Miae says : Hey everyone! Using both UmWowStudio and Gauche Alchemy on my page today and what a great pair they make! UWS and GA had just the right goodies to help me embellish my page and tell my story.

This page is about my family and our love of traveling so I used the Potty People set to depict us and the Layered Raindrops as a map pin icon. Those little Potty People were exactly what I needed and they come in three different sizes....just perfect for my family of four! I left them au natural because they're just so cute as they are! I wanted my map pin symbol to be bold, say "here we are!" so I covered it with black glitter then painted it with black distress stain.

Washi tape and punchinella from Gauche Alchemy helped to create my background. The washi tape had these tiny little hearts, so cute! I used the hearts punchinella as a stencil with molding paste to create background texture and then used it again as layering under the photo to break up the straight lines and give contrast between the white photo border and the white background paper. I also used items from the Blue Streak Mixed Media Color Kit to make my title. I found that big ol' 4 to be just right.

Supplies:
UWS Potty People
UWS Layered Raindrops
Gauche Alchemy washi tape
