WOW Embossing Powders and Honey Bee Stamps blog hop

Hello there and welcome if you’re new here. I’m thrilled to be taking part in this hop between WOW and Honey Bee Stamps. I was sent this gorgeous package from Honey Bee and I couldn’t wait to play with the goodies inside.

They very generously sent me a fabulous flower border stamp and die called Zen Floral which has a very useful die to go with it. I used it to create this bordered card along with a Honey Cuts die called Hello Gorgeous Words.

Foiled Projects

We’re already half way through April and before you know it we’ll be in May and looking forward to Summer. That does scare me a little bit. When I was younger time seemed to drag by so very slowly I was wishing my days away but now I think it’s like being on a bob slay ride. I’ve still got lots of things to cross off my to do list from New Year and new things are being added all the time.  It’s the same for all of us I suppose. We just have to make every second count and try not to waste any.

The reason for the rant was because I can see from my blog that I’ve not been keeping my posts up as frequently as I should. Time has been going by so fast I’ve not had chance some weeks to sit and write.  Anyway, I think you’d much prefer the pretty pictures so here are a few.

Last week I had a project up on the WOW blog where this months theme is Foils. I adore using foils especially through a stencil as I did here.

At the same time WOW are also running their monthly challenge over on the their Facebook group where anyone can join in with a project. Again Foils are the theme and here I simply used the foil with some double sided tape to create a border around my April bullet journal page.

I’m practicing my hand lettering too and the more I do the better it gets.

Have a good week

My First Project For WOW Embossing Powders

Happy Saturday everyone and it’s another wet and miserable one outside. Inside however I’ve a nice smelly candle burning away, an acoustic playlist playing on the computer and I’m just going to paint and have fun.

Meanwhile my first blog post is up on the WOW Embossing Powders blog today and here’s a look at the grungy card I made using the Fab Foil and some of the new colours coming out this season. This Rose Gold foil is my favourite so far I think but that could very well change over the coming weeks and months.

If you want to see how I made it then click on the logo below which will hopefully take you there.

Here’s a closer look at that texture and shine. Their challenge for the month is all about Hearts so you can enter your own heart project here at WOW UK

Have a very good weekend and I’ll speak soon
