Cardmaking with the Pick Me Up Trio and Fab Foil

Welcome Everyone!
Martina here with you today with two cards using the fabulous new "Pick me Up" Trio.

Since we are still in january, I decided to create another set of "WOW! all the things!" cards.

I absolutely love foiled effects on cards and have always been wondering if the Fab Foils could work for me. So - why not giving it a try?!

If you'd like to watch me creating these cards,
here is the Link to the WOW Embossing YouTube Channel for you.

I have been using the same techniques with different colours for both cards.

To start, I have been swiping my WOW Embossing Pad over a piece of cardstock.

Then I have been pouring WOW Bonding Powder over it.

Using the Dual Speed Heat Gun, I have been carefully melting the Bonding Powder and pressing Sheets of Fab Foil into the still slightly warm Bonding Powder.
I have been repeating the melting / adding the Fab Foil process several times - just until I was sure that the whole powder has been melted and I liked the result.

When I liked my Fab Folied pieces, I have been die cutting some basic shapes from them.

I have been cutting the same shapes from plain white cardstock too, which I then have heat embossed with Embossing Powders from the new "Pick me Up " Trio.

To create the background, I have been applying Distress Oxide with a blender Brush through a stencil.
