It Will Show You The Way Altered Box

Hi crafty friends!

I hope you are well and feeling creative. My post today features plenty of bling and shine with this cute box / card combo I created using WOW's new Sparkles glitter.

My substrate was just a plain old gift box I'd saved which I painted with chalk paint. I used Peppermint Stick glitter over stenciling details and added a touch of Perissa embossing powder onto the stones which surround the flowers.

Adding pink and a deep purple inks into the glitter gives a tint and a more blended, softer look to the Sparkles.

Open the box to find a micro greeting card inside! The card is decorated with a heart covered in both Peachy Keen and Prom Queen Sparkles glitter . I softened the heart outline with stones and the Perissa embossing powder which was used on the front of the box.
 

 

I stamped the sides of the box with the lines and brush strokes stamps from WOW's new release Wall Art set. I think they work really well together, creating an almost basket weave pattern.

See how the glitter lifts everything? Just by added small touches of it here and there makes a big difference to projects!


I hope you're inspired to give WOW's Sparkles a try and  don't forget to join in the challenge on the blog!

Warm hugs,

WOW! 2017 Release Blog Hop

Hello crafty friends!

Today is a very exciting day.... it's time for a WOW! embossing blog hop, where we are celebrating the new releases for 2017. And boy, they are exciting!

created my card using the new Wall Art, Hearts & Twine stamp sets, Sparkles glitter and gorgeous new embossing powders.

The blingy Sparkles glitter (in Celebration and Coral Beach) works perfectly accenting areas of projects. Here I've used them around a die cut circle and under a piece of acetate.

For the focal point, I stamped the smaller heart from the Hearts & Twine set and adhered glass micro beads into the centre. I then sprayed with a mica spray and added pinches of embossing powders (Champers, Rose Gold, Perissa, Sand Dune and Copacabana) into the wet surface before melting and drying with a heat tool.
