A Trio of November Inspiration
by Nicole Doiron


Hello all my dear friends at Blue Fern Studios!

Nicole here today to share with you my November projects.

Let's start with this teal shabby chic layout of my niece Ella with her violin.


I used papers from the Serendipity collection to create a grid pattern collage on my page.  The brick design was made using the Essential Textures stamp and Snow Imagine Ink embossing powder.  

I combined 2 chipboard pieces to create my title, one from the Sweet & Lucky set on which I created an ombre effect with the Sea Mist, Snow and Caribbean powders, and the other from the French Words set covered with Ebony.


Obviously, most of the pretty flowers found on my page are from Blue Fern Studios!  The bigger teal flower with the fuzzy center is from the brand new Memoires Blooms set - it's gorgeous! 


Below you see the very elegant Gatsby Collage that I divided into 2 pieces to slide at either end of my photo.



The chipboard piece that inspired this whole concept is the Courtship Violin that you see peaking out from the bottom corner of the photo of my pretty and gifted niece, Ella!

Patterned Paper: Serendipity (Imagination, Fascination, Chronicle)
Chipboard: Courtship Violin, Gatsby Collage, Sweet & Lucky set, French Words 
Flowers: Memoires Blooms, Spring Lilies, Tranquil Blooms, Courtship Blooms
Stamps: Essential Textures
Imagine Ink: Embossing Powders (Caribbean, Sea Mist, Ebony, Snow)



My 2nd page is as boyish as the first one was feminine.


I started off with some vintage Paisley & Vine papers to go along with this more masculine theme.

The title was taken from the Wish Wonder Dream set which I covered with Blue Sky embossing powder.  I added some fabulous Lightbulbs covered with Sand & Sea.


Again, I divided a longer piece of chipboard into 2 pieces, this time a piece of the Printer's Bits to fit vertically above and below my photo. On this piece is the Ruby embossing powder which I dabbed with a little bit of brighter red acrylic paint.


Some more of the Printer's Bits layered over the Triangle Eclipse covered in Stellar Night and dabbed with brown paint. On the background paper, I stamped the netting design from the Essential Textures stamp set.


You've seen this little cutie before... he is  my friend's son.

Last but certainly not least, I share with you a closer look at my layout
that was part of the November challenge reveal, featuring the latest collection, Memoires.


The November challenge is simply to use a Blue Fern Studios chipboard title on your project, ANY title so hopefully you will play along!

I had the perfect title in my BFS chipboard stash for this Autumn layout... An Autumn Story. 
 I simply covered it with a new favorite shade of Imagine Ink embossing powder called Golden Brick.


On my background, I sprayed different Autumn shades of mists plus used the new Crackled Textures stamps with brown ink and added some stenciling with modeling paste.


After treating it with a mix of Golden Bricks and Chili Powder powders, I cut the Treasured Floral Frame into several pieces to adorn my page with it here and there, combining it with the Fall Foliage set.  On the leaves, I mixed some Chili Powder, Tangerine and Nutmeg.


Another chipboard set that I am totally in love with is the Pretty Pumpkins set and here you see the smaller version. Totally gorgeous!


Finally, here is a closer look at the 'Autumn story' that I chose to document on this layout, a very beautiful shot of a splendid Fall day spent with my man, and framed with beautiful earthy tone flowers, including BFS Tranquil blooms.

My November's layouts with the Mémoires Collection by Marie-Eve Bernard

Hello,

My turn to share with you some layout with the Memoires collection.  What a beautiful collection to play with!  One of my absolute favorite!  

Angel:

My first layout is the one I have made for the November challenge.  You have to use a chipboard title from Blue Fern Studios.  So much beautiful chipboards to choose from! This layout featured my little boy, my little angel, Léo.


For my layout, I choose the Tale of treasures paper from the Memoires collection.  With the neutral tones of this paper, the possibilities are endless.


On my background, I use the grungy grid stamp set.  Love the texture it brings.  I use the Crackled Bits chipboard set too.  I alter those chipboard with the Imagine Ink Sand and sea Embossing powder.  I


I use the word Angel from the Baby Words chipboard set. First, I ink it in black. I found it to dark on  my layout. So, I add some white marker and some turquoise ink. I was much more happy with the result.  I add some flowers:  Harvest Lilies  and the  Dark tropic Lilies.

Special, adorable, Perfect

For this second layout, I also used the Memoires collection.  The paper I used is Calling Cards.



On this layout I mixed two different set of title sets: Perfect, adorable, special and good vibes.  I just inked them with black ink.  I also used two sets of chipboards :  Techno rings and Industrial gears.  altered them with Imagine Ink Embossing powders in Copper, Chili Powder, Breeze and Seven Seas.  


On my background, I use the Scratched stamp set with  black ink and the Grungy Grid Stamp set with turquoise ink.


Finally, I had some beautiful Blue Fern Studios Flowers: Late Winter Lilies and Memoires Blooms.

Sourire

The Mémoires collection is just perfect for fall layout.   It was the perfect paper to compliment the picture of Mathilde in the pumpkins field.


I use the  Chronicles paper, the remember when paper from the Memoirs collection.  Also had the adobe paper from the timeless collection.


I also use Blue fern flowers:  Late winter lilies, tranquil blooms and  Memoires blooms. 


I love the pretty pumpkins chipboard on that layout.  First, i add a coat of gesso and the chipboard and glue them on the Couture paper from the Timeless collection (I have previously put clear gesso on it).  Once they are dry, I cut them and add color the pumpkins with watercolours.

 
For my title, I use the sourire chipboard.  I put a coat bof gesso and add watercolours. I did the same process with the Organic vine.



hope you enjoy those layouts and that they insured you to play with the wonderful Mémoires Collection,

Marie-Eve

Hello! Yuko here!
I use the MEMORIES collection of this new release(They are very beautiful)
I made 3layouts!
It is slightly chic and is a beautiful line of the autumnal scenery.




【Halloween】 
I have done this wonderful paper for Halloween makeup 
while saying wonderful ... like the autumn!

 Only an orange, yellow, brown, a little colored it with red in a mist 
and a solid picture in watercolors in the background.

Cute chip board of this pumpkin!
Outline was embossed with HONEY · CHIRIPOWDER · VERDANT.


The title is a new color of embossing powder Black Sand.
That is a very interesting color, 
such as mix of black sand as calm gold of the name.
