#UWSbigbash Day 2

Let's move forward with our fabulous week o' celebration!!

Day 1 this week started off with an introduction to some of our brand new products! And today we're sharing some beautiful inspiration by our talented design team and a giveaway... but first: 

Up today is Manda with two superb celebration themed cards>

Birthday Card:

For this card I used the Banner Mash. I painted the larger pieces in gold and then inked the smaller pieces with my chalk edger then topped them with some enamel dots. The background was made using the Star Confetti Mask which I inked with my Versa Mark ink pad and then embossed in white. Next I took my distress inks and a dauber to give it a rainbow hue. 

Make A Wish Card:

I made this little card into a filler card for my Project Life album. To start off I covered the Make A Wish Pocket Chip card with gesso, then I used a mixture of Gelatos to give it an ombre wash. Next I took some of the Star Confetti and covered with Versa Mark and embossed with gold embossing powder.

And Miae with the most adorable personalized little card:

right?

Hooray! UmWowStudio is having a birthday....it's FIRST! And to celebrate they are having a party ALL WEEK LONG! There's going to be all sorts of fun stuff happening so I hope you don't miss out.... I used the Celebrate Confetti, Banner MASH and Chevron Mask.

Time for a little SKETCH inspiration!!! Remember this debut yesterday?

I based this layout on the brand new sketch:

It occurred to me a few weeks ago (When my little sis visited us for Christmas) that I could scrap pictures of HER and do them nice and girly♥

Love my background? Have you heard of the GELLI PLATE craze?? Well check out my post over on the Amazing Crafting Products Blog -video alert!- It's all the rage to create  your OWN plate out of durable high quality Amazing Mold Rubber! And I used mine to mono-print my background. The base of the layout is a sheet of beautiful 7 Dots Studio paper. On top of the paper is my mono-printing in Gesso and Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist. I picked up a super cool technique from CT member Miae and printed using UmWowStudio's Circle Confetti Mask. (take a peek @ the ACP blog to see the video!)

Embellishments include the UmWowStudio Nature Walk Butterfly, Heart Confetti and the Reinforcement from the Nature Walk Soar Tags. There's a Coffee Ring and { w i t h   l o v e } stamp from Viva Las VegaStamps!, a super cool vintage tag from a color kit by Gauche Alchemy Kits, Prima flower and bark hearts. All the gorgeous pink comes from the brand new Puffy Sequin Hearts by May Arts! I used one whole heart, one half heart and cut a bunch of sequins off of three other hearts. Last but not least, just a little thread, adhesive and kraft paper distressed in Walnut Stain Ink.

BRIGHT IDEA {Tag by DeeDee}

Hey folks :) DeeDee here today sharing another 7 Dots Studio and UmWowStudio MIXUP!

These two companies really work so well together.. and I've been so proud of the Creative Team over the last month!

Today I'm sharing a tag I just finished up this morning - I'll be submitting it to Just Steampunk!

The paper is from the All I Ever collection from 7 Dots Studio and has been distressed with Walnut Stain and Spiced Marmalade Distress Ink. (The black paper is just basic black cardstock)

The bulb has been molded using Amazing Mold Rubber and cast in Amazing Clear Cast Resin (from Amazing Crafting Products!) I LOVE IT! The gears are a mix of the Gear Mash and some ideology metal ones by TH. The # tabs are from 7 Gypsies and the metal flower is from my stash covered in glimmer mist. You can see here a sneak peek of a brand new set from UmWowStudio ===> LAYERED LEAVES! 

The stamps is from Viva Las VegaStamps! in archival black, the button and thread are from my stash. The crow is from the Pair o' Crows. The alphas are from Glitz Designs, and I've punched some holes into the back of the tag as another layer.

I Love Chevrons {A 12x12 by DeeDee}

Whoo!! 

Today I'm sharing a layout I created as an Inspiration Post over @ the Amazing Crafting Products Blog. Head over there to learn more about the new Amazing Mold Rubber they've released! 

My layout is a 12x12 based off the Simple Scrapper sketch and I'll be linking up @ Paper Issues.

I really really superbly love this layout! The base is a piece of Cosmo Cricket paper from the Fleuriste collection. The white piece is Limba cardstock from the Paper Issues store. I've used the Circle Confetti Mask, Layered Circles chipboard, Star Confetti chipboard and Sidewalk Chalk Flair from UmWowStudio. All the chipboard has been covered with Archival Ink by Ranger. Chevron Washi Tape from Gauche Alchemy. Row of Stars, Full Moon and Writing Background stamps from Viva Las VegaStamps!. White Box Pleat ribbon from May Arts Ribbons. The bulb is molded with Amazing Mold Rubber and cast in Amazing Clear Cast Resin by Amazing Crafting Products. I also used Tattered Angels Chalkboard Mist in Charcoal. 

You can really see the wood grain on the Limba paper in this close up shot. GOOD NEWS! Design Team coupons are back @ Paper Issues and you can use mine to get 20% off goods!

So if you love this wood grain cardstock as much as I do use coupon code "UmWowStudio" to get 20% off your order!

Random goods from my stash: white cardstock, seed beads, eBeads, adhesive, thread, my sewing machine, paper clip, rhinestone brads, alpha stickers.

PS! I just have to give a shout out to Michele Kosciolek!! We've gone a "Healthier Us" adventure and I can't wait to be healthier with a nice beautiful wardrobe! Michele has sent me this GORGEOUS Black and White chevron forever scarf and I just adore it! It totally fits into how I want to dress and be perceived and oh my gosh! It's AMAZING! ♥
