What does one do???

Hi UmWowStudio Fans....

I must tell on myself....

when I started this project I had
ZERO inspiration
ZERO creativity....

just a deadline to make!

What does one do??
Go back to what you know works.....

a piece of paper,

a stencil and a bit of medium

and so I began.....

I applied modeling paste through my

UmWowStudio ~ Grid Stencil

onto a sheet of 7DotsStudio ~ Fortune Teller paper.

(a round of applause to our fearless leader for this AWESOME paper!)

When it was dry I applied a layer of Clear Gesso
to help the next layer of color move easily.

I thought I was creating a video on how I did the next step
but seems to be......I was mistaken!

Then, I pulled out my package of
Ken Oliver's Liquid Metals.

I randomly dropped color onto my stenciled paper,

then spritzed with water and let it run.

When I was happy with the colors,

I dried the paper and tore the paper into strips.

Next, I pulled out a few of my newly acquired textures

a bit of fabric from a flea market in Florida

a few pieces of paper mesh

and my good ole standbys

dictionary paper and flute.

I tore them into various pieces and arranged them on

a 12 x 12 piece of kraft paper.

I then adhered all my pieces down with multi medium matte.

When dry, I used a fan brush to randomly apply

more multi medium matte on my "paper"

which I sprinkled Glass Glitter into.

When everything was dry, I flipped over my new "paper"
and cut into various sizes.

.....I applied my new "paper" to a greeting card base and

here are the results!!

I used a NAKED UmWowStudio ~ Gears Strip
behind my flower cluster.

I even made a bonus card.....

I painted a diecut ivy and...

Here are the results...

Not bad for having

ZERO inspiration

ZERO creativity....

Sometimes you JUST HAVE TOO.....

and it will come!
