UmWowStudio New Release......

Hello Creative Souls....

THANK YOU for stopping by my blog and joining
The Mixed Media Monthly Challenge!

Can I just say I am beyond GIDDY!!

UmWowStudio and I have partnered to release....

6 Nature Inspired Chipboard pieces. 

I had a paint lid that was 

kicking around in my studio from 

a decoration for my daughter's bridal party!

I began by painting my lid with
Tattered Angels ~ High Impact Paint ~ White.

I then used The Crafter's Workshop ~ Mini Prismascope

and Light and Fluffy Modeling Paste.

Whey dry I colored my lid with 

Tattered Angels ~ Glimmer Glaze

Galaxy
Pewter and
Saffron

Glimmer Glam ~ Bon Bon

My latest addiction....Relics & Artifacts!

I used one of the "face" resins from Visage and colored it with 

Tattered Angels ~ Glimmer Glam ~ Bon Bon
and Glimmer Glaze ~ Saffron

and accented it with vintage chain cord.

......and there it is......my UmWowStudio ~ Large Ivy

...colored with Tattered Angels ~ Glimmer Glaze ~ Galaxy and Saffron.

I finished off my creation 

by stamping on a piece of TissueStock with Stazon ink
and applying to my lid with Ranger ~ Multi Medium ~ Matte.

I finished off my creation with various twine, lace and chain.

I hope you enjoyed my creation.

All those tags....MMMC Mid Month

Welcome to the Mixed Media Monthly Challenge ~ MidMonth!

Our sponsor this month is...

When working on my first post for the challenge,

I made up a BUNCH OF TAGS.

If you missed it....here is my video on

how I made my tags using stamps fromTopFlight Stamps.

I truly had an AWESOME time working with
my Block Wallah ~ Exotic  and also
Katzelkrafts ~ Clouds stamps.

So.....what does one do with all these "tags"??!??!

You fancy 'em up....

a flower

some leaves
a bit of ticking
a length of wire ribbon
and a loopy bow.

But then what??

You've end up with a pile of tags. 

So I thought I'd try something different.

I decided to cover an artboard with some vintage paper,

added a bit of vintage curtian and
an larger piece of flute.....

to create a tag, worthy of hanging on your wall.

Welcome to my Mid Month post for

The Mixed Media Monthly Challenge....

Our sponsor this month is

StencilGirl Products

There will be one LUCKY winner of a $25 gift certificate.

If you caught my post from the beginning of the month..
I showed you how i created a piece of "background" paper
using StencilGirl Products.

WELL....I had plenty of left over "paper"

so I decided to whip up some ATCs.

I chose to randomly spritz on another

Tattered Angels color to change the

"paper" up a bit!

I have been in an ATC makin' frenzy lately....

so I pulled out various 'TOVERS

(leftover material from previous projects)

to create these little darlings!

I also added a few new little ditties

like this UmWowStudio ~ Crown Mash.

I even made my own flower from

Canvas Corp Brands ~ Kraft Cardstock.

...and I finished off all of my ATC's

with Yvonne Blair Designs ~ Card Sentiments.

What do you do with your have leftover

pieces parts???

Thank you for stopping by and having a peek

of my latest little creations!

I hope you will play along,,,

here is how you can do that......

a dream....is a wish

Hi everyone.....

THANK YOU sooo MUCH

for stopping by my blog.

I am SOOOO EXCITED to be Guest Designing
for

Mixed Media Monthly Challenge.

This month's sponsor is 

with a $25 Gift Certificate!

I created a mood board to base my creation on....
the theme is...

(OK....so a may be a bit shabby rustic
but it works for me!!)

I received a custome designed box from

Canvas Corp Brands to match my board.

Here is end result!

....and this is how i created this 6 x 6 Canvas.

I began by cutting 1.5" squares from

Roma Book Cover

Burlap ~ Lt Pink

C~ Flute ~ Kraft.

I applied the squares to my canvas with Multi Medium.

I then sprayed the entire canvas with

Vanilla Breeze

Vintage Brass

When dry, I lathered on a bit of gesso

and set it aside to dry.

I cut petals for my flower out of

vintage curtains and painted on

Times Square Glimmer Glam.

When it dries....the material

is stiffer and is able to be manipulated.

When drying the petals I crumpled

them in my hand.

When dry, I pinched the fabric together

and stapled it.

I cut a 1" circle from crafter paper

and adhered the petals in layers

with Multi Medium.

As my flower is drying,
I keep manipulating the petals.
With a round brush I painted
on a bit of
Vintage Brass
Chocolate Covered Strawberries.

I had previously applied a layer

of White Stucco which had been drying.

I then dipped my canvas in the left over

ink on my craft mat.

I pulled out a Window chippie,

globbed on gesso.

When mostly dry,

I spritzed the window frame with

Bash

Vintage Brass

When dry I cut a bit of

vintage curtain and adhered it to the back

of my window frame with Multi Medium.

I cut ivy from a piece of linen paper.

I spritzed the entire vine with

Bash

and painted on

Safari Green for contrast.

I spritzed 3 flowers with

Chocolate Covered Strawberries.

I also cut spiral flowers from

Pen & Tell Her.

When everything was dry I put my canvas together.

I began by stapling a piece of

Birch Bark

to my canvas.

Here are a few closeups....

I finished off my canvas with

verbage chosen from

Words for Art.

I hope you have enjoyed my creative process!!

I think I may need to create mood boards

MORE OFTEN.

Thank you to the Mixed Media Monthly Challenge

for offering a guest DT spot.

I TRULY ENJOYED THIS.

MAKE sure to play along with us this month!
