Wedding Layouts

HOWDY.....UWS Fans

Hope all is WELL!

I recently have gone back to my creative roots....
and created 2 scrapbook pages.
I began the process by printing out bunch photos family photos.
I was drawn to pictures from my daughter's wedding.

My first choice was to create a page
of a special moment with my daughter.

I then went to my stash of  UmWowStudio chippies
to find one I thought would go well.
I chose one from my
Signature Collection with UmWowStudio

Large Ivy

I found one of UmWowStudio's word chippies

Adore

The ABSOLUTE PERFECT accents!

Something Old, Something New

Something Borrowed, Something Blue

I painted the UmWowStudio ~ Large Ivy with a bit of Glimmer Glam.

I chose to keep the UmWowStudio chippie ~ Adore natural.

Here is the other layout I created using another of
my Favorite photos from that special day!

I pulled out UmWowStudio chippie ~ Leafy Branch
from my Signature collection.

I painted the chippie with a bit of green paint

and cut it apart to nestle into my flowers.

Thank you for stopping by to take of peek at my layouts!
Until next time.....Be Creative!

It's a wedding....by Lynne Forsythe

Hi UmWowStudio Fans.....

I created a card to celebrate

the upcoming wedding of a LOVELY couple.

Since the day I received the

UmWowStudio Ampersand chippie....

I have been looking for the opportunity to use it....

and that day FINALLY ARRIVED!

The base of my card is
a CCB Greeting Card Kraft with Canvas.

I then applied Pearl Plaster through the 

UmWowStudio ~ Handwriting Stencil.

 I sprayed and splattered various
Mist and Glams onto the card face to create subtle color. 

Next, I pulled out some vintage lace and
adhered it to the face of my card.....

I took the UmWowStudio Ampersand
and painted on a bit of Pearl Plaster,

which I heated to cause it to bubble.
(LOVE THE LOOK!)

I then randomly splattered on a bit of
Glam for an additonal splash of color.

FOR ONCE....I chose to use no verbage on my creation
to let the Ampersand say it all!

Lastly, I pulled out a few roses and painted on a bit of
Glam to accent the flowers.
What would a wedding card be without flowers?

I LOVE how my card came out....
and I wish the couple the BEST in the future.

May Arts - Round 2!

Our round 2 submissions are due Friday for May Arts.. Yay for getting it done before the last second :)

For my submission I've chosen to do a wedding ensemble. I gathered supplies to make a ring barer's pillow, a cuff (either as a gift for the bridesmaids or for the Bride) and a hair piece.

First off we need a gorgeous center piece for our ring barer pillow.. And May Arts Ribbon certainly fills that slot! Prima had a flower called the Gatsby Collection in which they used ribbons folded over and tied in the middle to create a flower, but they were sort of flimsy and didn't have much body. Using May Arts Ribbon gives us an endless supply of possibilities in texture, color, material and width making our flowers absolutely customizable to whatever we're working on. For this particular flower I chose three substantial sturdy ribbons eliminating the need for tulle or other "fillers".

The three used for this portion of the project are:

350 5/8"x50y SHEER/RUFFLE EDGE (350-58-94)

384 3/4"x20y LACE/PEARL CENTER

and the
SD 3/8"x50y - SOLID/CENTER DOT

The ribbons are wrapped around a center spot and tied together. They're fluffed and spread apart to mimic petals on a flower and are finished off with a pretty center. You could use stamen, vintage jewelry, beads, and anything else. I chose to use two pearls and a bicone bead. Here's a video with the details:

And here is the whole ensemble:

I also utilized two other ribbons by May Arts:

.398 2.5"x10y Burlap/Wired
and the
392 58"x10y SHEER / BOX PLEAT (392-58-09)

as well as pearls, a bicone bead, burlap thread, muslin, glue, a needle, thread and a sewing machine, pillow fluff, vintage buttons, cardstock, cheese cloth and vintage photo distress stain.

If you have any questions I'd be happy to answer them :)
