June's Our Mixed Media Moods Challenge

Hi UmWowStudio Fans.....

Spring has popped....
the birds are singing 

and I am in the full throws of preparing the decorations

for my daughters upcoming wedding. 

Due to all the hubbub.....

I have been very lacking in inspiration of late

so I decided to pop over
to our fearless leader challenge....
Our Mixed Media Moods

everything about this mood board made my heart sing.

SOOOO.....I went to my box of UmWowStudio goodies
and decided to challenge myself to create with the
pieces parts that were floating around in the bottom of my box.

I then covered a piece of artboard
with vintage dictionary paper.

When dry, I spritzed it with water and tore off the

loose edges.

I then arranged the leftover chippies on my artboard.

I randomly applied Modeling Paste to the artboard

and used it as an adhesive to hold the chippies in place.

When dry, I applied a layer of Clear Gesso.

I didn't like the look of the semi painted chippies
so I created a slurry of Modeling Paste and water
and painted the chipboard.

When dry I applied another layer of Clear Gesso
to help facilitate the movement of color and water.

Now came the colors. I chose Desert Sun Glimmer Glaze
because I knew when it was dry it would be permanent.

Once dry, I spritzed the canvas with Sapphire Glimmer Mist.

Then, I used a baby wipe to take off some of the Sapphire
to expose more of the yellow.

I painted on a bit more Desert Sun then ran 

my Vintage Photo ink pad over top of the canvas. 

This made my heart sing....again!

I pulled out my package of
UmWowStudio ~ Home Grown Mash

and painted my chosen leaves green.

Here is my finished project.....

Thank you SOOO MUCH for stoppin' by the blog today.

I hoped you enjoyed my creative process....

Lost in my creative journey...

Hi UmWowStudio Fans.....

so HAPPY that you have stopped by the blog today!

I have been in a "gel printing" phase
and here is one of my creations

using a piece of my "printed" paper.

The background is comprised of "gel printing" onto a piece of Tissuestock.

I then adhered it to an artboard.

The printing was a bit dull so I pulled out

my UmWowStudio Bubble Stencil

and applied a bit of texture medium through it
added a bit of Prills to the texture medium for color and texture.

Then I dropped bits of glimmer mist onto the bubbles.

I then cut up a chevron chippie from
UmWowStudios ~ Doodle Mash

Applied a bit of texture medium and colored it with

Silver Sugar glimmer mist.

I finished up my piece with a flower cluster and a sentiment.

Hope you enjoyed my creation!

Our Mixed Media Moods March Challenge

Hi UmWowStudio Fans....

It's me...Lynne!

For my post I decided I would play along
with our Fearless Leader's challenge.....
Our Mixed Media Moods

And just in time for this challenge was the arrival

of a package of goodies from UmWowStudio
and guess what it was wrapped in
mustard yellow tissue paper......confirmation!

So, I pulled out an art board and adhered the tissue paper
and vintage farm weather paper to the board.

From there the layering began....

Do you see the UmWowStudio
Doodle Mash
embedded in the Polishing Plaster??

now to tell on myself....
I WAS REALLLLY STRUGGLING
with the mustard yellow color!

Because of that....I did more layering...

then I applied
and overall spritz of Glimmer Mist.

Still not totally happy I layered on a bit of
Crackle Paint and more Glimmer Glaze and Glimmer Mist.
Finally I was HAPPY!

I had used some of the tissue paper to dab
the products I had added to my canvas,

so I cut out a few flowers.

Do you see the UmWowStudio
Vintage Ladder?

I painted it with the Black Gesso and
spritzed with a bit of Glimmer Mist.

I used a few twigs wrapped with wire.

I finished it off with a FABULOUS QUOTE!

HOPE you enjoyed my creations....
