Hi this is Jenifer here with my family project.  I did a fun messy layout of my family to give you an idea of how fun and messy Wow can be.   Step 1:  Using the funky boarder strip stamp and the clear gloss super fine embossing powder stamp on the dots.  This will be your first layer.  Heat set. Step 2:  Using some sprays or even some water color paint over the embossed dots.  The embossed dots act as a resist and the fun colors will make them POP. Step 3:  Layer!! Layer!! Layer :)  first I did the thread then I dug into my scrap bin and put together some flags along the bottom of my picture.  The fun scallop along the bottom of my picture is a doily that I cut apart.  Step 4:  When everything is adhered in place attach some flowers and a WOW flower center.  I used opaque pastel blue and cotton candy with the Melt it and got this fun swirl effect.  Last but not least I wrote family in the bottom corner with a WoW pen and ebony embossing powder to complete my page.
I hope you have enj…

Summer is almost over but I still have a few more birthdays and weddings to attend. What I love about these events are the cakes, especially layered ones! 
I came across a tutorial on this technique while feeding my addiction to YouTube. 
Using paper scraps (who doesn't have a mountain of these), you can cut rectangles to put together into a layered cake. 
Start with a sketch, on cardstock, of the cake that will fit your card and be the base of your card creation. 


Step two is to cut rectangle shapes from various paper scraps to fit the layered shapes in your sketch. 





Step three is to adhere the layers to the sketch. You can choose to outline each layer for a little more  emphasis. 

The final steps are to cut out the cake and emboss it with a layer of regular or ultra high clear, glitter or any other delicious Wow embossing powder to give this cake it's body and luster. 
The mini cakes are great for cards, scrapbook pages or gift tags.







You don't need hours or a special recipe for t…

It feels like spring already arrived in Northern California. The weather has been warm and sunny all week. I know next week will bring fog and rain, so I took advantage of the weather while I could.

I've been wearing lighter, brighter colors and my mood lightened with it. As I was thinking of my project for today, I channeled my mood and colors into a card.

I could not quite decide between a gift card holder and a birthday card, so I did both.

The stamps are all from WOW!'s new release "Make a Wish" stamp set (STAMPSET16).



The technique is layering a few mats and stamped sheets to create a split, dimension effect. I used measurements shared by Dawn Olchefske, a stamping demonstrator and avid crafter on her YouTube video from last summer. I tried to do my own measurements, but was failing miserably. So, I started with hers and adjusted them a bit to include the gift card holder (see these notes at the end). 

Dawn's Measurements: Largest Section: Base - 8 1/2" x …

Hi there and welcome to the WOW blog today!

Last weekend I have been teaching some fun workshops at a Dutch scrapbook store called Scrap4Fun.
In one of the workshops we used WOW Embossing Powder to spice up our canvasses.



Do you notice that I put all the cans up-side-down? That's how I store them in my studio too. Makes finding the right color a lot easier :)
This project is one of the examples i made for the class:


After creating the texture for the background and all the painting we finished the canvas with adding a lot of interest using WOW Embossing Powders.
We stamped and embossed all the circles around the book paper circles and used Punchinella stars and dots to create extra texture.




Colors used: Suzy West Cotton Candy regular, Wow Magical Mauve Embossing glitter, Wow Earthtone Grape, Wow Earthtone Pomegranate, Wow Opaque Bright White regular.
And here are some of the results. Don't you just love how they all turned out so differently?!

Thank you for stopping by and have a wonde…

Hello everyone and welcome to the Wow Embossing Powders Blog. Today is Challenge day and that means you are all invited to play along.We'd love to see your creations so listen up!!!

Erika Taylor here, and for this months challenge, I have decided to CREATE COLOR ONLY WITH EMBOSSING POWDERS!!! That's right, The challenge this month is to create a project that is either black, white, or kraft and ALL the color is made by using EMBOSSING POWDERS. Sound hard? I know you can do it!!!

To give you a little inspiration for this, I've created a layout using Silver, Cotton Candy, Opaque Primary Azure and Berrylicious embossing powders. 

Here are a few close ups of the layout for you to see. The frames, and stars are all shimmery from the Silver Embossing Powder. Love these colors!!!





Now for the entire layout. A great way to use those embossing powders to create interest and color on any project.


Now it is your turn. Once you have created your project using embossing powders as the ONLY F…
