Hi there Kerry here
I was lucky enough to win some tubs of embossing powder earlier this year. However I didn't really know much about using them so after a little bit of messing and trial and error I decided to google uses.
I stumbled across this video on youtube so had a little go.
It was definitely a case of trial and error.
I started by using a powder called Princess Pink which had a high glitter content but it didn't quite melt properly.
so I started again and used a Violet powder which didn't have as much glitter. You have to be really quick to pour it into the silicone mold/mould (I really don't know which is the correct spelling) because it sets VERY quickly. Don't worry if you did like I did and spill a bit around the edges because it easily snaps off when it is set.
and this is what I ended up with once it was set and I had carefully snapped the excess bits off
I added it to a felt flower - ta dah
Thanks for looking.
How cute is that flower ? TFS x

This is a great reminder for me not to buy pre-made embellishments when I could just make my own - thank you x
