Embossing on Glimmer/Glitter Paper

 

Technique Time.  Who would have thought that it was possible to heat emboss on glimmer/glitter paper? Our Stampin' Up! CEO had demonstrated it, and it is pretty slick. I was totally surprised at the detail on this stamp came out. To do the technique, simply use the embossing buddy on your glimmer/glitter paper, stamp your image onto it with Versamark. Dip into your embossing powder, heat it as usual, and there you have it!
