Heat Embossing

Embossing is a great way to enhance a stamped image. The raised, shiny plastic coating adds a whole new dimension to stamping, and you'll have non-stampers wondering how you've achieved such a professional look.

The technique is easy to do!!!! Stamp the image to be embossed and sprinkle embossing powder quickly over the wet stamped image. Remove any excess powder from around the stamped image by lightly tapping the paper. Use a heat source to make the powder melt and give the raised embossed effect.
