Excitement Abound -- NEW 7 Dots Studio COORDINATES!

Whoop WHOOP! This is always my favorite time of the season... NEW PRODUCT RELEASE! 

Today I get to share with you a few things -- first is the new paper lines from 7 Dots Studio that I designed... with coordinating products. Second is the even more coordinating products I designed for UmWowStudio to carry! and third.. are the AWESOME OUT OF THIS WORLD AMAZEBALLS kits we put together called SHEBANGS. 

that's right folks.. SHEBANG time is here! 

If you wanna skip all the words and yada yada just CLICK HERE to see all the new releases. 

or... feast your eyes upon the first of the two new collections... DREAMSCAPES

it's oh so dreamy and full of vintage feminine tones. there's some mark making. there's some some fading. there's some grunge. there's some geometry.. it's all there. it's all good. 

AWESOME!

There's stencils, chipboard, flair, die cuts, tags, stickers, sentiments, stamps, 12x12 paper AND 6x6 paper. le gasp. it's all so good!

The second collection is called HAZY DAYS:

There's a big shout out to Fiona Paltridge because she scanned in some awesome negatives that I played with to bring out the vintage tones in this line. um. YUM! reminds me of days passed.

It has all the same goodies as the first SHEBANG only in different tones & patterns. just... yes plz! I'm so happy with these lines... and so PROUD. but here's the nitty gritty :

They are on PRESALE for a short (SHORT) period of time. Until April 9th. NINE DAYS. Get them for $90 shipped domestic, an extra shipping charge applies to international. Just click the images above to be taken to each SHEBANG.

Dream a Little Dream Visual Journal Page with Jen Matott

 

Hi UmWow Studio fans!  I'm here to share a little tutorial on how to create with lots of fun textures and use UmWow Studio Mask/Stencils!  This visual journal page was done with the UmWowStudio Star Confetti Mask , Circle Confetti Mask, and Cicada Mask.  

 I used a Unity Stamp set that had a stitched look.  I added stars with the UmWow Studio Star Confetti Mask, Faber-Castell Design Memory Craft Iced Chai Gelato® from the Steampunk color set, and Faber-Castell Design Memory Craft Glass Bead Glitter Gel through the mask!   To apply the Gelato® color through the stencil, use a foam applicator to pick up some of the color from a non-stick craft mat.  Rub through the stencil in a circular motion.  It creates a soft effect.  I added a bit more through the Circle Confetti Mask in different colors.  

 Then, I used a palette knife to apply the Glass Bead Glitter Gel through the stencil and allowed it to dry.  You will know it's dry because it turns from white to clear in color.  Some dripped, watered-down Gelato® was added for more shimmer.

 I used a Faber-Castell Design Memory Craft PITT Artist pen in a small tip to draw through the Cicada Mask!  I love this winged beauty!  I added a bit more scribble to it for interest. 

 Faber-Castell Design Memory Craft introduced a new product at CHA and it is gorgeous on the UmWow Studio chip!  Texture Lux can be brushed on or built up with texture tools.  I just brushed it on in silver and gold on some UmWow Studio Star Confetti and Layered Star Chip.

 Some Crate Paper rub ons were added and the Layered Star Chip was added last. I love working in layers in my journals.  Simple shapes can become very complex and show depth with lots of layers.

 The theme of the page was Dreams and I wanted it to look sparkly and whimsical! Lots of layers create texture and a fun page!

 I hope you enjoyed this little tutorial on how I created this page!  Thanks for visiting today!

My Creation:

I need daylight all day long so that I can take better photos.. even when I wait till the last minute ;)

I have also managed to base my tags off of Linda (The Funky Junkie)'s 12 tags! So I will be linking up there each day :) Today's is linking to tag 3 -- I swear I start with Linda's tags as inspiration -- I love the "old music sheet" that she's created (i'm assuming with vellum and a heat gun) so I tried to do something similar with my sentiment.. and in my head I was thinking "Believe... wish... dream" and so forth! I do love vintage browns/tea dyes and such.. but I also love some nice color -- so this one does not match in tones ;) 

Thanks for stopping by!! You're on your way to Susan's Blog next!!!
