Love You ~ Lynne Forsythe

Sometimes you just need someone to say....

I LOVE YOU!

Hi UmWowStudio Fans...

Hope you are having a WONDERFUL DAY!

Thank you for taking the time to stop by the blog.

Today, I want to share with you a little creation I whipped up.

I had a few leftover pieces from some "made paper"

I created for another project.

So, I decided to pull out an unfinished Chunky ATC

and a few naked wood pieces.

Then, I painted them with Color Wash Paint.

When they were dry, I cut the "made paper" to size and 

adhered it to the Chunky ATC with Multi Medium.

I adhered the wood pieces together.

While it was drying I spritzed a flower with Glimmer Mist.

I also pulled out letters to spell "LOVE YOU" using

UmWowStudio ~ Alpha One

and spritzed them with Glimmer Mist.

I then pulled out one of the "leaves" from

UmWowStudio ~ Leafy Mash

and painted it with Color Wash.

Then I put it all together....

Hope you enjoyed my creative journey!

Keeping it simple....

Hey Peeps....

Things here in Northern New Hampshire
are turning towards FALL!

(I'm not sure I'm ready for it!!)

I'm been doing a lot of traveling lately
so today I'm keeping things a bit simple!

I had a Chunky ATC that I covered
with a grey wood a while back,
and it's been sitting around collecting dust.

I had a few pieces of peeled paper from
an image transfer I had done, so,

I adhered them to my chunky ATC
and covered it all with Multi Medium!

I pulled out UmWowStudio's
Wonky Circle Stencil and a bit of texture medium.

When dry I spritzed with a bit of Glimmer Mist
and rubbed on a bit of Stucco to add another layer
of color and texture.

I had a tad bit of the
UmWowStudio's Distressed Harlequin

left over from another project
so I sprayed it with glimmer mist,

pounded on it with a hammer
and painted on a layer of Multi Medium
to keep it from bleeding.

I added a few flowers, a bit of vintage lace and twine
and a quote....
and my Chunky ATC is good to go!

I think I will wrap this up and ship it off to a
friend that I am sooo happy is in my life!

HOPE you have a WONDERFUL creative Day!!

Stay True to your HEART by Lynne

Hi UmWowStudio Fans!!!

Thank you sooo much for stopping

by the blog today!!

I had a LOT OF FUN with this little project....
my Chunky ATC.

I began with a piece of wood
cut to 2.5" x 3.5"
I painted all the edges black and
while waiting for the paint to dry....
I cut a 3.5" strip of
7 Dots Studio ~ Homegrown ~ Attic
from the strip I cut

(2) 2.5" x 3.5"
(2) 1.5"x 3.5"
(2) 1.5" x 2.5"

When the black paint was dry
I distressed the edges of the paper
and adhered them to the Chunky ATC.

I applied a layer of texture medium through
UmWowStudio's Handwriting Stencil
randomly all over the ATC.

When dry I spritzed the entire ATC with mist.
While still wet, I dug at the paper
exposing the core.

I painted one UmWowStudio's ~ Leaf Stems with paint.

I spritzed a piece of cheese cloth with mist.

I applied a layer of Gesso to my ATC
with a palette knife.

From here I began put my Chunky ATC together.

I tied a piece of red jute around the ATC
with a loopy bow in the front.

For accent I added a metal corner.

I tucked the colored cheese cloth
behind the jute.

I cut apart the UmWowStudio ~ Leaf Stem
and tucked it behind the flowers.

My creation just wouldn't be complete
with out some verbage.
I pulled out 7 Dot Studios ~ Homegrown ~ Word Stickers
and picked some words that spoke to my heart!

I hope you enjoy my creative journey.

Once again.....THANK YOU for stopping by!
