Today's Card......

I used my pancake maker for consent heat 

and a rectangle piece of grey board, popped on top of a craft mat.

I layered up lots of different colours of embossing powders, some from Lindy's, 

which have a wonderful shine to them.

It's a great way to use up my stash of powders....

I also used Frantage and a toothpick to get the look of the waves and clouds.

Once I was happy with the many layers of embossing powders I quickly pulled off the molten powders and stamped into them using a text stamp, giving some texture to the beach area.

I die cut the Coastal Tree several times, sprayed with a shine spray 

and finished with the sentiment stamped in brown.

I left some of the embossing powders, on the beach area flow off the grey board.

I loved the way the text stamping added some texture at the bottom.

I have found this technique of layering of embossing powders highly addictive 

and there are so many ways to do this. 

Thank you Loll for the Fun Technique this month.

This is My Card.....

Use any technique that layers embossing powders and keep your card CAS.

Include some stamping and your choice....My choice is heat embossing.

I used my electric pancake maker and a craft mat.

This gives constant heat and the powders don't fly everywhere.

I started with melting clear UTEE and then had fun layering lots of 

different colours of embossing powders.

Some of them are Lindy's, which have a wonderful shine to them.

I used a cocktail stick to make some patterns and then very quickly pulled off the craft mat 

and stamped into the molten powders with a leaf stamp that had gold ink on it.

I left the stamp in place until it cooled and carefully pulled it off.

I was really surprised how well the stamp had stamped and loved it!

Of course if you weren't happy then remelt it and start again.....

I have stamped part of the background card with light grey foliage.

The sentiment has been stamped in green ink and then half heat embossed in gold.

The solid embellishment easily came off the craft mat and I used 3D glue to mount onto the card.

Such a fun technique and I have loads of 'experimenting' to use for future cards.

Pop across to the blog and be inspired by the amazing team and Jane....our very talented Guest.
