Right Now - UmWowStudio

Hello friends!  Today I have a fresh bold layout of my little girl featuring chipboard, flair, and a stencil from the UmWowStudio store!

I used the Checker Board stencil in a couple of ways on my background!

(I had bad lighting while creating my layout, so I apologize for the poor in-progress photos.)

After spreading a layer of clear gesso over a piece of white cardstock and allowing it to dry, I used the Checker Board stencil with a pencil to add some diamond shapes to the cardstock.

I then applied lots of color using sprays/mists, and when dry, I used the Checker Board stencil again, but this time with super heavy gesso, to add some white contrast and texture.

While my layout background was drying, I treated a Distressed Harlequin Background piece and some Diamond Confetti with black acrylic paint.

While the chipboard pieces were drying, I went back to my layout and randomly stamped a triangle stamp around the page with black ink.

Oh the Places You'll Go - UmWowStudio

Hi friends!  I have a sweet 12x12 layout of my little girl to share today, featuring chipboard, flair, and a stencil from UmWowStudio, and inspired by the September mood board at Scrap Around the World.

I chose to leave the chipboard pieces unaltered for this layout. I think their raw color adds nice contrast to this otherwise pastel-colored page.

I tucked some messy thread beneath the chipboard pieces for some fun texture.

I glued this fun piece of flair to the center of this beautiful butterfly chipboard piece, and then adhered this layered embellishment on top of some messy thread with some foam tape.

Oh how I love heavy gesso with stencils! Here I've used the Checker Board stencil on a torn piece of patterned paper.

other products:
patterned paper: Blue Fern Studios
flowers: Prima Marketing
script stamp: Prima Marketing
sprays: Lindy's Stamp Gang, Prima Marketing
misc: date stamp, white thread

Here's the September Scrap Around the World mood board.
I was inspired by the colors- pale blue/pink/wood tones,
the pen- interpreted with the "take note" chipboard title piece,
the script writing- interpreted with the script background stamp,
the quote- interpreted with the "oh the places you'll go" flair,
the twine- interpreted with simple thread,
and the pretty pink rose!
