a bit of humor: when I started this card making hobby and embossing powder first hit the crafting market, there was no way to heat it other than hold it over a candle flame or your stove burner!!!! Fire and paper? yeah I know...but it worked. what a great day when heat tools came along.

Thank you for all the details and different demonstrations! Not only did I get the information I was looking for, but now I have several more ideas and inspirations for other projects... doggone it...

Rebecca, you give the best detailed instructions that are so clear, without TMI.

As a person who has been stamping since the late 80s – early 90s, and have embossing powder‘s that go back to when Personal Stamp Exchange was still in business, I can attest to the fact that the embossing powder‘s will work forever. The key to good embossing is having a wet, juicy pad. Versa mark is great, and some of us older stampers still have our Color Box pads. Color Box was the first company to come up with slow drying pigment pads and you could use a colored ink with clear embossing powder If you had limited funds.. Color Box came out with Versa Mark, I think, which was originally a pad designed to leave a watermark on dark papers. I recently saw at my local Hobby Lobby that Color Box is now been owned by Momenta.

Most useful video I’ve seen on embossing. Thank you so much. ❤

Thanks for all the help in embossing, you have given m more confidence. Ruth down under.

Wow you did an amazing job explaining how to use embossing supplies. I can say I can walk away feeling knowledgeable and not scared to finally try embossing.Thanks for being amazing!

Embossing powder is magic!! it's the reason I started cardmaking :)

Great information in this video. I've always been intimidated to use embossing powders but I think I'll have to try your suggestions. They look great and fun to do. As always. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you SO much for this video! Easy to follow and straight to the point for an embossing newbie like me!! I'm hoping to buy an embossing pad and powders soon as it's been looong overdue!! Much love and happy holidays love 💞

Yeah another of your embossing powder videos. It's great to watch all of the many ways people have discovered using these powders. I've had great results so far clear embossing over copic inks, and all pigment and distressed ink colors too. So great you demonstrated the use of older embossing powders. I suspect a lot has to do with storage as in keeping it dry and away from direct light. I've used actually 20 year plus older embossing powders I had back in the day of rubber on wood stamps only. Now with the clear and rubber without blocks there is so many more ways to use and explore stamping. Especially with the use of embossing powders clear and translucent or opaques. I'm off to do some exploring myself with your wonderful video shares today to help bolster and carry me on my next journey of discovery.

Lovely cards, as usual. I have some gold embossing powder that is 25 years old! Works wonderfully! Not sure you could get crafting heat tools in them days, I used a paint removing heat tool. I only started doing card making 2 1/2 years ago, and my goodness things have changed! A lot of fun! I have 20 year old Brushos too! Lol! Got them for a course, didn't know all the things they could do until recently ❤️

Been embossing forever, yet I learned many excellent helps from this demo! Yay! Thanks Rebecca!

Loved this video, some beautiful designs and combos here, very well explained, feeling very inspired now to try embossing for the first time! Thank you Rebecca :)

First time watching your video thank you so much, I learned alot as I also have very old embossing powder. I live in Ontario, Canada.

This video was such a good summary of embossing techniques, I always heat underneath vellum and foil card, and if it curls I use laminator to flatten it. Good to know about distress oxides, and you can always put 2 coats of Versamark on top of any dye ink to get an enhanced shine. 🌍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🌍

Thanks, Rebecca! Great tips!

I have not use embossing powder in a very long time. Now you have inspired me 😉

Wonderful & very informative video Rebecca, thanks so much for sharing your knowledge & talent!!! Those cards are all amazing!!! Stay well, blessings always!!!
