Travel the world

Hello everyone,

Welcome to my post where today I have made a tag.


This tag was made with a piece of pattern paper. I scraped gesso over it and then added some Glimmer Mist through the UmWow Dahlia stencil. Next I added some darker bits with a Stabilo All pencil and some water. After adding the washitape I glued on the Penny Farthing. I didn't think it needed anything doing to it. Lastly I added a sentiment which I made out of Chitchat stickers by Tim Holtz. 





You will find the Penny Farthing HERE.


and the Dahlia Stencil HERE


Thank you for stopping by today !

....my apologies!

Howdy UmWowStudio Fans....

I have been a BAD DT member this summer!


The summer began with a house clean out
and ended in a total house renovation.
I have been the "super", designer and painter extraordinaire!
....leaving me not time to create!


....my word for this summer!

BUT....
today I was inspired by a fellow Designer and #halfanhourcreate
so I told my mind to hush and I got to creating!

I began by pulling out a previously created tag
and picked up a few #tovers off my floor
(don't be hating on me!)
and let my creative juices go....

I then gathered a few items
 an ArtFoamie stamp 
and a bit of Glimmer Mist (left on my desk from a previous creative session)
 and a piece of paper mesh from my floor.

....and by golly 
there were a few packages of flowers on the floor, too!!
So, I altered them with various Tattered Angels colors.

I gathered up a piece of vintage curtian 
a bit of newly acquired fleece,
paper scraps
(yes, from my floor!!)

and a UmWowStudio chippie

(I was so happy to see it on my desk)

I put all the goodies together and
finished off my creation
with a FABULOUS quote from
Yvonne Blair/Impression Obsession.
(TOTALLY HOW I FEEL)

She was herself again

Hello everyone, 

I hope you are well ! A very warm welcome to my inspiration post ! I have made an Art Journal page this time and this is it:



This was great fun to make... here's how:



I used three of these shapes from the Doodle Mash; I wanted them to be rusty and used Finnabair's Rust Effect paste. 



This paste works quite well. 


Next I painted some '10 Seconds Studio' Iron paint in three blobs onto the page and added the patina spray. This then went rusty too. Yay, love a bit of rust ! 
When this had dried I glued the shapes on top to make it look like they were there for years! I then stamped the background a little using brown and blue ink. 
Next I painted an additional piece of paper with the same paint and did an image transfer with one of UmWow's new digitals. She is called 'girl with pearls'. I placed her onto some Sari ribbon and some book text and adhered her with some dimensional tape. 



I hope I could inspire you to make something with Chipboard! 

Here's what I have used:

I am home

Hello everyone,

welcome to my blogpost. I totally love the Tiny Houses Mash chipboards and couldn't resist using them again... I made three ATC's on Yupo Paper and made the background with alcohol inks.


I have left the chipboard in its natural form as I like how this looked. 


After the alcohol background had dried I applied some gold foiling. I saw Vicki Papaioannou do this on YouTube but I didn't have as many sticky areas on the ATC's... It was also alsmost impossible to photograph.. but what you do is apply foil to areas that have lots of ink. These areas stay very sticky and are a good base for foiling..


I also added one stamp to ground the houses on and some gold coloured washitape. 


You can just see the gold foil in the top left corner... 



I have used these chipboards:


You will find them HERE.
