Throwback Thursday - Authentique & UmWowStudio

Welcome back to our final installation of THROWBACK THURSDAY!! We're Swappin' n Hoppin' n Inspirin' with the team over @ Authentique. 

We're using oldie but goodie products from both companies in an effort to share some great TBT inspiration with you! We're also inviting you to complete a project of your own using both UmWowStudio and Authentique products (any and all products qualify!) Link up at the bottom of the post and be entered to win a prize pack full of Authentique and UWS goodness! Ends the end of November♥ Need some UmWowStudio to help?? Check out this promotion!

Today we have CHRISSY up first with this amazing mini using the Curiosity collection by Authentique.

Chrissy says "Here's a book I made for my son so that he learns to set goals. The book was super easy to make and Authentique's "Curiousity" 6x6 pad was perfect. Add some Geekery Flair and Star Confetti for the perfect finishing touches and you have a cute little daily reminder to carry in a book bag or purse."

Next up is a 12x12 by Jess Mutty:

Jess Says: I used the two lovely lines from Authentique: Be(you)tiful and Blissful. They coordinate perfectly with each other and happen to be focused on one of my favorite color combos, gray and yellow. They were also the perfect choice to use for this photo of my little fashionista in her gray and yellow market skirt.

Of course the touch of pink adds just the right amount of girly, along with sweet UmWowStudio confetti hearts, love speech bubbles, and the cute polka dot flair from The 2 of Us set. That's a lot of love!

The speech bubbles and heart confetti are a match made in heaven for this little cluster above my photo. I love them!

UWS products:
Symbol Mash Chip
Heart Confetti
The 2 of Us Flair
Love Speech Bubbles

Other products:
Paper, diecuts - Authentique

and finally I bring you a card today:

I used the Tradition Collection by Authentique + the Squirrel chip from UmWowStudio. The Snowflakes at the top are a sneak peek at some new confetti coming soon!! 

Now! Hope over to the Authentique Blog and then get to making your OWN papercraft using Authentique + UmWowStudio to win a prize package full of both!

Instagram Goodness!

Sneak Peek! {Helmar | Epiphany Crafts}

Today I'm up on the Helmar blog with a layout featuring Viva Las VegaStamps! rubber stamps, UmWowStudio chipboard and flair, May Arts Ribbons, Gauche Alchemy tape and punchinella, Helmar adhesive and something rather new to my repertoire .... an Epiphany Crafts oval tool and bubble caps!

Introducing CONFETTI!!!

I will never be "over" our layered pieces.. and actually have a long list of shapes to work on for future layered releases! But I've felt a need for some super tiny teeny itsy bitsy "Confetti" style pieces that could either work with the larger layered bits, or stand alone and represent beautiful chipboard everywhere. 

So today I introduce to you UmWowStudio CONFETTI! 

So far it's available in four shapes (we're working on TONS more!) and come in packages of about 100. Give or take a few :) 

And here's a sneak peek of an upcoming blog hop between May Arts and Scor Pal where I've used the Stars Confetti!!

Confettis available for purchase HERE.

Craft Challenge!!!

It's time for another May Arts Ribbon challenge... The Ribbon Lady graciously hosts these challenges where folks submit their ideas based on criteria, she chooses 25 people to compete and they're all sent some beautiful ribbon...

This month's challenge is "Ink It" and May Arts has paired up with HELMAR! 

Check out the details here.

I was also given the opportunity to create a little inspiration for you and here's a couple of sneak peeks of the project that will air Tuesday!

Mossy Glen Sneak #1

Sneak Peek!

Between Design Teams, publication submissions, and scheduled posts I have sneak peeks up the wazoo to share!!

Are you a sneak peek kind of person? Are they worth sharing to keep the content on my blog evenly spaced and continually engaging? Or should I just wait till you can see the whole kit n kaboodle?

Until you answer here's one for the road! :)

I just uploaded my first official May Arts ribbonista video.. Here's a sneak peek of the project:

Beach Combing Sneak #1

Since I missed yesterday I decided to show TWO parts of this month's kit!!

Insert one message in a bottle, some pacific coast sand, and a weathered wooden fence at least 6 inches long :) 

Something I'm working on...

Thank you all! Thank you for your sweet comments, and encouragement, your continued reading and your support :) 

I recently had a request for some resin clouds.. and as I've been pulling them out of the mold I couldn't help but mess around with a couple... check this out:

CHA Bound Sneak Peek! and a July Kit Project

Being on Design Teams really presents you with some wonderful opportunities.. and in this case it was way out of left field.. 

WOW embossing powder needed some booth fillers, and they asked the Basically Bare DT to help them out :) 

So here is a sneak peek of a piece that will be in the WOW booth - and yes... that IS part of the UmWowStudio July Kit :) -- though I doubt that will be mentioned at CHA ... lol.
