Hi friends!
It’s Erica on the WOW! Blog with a couple of friendship cards today. There is also a video up on the WOW! YouTube channel.
To finish off the cards I used several of the small stamps from the stamp set, in the same place on both panels thanks to the MISTI again. I used black ink for this to make them pop. With this done, the final part was to trim off the panels a little before adhering them to white card bases.
So, what do you think I should call my custom blend? Leave me a comment here with a suggestion!
Thanks for stopping by today! I hope you found some inspiration here and will try your own repeat stamping. Don’t forget to upload your creations in the WOW! Facebook fan group. A random winner gets drawn every month with a gift certificate to the shop up for grabs!
Lots of love and happy crafting from Erica

This month’s theme is Repeat Stamping, and for those of you who know me, know I love doing this! I have used a stamp set from Mama Elephant called Friend Indeed, and a gorgeous array of glitter powders. Mermaid Tails, Seaglass, Splash and Calypso. Two shades of Calypso actually. One old tub and one new.
With the help of a MISTI or stamping tool, repeat stamping is so easy and fun. Adding embossing powder or glitter to it, makes it extra fabulous!
On the first one I stamped up the image with the Embossing Pad and then sprinkled the glitter powder on them. In the order of Calypso, Seaglass and Mermaid Tails. I used the heat tool on top of this, instead of heating it from underneath. I thought I had made a big mistake of mixing the Seaglass and Mermaid Tails as the smaller, lighter glitter pieces looked like Seaglass. It turns out that I didn’t but I did not realise this before I added more Seaglass and Calypso to it to make a custom blend.
On the second I decided to stamp with a coloured ink first, Distress Oxides in Peacock Feathers, Cracked Pistachio and Mermaid Lagoon, and then use the Embossing Pad on top with the custom blend. This time I did heat it from underneath and it turned out fabulous!
