Hello, it's Verity with another video and blog post as a Creative team member for WOW! Today I've got 3 super easy cards to create so if you've not really dabbled in Mix media before this might be a good place to get you going! I like to combine dimension with my stencils and embossing pastee or heat embossing is such a great way to do that. But it is even better when we combine the two techniques! I'm also sharing my tips on adding glitter!
Adding dimension to your stencilling with heat embossing video Tutorial:
Adding dimension to your stencilling with heat embossing written Tutorial:
Position the Twister Stencil over a white card panel with the centre of the twister towards the top. o keep this in place whilst I work I like to use the Wendy Vechi Make Art Stay-tion.
Next, with a spatula, apply embossing paste through the stencil. Remove the stencil, remembering to wash your stencil and spatula to prevent the paste from drying on them. Next, cover the wet paste with Gitty's Power Embossing Powder.
Once the paste has dried, heat set the embossing powder. This powder is translucent so you will get a nice shine to the dimension. To finish the card add a sentiment from the Love & Hugs Fab Foiles in Blush Fab Foil and embellish with fold sequins.
This card combines embossing paste with embossing glitter on coloured cardstock.
Again, apply embossing paste through the Twister Stencil over some Coral Hero Hues cardstock. Cover this powder with California Gold embossing glitter. Once dry, heat set the powder. Even with embossing paste, still heat-set embossing glitter from the back to make sure no glitter is lost.
This card uses translucent embossing paste and WOW! Eco Sparkles to add a little shine.
On a non-porous surface, mix Lobster Eco Sparkles into some Transparent Matter Texture paste. Next, apply this through the Twister stencil onto white cardstock.
As the glitter is mixed into the paste, you do not need to heat set this panel. Trim the panel down and add to a white card base.
Lastly, add another Love & Hugs Fab Foiler sentiment in Blush Fab Foil and embellish with gold sequins.
