Tone-on-Tone-on-Tone!

Hi there! Emily Midgett back with you today for my second guest post for WOW! Embossing! Today, I have a pretty, feminine card for you using lots of pretty peachy-pink and even some sparkles, so let's get started with the details! 

I began by heat embossing that absolutely gorgeous Rebecca Lace background from Simon Says Stamp using WOW's Soft Mango embossing powder on some beautiful Peony (SSS|EH) card stock. The Peony card stock is a lovely shade of soft pink, and the Soft Mango is just a tad darker shade of coral, which makes for a very pretty tone-on-tone combination! This stamp is also super detailed, and the WOW embossing powder picked up every single detail just beautifully.   

I wanted a sparkly greeting, so I created some custom glitter card stock using the WOW Bridal Sparkles. I began by adding some 1" Scor Tape (a heavy duty tape adhesive) to some card stock, then die cut the lovely "smile" (SSS|EH) from The Stamp Market from this adhesive card stock…

Focus on SPARKLES glitter | Zsoka

Hi guys,
Zsoka here with you today to share my latest projects for the WOW! Embossing Powder Design Team! 
This month our theme is "Sparkles" and I took it quite literally, using SPARKLES glitter ha! I have never used glitter in my life if you can believe it, so I actually had to check what to do with it hahaha!  I went with the same idea as on my other two cards I've created for our monthly challenge on Facebook (you can see them in this album).

Basically I just added adhesive (different types: glue dots, double sided adhesive and liquid glue). I then poured SPARKLES on my die cuts - I've used  Stroke of Midnight on these cards! I didn't trust the glue to hold forever so I added a thick layer of Nuvo Crystal Glaze. It turned out pretty cool, like  a silicon type material, totally bendable!
I made two A2 size, top folding card bases and added the two stamped panels I had made before. I used the awesome Happy Plaids stamp to create my backgrounds. I didn't hav…

Create your own glitter paper with Jo

Hi all, Jo here and welcome to todays blog post where I make my own full panel of glitter cardstock. 
I also played with Pink & Main Butterfly cover die which I have die cutted the whole panel.
To start the process I pressed the Ultra Slow Drying Embossing Ink directly on the white cardstock coating the whole panel.
I then generously poured the Cloud 9 embossing glitter all over the panel which I then heat set it with the NEW Embossing Tool. 


Put your hands up if you have purchased this heat tool yet?  The Design Team are having an absolutely fun time with it and can not express who much we love it. 
Once I have heat set the embosing glitter I place the cover die directly on top and die cut te panel.  Let me tell you this panel cut like butter dtraight through the glitter. You can see in my process video that it also came out really easy out of the cover die. 

I then placed the sentiment in the MISTI tool and lined this up with the rectangle die cut. I used a sof grey tone ink wh…

Guest Designer - Ardyth Percy-Robb

Please welcome our August guest designer ........... I started cardmaking in 2006, at a Stampin' Up! Party and have never looked back. I started my blog, MASKerade in 2012 to share my work and become part of this amazing community! I live in Toronto, Canada, with my husband and 2 teenaged children. In 2017, I started making quick tutorial videos which are on my YouTube channel. I love clean, graphic design with bold colours and lots of white space. My favourite cards are the ones where stamps are used in unexpected ways to create something fun!  I'm thrilled to be a Creative Guest this month!
Hello! It's Ardyth here from MASKerade and I'm thrilled to be a Creative Guest for the month of August! Heat embossing is a magical part of cardmaking - remember how amazed you were when you first saw the powder melt and transform? I certainly do, and 12 years later, I still get that feeling every time I pull out my heat gun!
Today I used a rainbow of embossing glitters and a simple…
