Heartfelt Sympathy - 1

Card details: I stamped the greeting in VersaMark ink on thick Whisper White and heat embossed in with Copper Embossing Powder. Not familiar with heat embossing?  Here are the steps to follow:

How to heat emboss Copper Heartfelt Sympathy - 1

Start with the embossing buddy.  Lightly rub it all over your card stock that you want to emboss on.  This will remove static from the paper that can cause embossing powder to stick in areas other then the stamped image.

Next, ink up your stamp in VersaMark clear ink and stamp it on to the card stock.  This sticky, wet ink is slow drying so your powder will stick to it until you can melt it with the heat tool.

Sprinkle the embossing powder liberally all over the image.

Make sure that powder is clinging to ALL of the image and dump a lot on!  Then shake off the excess and put it back in the jar.  Make sure you tap off all the powder that is not clinging to the image.

Use the heat tool to melt the powder.  Hold the tip an inch or so away from the paper and slowly move it around the image, when the entire image is shiny (no dark, dull spots), you are done!

Heat embossing = instant elegance.  And a personally hand made card means so much more – especially when someone has suffered a loss of a beloved family member.

I also heat embossed the inside sentiment – this stamp set is so lovely with the flourishes on the letters!
