The technique this fortnight once again uses our trusty glue gun with clear glue only this time. It's simply a matter of drawing your design onto watercolour paper with your glue gun, allowing it to dry, re-heating with a heat gun (taking care not to ruin your design!) and while still hot, dump your embossing powder on. Tap off the excess embossing powder and heat again to melt the embossing powder. Let it cool, spritz the card with water and apply Twinkling H2O's onto the wet card so the colours blend together and voila, a cool and dimensional background that you can add pictures to or if your design can stand alone, a little embellishment and some words and you can call it done!
Of course the computer screen doesn't show how dimensional this glue is nor how wonderfully shimmery the Twinkling H2O's are.... you'll just have to try this technique out for yourself and see.
