Good morning!
Today we have a special treat for you. We are teaming up with WOW! Embossing Powder (below WOW!) to bring you an amazing blog hop full of fun, inspiration, and of course – PRIZES!
WOW! is most known for their amazing embossing powders, and they also offer many other fabulous products for your stamping needs. Here is a little more about WOW!:
WOW! Embossing Powder has been established as a brand in 2007 and has grown dramatically since then. We are the largest manufacturers of embossing powder in the world, therefore are very pleased and proud to offer crafters what we believe is the best product available for crafters and professional printers! WOW! Embossing Powder offer over 160 different colours of embossing powders: Embossing Glitter, Metallic, Puff and Ultra High to name a few collections. WOW! also have Fab Foils, embossing inks, embossing pens, bonding powder, flock, stamps and stamping accessories as part of their range!
I have two cards to share with you today. The first was actually quite difficult to photograph due to the soft colors, so I apologize for the poor quality!
I first started by inking up the large rose from our Brush Art Floral stamp set with Coral Berry ink, then gave it two light spritzes of water. I then stamped it onto watercolor paper for a lovely hand-painted look! I followed the same procedure with the leaves using Frayed Leaf ink.
Next, I stamped and embossed a sentiment from the Painted Greetings set with WOW!'s gorgeous Metallic Gold Superfine embossing powder. I love that beautiful shine! The watercolor panel was then mounted to a kraft card base with foam tape.
My second card features the moon image from To the Moon which I stamped in two shades of grey ink, then topped it off with WOW!'s Diamond White Embossing Glitter.
To accompany the sparkly moon, I embossed the sentiment (from Painted Inspiration) with Silver Pearl embossing powder. To add stars, I randomly drew dots onto the black card base with a white gel pen.
PRIZES:

Thanks for a chance to win! I can’t wait to use the WOW diamond embossing powder! Great blog ideas!
The to the moon stamp set is one of my favorites. It is pretty masculine and can be used on a fairly plain card and make it look great. I really think that you can put any combination of colors together and make it look like a great planet- it doesn’t just have to be a moon. Embossing with it is a great technique too, I will have to get some more colors :)
Love the WOW embossing powders and would love to build up my color supply. Thanks for the chance to win a g.c. Cards are very pretty with the watercolor look on the flower.
Your cards are amazing! I love the pretty flower and gold on the first one and the diamond glittered moon on the second. Thanks for sharing.
lovely!

I bought my first Altenew stamp set, Beautiful Day, yesterday and I am so happy with the results I have had with them already. I am excited to see so many different ways I can use my stamps from ideas on this blog and YouTube. I think I will be investing in many more Altenew stamps soon!
