Trinity Stamps and WoW Collaboration Hop


Hello Friends! Welcome to the WOW! Embossing Powder and Trinity Stamps Collaboration Blog Hop. I'm so excited to be sharing a couple cards with you during this fun collaboration hop. I hope you are having a great time seeing all the beautiful creations from the entire hop and thank you for stopping by to take a look at what I've created.

Since this is a Collaboration Hop, we also have some fun giveaways! We have two prize packages to giveaway and all you have to do is leave comments here and along the hop for a chance to win. Check out the bottom of the post for prize package details and the entire blog hop line up!

Pretty in Pink & Little Sprinkle of Gold
With the cold weather, I've been craving Spring and when I crave Spring I tend to start creating with pastels (especially pink) and floral designs. The Opaque Pastel Pink is a wonderful color and what I really enjoy about the WOW! Embossing Opaque colors is that they look totally different when applied to white card stock vs. a color card stock. With this embossing magic in mind, I decided to create the same Thank You Card Design but different color card stock.


The Fun Supplies:


The Embossed Background:
  1. The number one most important step: Apply a Static-free powder to your card panels.
  2. I then stamped the floral image from Hello Sweet Friend several times on the white and pink card stock panels. 
  3. Then I added the Opaque Pastel Pink Embossing Powder and applied heat to emboss the images on the card stock.
  4. Then in the extra spaces between the floral designs I stamped the greenery images. Then I heat embossed the images in Metallic Gold Rich Regular Embossing Powder. 
  5. For a little extra dimension, I added in some Prismacolor pinks to the rose images. 


The Gold Embossed Sentiment: 
I was so in love with the Gold Embossing from the leaves, I needed more gold :-) 
  1. To create the gold embossed square behind the sentiment block, I took the WOW Embossing Pad and smooshed it all around two white card stock squares. 
  2. Then I heat embossed the gold to the card stock. 
  3. I stamped Thank You from Hello Sweet Friend with the Embossing Pad and heat embossed with more Metallic Gold. 

Finishing the Card:
  1. I layered the gold embossed square and sentiment square together with thin foam dots. 
  2. Adhered the Embossed panels to a white and pink card stock base and then adhered the sentiment to top/center of the embossed patterned background panel with thin foam dots. 

I hope you enjoyed how these two PINK and GOLD cards came together and are inspired to use your embossing powder and Trinity Stamps in new ways. 

Prize Package Details: Six powders (at the winners choosing) + carrying case from WOW! Embossing Powder to one lucky winner & Trinity Stamps has an amazing pack of goodies with Stamp, Die and Embellishments for another lucky winner!! Giveaway winners will be announced on Wednesday, March 6th 2019 on both Trinity Stamps & WOW! Embossing Blog. 

Make sure you hop along and see all the other amazing cards. Don't forget to leave comments throughout the hop for a chance to win!

Hopeful Flowers: One Stamp, Three Ways | Trinity Stamps


Hello, Hello, Hello and Happy Monday! It feels like forever since I last posted here. I’m excited to get back into the blogging of things. This Monday, I’m up on the Trinity Stamps Blog sharing three small but bright and cheery cards using the 3x4 Hopeful Flowers Stamp set.

This was one of my first stamps that started my Trinity Stamps collection and still one of my absolute favorites. It’s a small stamp but big on impact. The floral images are so much fun to color and can be arranged in so many different ways using the matching dies.

The Ellen Hutson Folk Heart Dies also made a comeback into one of the cards. I cannot express how much I LOVE this die set. Let me try: “I Loooooovvvveeeee this die set.” The hearts have this amazing shape that can be used on so many different ways on so many projects.

Friends, I hope you will join me over at the Trinity Stamps blog for all the details.

Until, next time...Big Paper Hugs!

Trinity Stamps | Mix It Up Monday with Hearts and Flowers

Hello Friends! I’m up on the Trinity Stamps Blog with a Mix It Up Monday Post. I love the process of creating CAS cards, but sometimes it takes me FOREVER to get to the final card. Then I look at it and say, “Seriously, Emily that took you how long?!” Can anyone else relate to this?

I hope you can stop by the blog to see more photos and the process I used to create these CAS cards.  Trinity Stamps has amazing floral stamp designs and the Essentials by Ellen Folk Heart die has become one of my favorite die sets in my craft room!

Below I listed some of the products I used to create these two cards. The products listed are affiliate links, if you click on the links I will get a small commission at no additional cost to you. These small purchases help me grow my blog and Instagram feed and I really appreciate your support!


Have a wonderful week ahead!!

Trinity Stamps is a new stamp company offering fresh new stamp designs, dies, embellishments and other card making fun finds like inks, embossing and tools. Make sure you take at look their goodies in the Sparkle & Sequins category...it is a card makers candy store! The Winter Release includes 7 Stamps Sets, 7 Die Sets and a flury of sequins and sparkles. 

This blog hop is packed with fun & prizes. Please be sure to comment below and all along the hop to enter to win one of FIVE prize packs!!! The hop was so big that it's covering two days. I've included links to both last Friday's Hop and Today's Hop and then end of the post. 

Below are a few of the cards that I designed using the Winter Botanicals Stamp & Matching Dies, Season Greetings Silhouette and the Magic Sentiment Word Dies and the wonderful Castle Scene Builder Die set. 

Magical Holiday Wishes
This card uses the Castle Scene Builder Die Set and Magical Sentiment and Matching Die. The extra sparkles are from the *Magical* Lumos Glitter Confetti pack. I love how the light changes the Lumos Glitter Confetti from silver to blue! For the ink blending behind the magical castle, I used both VersaFine Clair Ink and Distress Oxide Ink...I really like how both of these two inks blended together and the vibrant colors it created. Trinity Stamps is now stocking the latest two Distress Oxide ink colors at a great price! 


Holiday Bows and Boughs
This card uses the trees from the Castle Scene Builder Die Set along with Winter Botanicals Stamps and dies. The little bow is just the sweetest thing ever! All of the stamped images were inked with VersaFine Clair Inks (Green Oasis, Glamorous and Nocturne) which you can grab in the store! The sentiment is from Season Greeting Silhouette. You must check out the other Design Team Blog Hop posts---they have AMAZING examples of how to use this set with beautiful blended and watercolor backgrounds!


Little Red Trees on the Hilltop
This card uses the Trees & Hill dies from the Castle Scene Builder set. I die cut the trees in red glitter paper and the hills were created by adjusting the hill die at different points on white card stock to give the hills some added movement and there's that amazing sentiment again from Season Greetings Silhouette set--I was really impressed with how well it worked with embossing powder and heat setting! See those embellishments in the photo background? Those beauties are from the Tree Trimmings Speciality Shaker Embellishment Mix...I love the glitter on these sequins *swoon*. 

Here's a little close-up of all the little elements. The Castle Scene Builder is such a versatile set and can be used all year round. 

Bonus: Wizard Birthday from the Pops of Paper Kiddo

The Magical Wizards Stamp set was a big hit with the kiddo this release. Here are her words about the cards she made (a card making blogger in the making).
"Hi everyone! I made 2 Harry Potter cards using stamps from trinity stamps. I made these cards for my two friends for their birthday because it was a Harry Potter birthday. I like Trinity Stamps because they have a lot of embellishments and I like Harry Potter."
