@@sonton9059 I've been papercarfting since 2005. I started with scrapbooking. Then I tried some DIY home decor and then I started cardmaking! I recommend watching lots of videos, but then just go for it! Find what you enjoy and just get started!
a bit of humor: when I started this card making hobby and embossing powder first hit the crafting market, there was no way to heat it other than hold it over a candle flame or your stove burner!!!! Fire and paper? yeah I know...but it worked. what a great day when heat tools came along.
Thank you for all the details and different demonstrations! Not only did I get the information I was looking for, but now I have several more ideas and inspirations for other projects... doggone it...
Wow you did an amazing job explaining how to use embossing supplies. I can say I can walk away feeling knowledgeable and not scared to finally try embossing.Thanks for being amazing!
As a person who has been stamping since the late 80s - early 90s, and have embossing powder‘s that go back to when Personal Stamp Exchange was still in business, I can attest to the fact that the embossing powder‘s will work forever. The key to good embossing is having a wet, juicy pad. Versa mark is great, and some of us older stampers still have our Color Box pads. Color Box was the first company to come up with slow drying pigment pads and you could use a colored ink with clear embossing powder If you had limited funds.. Color Box came out with Versa Mark, I think, which was originally a pad designed to leave a watermark on dark papers. I recently saw at my local Hobby Lobby that Color Box is now been owned by Momenta.
Ha! I have several Colorbox pads that STILL work! I am happy to have a place to say this, because it's pretty amazing!!! I also have some really vintage Rubber Stampede ink spot & ombre pads that still have stamp-able ink! I don't use them, just keep them for memory's sake. But it blows my mind each time I check and they're not dry! Haha. The good ol' days!
Yeah another of your embossing powder videos. It's great to watch all of the many ways people have discovered using these powders. I've had great results so far clear embossing over copic inks, and all pigment and distressed ink colors too. So great you demonstrated the use of older embossing powders. I suspect a lot has to do with storage as in keeping it dry and away from direct light. I've used actually 20 year plus older embossing powders I had back in the day of rubber on wood stamps only. Now with the clear and rubber without blocks there is so many more ways to use and explore stamping. Especially with the use of embossing powders clear and translucent or opaques. I'm off to do some exploring myself with your wonderful video shares today to help bolster and carry me on my next journey of discovery.
oh yay! Thanks for heading back into the library lol! I really appreciate all the time you spend with me and I am so happy to hear you are getting some good ideas here and there!💕
Great information in this video. I've always been intimidated to use embossing powders but I think I'll have to try your suggestions. They look great and fun to do. As always. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching! To this day I still feel like embossing powder is magic! Just love the way it looks as it's melting lol! I do have another video sharing embossing powder tips and tricks where I collaborated with a fellow cardmaker and between the two of our videos there are a ton of ideas: th-cam.com/video/EQDy-d5lHjw/w-d-xo.html
Thank you SO much for this video! Easy to follow and straight to the point for an embossing newbie like me!! I'm hoping to buy an embossing pad and powders soon as it's been looong overdue!! Much love and happy holidays love 💞
What a terrific video and all of your ideas easily done. I am excited to know that I can emboss with Distress Oxides, yay! Like some of the other ladies I have very old embossing powders but I gave them a go the other day and yes, they still work. Well done and thank you so much; happy to subscribe! 🇳🇿😀
I just discovered the Wagner heat tool and I love it too! I was introduced to it by Kim from Emerald Creek who creates some amazing and unique embossing powders! 😍
Loved this video, some beautiful designs and combos here, very well explained, feeling very inspired now to try embossing for the first time! Thank you Rebecca :)
Thank you! If you enjoyed this one, have another heat embossing video where I collaborated with a crafty friend for some more tips and tricks using embossing powder: th-cam.com/video/EQDy-d5lHjw/w-d-xo.html
This video was such a good summary of embossing techniques, I always heat underneath vellum and foil card, and if it curls I use laminator to flatten it. Good to know about distress oxides, and you can always put 2 coats of Versamark on top of any dye ink to get an enhanced shine. 🌍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🌍
Lovely cards, as usual. I have some gold embossing powder that is 25 years old! Works wonderfully! Not sure you could get crafting heat tools in them days, I used a paint removing heat tool. I only started doing card making 2 1/2 years ago, and my goodness things have changed! A lot of fun! I have 20 year old Brushos too! Lol! Got them for a course, didn't know all the things they could do until recently ❤️
Thank you! It's great when products we spend our hard earned money on stand the test of time! Glad to hear that even a metallic embossing powder lasted that long! Have a wonderful, crafty week!
