

The chippies were painted with Glimmer Glam, then sanded and 

finally I added white acrylic paint.

The word "LOVE" was painted with Gesso and then

I added touches of baby blue acrylic paint.

Because I wanted to have "playful" title I treated the

phrase "Brother & Sister" differently.

The words "brother" and "sister" were separated

from each other and the sign "&" as well.

As a base I painted them with Gesso. The sign "&" was treated

exactly as the oval frames.

The two words have different touches of paint 

- black, grey, blue, yellow and partly modelling paste.

My second layout today is "You Growing Up"....

Other Products: "Firefly" collection from Prima Marketing

The hot air balloon was inked with pink and blue ink.

I added partly "Stickles" for some glitter look.

I cut out the rectangle from the circle border. 

Then I cut the border in the middle and I used only one half for this layout.

The chipboard I used here was treated once again with Gesso,

different colours Glimmer Glam and there are also

some touches of modelling paste.

I love adding modelling paste because of the texture it gives...

The little bird was first painted and then stamped 

by using a swirly stamp.
