In case you have missed it

     

Few days ago my October DT projects for 2Crafty chipboard were posted on their blog, so I re-post it here with some more info and details

Today I would like to share some  layouts I made for my baby son. He had his Christening ceremony this summer and I have found so many extraordinary photos that I decided to make an album for him.

   This time all my projects are inspired by a story I read recently in a Russian book. The idea is that you have to live your life in a good way, & that while you are being good, your angels can rest, because they can rely on you, that you won't do something bad, and thus they can help someone else who needs their assistance more, at this moment.  Beautiful story, isn't it?

So let's start and keep in my mind, that babies are like angels.

  My first layout  is called

Я сегодня делюсь с вами страничками, которые я делала для 2Crafty chipboard and Manor House Creations

фото очень личные с крестин, долго решалась публиковать ли их. но рискнула. личная история и вспомнила красивую историю из недавно прочитанной мною книги российской писательницы Марины Аромштам, Когда отдыхают ангелы. смысл таков: жить надо так, чтобы ангелы, которые к нам приставлены, могли спокойно от нас отлучиться на некоторое время, будучи спокойны за нас, зная, что мы ничего не натворим, и  могли отдохнуть и помочь в это время тем, кто действительно крайне нуждается в их помощи в этот момент.
извините, по техникам дальше все по- английски, иначе мой пост будет бесконечно долгим.

 "While the Angels  Rest"

I used the sketch from OUAS

 

which I flipped 90 degrees. and the theme is

  My journaling is hidden under the photo padding as you see it is too personal

 I decided to use just very simple techniques this time,  to keep the
 delicate  mood of the layouts..

  So I have used Chandalier 1 

 I covered it with primer, then I added modelling paste, embossed it
 with a heat gun using Starburst embossing powder.
After that I inked the edges with brown chalk ink.

and you can see gorgeous new release flowers from Manor House Creations

 

For the Clock Face Frames I used just the primer and embossing powder,

crackle paint and random dots of modelling paste.
 For the second part. The same technique was applied on Corner Rosie's

My second layout  is called
 "The Main Thing"

  Nothing special again, I just misted the
 Esther Name Plate

with Starburst mists.

Next I have just used the same techniques as I did
 with the  Helena's Corner.

Here I have  just added  some touches of gesso.

For the Iron Fence I covered it with Gesso, then Crackle paint
and embossed with Ruby Black embossing powder.

Here  I have  embossed the chandelier from Vintage elements 1.

  Here I have used a  Mini Fob Watch, which was just inked with Distress ink.

and as you see I used many mixed media techniques there so I decided to take part at the Mixed Media madness from Berry 71 Bleu with this LO, as I had problems with linking my canvas project for their challenge

My last layout  was made for Manor House Creations blog,
& since the photo was taken on this same special day,
I have decided to include it also at this post too.

 This layout is called
 

   Cherished Moments

These flowers add innocent look to the whole picture and they are still rich in strengthening the soft feelings

 I have used the same techniques that I have already shared above.
 Here are some close ups on title Cherished Moments:
