Winter Joy card + Video Tutorial

Hi everyone!

It's Fran here with you today with a video tutorial in which I create this festive Winter card using WOW! Fab Foils, embossing powders along with showing you how to create your own DIY embellishment (which gets the full WOW! treatment!).


I used a selection of powders on the project to alter and add some seasonal sparkle; Silver Hologram Sparkle, Vintage Peacock embossing glitter, Opaque Bright White plus my favourite Copper Fab Foil.  Stamping always gives a complete look to background areas, and on this project I added subtle snow flurry details with the mini background stamp from WOW's Let It Snow set.



Customising chipboard letters with Fab Foil is such a fun and easy way to alter and add some shine.



I hope you enjoy the tutorial!





Wishing you all a very Merry & Bright festive season. xxx Fran

The Journey - Mixed Media Textures Card

Hey everyone! I hope you are well and feeling creative today. This month's blog project theme is Summer and I went for a less obvious route as inspiration for the project; journeys. Summer is all about holidays, trips out, getting out and enjoying the light, warmth (occasionally!) and possibilities it brings.



I firstly gessoed the front of the card and added the main texture of tulle net which I adhered with soft gel medium, sprinkled with embossing powders onto then melted with a heat tool . Using a WOW! Clear Ultra Slow Drying Embossing pad to tap around the edges of the card I then sprinkled with Copper powder to add a dramatic metallic highlight. 


On top of the net details I added a foiled die cut star and stamped leaf from the Feathers of Fancy with the Clear Ultra Slow Drying Embossing pad. I sprinkled the images with Bonding Powder then melted with a heat tool and lightly pressed Teal and Copper Fab Foil onto the stamped details. Leave to cool, lift off and hey presto! …

Create with WOW: my wall canvas art

Hello my dear crafty friends and welcome to my first post in 2015!
 This is Irit here and I just want to wish you all a very Happy New Year!

This is a month of home deco/OOP projects  and I made a steampunk canvas with a word I picked for 2015: Create.
So now let's see the project.
This is a kind of " steampunk art" made over canvas with a lot of mediums and a lot of WOW! EMBOSSING POWDERS.


I used masks with texture paste and then added a mix of embossing powders over the wet steampunk shapes. The mix ofBlackEbony regular powder,Black Glint and Blue Glitz made this effect over the masked images.
The chipboard piece was covered with Metallic Copperpowder and then totally embedded into clear embossing powder with a drop of brown re-inker to get this clear glass look.
Each metal and chipboard shape was also covered with Clear  Gloss embossing powder  for the glossy look, but mostly the anti dust issue as we are talking about on the wall project.
 Here and there the small po…

Song Birds

Hello WOW! fans!  Jan here to share a fun project using  Metallic Copper Ultra High and Clear Mat Dull Regular.  I like to use WOW Embossing Powder on metal because it adds such a nice texture and a splash of color.  Here's a bird cage I bought at a thrift store and using versa mark ink pad to ink random areas, I heat embossed with Copper.  The paper line is one of my favorites by Graphic 45, "Song Bird".
I've used Clear Mat Dull for the bird at the top of the cage. Here's a closer peek inside the cage.