Wonderful & very informative video Rebecca, thanks so much for sharing your knowledge & talent!!! Those cards are all amazing!!! Stay well, blessings always!!!
I only use embossing powders from Ranger, and always the super fine ones in white, black and clear. If I need a coloured embossing I just stamp with the colour I want and then use the clear embossing powder - great tip for a small craft budget! 👍🏼
Thank you for sampling and showing us your techniques. It has given me some lovely ideas with what I can use my embossing powers for. Cheers from Liz Western Australia.😊
Happy Monday morning? I in tend to play with my waffle flower media mat since it got delivered two days ago! Think I will get out the embossing powders to use......always good ideas from you! Staring. On Valentines cards so lots of embossed hearts are coming! Keep up your videos.........I love them!
Yes, sigh, here we go with another week. I was up until 1 am editing this video so I guess I am ok with it being Monday lol because then we are one day closer to another weekend lol. I love that Tons of Hearts Stamp Set because it is such a staple! And I LOVE making Valentines cards for some reason. Even more than Christmas cards. So expect lots of love themed cards in the near future lol! Heat embossing and ink blending are my top two favorite ways to use the mat! So enjoy! Have a wonderful, crafty week Kathy!
So glad to hear it was helpful! I am a big believer in the idea that all of this should ALWAYS be fun 💕 Thanks so much for watching and for your kind words.
Can you put the embossing ink on using a method other than stamping or rubbing the ink pad? For example, can I use a stylus to first rub against the ink pad and then on the paper? Can embossing ink be used in a glass pen? Can I use a paint brush to apply the ink?
Hi There! I love your channel! I wish I could afford all the items you have. You create some really beautiful cards. This may be a really stupid question but I am just starting to craft. Most of the cards I have seen made, don't fold or have a inside and if they do, it is never shown. Is it me? Do people just send cards like postcards? Do you sign them? I usually put a personal message in all my cards 🙃. Just wondering... also do you use Tim Holt fussy cut scissors? If so are they really good, they seem expensive so I just wondered. Thank you😀
Thanks so much Lisa! Not a stupid question at all. I usually just don't show the part where I attach the card panel to a card base (the folded portion) because I noticed people stopped watching at those points in my videos lol. I do own the Tim Holtz Mini Snips and they are good quality. I own a few pairs of small scissors and I usually reach for my Cutterbee's, but the Tim ones are super well made and high quality. I think all my small scissors were about the same price. I don't usually mind spending a little extra for tools like that because I tend to keep them for years and years.
It is not wall mounted.

Hi, I make things with clay and I want patterns to have the embossing power in. Do I have to use the ink or can I just pour over the gaps to melt and then seal after, because I can't paint the ink inbetween and get it that precise?
You definitely don't have to use ink! Any adhesive would work. Also if you can't use adhesive you can even get embossing powder to stay put with water and then heat set it!
Great video but I really would like to know what the triangular box you used for mixing the powder in is called I could not quite hear what you said thanks
Thank you! So sorry! I also forgot to list the tray in my supply list! It is a bead tray...Here it is in several stores: • Beadsmith MAGICAL TRAY For Rhinestones --- ldli.co/e/59ypgm --- ldli.co/e/3do4n3 • 20 PCS Bead Sorting Trays Triangle White Plastic --- amzn.to/3o0uQrz [ Amazon US ]
Great video! Lots of helpful info, tips and technics. Thanks for sharing your talent and technics. I’m a new subie and I clicked the bell for more. Oh yes and the cards are very pretty!
I don't know about all powders or brands or whatnot but the only one I've ever had trouble with was a Glow-In-The+Dark powder. I loved the he out of it, too, but didn't use it fast enough and it just won't glow anymore. Still a pretty color tho.
I always list all the supplies I use in the TH-cam Description box below the video. You can find the Memory Box foiled pad here: • Memory Box POLISHED FOIL 6x6 Paper Pack --- ldli.co/e/17zrp4 --- ldli.co/e/dz2x7e

@@singlemomofonelife yeah lol, they are those little taster spoons. I gave most to my kids who were little at the time and got a kick out of eating ice cream and yogurt with them.
