Hi! Jen Matott here and I wanted to share a fun technique that I discovered but before I do, I want to tell you about a fun thing we are doing this week!!! We are collaborating with the Paper Crafts Library!!!! This entire week is Wow! week, and every day of this week our designers and their designers have created fantastic projects featuring Wow! Embossing Powders. There are lots of free video tutorials and we're giving away a set of 12 embossing powders on the Paper Crafter's Library Blog, and a set of 6 embossing powders here on the Wow! Blog.
Here's what you need and I'm going to show you how I did this!
If you don't have a dropper, you could use a paintbrush or plastic spoon to drip onto the page with.
I also used the Gratitude stamps to add some text and loops that match the Prima papers I used. I was so happy to see that they matched!
Finding out that I can create any shape I want and create free-flowing drips and drops using this adhesive is so exciting and opens up a lot of possibilities for WOW embossing powders!
Supplies:
WOW! Embossing Powders: Cotton Candy, Earthtone Paprika, Cable Car Red, Sierra Sunrise, Black Glint and Angel Wings.
Stamps: WOW! Gratitude
Papers/ Embellishments: Prima
Adhesive: Dynasize La d'ore
VersaMark ink
Here are a few more close ups of the project:
I hope you liked my technique today and will try it out for yourself!

I was looking for a drippy painted look but with embossing powders. In order to create the drippy look, I had to find an adhesive that would drip and stay sticky after drying. I have some gold leafing adhesive that you paint on and allow to dry before applying gold leaf.
I used a dropper to create a puddle and then tipped my page to create a drip. I also splattered the dropper a bit to create some drops.
I let the adhesive dry for a few hours (or you can use a heat gun to speed it along) and then used Cotton Candy, Earthtone Paprika, Sierra Sunrise, and Angel Wings on the sticky drips! I used my heat gun and found that it worked great!
