Catherine Pooler + WOW! Insta Hop

The teams at WOW! Embossing and Catherine Pooler have combined to bring you a fun Instagram Hop full of inspiration with the NEW Luxe Inks and WOW! heat embossing delight. To celebrate this fun-filled hop we have 2 x $30 gift cards up for grabs. One for the Catherine Pooler store and one for the WOW! Embossing store. While appreciated, comments left here will not qualify. Please head over to Instagram for all the details.


I'm always excited when two of my favourite companies collaborate on amazing products and I love the gorgeous WOW! Embossing powders that coordinate with Catherine Pooler's new Luxe inks, Glitz/Glitz Embossing Glitter, Uptown/Uptown Embossing Glitter and Dress Blues/Dress Blues Embossing Glitter. I also used WOW! Embossing powders in Halo and Midnight Dream.


For my first card, I used the Folk Floral Background, selectively inking the top and bottom edges with Glitz ink, the stamping the entire background a second time with the WOW! Embossing Pad and heat embossing it with Halo Embossing Glitter.


For both cards, I ombre stamped all the leaves from Autumn is Calling in the following combinations: Flame/Glitz, Martini/Uptown, Dress Blues/Glam. Then I used the WOW! Embossing Pad on the edge that coordinates with the Glitz, Uptown and Dress Blues Embossing Glitters, heat embossing those on the leaves.


I die cut the Oh Happy Day Word Dies from two layers of heavyweight white cardstock and mirror silver cardstock. I adhered all three layers together with Bearly Art liquid glue for dimension. I assembled the laurels and popped them on to the top and bottom of the Folk Floral Background with foam tape. Then I adhered Oh Happy Day with Bearly Art liquid glue.


For my second card, I die cut a frame using the Scallops & Dots Dies but instead of using the scalloped mat, I used the negative piece as a frame on the white linen card base. Then I stacked two of the pierced frame for dimension and adhered it to the card base. I popped up a selection of the the leaves from Autumn is Calling on foam tape.


I stamped the sentiment from Give Thanks Sentiments using Juniper Mist ink and heat embossed it with Midnight Dream Embossing Glitter. I trimmed it down into a strip, which I adhered with glue dots just to give it a bit of dimension.


To finish, I added sequins in coordinating colours from the Park Avenue, Mystic and Tinseltown sequin mixes. 


I hope you'll hop along on Instagram for loads of inspiration and a chance to win! Thanks so much for hopping along with us!
