Hello and welcome to the Wow! and Whimsy Stamps collaborative blog hop. The blog hop starts right now and will run until the 5th of April.
For my first card I stamped the Lattice Background Stamp on to patterned paper (this saved me having to ink a panel of white card, SO much easier!) with Wow! Embossing Ink Pad then I applied Bright White Super Fine Embossing Powder.
I cut the embossed panel using the Wonky Stitched Rectangles Die Set and adhered to the card with foam pads. I die cut a frame with the Pierced and Stitched Circles die set and popped a circle of vellum, behind the frame.
I made some paper flowers using the Poppy Flower Die Set (you can see how I make these flowers in the video here. I finished off by adding some Glass Slipper Sparkles to the ends of the flowers for some pretty! And I used Wow Metallic Brass to heat emboss a sentiment from the Everyday Mini Sentiments Stamp set
I made flowers from foamiran for the second card, and went with a DL sized card for a change.
I used Mayan Glintz Embossing Powder to give the chipboard frame an enamelled look. I applied three coats of heat embossing to get a beautiful smooth and glossy finish. I stamped the butterflies from the Flight of the Butterflies stamp set using Turkish Nights Embossing Powder and fussy cut them out. Once again I used Wow Metallic Brass to heat emboss a sentiment from the Everyday Mini Sentiments Stamp set
I used three layers of the largest petal to make the large flower. I used white foamiran and coloured it with bubblegum pink Gelatos, and peach foamiran for the smaller blossom flowers (I used the smallest die in the Poppy Flower Die Set for these dinky ones. A few black Nuvo Drops finished off the card. There are a few foamiran flower tutorials on my You Tube channel, the Easy Roses tutorial is probably the best one to show how to make the mini flowers (just use two layers instead of five)
The next (and last) stop on the hop is WOW! Embossing Powder
