Emboss with Eyeshadow Pt. 1

By on November 15, 2017


A fun way to use up old eyeshadow that you don’t use anymore or even pick up some cheap stuff from the dollar store to create this beautiful inexpensive technique. If you are already a card maker then you probably have the stuff you need. It is not expensive and is worth the investment.

~~~What you need~~~

Eyeshadow (obviously): old, new, used, doesn’t matter (sparkly or metallic works best)
Versamark Ink Pad: Stampin Up
Heat Tool (for setting embossing powder – no, hairdryers don’t work): Amazon
Heat and Stick powder (try it with glitter, for more fun!): Amazon
Fabulous new feather set (Feather Together): Stampin’ Up
Cardstock Options (don’t limit yourself to black): Stampin’ Up

Gorgeous inexpensive eyeshadow for your project:

My First ever video

By on March 22, 2016

This video is about a year old… so embarrassing to look back on it and see how bad my video editing skills were and how nervous I was behind the camera but I have come so far! It makes me proud to see where I am now.

This is a fun and easy card to make for beginners!
