Hi Everyone
Sue Here
This month is all L-O-V-E-D up month and I am showing you what you can do with polystyrene and embossing powders.
Firstly get a Craft polystyrene heart. I purchased these from The Range for £1.99 and you get some small ones and medium ones. I've chosen a medium one for the demo.
Next roll it in Versamark and Apple Red embossing powder. Heat set. BE CAREFUL as the polystyrene starts to bubble when hot. I used a poky tool to hold it. Its really good as it forms craters in the heart shape giving it dimension.
Then add other colours like Indigo, Black and Gold Rich. I also used a Versamark pen to get into some of the craters left by the heat gun. Keep going until you have your desired effect. I then added a piece of ribbon and dressmakers pin for the loop and a sentiment from WOW 'Love beyond Measure' with a dressmakers pin and WOW ebony embossing powder.
Keep warm and all loved up this month...Sue!
This is beautiful. Must have a go with this technique.
