Change by Sindi Jeffers

Hi everyone! I stopped by today to share a new layout with my UmWowStudio goodies!

We visited Rock City in Chattanooga, TN around 2010. Caleb was a little guy then and got a really big kick out of trying on the famous Rock City gnome hat. He wasn't quite as big a fan this time, since he's almost a teenager and, of course, he's entirely too cool for a gnome hat. Needless to say, I forced him to wear it for about 30 seconds and I'm sure I'll be hearing about it for the next 30 years.

For this layout, I used one of the large polaroid frames. I covered it with some glitter and absolutely love the look it created. I also used one of the layered arrows. I backed the arrow with some patterned paper. I also used some of the negative pieces from the explore tags to add a few circles around the page.

Happy Saint Valentine's Day! Valentine card by Tanya Dudkina

Hi!

Happy Saint Valentine's day! Lots of love to you and your families!

Today I wat to share with you a card which I made just in five minutes. It's all because I was so much inspired my gorgeous Um Wow Studio chipboard. As soon as I received this sweet design I saw a card in my head after a second. It was pure inspiration! 

Here you can see how I used chipboard- I took another UmWowStudio chipboard and framed heart hands with it. 

I put a glittering heart under the chipboard to make a sparkling effect. 

I also embossed Um Wow Studio frame with red embossing tinsel by Ranger

Out Takes!

Hello everyone!

Hope you all have been enjoying the holidays!
This is my last post for UmWowStudio and I just wanted to give a big THANKS to DeeDee for having me as a part of her team! I have thoroughly enjoyed it!

Today I'm sharing with you a funny page called Out Takes....we resorted to selfies this year in order to get our Christmas cards out on time and here's some of the faces we pulled :)

I used the UWS Star Confetti Mask with Super Heavy Gel in Gloss on the background. When the gel dried I painted over the stars with watercolors. 

I also used the 'This Happened' sign from the UWS Arrow Title Mash and covered it with gesso and a messy coat of blue metallic acrylic paint.

To emphasize one of the photos, I framed it with a large polaroid from the UWS Polaroid Mash collection. This I left raw because I love the look of it just the way it is!

So with that I bid adieu, happy holidays to everyone and may you all have a wonderful New Year! See you around the blogosphere!

Cheers,
Miae

Missing You with Rhonda Van Ginkel

Tuesday greetings to you and welcome to the blog!

I created a card for you today featuring the Miniature Blank Polaroid, a Flair and the background texture courtesy of the Harlequin Mask and some embossing paste.

I created the card by starting with my background layer, stitching it on and then applying the embossing paste using the Harlequin Mask. Let dry or you can heat set with a heat gun for a little speedier process.

I then dripped a few of my favorite coordinating colors into the masked design.  While this was drying I coated my Miniature Polaroid Frame with some Art Anthology Dimensional Sorbet Paint in Mint Julep.

When dry, I backed the frame with some coordinating paper and assembled my sentiments and other embellishments.

My Secret Story with Rhonda

Thursday greetings to you!  It's Rhonda here today with my very first post for UmWow Studio.

I was inspired by the Hexagon Background for my page. To begin, I coated it in clear gesso and then misted it with some Moon Shadow Mist, then sprinkled it randomly while wet with Pepper embossing Powder and applied heat to activate the embossing.

Once it dried completely, I flipped it over and used it as a mask to mist onto my background paper. I used TiffanyLou Blue and then set aside to dry.

I selected the Mini Polaroid with a heart relief and colored it with Whale Watch Blue. The heart was later colored in with a Blue Metallic artist pen. The Layered Clouds were misted with Splash Chalkboard mist and Whale Watch Blue. Once dry, I added some Glossy Accents to the layered cloud on the right.

Additional embellishments of enamel dots and sequins helped finish the page. The star theme of my "Life is Good" flair is one of my favorite elements on the page.

Totally happy by Tusia Lech

Hello folks!

Here is Tusia Lech today with a layout.

The photo was taken last year in the summer - my daughter was very happy, because she loves to be outside :) Background paper comes from 7 Dots Studio line - Cold Country. I created some layers using papers and pink doilies.

Gorgeous polaroid frame was covered with pink embossing powder. You can see also background created with gesso and UWS Circle Confetti mask.

I have added also Circle Confetti chipboard pieces colored with white Faber-Castell Pitt Pen.

This gorgeous Floral Flourish was covered with with and green embossing powder.

Family Hashtag Banner was covered with green embossing powder. I love to use embossing powder for changing the color of UWS chipboard.

And last but not least - have you seen new, gorgeous, so very detailed doilies from UWS?! I covered one with white embossing ink. It looks stunning!!! Under the doily I placed sweet, pink flair from Our Princess set. 

Thank you for visiting UmWowStudio blog today!!!

Rainy Days by Manda

Hi there, it's Manda here today to share a new layout with you.

I wanted to scrap this instagram photo I took of the rain on the windscreen of the car because I loved the way it looked. I wanted the page to represent a rainy day so I started out with a sheet of light blue paper that had a watercolour effect and then I used the Line of Chevrons Mask and some modelling paste to create some texture. Next I took some grey acrylic paint and added some silver Pearl Ex.

Once my background was complete I used various papers and layered under the photo. I wanted to keep the grey theme so I took some Heidi Swapp Color Shine in Tinsel and painted onto my large Make Note Frame, because of the "shine" in the ink it created a metallic look to the chipboard.

I also did the same to a piece of the Layered Banners and Layered Arrows. I love the Life Is Good Flair but I felt it needed something else so I took a stamp and some Staz On ink and stamped it. I really like how it turned out and it was easy to get a good image because of the size and flatness of the flair. 

Finally I added some more stamping and embellishments as well as my title. My title was a bit too long to put across the bottom of the frame so instead of the word love I used a piece from my Heart Confetti and coloured it with black ink.

Thank you so much for stopping by!

ROTFL!

Hello there!

It's Miae here and I'm up to share a page using some fabulous UmWowStudio products!

I've got this photo of my daughter who happened to be rolling around on a pile of wood chips at the park, laughing about something (oh how I wish I could remember what it was!) so hence the title ROTFL!

I wanted to create something with movement and energy so I used the Circle Confetti Mask with some heavy gloss gel in a radiating pattern from the photo.

Of course I still wanted the photo to be the main focus. Using one of the polaroid frames from the Polaroid MASH did just the trick. I kept the frame in that wonderful, chipboard color and only altered the "make note" with gesso and a zig pen to match the colors of my page.

And to continue to draw the eye around the page and give movement, I placed a bright yellow flair from the Mustard 29 Flair collection in the upper right followed by a heart from the Heart Confetti collection. 

I hope that got creative thoughts going! Have a wonderful day!
