Hi lovely readers! It's Fran here today with your WOW! inspiration. The hearts silicone mould is so cute I thought I would really go to town with it on this mixed media card.


I firstly stamped a card blank with the arrows stamp from the Sparkle & Shine set then layered with card and cork which I'd punched holes into.


Using the circle stamp from the Pick 'n' Mix stamps to create a pattern around the cork and highlight the punched holes which I'd set adhesive gems into.

For the cork I spread black gesso into the centre to create texture then stuck clay hearts I'd made with the WOW mould into the wet gesso. I sprinkled over Opaque White, Midas Touch and Metallic Gold Rich powders over which I melted with a heat gun. This created a lovely shimmer over the black and the powders picked up the peaks and tooth of the gesso.




Have a wonderful day Fran x

Hi! It's Sandie here today and I am sharing my take on this month's challenge, which is to follow one of the sketches below. 
I chose to follow the top left sketch and this is what I came up with 

I used my papers, which are Sweet Pea from Kaisercraft, to create the layout of the sketch and then stamped lightly over the dotty paper with the De-Vine clear stamp and Brushed Corduroy distress ink.  I then cut a stitched oval from another designer paper and finally a cardstock oval on which I stamped my sentiment from the Make a Wish clear stamp set. 
Also from the Make a Wish set, I embossed a butterfly using Gold Satin Pearlpowder. I trimmed it out using a scissors and added some gold pearl pen down the 'spine' of the butterfly. 

I die cut some flourishes from cream cardstock and embossed them with Chartreuse powder. I layered on my flourishes and flowers and finished off by adding some more of the gold pearl pen and some cream pearls to the flourishes. 

WOW! Embossing …

Hello my dear crafty friends!
 This is my small, card size, canvas made forWOW! Embossing powders November new monthly challenge and it's very easy one: make Mixed Media piece! Anything with embossing powders and Mixed Media is great.
So here is my " piece of art": flat as a journal page, made with a few Tando Creative masks, few WOW! Embossing powders stamps as the background and a lot of WOW! POWDERS.


First I made the profile with white texture paste and heat embossed withBlack Glintpowder. The I added a few pieces of another  mask and heat embossed with Raspberry  Coulis powder.
The next step was clear embossing VersaMark  ink and Canvas  stamp and heat embossing with Ebony black powder and I made a kind of a frame around the canvas.
As the next step I added a bit of texture paste over the  girl's hair and heat embossed it  withPearl Goldpowder.



Then I added two heat embossed corners with Metallic Gold Sparkle powder.
The piece was still very " empty" so…

Hi! It's Sandie here and today I am sharing a card I made featuring a few of my favourite things.

My favourite colour is Teal, followed closely by Mustard so they are the feature colours on my card. 
The card base is 105mm x 148mm. I layered on a white 100mm x 143mm white panel and a 96mm x 139mm piece of patterned paper. 
I created a smaller panel using Sexi-Hexi with Gold Pearl (Regular) powder. I cut it down to approx 82mm x 126mm and matted it onto white card just slightly bigger. I used 3D foam to adhere it to the bottom panel. 

I used the Gratitude set with Blue Topaz for the flower and Nutmeg for the sentiment ticket. Each layer is stuck down with 3D foam for lots of dimension, which is another favourite thing. 


To embellish I added some Viva Decor pearls pen around the card.
