WOW! Embossing and Brennan Keane August 2025 Release Blog Hop

 

I’m so excited to be joining WOW! Embossing Powder to celebrate the release of their brand-new designer collection: Earthly Marvels, created by the incredibly talented Brennan Keane!

This 6-piece embossing powder release is inspired by the beauty of the natural world — from starry skies and ocean blues to floral tones and frost-kissed sparkle. Whether you’re a mixed media maker, a cardmaking colourist, or just love to add texture and shine, the Earthly Marvels collection has something to spark your imagination.

Today, I’m sharing a project using the gorgeous new Dried Lavender from the collection — I hope it inspires you to get creative with these magical new powders!

I love the muted tones of this purple powder (thanks to the grey undertones of it) and the little flecks of silver throughout. It also has beautiful texture to it!

I also made matching heart embellishments to coordinate with the large embossed heart. I love the simplicity of this, as I wanted the powder to speak for itself.

💥 And yes, there’s a giveaway! Keep reading to find out how you can enter to win the entire Earthly Marvels collection!

WOW! Embossing and Seth Apter July 2025 Release

This brand-new Designer collaboration features four richly textured, earthy-toned embossing powders that reflect Seth’s signature mixed media aesthetic. Whether you’re into vintage layers, grungy textures or industrial tones, the Heritage Quad adds bold, dimensional detail to any make.

But first—let’s dive into the inspiration!

I used some white embossing paste and a large leaf stencil.  Once i added my paste I sprinkled on all 4 of the powders in the new Heritage Quad and added a bit of gold.  I then heated it all with my heat embossing tool for some added texture around the edges.  I love how all of these powders blend together so beautifully!  I used a leaf stencil because these colours remind me of the gorgeous colours of Autumn and the changing leaves.  

I also just realized I forgot the second part of my sentiment...oops 😂

WOW! Embossing Powder February 2025 New Release Hop and Giveaway

 

I’m thrilled to be joining WOW! Embossing Powder to celebrate their February 2025 Release—happening on Saturday, 15th February 2025!

And guess what? WOW! is giving away THREE amazing prize bundles! Keep reading to find out how you can WIN a selection of our new release products (worth over $70!).

But first, let’s dive into the inspiration!

For this project I used one of the gorgeous new additions to the ultra high collection Primary Indigo for the main part of the flower.  This is a gorgeous rich indigo colour. I cut out the flower and did some ink smooshing with the Ultra Slow Drying Embossing Ink Pad, added the powder and then heat set it.  I repeated this process twice, as I wanted a super glossy almost enamel look to the flower.   But the really cool thing with this powder, is that the longer you hold your heat embossing tool on the powder, you can actually move it a bit and get a lighter almost lilac colour to it...that's the lighter purple colour you see at the top of the cupped flower.  I really liked the way it looked, so I left it peeking out there.   I added another one of the new powders, Ray of Sunshine to the middle of the flower for that bit of sparkle.  I put my flowers together, added them to my background and that was it!   Purple and gold go so well together and these powders are perfection together!  The light and airiness of Ray of Sunshine compliments the richness of the Indio so well.  Such regalness this is giving!  

For my second project I used another addition the ultra high collection, Pastel Spring Glow.  I did some embossing using a 3D embossing folder.  I then ran my ultra slow embossing ink pad over the embossed raised areas and added on my embossing powder.  Before heat setting the powder I took a small paintbrush and just removed and stray bits of powder that got in the areas I didn't want powder.  I heat the teh powder and then added some gold splatters.  I took the same gold paint and ran a paintbrush around the edges of it.  The sentiment was added and that was it.  I love the extra dimension the powder gives the already embossed image!  This powder is such a pretty green and it just screams Spring (well it is int he name after all lol).
