Hello my dear crafty friends! Irit is here and this is my post made for our Summer challenge.
This new lo I made for myself, I and me... I am not much a " selfie" scrapper, but when I have the  right products  that fit a fair photo, I do make such layouts. So here is one of those " about me" pieces.
I used Paper House Productions papers and stickers and the photo was just a perfect match to the background paper. But is was too dull. So I ended with Tando stencil and WOW! Embossing Powders " sunshine" made with texture paste and heat embossing over the wet surface.
Then I found this perfect FabScraps chipboard title and with a little help of VersaMark and embossing powder I made it shiny and a good fit to the " sun" above. It was this European summer in Latvia... Summer without sun. So I added one and made it my special summer vacation page.

Hello my dear crafty friends and welcome to my WOW! Embossing Powders post.
This month WOW! DT girls are craft lifting each other. So after a long scroll over my team mates posts I picked this project as my inspiration from SUE's lovely ATC project.
http://wowembossingpowder.blogspot.co.il/2014/11/mix-it-all-up.html

I made a tag and not an ATC, but I used just the same techniques and a lot of WOW! POWDERS.
 I covered this tag with a thick layer of VersaMark ink and sprinkled a mix of powders using this salt and pepper " tool" as my team mate did on her project.
Here are the powders I used on this tag:
Metallic Brass
Vintage Candy Cane
Metallic gold rich
Pomegranate
Passion fruit
Olive
Metallic copper sparkle
Amber rose
First I made the lower layer; then glued old vintage book page pieces with gel medium and then heat embossed  it again with more gold and brass powders. The stamped images were made with pigment black ink and heat embossed over with Clear powder. The only non WOW!…

Hello my dear crafty friends!
 This is my small, card size, canvas made forWOW! Embossing powders November new monthly challenge and it's very easy one: make Mixed Media piece! Anything with embossing powders and Mixed Media is great.
So here is my " piece of art": flat as a journal page, made with a few Tando Creative masks, few WOW! Embossing powders stamps as the background and a lot of WOW! POWDERS.


First I made the profile with white texture paste and heat embossed withBlack Glintpowder. The I added a few pieces of another  mask and heat embossed with Raspberry  Coulis powder.
The next step was clear embossing VersaMark  ink and Canvas  stamp and heat embossing with Ebony black powder and I made a kind of a frame around the canvas.
As the next step I added a bit of texture paste over the  girl's hair and heat embossed it  withPearl Goldpowder.



Then I added two heat embossed corners with Metallic Gold Sparkle powder.
The piece was still very " empty" so…

Hi Everyone

At WOW HQ this month is Christmas/Winter and have taken a technique from Tim Holtz and give it a WOW twist using WOW products to see if there was any difference.
I firstly took a tag in black and stamped out NOEL from the  Deck the Halls set in Versamark on the Tag, then heat set with Sparkling Snow embossing powder.

I then stamped out all 3 trees twice each from the set in Versamark and sprinkled over it Clear Matt Dull embossing powder and heat set.  Now as you can see from the top right two pictures, as you are heating it it looks glossy but within seconds it goes a Matt dull colour.
I then got a piece of children's chalk and rubbed this over the trees.  Then with my finger rubbed the chalk into the cardstock.  The result is the raised embossed tree dulled like a shadow. Top left and middle left picture.

I then played devil and re heated the trees.  The embossing powder came to the top and the chalk effect went into the background on the cardstock. On the left is r…

Hi! Birgit here with a fall themed stars and stripes blog post.
When we were at the woods for a nice fall walk recently I picked up some leaves to take home. I wasn't sure what to do with them, thought I'd might paint or draw on them as I had seen some fabulous leaves on the internet.
And then, when I was wondering what to create for today's blog post I saw the dried leaves lying on my desk and wondered if it would be possible to emboss them. I was thrilled to discover how well that goes!
The leaves I created are really quick and easy to make and I think they are a great eye catcher on a fall table. Or maybe frame them? I can imagine 3 frames next to each other with one leaf in the middle of each of them. Smaller leaves would be perfect to use on a scrapbook page or the focus point on a nice card...

What do you need to create these? First of all leaves that had the chance to dry for a couple of days. I had 2 different ones and they both worked well but I can imagine that …
