In my last post, I experimented with heat embossing the large branch image from Stampin’ Up!’s Nature’s Symphony stamp set in white. I just love the outcome. So why not heat emboss the branch image in gold? It’s equally stunning.

How to Heat Emboss
- Rub the Embossing Buddy across the surface of the paper you are wishing to emboss.
- Ink the stamp with Versamark Ink.
- Press the stamp on to the paper.
- Pour the Wow! Embossing Powder on top of the image. Shake off the excess.
- Use the Heat Tool to heat the image. In some cases, you get a sharper image when you apply the heat to the back of the paper.
- Do not over heat.
This technique, especially when applied to the Designer Series Paper, really packs a punch.
