WOW! and Picket fence studios blog hop....!!

Hey everyone....

It's time for a fun blog hop with "WOW! embossing" and "Picket fence studio"....

The teams have created awesome projects to share with you and get you inspired!!

I created a bright and fun card using the stamp "Mixed tape love" from Picket fence. 
I thought this stamp would be so much fun and how funny is the little sentiment!!

How many of you remember cassette tapes??!! Gone are the days right....


To create this card I cut out some "Stitched circle frames" from Create a smile stamps in different colours of cardstock and then layered them all in together. 
I then gave them a coat of WOW! embossing ink and covered in WOW! "Wanderlust" embossing powder. Tipped off the excess and heat seat resulting in a colourful and sparkly piece for my background!!


Using WOW! melt it powder I created these super cute little heart embellishments...

The melt it powder is so much fun, all you do is put some melt it powder into a foil melt it case from WOW!, mix in your desired colour powder (I used Copacabana, unfortunately this is a retired colour)... give it a mix and then heat from underneath with your WOW! dual heat gun to melt it all. 

Once its all melted you tip into your WOW! mould, they don't take long at all to set... 
You then pop them out and you have handmade embellishments!!


The cassette tape I stamped, coloured with alcohol markers and then fussy cut around it... Added it to the card base with some foam tape for dimension and stamped the sentiment direct onto the card base!!

This finished off my card...
I hope you like it and I hope you have lots of fun hopping along the blog hop!!

  8. One of the rahabber programs
    I watched last night found some
    VHS tapes. Young one said she'd
    never seen one - had heard of
    them. Cassettes are the same.
    Hate when we show our age.
