A Quickie Card.......

Life can get BUSY.....

as it has been around my house lately,

celebrating the holidays....

creating for Creativation.....
Then I REALIZED.... I was late for my
UmWowStudio post.

SHAME ON ME!

So....I ran to my craft table to whip up a QUICKIE Card!

I began by randomly covering my card face using various

UmWowStudio Stencils

Flurries Stencil

Handwriting Stencil

Diamond Confetti

I didn't dry the texture medium

between layers as I was looking for

the "white noise" effect

more than complete stencil look.

When the texture medium was dry,

I spritzed a bit of glimmer mist onto

my craft mat and dragged my card through the color.

I then chose 

UmWowStudio Iris Flower chippie

I painted the leaves and stems green

and the Iris's white.

When dry, I painted on a bit of Black Orchid,

my color for 2017,

 and spritzed with a bit of water and dried.

I added a few layers of burlap

and tied a bit of jute around my card to finish it off.

And before I knew it.....my QUICKIE card was READY!

I hope you enjoyed my process

and THANKS FOR STOPPING by!!

Tis the Season.....to make BagTags!

Hi UmWowStudio Fans....

Wanted to share with you my "BagTags"

that I created for "the girls" Christmas presents.

I chose to go with a less than traditional "christmas" look

and went with 7 Dots Studio ~ Homegrown

I chose the following papers......

Homegrown

Snicker

Attic

Once the papers were cut into tags,

I used UmWowStudio's Stencils

Handwriting

and Wheelie Mask

and applied various texture mediums.

The two constants on my tags are....

UmWowStudio Layered Chevrons

I covered the chosen Chevron with

Vintage Photo Distress Ink

and applied

Stampendous ~ Shabby Pink Embossing Enamel

what a STUNNING look!

And diecut Ivy Leaves

cut from CCB ~ Handmade Paper Ivory

colored with Glimmer Glam and Glimmer Mist.

I JUST LOVE how the "Bag Tags" came out....

I hope you have enjoyed my creative journey

as much as I will giving these BEAUTIFUL gifts!!

The Struggle was REAL by Lynne

Hi UmWowStudio Fans.....

Have you ever started a project "greatly inspired"

to have your inspiration peter away and leave you 

STRUGGLING!

Well.....this was one of those projects!

I wanted to play along with this month's

I just LOVED the mood board...
the colors...
the birch tree....
the tree branch....

I COULDN'T WAIT to get started!!

I pulled out my bag of Birch Bark

(NONE of the Birch Bark was removed from a live tree!!)

....a few twigs,

a bit of cream colored fabric

(which I never used)

....an old paper bag

and a 6" x 12" Natural Canvas.

I tore the paper bag to size,

spritzed it with water and manhandled it!

Then, I adhered it to my canvas with Multi Medium Matte.

I applied Polishing Plaster through my

UmWowStudios

Handwriting Stencil.

Then, I pulled out my bag of UmWowStudio's
Alphas One
and applied them in cluster's
adhered with Multi Medium Matte.

When dry, I created a 50/50 mixture

of Glaze Medium and Gesso,

brushed it on my canvas,

waited a minute then wiped it off with baby wipes

until I achieved my desired look!

I was LOVING my canvas....

THEN.....

I added a layer of Glaze Medium and Aged Copper,

....and the struggle began!

I adhered Birch pieces to my canvas...

I struggled....

I splattered on various Glimmer Mists...

I struggled more!

Finally....I had to stop.

So...I decided to take my creation out to the fence

to photograph my creation...
to get a BETTER look at it!

Did I save it??? By adding....

chicken wire

and

UmWowStudio

Home Grown MASH

I dabbed various fall colors, on the chippie leaves,

inspired by the leaves in the mood board

then I shaped the leaves.

I colored a piece of seam binding with various Glimmer Mists

and wrapped it around my canvas

along with a piece of unraveled jute.

Do you see the various hearts nestled in the background??

UmWowStudio

Layered Hearts and

Home Grown MASH

....so there you have it!!

Hope you have enjoyed my struggle....

because it was real!