My desk is from Ikea. The mat I am working on is the Waffle Flower Water Media Mat: Waffle Flower Water Media Mat --- ldli.co/e/dz2x9e --- ldli.co/e/znod4d
I am only brushing away the big piles of powder which can get in the way of a clean stamped image, but a nice layer of powder stays on when you use a dry brush like that. :)
Is there a way to apply the "liquid", for lack of a better term, via another means than stamp pad? In other words, because it has only JUST occurred to me, could we simply pour on the gooey stuff? You would certainly get as good a coverage if applied by bottle? Crafting changes, why not this? :-).
Jennifer McGuire (I think- maybe Kristina Werner) said there was a problem with an old embossing powder-I don’t think it is made anymore, had problems.
Hmmmm not sure what the issue is, but I agree with Lisa....try letting your heat tool get nice and hot before bringing it to your project. If that doesnt work, make sure you are getting a nice coat of embossing ink on to really hold the powder in place. Which heat tool are you using and which embossing ink?
@@RebeccaKeppel I have Hampton art embossing pad, and my heating tool is from Marcy Lichida Embossing heating tool. It’s pretty old had it put away for a long time
@@nancystrebel3339 I've not used the Hampton Art Embossing pad before, but it needs to be VERY sticky to keep the embossing powder in place, it may need re-inking? And I do know the Marvy heat tool is a good one. As long as it is working right, it should be expelling heat more than air.
I haven't made a wedding card in a long time! I guess probably because weddings have been postponed for a while! :( But yes, I will definitely put that idea on the list for the near future!
That's amazing! Maybe be careful about working in an open well ventilated space when using them lol, but still awesome! I love when products stand the test of time!

I have never rubbed off the extra powder with a brush as I want it to stay on the paper until after I emboss.
I am only brushing away the big piles of powder which can get in the way of a clean stamped image, but a nice layer of powder stays on when you use a dry brush like that. :)
Is there a way to apply the "liquid", for lack of a better term, via another means than stamp pad? In other words, because it has only JUST occurred to me, could we simply pour on the gooey stuff? You would certainly get as good a coverage if applied by bottle? Crafting changes, why not this? :-).
Are the links for linkden your page ?
Which links are you looking for? Supply list links are always in the TH-cam description box below the video :)
@@RebeccaKeppel I was just curious if the linkden links are for your account. So u get credit for it if I purchase anything from it ?

Anti-static powder, as in, corn starch?
Yes! Some TH-camrs say anti-static powder is corn starch. Some people make their own anti-static bags.
TFS!
Thanks for watching!
Jennifer McGuire (I think- maybe Kristina Werner) said there was a problem with an old embossing powder-I don’t think it is made anymore, had problems.
Oh good to know!
My embossing powder won’t stay on it blows off and won’t melt. What am I doing wrong
Try letting your heating tool heat about 30 seconds before using it on ur project.
Hmmmm not sure what the issue is, but I agree with Lisa....try letting your heat tool get nice and hot before bringing it to your project. If that doesnt work, make sure you are getting a nice coat of embossing ink on to really hold the powder in place.
Which heat tool are you using and which embossing ink?
@@RebeccaKeppel I have Hampton art embossing pad, and my heating tool is from Marcy Lichida Embossing heating tool. It’s pretty old had it put away for a long time
@@nancystrebel3339 I've not used the Hampton Art Embossing pad before, but it needs to be VERY sticky to keep the embossing powder in place, it may need re-inking? And I do know the Marvy heat tool is a good one. As long as it is working right, it should be expelling heat more than air.
Have you tried the new embossing tool from Rabbit Hole?
No! But I 100% want to! I haven't been able to get a hold of one yet!
I like you t hair with curl💖
Thank you!!💞
Can u plz make wedding card
I haven't made a wedding card in a long time! I guess probably because weddings have been postponed for a while! :( But yes, I will definitely put that idea on the list for the near future!
I'm using embossing powder that was purchased in the late 1980's! Aside from a strange smokey-sweet smell when I use them, they seem to work ok.
That's amazing! Maybe be careful about working in an open well ventilated space when using them lol, but still awesome! I love when products stand the test of time!
Wow learned so much from your video. Will try these techniques. Thanks.
So glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching and for leaving such a kind comment!
