I have previously done a class where we used embossing powder to create blobs on a craft sheet that could be peeled up and used as an accent when cooled. This is a further adaptation to this class. I'm sure that everyone who has used embossing powder has a huge collection of colours that will last them forever so this is an excellent way to use what you have. I used Ranger Collage Medium to glue my embossing skins down but I know that the Tombow Mono Glue and the Ranger Matte Medium will both work fine as well. The trick is to be gentle with your embossing powder skin as it can break where it is thin. To stop all of the embossing powder from blowing everywhere as it is in little piles, I use a piece of baking paper over the top as the baking paper can take the heat of the heat gun and it keeps
the powder in place. It can make the powder matte though, so you need to heat it once again without
the baking paper in place to make it glossy again. But that causes holes, so it's a fine balancing act between the two.
"If found dead"
"No longer available"
(I've wanted to use this quote for a
ghost image for ages.)
"Fake smiling"
"Broqué"
"Feels"
(This one is a little different. It has the layers of
embossing powder on top of some chipboard
wings that have been attached before dumping
all of the colours of embossing powder down.
This gives a very thick layer of embossing powder
in various colours that also run off the edge onto
the background to give a very organic look.)
