Video: Mixed Embossing Powder + SSS Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hello! Today’s video shows a fun way to mix embossing powders… and is part of the Simon Says Stamp Late Spring Release Blog Hop. Oh, and I can’t forget to mention giveaways!

[Supplies are linked in the thumbnails at the end of this post.]

I love a good die. So I was thrilled to get the new Simon Says Stamp Butterfly Drift die. So many things you can do with it! I covered all the little butterflies with Versamark Ink and added a bit of Ranger Magenta and Liquid Platinum embossing powder. After heating the powder a little extra than normal, the powders start to blend together and give a unique look. Just another way to use any embossing powders! I saved my extra mixed powder in a little clear jar.

I used new Simon Says Stamp Mother’s Day stamp sentiments on both the inside and outside of the card with the Liquid Platinum embossing powder. That sentiment on the outside? Perfect for my momma.

I also cut the butterfly die from the front of a notecard to create a window and actually adhered the butterflies to the inside of the card…

I will be back soon with another way to use this die… for a completely different card.

You can find all the new Simon Says Stamp products HERE. Lots of great dies and stamps… be sure to check them out.

  1. Love your creative ideas & appreciate your tips for getting more out of what I have. Your ink tutorials have taught me so much. Thank you.

  2. I was waiting for you to put the embossing powered back, then you used a different color…..OH NO……I was thinking …”what are you doing?”
    I try to save every last fleck …..I’m on a budget. Then you mixed them…..ahhhhhhh….wonderful….love the idea and new color embossing powder!

  3. I love that you always show us more than one idea on how to use a product. Mixing the powders is such a great idea!!

  4. Love, love, love this card! I love everything about it! The colors really POP together, the sentiments look so nicely finished with the embossing powder on the inside and outside of the card! It adds such a touch of elegance that just stamping in ink doesn’t quite bring to a card. And, I must say Jennifer, you are a very Crafty Crafter! I wish I saw your tip on making a paper handle when heat embossing the other night! Great tip!

    I just introduced my Mom to your videos. She watched them all day yesterday and was delighted with everything she lesrned. She particularlu likes that you type out the words to your videos on your blog. She can’t hear well and gave up watching so many other people’s videos. Thanks for all that you do for each of us!

    He IS Able!
