Easy Heat Embossing Tutorial

Heat Embossed Card
Hi friends surprised to see a simple card from me?! Well I kept it simple to demonstrate how it was created!
Red Tacky Tape
As part of my DT work for Crafters Corner , I was sent some super sticky Red Tacky Tape [ a double sided adhesive tape much stronger than the regular adhesive tape] which was purported to be heat resistant too in addition to all its super stickiness!
To test it out , I started with a plain white card and here is how you can heat emboss without an embossing ink pad!
Heat Embossing Tutorial 
Add a band of adhesive tape [shown in red with its plastic lining on] on the card.
Heat Embossing Tutorial 
Peel off the red plastic lining to reveal the clear adhesive layer underneath

Heat Embossing Tutorial 
Pour your embossing powder. I used Ranger's super fine gold embossing powder.

Heat Embossing Tutorial 
Tap off the excess powder.

Heat with your embossing heat gun[I used the popular Ranger Heat gun] and dont you just love than band of embossed gold!!

Heat embossed a  Joy crafts die cut with the same embossing powder [ with help of Versamark watermark pad]

  9. Sonia, your simple is fabulous. I hadn't thought of using tape for embossing. What a great idea. I have got to get me some of that super fine embossing powder. It turns out beautifully. I also love your dry embossed chandelier. Is that an embossing folder?
    Blessings on your week,
    Teresa

  13. I didn't realize you could heat-emboss directly on that red tape...at least not so well! Definitely will have to try this technique. I believe they also sell sheets of it, which would be fun for punches/die cuts! Hope you are well. Best, CG
