Bad Ass B!tch - Mixed Media Canvas

Hey guys -- DeeDee here today sharing an INCREDIBLE mixed media canvas that I just happened to receive... as a GIFT this Christmas!

Oh yes.. you read that right.. this little beauty is ALL MINE. Created by a dear local friend > Tina Wacker (Christine.) I don't have many details, but we can all admire it's beautiful textures & layers. I chose this blog to put it on because in all her delightful layers she's included LOADS of UmWowStudio chipboard.

Stoppin' by with a QUICKIE

HEY! UmWowStudio Fans.....

Thanks for stopping by the blog to check out my quickie!

As I mentioned in my last post

LIFE has been OUT of CONTROL....lately!

Everything in me wants to create some deeply creative

work of art for the blog.....

but ALL i have time for lately is a QUICKIE!

The inspiration for this 'Tovers ATC was the "leftover" 

stamped words, "OUR HEART", 

which are part of a larger quote, and

the heart shaped piece of vintage embroidery. 

I picked up a 'Tover ATC that I had made by soppin' up excess

Heavy Body Acrylic from a project I had completed previously.

Next, I went to my UmWowStudio bin and pulled out 

a baggie with

UmWowStudio ~ Layered Hearts

I pulled out my tubes of paint and painted my hearts

with an ombre look.

Next,

a leftover piece of

burlap 

wire mesh 

and string

topped off with a wire spiral.

Hope you enjoyed my 'Tover Quickie!

I think this ATC will end up on the front of a card.

Thank You for stoppin' by!!!!!

....and Be Creative!

My Altered PAINTBRUSH ~ a bucket list item

Hi UmWowStudio Fans!!!

Lynne Forsythe here....

I can't hardly believe it's Fall already....

where did my summer go??

My Heart and I have spent some time this summer
doing a few bucket list items. 

And I checked one off my list

an Altered Paintbrush.

I stumbled upon an Antique Store and found

a bucket with some old paintbrushes in it. 

I picked the one I liked....

brought it home 

and it sat

and it sat,

and it sat

on one of my work tables

until recently!!

Now, you may have seen my post on the

UmWowStudio Embellishments page. 

I worked at my paintbrush,

and I picked at 

and I arranged and rearranged it.

I was torn....color or no color.

I pondered on this question and more for days!!

and decided on.....only a little color.

Do you see the UmWowStudio Chippies??

Leaf Stems

and one from

Leafy Mash

painted green also.....

Alpha One

placed randomly on the paintbrush.

I have to say.....I LOVE how my paintbrush came out!

LOTS of Texture with a touch of color!!

Thank you for stopping by the blog to

check out my latest creation

and bucket list item!

Hello!

Today I'd like to share my newest art journal page. This small piece of mixed media is my daily reminder to not be complacent, to not limit myself to what I know and am comfortable with, but to look further afield, to be open minded, flexible to fully explore life.

I used two different stencil: Damask & Dahlia and some different chipboards. 

I hope you'll feel inspired ;)

Hello everyone! 

I'm here today with my last creation for the year 2016. 

With Christmas behind us – it’s time to think about the New Year.  

Open your eyes, 

look at the bright day awaiting you, 

forget all bad dreams 

and start afresh. 

Wishing you a wonderful New Year!

Hello Dears!

I thought I'd share a new layout that was so much fun to create and that I hope will make you feel inspired! In my project I was trying to capture the "cold and frosty" feeling. 

I used:
