Enjoy with Irit and WOW! sketch

Hello my dear crafty friends! Today I share a card made with WOW! Embossing powders May sketch. Actually we have 4 different sketches, so this is just one I loved and used for my card.

The basic card is a vellum one. The second layer is the black glitter cardstock. Then I stamped De-Vine stamp using VersaMark ink and heat embossed it with Bright White Super fine powder.
As the next step I used 4 Gelatos to color the background under the stamped image and wiped the surface with a baby wipe, so the white image stayed non colored.
Then the whole stamped piece was inked again with the same clear ink and I heat embossed it all over with Clear Gloss embossing powder.

The whole double embossed piece was cut to fit the sketch and my card base and glued with 3d foam glue.
I added the sentiment and a few more puffy stickers to make this finished card that is good for anyone and for any occasion.
It's your time to play with our sketches and even to win some great products!

Metal embossing and making faux metal

Hello my dear crafty friends!
Irit is here today with my new post for our WOW! Embossing powders Metal monthly challenge and this time I want to show you a few easy and fast techniques with embossing powders over METAL. This is my Art Deco art piece made with a lot of embossing and a lot of techniques.

And the first technique used here is a Crackled Glass technique. It's not a real tutorial, but a snap samples of different techniques, so here it is in just a few words: Cover your cut out image(I used PWP clip art sheet) with a think layer of VersamarkClear embossing ink and add Ultra High Clear Gloss embossing powderover it. Heat emboss it and let it cool. Add another layer of clear embossing ink and another layer of clear embossing powder. Third time is even better, so make it once more. Now put this glass look piece into your deep freeze section and wait for like 15 minutes. Take it off and break the " glass" with your fingers. Add some brown ink over it. You …

Family (and some embossing too)

Hello my dear crafty friends! Irit is here again and this time with a scrapbooking page. Lately I don't scrap too much, also I still call myself a " primary scrapbooker". But this Family theme we offer this month as our WOW! challenge was totally perfect for a scrap page and so this lovely page was born.

This is small part of my family: my oldest son, his lovely wife and their first born son Omer. This photo was taken like 8 months ago and since it was taken they also have a small baby girl. (next year Family theme? )
So here is what I did on this page:
I used a chipboard as a mask and discovered that mists are pretty good mediumto add embossing powder without any other mediums. I just misted the chipboard, then added Pearl Red powder over the wet mist, heat embossed it and.... it looked just as I used embossing ink. It even gave me a good extra texture. Then the wet chipboard was sprinkled withApple Red powder, again no embossing inks was added, and heat embossed. P…

Unrestrained Decadence canvas

Hello my dear crafty friends and welcome to our Decadence month! My new Mixed Media canvas FULL of mediums (gesso, mists, gels, Gelato paints, embossing powders, stencils, stamping) . You name it- I used it over this page.
But the main point here are those Wycenanka gorgeous chipboards and one TH die . I used totally forgotten unknown art clip papers here, some industrial mesh and did I already said A LOT OF EMBOSSING POWDERS? I did. Thank you WOW! EMBOSSING POWDERS for those huge jars ofMetallicCopper, Primary Black Ebony and Clear Gloss powder as I really loved to add it all over this canvas.
And some close ups too: the die cut man was partially covered withUltra Thick Ebonypowder for example.
Here some Pastel Blue powder was added over theEbony regular powder for the antique look.
I also sprinkled a lot of clear gloss powder over the wet areas to get this textured look.
Hope you will take a part in our Decadence challenge this month: you need to enter the project and you …

A great day with great embossing colors

Hello my dear crafty friends!
Irit is here again and this time I decided to return to my primary love and to make a summer and sun scrapbooking page.
This is my new lo made for WOW! Embossing Powders Summer/Sunshine challenge and it's so sunny and orange and yellow that my it really screams " Summer" . Actually it's almost a Mixed Media piece and the photo in black and white with a small die cut - Die-Versions- title are the last second add- ons.

I made a background 7.5*15 cardstock in Mixed Media style with stencils (CWS and Tando Creative) and lots of embossing powders all over the gesso.
The gesso stencil's bursts were covered with Opaque Primary Mandarin, Sherbert, Lemon,Peach Gleam and Fluorescent Yellow powders.
The flowers were stamped with WOW!Collage stamp set and heat embossed with Black Ebony embossing powder. Then I stamped partlyFlowers background using Bright White embossing powder. A chipboard fence with a gate was added, painted with R…

Nature in technicolor (or with a lot of WOW! glitters)

Hello my dear crafty friends ! Irit is here again and this time with my full of glitters Nature project.

