Go LARGE with your UWS Chipboard Shapes!

Hello and Happy Thursday!

Tina here today with a project that is living LARGE!

The Ray Background Chip is one of my UWS favorites!  I have used it on several layouts and you just might see it again in the future.  It's one of those chips that is extremely versatile and is just the perfect touch for any project.

For this layout, I wanted the Chip to be the main embellishment on the page, so the balance of my layout is basically patterned paper and stickers.

I painted the Ray Background chip with a quick coat of gesso, then embossed the entire piece with chucking embossing powder.  It looks simply divine!

Sometimes the simplest technique is the most effective.

I adhered a few of my glittered Butterfly Confetti pieces left over from a previous project for a pop of color and glitz!

So next time you want a BOLD statement on a layout, go LARGE!  :)

Thank you for stopping by!  Have a wonderful week!

UWS products:

Ray Background chippie

Wild Flower set flair

Avery Elle 'Bright Days' set

May Arts  Pink Waxed Cord, and Webbed Weave Ribbon 

I altered the UWS Ray chipboard with gesso, Kroma crackle medium, color shine and PearlEx powders.

I used the AE sunburst stamp all over the background, then used the MA Webbed Weave Ribbon as a stencil with high gloss gel medium. I also made my own "enamel dots" by stamping with the small AE circle in pink then covering the dots with Glossy Accents. Then I outlined the pink circles with MA Pink Waxed Cord ribbon.

The final touches to the page were the AE chevron arrows and UWS Wild Flower flair.

I’m Aimee a past owner of a scrapbook boutique who has a passion for paper & has way too much of it! I have always been a crafter. I officially started scrapping in 200ish. I’m a so Cal native who loves the sun, lattes, shopping, my boyfriend and 2 dogs. I work from home, which allows me to travel with my parents and their race car.


Hey there, I’m so excited to be here at UmWowStudio as a guest designer today.

Today I have two projects to share. First one is a layout I made using to different chipboard products, a background and confetti.

If you cant tell, I love to layer, and the Spooky Branch is perfect for just that! I added the Butterflies “flying” as if they just blossomed from caterpillars into the big wide open.

 Next I have a Pocket Scrap Page to share with you. I absolutely love the look of pocket scrapping. I haven’t quite got the hang of it but I like to play around. I thought the Ray Background was perfect to represent the sun rising. I love the simplicity of this page and the dramatic punch it gives to an album.

Thanks for stopping by the UmWowStudio blog today and checking out my projects.
