Chipboard Heart Ornament – Embossed!

February 8th, 2010

 

Happy Monday!  I have another project for you today for the Valentine’s Tree that I’ve been working on and it involves Embossing and chipboard!  You can also use this adorable heart to embellish a card, scrapbook page, notebook cover, etc.

Several embossing and chipboard tips:

• If you use Craft ink to color your chipboard, you can either let it sit for an hour or so to let it dry, or you can pour on clear embossing powder and heat it with your Stampin’ Up Heat Tool.  The embossing powder will melt and when it cools down it will be a wonderful hard, shiny surface. 
• When is it completely embossed?  When the surface is completely shiny and you don’t see any powder any more.
• If you get Stampin’ Spots, you will have 12 one inch ink pads for only $25.95 (for craft).  What a value!

I hope you enjoy the video!  Be sure to leave a comment to let me know what you think and if there are other embossing projects you’d like to see!  I’ve got a few planned, but I’d love to know what you would like to see as well!  (I actually filmed this video a few weeks ago, BPN…before pretty nails.  Haha!)
