stamped the summer flower stamp from IBS with versamark on red card stock and used sea foam embossing powder and tap of excess..
Now place the card stock on hot iron box correct side facing up.. in few seconds you can see the result.. if your card stock is so thick then place it on iron box for few more secs ..
so simple isn't it.. :)
repeated the same process for the black card stock.. used HOTP stamp for sentiment wish big and little stars..
Here is my tag using those embossed card stocks ...
i have stamped the white card stock and placed the black & red embossed panels and embellished the tag with some pearls and a white ribbon lace..
and my simple tag is ready .. :)

ReplyDeleteThank you Pooja.. :)
DeleteGreat Idea, Radhika, but what do you do to make sure that the powder doesnt stick to the hot iron?
ReplyDeleteThank you Divya... we have to place the powdered side up and heat the plain side ..so powder dosent come in contact with iron..:)
DeleteSuper !! Hehe but not for someone like me who manages to burn myself even while ironing clothes!!

DeleteLovely Radical! You are so resourceful to use the iron for embossing, I am waiting for my heat tool to arrive, I did use iron once to emboss, isn't it fun to find another way to work around? So glad you joined us at CSSC.
