WOW! beautiful modern CAS card

I’ve got a lot of inspiration using a variety of WOW! Embossing powder products. There is something about heat embossing that will never get old for me, how about you? One of the cards today uses a beautiful trio of embossing powders to create a beautiful modern CAS card and it is so easy. If the pastel colours aren’t your taste, switch u the powders for some alternative colours and you’re good to go!

Beautiful Modern CAS card

Heat emboss three white card panels with the following embossing powder from the WOW! Pastel Gemstone Trio: Rose Quartz, Lemon Amber and Blue Aventurine. These have a lovely pastel hue with ultra-thick gold flecks in them.

Next, die-cut many small circles out of each panel and start to foam mount these onto a white card panel. Make sure the over hang the edge and cut the excess off for a fun background pattern. Add this card panel to a white card base. 

Next, die-cut the Hello die set from A Pocketfull of Happiness – both the full background die and the outline die. Heat emboss the inner letters of the outline die in gold embossing and inlay these back into the white outline. Adhere these onto the background die-cut to then add this to the front of the card to finish it off.

Fun Jester inspired background

I don’t know why but these card makes me think of a jester! Add embossing ink through the Diamond stencil onto a white card panel. Cover this with Niagra Blues embossing powder and heat set. 

Reposition the Diamond stencil so the stencil diamonds sit between the heat embossed diamonds. Repeat adding the ink through the stencil and then cover with California Gold embossing glitter before heat setting. Add this panel to a white cardbase. 

For the sentiment, die-cut the shadow Thank you die set from A Pocketfull of happiness out of black card. Cut this two to three times and layer up for dimension before adhering to the front of the card. Finish off by adding a glossy finish to the sentiment with Morning Dew Nuvo drops over the top spreading this out over the die cut and embellish with a few Ebony Black Nuvo drops.

Shadow stenciling

For this card, we will create a shadow offset. Ink blend Peppermint Scrub ink through the Sprinkles stencil onto a white card panel. Make sure this is dry before moving the stencil slightly, offset to one side. Add embossing ink through the stencil, cover with Metallic Gold Rich embossing powder and heat set. 

To create a focal element, die-cut a ring from cardstock inked with Peppermint Scrub ink 4 times. Adhere a piece of acetate between two of the rings and layer the rest of the rings behind this. 

Before adhering the acetate ring window onto the card, add some Crystal Sparkles behind the window and enclose this within the ring. Finish the card iff by adding a gold embossing Hello sentiment using the outline die from the Hello die set from A Pocketfull of Happiness.
