Heat Emboss, Stencil and Watercolor

By on January 6, 2018

I clearly am super into teal and purple at the moment. Purple used to be my favourite color but it has recently landed the number two spot since I have fallen in love with teal. It’s pretty magical to use clear heat embossing powder with watercolor paint. If you haven’t tried it, you really should give it a try. Such a satisfying experience! I have to say I really love the “Eastern Beauty” Stamp set by Stampin Up. I have been using it a lot lately.

Colored Cardstock Amazon
Clear Emboss Powder: Stampin Up
Heat Tool (for setting embossing powder – no, hairdryers don’t work): Amazon
