I decided to make some of the salt dough ornaments that I have seen popping up all over pinterest lately.  They were easy enough to make just make sure they are completely dry before doing anything with them.  I wanted them a little bit whiter so I put  on a few layers of bright  white fine embossing powder.  I stamped a tree in the dough and it left a nice imprint when it dried.  It was from the deck the halls stamp set and for the star I used the WOW embossing pen and hand wrote the word joy.  The possibilities are endless, I can't wait to get them all done and on the tree.  I will post  more pictures when I get them all up.   Jenifer

Hi this is Jenifer here with you today.  Decadence to me means black, white, red, damask and classy. I have a simple little notebook out of scrap paper.  Stamp the Vintage Wallpaper and Emboss with the Black Ebony powder.  Hold you scrap paper together with some binder clips and add a couple layers of glue to the edges so that they all are held in place.  Once the glue is dry you can adhere to the inside, I used Super Tape from ThermOWeb.  To decorate the cover I used a coffee filter for my ruffle with some ribbons layered on top.  For the flower center I used Cable Car red with just a little sprinkle of the Kalahari Gold glitter and adhered to the center. Thank you so much for looking at my project today I hope you check back often for more inspiring ideas and participate in the monthly challenge.

Hi this is Jenifer here with you today to share this fun canvas I made. I started out with a canvas that I had messed up on and was just laying around.  The first step was to scrunch up a couple layers of wax paper and  mod podge them to the canvas.  After that I used some spackling that I got from Home Depot and added a nice textured layer on top of the was paper.  I then took another sheet of wax paper and scrunched it up and went to town with my WOW powders.  I put the versamark pad directly on the paper not worrying about getting into all the nice little cracks.  After cutting out my embossed waxed paper into 3x3 squares I mod podged them to the canvas, at this point I felt they were a little to bright so I put a thin layer of white paint over the top and it went into the cracks and I was very happy with the results.  Then it was the layering of all the fun elements.
Here is a close-up of  all the details. I hope you have enjoyed my project today, it really is amazing what you can d…

Hi, everybody! I hope your week is off to a great start. I have a cute birthday card for you today. The good thing about this card is that it is designed to work just as well for a male as for a female. In my opinion, it's always good to have a few unisex cards on hand for those last minute occasions. I used WOW Cable Car Red and Earthtone Blueberry, both from the Suzy West Collection of Embossing Powders. I used the red around the outer edges of the yellow background paper as well as the checked pattern on the banner. The Blueberry was used on the sentiment and I outlined it in white gel pen to make it look hand painted, sort of like graffiti, and also to make it show up really well. The stamp I used for the sentiment is from the WOW Stamp set called "Everyday Sentiments" and for the checks on the banner was from "Funky Border Strips".


I wasn't sure I was going to be crazy about the primary color scheme but after I finished it, I decided that I really like …

Hello everyone, Erika Taylor here and I'm so glad to be back creating again. Although the process is taking a little more time, the break was so needed and I feel that I've gotten a little more clarity.

Today i'm sharing with you a project filled with love. I used a combination of Whirly Pop, Cable Car and Opague Pastel Pink Wow Embossing powders to create this "Lovely" home decor item. I wanted something that could actually stay up all year long and found this beautiful charger plate on sale for $2.00 for the base of the project.

Here are a few photos for ya

First off a photo of the materials I used. Feathers, a charger plate, wooden hearts and letters, and my favorite Wow Embossing Powders.



a close up of the heart for you as well. I love marbling two or three colors of Wow Embossing Powders together for a great textural effect.


I used a few Valentines sprigs and some May Arts lace as well to give a little more UMPH to the project.



 The wooden letters have been emboss…

Hi Jenifer here with you today to share this quick and easy Valentines card.  I used the Call me and the Gratitude Stamp sets.  I embossed the large postage stamp in the Metallic Silver and the heart from Cable Car red.  I cut the hearts apart and popped them up with a Foam Square from Therm O Web.  I wrote Love with the Wow embossing pen and used Cable Car red to make it stand out. I wrapped the card a few times with some bakers twine from May Arts and I have a quick but beautiful card for my honey for Valentines Day.  You still have time now go make one.

