WOW blog hop

Thanks for joining us for the WOW embossing powders Powder Puff girls blog hop.
I have a fun project to share with you today using Ebony regular and my Silhouette Cameo.
I recently received the Silhouette Cameo for my Birthday last week, I am still learning about how to use it and starting a fun collection of files. One of the first files I purchased was this Dear Lizzy doily by American Crafts:



I thought this doily would look great embossed, so I enlarged it to 11x11 and cut it with my silhouette. My next step was to completely cover it in Versamark ink and WOW ebony embossing powder. I had to go over it a few times to get complete coverage but I was really happy with the overall effect. The ebony powder gives it a glossy finish and really makes it stand out.

  9. I just got a silhouette Cameo as well and I would love to try this out. I learned about WOW embossing powders a few weeks ago on Paper Crafters Library. I am in love with them and would be SO excited to win some of this product to use on my own projects. Thank you for participating in the blog hop and allowing me the chance to enter.

    Have a great day!