My new altered Mixed Media project made with Wow! Embossing powders stamps and powders and Tando Creative chipboards.

First I stamped the background with WOW! Collage stamp and heat embossed with Black Glintpowder. Then I used gesso and Tando mask for the orange- pink spots over the stamping. I added Peach Gleam glitter powder over the wet gesso and heat embossed it till is was dry.
I stamped some inspirational words from this gorgeous stamp set randomly (not much seen now) and misted the whole piece with a lot of Ranger mists.

The chipboard Gate Tando piece was covered with White Puff Twinkle embossing Glitter powder randomly, as I didn't want the perfect covered look.
Then I cut the gate into 2 halves and glued it over the stamped piece.
3 more words were added on the upper right corner with permanent black ink.
Then I added a thin layer of Lime Light Glitter powder over…

Life is beautiful (even in 3d recycling )

Hello my dear crafty friends!
Irit is here and this time with my new recycled 3d project.

This altered project was just a wooden base with a hole that I found at home, a 10 cent kids plastic magnifying glass and a fantastic A2Z Scraplets title (it's the little things). From all of those I made this lovely altered art piece, but it couldn't be done without those gorgeous WOW! Embossing Powders that I used over it.

The wooden base was covered with Glitz paper layers . The title was inked, clear embossed with Clear Gloss Regularembossing powder , layer after layer to make it glossy and glass look and then I made a random stamping over it.

Wow embossing Metallic Copper powder was the main coverage of the plastic glass. Easy to make : just add some Watermark embossing ink randomly over it , spread the powder and heat it. Nothing happens to plastic, believe me. Then I added some Tim Holtz Picket fence crackled paint over my
embossed Copper powder and PastelBlue embossing …

Recycle the old box to a unique gift project

By Irit Shalom April 08, 2013

Hello, my dear crafty friends! Irit is here again and this is my totally Recycled and up cycled post.
This time a have a story to tell before I show you my project.
We live in a big 7 bedrooms house for the last 18 years. Great home to raise your 4 kids. But then kids are already grown- ups and on their own and there left just 2 of us and a fatty cat. So about a year and a half we decided to move to a flat. Apartment. 4 bed rooms (2 for my craft addiction).We bought this apartment and we are still waiting as this a huge new building and it takes ages to finish the construction. Lately we sold our house (finally) and were told that our new place will be ready in 3-4 months. So this project is a small recycled gift to myself and my DH. I am going to put the new key inside and to give it to my husband when time comes and as I do all interior design it's like my new baby I will present to him and to our cat... (lol)

So this is my totally altered candy box (the back is ev…

Alter an old frame to a lovely Sping project

By Irit Shalom March 26, 2013

Hello, my dear crafty friends! Spring is here and as spring is all about innovation, I decided to give my old and ugly frame a new lovely embossed look. Here is my final result- Spring all around as you can see.

The frame was white painted and dirty, but I didn't even clean it too much, just covered it with a Wow Versamark Inkpad and made some heat embossed layers all over it.
The first layer was with WG03 Green and it was too shiny. So I added more embossing ink over it using Wood grain CWS stencil and WJ02 Honeyembossing powder. And it was too shiny and yellow after all. So I covered the whole frame with more ink and added WH03 Evergreen powder.
Bingo! The wood grain texture is seen under the upper powder layer and I like the colour much more.

The inner frame is Tando Creative, covered with some green paint and then I stamped a few white heat embossed doodles over with WL01 Bright White Regular embossing powder.
All flowers are covered with a mix of pink( Pastel pin…

Hello Winter!

By Irit Shalom January 26, 2013

Hello. my dear crafty friends! My name is Irit and this is my very first post here, also for a year I was on Wow Embossing Powders USA team, so I am not new to those gorgeous WOW! products at all.
This month is a month of Ice and Snow in our blog. Ice and snow for Israeli girl? We hardly see snow once in a lifetime. But as I design only for out of Israel companies, I do have great winter products to design with and today I am going to show you my "Hello, Winter" wall deco full of Wow! Embossing Powders stamps and powders.

The basic part of this deco is this 30*30 cm (12*12'') chipboard piece from Australian A2Z Scraplets company. It was a long way to make this board to look like it is now: each part of it was covered with Versamark embossing ink and heat embossed with a lot of WOW powders.
I usedMetallic Silver Sparkle , Azure, Pastel Blue and Neutral Ultra Shimmerin a mix and most of them were double or triple embossed.
Then I made this inner stamped circle…