Well I told you I would be back and today I am going to share with you a project that the girls have been helping me with.  End of school year all ways gets the girls excited as we make all the teachers a thank you present.  This year we have decided on making a little reusable gift bag to full with Christmas teats,  its just little but lets the teachers know that we appreciate what they do for our kids.

Here is what we got up to

I popped the handles inside so we did not get any Metallic Silver on them. I then covered my box in versemark and embossed the entire box Metallic Silver  I popped the handles out and covered them in versamark and poured  Cable Car Red Regular over and heat set.  Here's a handy wee tip.  ALWAYS pop excess powder back into container before turning your heat gun on.  This way you wont blow it everywhere. 
Finished product after the kids had fun adding some tissue tape, tinsel and bling.  I made a small tag to hang wishing a Merry Christmas.
Hope you enjoyed my wee sh…

Well, it's getting closer to Christmas so I thought I would share a Christmas card with a poinsetta that I made using some WOW embossing powder and embossing pen. 


First you need sets of petals and leaves. You can hand draw and cut them or use a die cut if you have one. You will need 3 largest in green, 5 medium in red, 3 small in red and 5 extra small in red. It's actually easier to hand draw them, that way you can just use the embossing pen to draw and then emboss and cut out last. If you draw the petals, just draw a line down the center of each and add "veins"! Curl them upward from the center slightly. Below is a picture of my finished leaves before putting them together.

I used Cable Car Red powder and Tea Garden Green. I sprayed them all with gold glitter spray also!

I cut a small circle for a base from red cardstock and then just started adhering the petals with glue dots in layers like pictured below:


Last, I added the little gems for the centers. I used some old…

Hello everyone!! Tanisha here with with a really cool embossing technique that I used to create acrylic embellishments.  I grabbed my purple cows laminator and hot pockets, embossing ink, WOW's Gratitude Stamp set, powders in a few different colors, and circle dies.

I started by stamping the "looped squiggle" inside the hot pocket and then coated with WOW embossing powders (I did one color at a time).
 Once all of the stamped images were covered with embossing powders, I placed the pocket on a piece of cardstock, to prevent curling, and ran it through the lamintor.

The heat from the laminator melts (and seals) the powders, leaving you with an acrylic sheet to work with.  At this point, you can use the acrylic sheet as is...
...or pull out your dies and put them to work!  I wanted to create a banner, so I die cut circles and cut some of them in half and stitched them across the top of my layout.


I used the other circles to highlight embellishments and create a visual triangle…

Hi, it's Gini here to share a fun fall project with you. I recieved this cute burlap bag earlier in the week, and knew that it would be so fun to alter it as the perfect little gift bag. I cut metal leaves using Cheery Lynn Designs Dimensional Large Leaves. I love the deep embossed patterns. I pulled out some of my favorite fall colors from Wow Embossing Powders and inked the leaves with Versamark. When you heat emboss the metal, it heats up fast - so make sure to hold it with tweezers or lay them on a heat resistant mat. The metal tends to shine through the embossing powder and makes a gorgeous charm for your bag.

Hi everyone! Amy Prior here today to share a fabulous and easy little tutorial on how to make your own Pin Striped backgrounds. Best thing about stripes is they never seem to go out of fashion!!!!

Today I am going to create a card and although I am starting off with this amazing fun 6x6 paper from Prima, I am actually going to create my own background using this baby as a base. First off you will need some Double Sided Tape in any size you like. I decided to use 3 different sizes here. 

Rip off pieces of the Double Sided Tape and place them on your page to make stripes. You can do them as close or as far apart as you like and you can do any pattern you like if you are using more than 1 thickness. 

Once the Double Sided Tape is all adhered, trim off the excess using your craft knife or a pair of scissors. I found this step easier by flipping it all upside down and using my craft knife carefully.

Next step of course is to remove the backing off the tape. My girls helped with this part LOL t…
