Oh the Places You'll Go! Mixed Media Layout by Kris Berc

Hello UmWowStudio fans!  It's Kris here today with a sweet layout of my little girl featuring chipboard, flair, and a stencil from the UmWowStudio store!


I chose to leave the chipboard pieces unaltered for this layout.  I think their raw color adds nice contrast to this otherwise pastel-colored page.


I tucked some messy thread beneath the chipboard pieces for some fun texture.


I glued this fun piece of flair to the center of this beautiful butterfly chipboard piece, and then adhered this layered embellishment on top of some messy thread with some foam tape.


Oh how I love heavy gesso with stencils!  Here I've used the Checker Board stencil on a torn piece of patterned paper.


other products:
patterned paper: Blue Fern Studios
flowers: Prima Marketing
script stamp: Prima Marketing
sprays: Lindy's Stamp Gang, Prima Marketing
misc: date stamp, white thread

I hope you have a wonderful week :)

O Sole Mio by Magali

Magali here to show you my first creation for September.
Are you ready for Autumn already? Here in Quebec, we are enjoying a long lasting summer this year!
More than 40 degrees Celsius this week!! And the title of my page is inspired by this beautiful weather...

Today, I want to share a layout with a delicate touch of gold.
As you can see on the image below, you can add a beautiful gold look by spraying gold ink (here, I used Heidi Swapp Color Shine ink). Just let dry and add to your layout.
 Here is my layout. The gold is less easy to see but it's here! ;)
Don't hesistate to layer different chipboards, because this highlights their shapes.
Here you can see the gold butterfly over a tag! This technique could be perfect for a card too.
 And here I layered the star over the bubble!
Just have fun with the different chipaboards!

Here are the UWS products I used:
Nautical Stars
 Sequins confetti
Layered butterflies

Favorite beaches


Hello everyone, Danielle here with you today! I have a mini album to share that I've made with the fun Tag Book chipboard, that comes with a binding ring. This tag book makes it super easy to make a mini in a short time.

My album is about some of my favorite beaches, so it had to be colorful with colors that scream beach to me. I started painting the tag book in a bright teal color.

I painted all the chipboard elements that I used to decorate the mini, using these acrylic paint colors.
  The paper embellishments are from the Fancy Pants Summer Sun collection and for the cover of the mini I added a button from the Oh the places we'll go flair set.






These are all the products that I've used, with links to them in the store.

Thank you for stopping by today!
