Happy Tuesday!
Hope you enjoy this week's tutorial. For those of you new to embossing, I forgot to mention in my video, that once you put the embossing powder on your dimensional element, you will need to heat & melt it onto the project with your craft heater. As a side note, I've been asked many times if a hair dryer will work and it will not. It just doesn't get hot enough for the powder to melt and it's too strong, so may blow away the powder, too!Also, stay tuned as I'll post the National Scrapbooking Month 'Miracle Kit' contents & fun alternative workshop idea in the next day or so!
Check out CTMH's craft heater on my website. From past experience, buying a quality heat gun is essential to projects needing one - so while you may save money buying a cheap one, you're also more likely to burn your projects or have the heater burn out on you... making you spend more in the long run.
