[@heatherhartin4879]

Greetings from Brisbane Australia, this technique is amazing. Thankyou for sharing

[@dropofsunshine]

Thanks for watching! 😘❤️❤️

[@lindastubbington6105]

Hi Marta. I watched Marion's tutorial on this technique some time ago. I like that you've used an iron! Must have a go x

[@dropofsunshine]

Thank you so much, Linda. That’s great. You should definitely give it a try. Let me know how you get on once you finish your beautiful cards. have a lovely day my friend ❤️

[@7WordsWorth]

It looks like a great way to use up our embossing powders. But I wonder if the embossing powder when heated is reacting to the ink below because it shrinks up. I’ll definitely have to play with this today. Thanks.😊

[@dropofsunshine]

Thank you so much. I’m so happy you enjoy it once the powder is rem melting is rising up a little bit so that’s why it looks like it’s shrinking. Wishing you a wonderful day ❤️

[@JoySibley-l4t]

Very cool!

[@sue_nz_kiwi2520]

New subbie here. That's a cool idea. I can see a lot of variations of this. Molten gold or silver... Sending greetings from New Zealand

[@dropofsunshine]

Hi Sue and welcome on my channel thank you so much for watching my videos. I am so happy to hear that you enjoy them. I am sending you greetings from Poland and wishing you a wonderful day. ❤️

[@mamapillow8365]

Wow, these are so beautiful! I love embossing powder and missed Marion's take on this, gotta try it now. Thanks so much for the video.

[@dropofsunshine]

Thank you so much, my friend. I’m so happy you like it. Have a lovely day ❤️

[@helenthiessen5205]

We used to do all embossing with an iron, before the embossing tools were in invented

[@dropofsunshine]

Thank you so much Helen☺️ I love to going back to the older techniques. There’s so many fabulous things I did in the past before I got the access to all fancy tools. It It is so nice from time to time to travel back to these days where I had to be way more creative without all that specialty gear, so I do appreciate much learning about “old school” techniques. Thank you so much for watching. I’m sending you hugs and I wish you a fabulous day ❤️

[@Cre8tiveConnexionsbyLillia]

My feelings exactly. I do love the new rotational stamp positioners as it means less buying of preprinted background papers and back to making our own. New lease of life for 30 year old old red rubber stamps. There are products that I buy now, because I have lost some eyesight and dexterity, but I did prefer when cardmaking was about handcrafting ,and we made more individual cards, not all so similar as most of the videos on here nowadays. I would love to see people learning more from creators like yourself, the old techniques and learning to colour properly, and good old fashioned 3 d decoupage by craft knife, not electric machine, and not rely on layering stamps doing all the shading for you. Don't get me wrong , cardmaking it is still a hobby and we don't all have time or ability to spend on learning techniques, but I would love to see less promoting of expensive products we don't need and more sharing of old skills. So thanks Marta. I'm Lillia from Scotland.

[@deb8761]

This effect looks so lacy! I think recipients of these cards would wonder how you did it, So much fun!!!

[@dropofsunshine]

Thank you so much, Deb. I’m so happy you like it. Have a lovely day ❤️

[@trudiemccrae6699]

Clever technique, it looks like coral when reheated on the card! Looking forward to seeing what you do with them next time! Xx

[@dropofsunshine]

Thank you so much, Trudie, part number two is just about to go live. I’m so happy you like it. Have a wonderful day my friend ❤️

[@kristybrown9510]

Such a great idea and makes the colours pop. love the bubble pop of the embossing powders when setting them to the paper. so clever. Thanks Marta. Kristy - Brisbane, Australia.

Thank you so much ❤️

[@nancycrutchfield117]

Wow thank you so much! I have a hard time embossing so this is marvelous! Thank you so much for sharing, love it!

[@dropofsunshine]

Hi Nancy, thank you so much for watching my video. I’m so happy you like it. Yes this technique is fabulous especially if you’ve got an old stash of the embossing powders that never get used. I create couple of the ironed pieces and store them in additional box ready to use when I need them I can then just placed them on the card and slightly melted with my heat gun tool without the need of reaching for iron every time I would like to create more, I’m sending you hugs and I wish you a fabulous day ❤️

[@patricialake8968]

Loved watching you doing these, Marta. I have so many embossing powders that I haven't used so I am going to try this technique.. Hi from Australia..

Hello Marta - super idea ! I'm watching from Germany - and I'm looking for years for such an ebossing Folder with type writing ! Where do you get yours ? I will be very thankful for your help 🤗🙋‍♀️♥️

[@dropofsunshine]

Thank you so much, my friend. This scripted embossing folder is from company called Tattered lace, it is so old that I believe that unfortunately it is now retired. But I’ll keep that in mind and if I come across another scripted embossing folder I will give you a shout or I made it in the video sending hugs and wishing you a lovely day ❤️

Interesting..I wonder if anyone has embossed on tissue paper...then made the paper translucent...that would be a cool experiment!!

[@dropofsunshine]

What an excellent idea thank you so much for the tip. I will give it a try although I’m scared that the tissue paper can burn easily but I will definitely give it a go. Thank you once again. I’m sending you hugs and I wish you a fabulous day ❤️

Awesome technique, the backgrounds look amazing! I am in Bournemouth in the UK. xxx💖💖💖

[@dropofsunshine]

Thank you so much ❤️

[@sislertx]

I use to so embossing but found it always looses greedy as heck..found out it was because I heated it way too long. I'm thinking of giving it another try with Tim holtz translucent ones..now I want the other kind too..

[@dropofsunshine]

Thank you so much, my friend and yes this is happening too many crafters embossing taking a little bit of the practice. I was also the one who was constantly overheating and burning my embossing especially with the white one and then I was wondering why is it not looking as good as on the crafters tutorial. I eventually learned that I was overheating my embossing and that’s why it was turning yellowish. Thank you once again for watching my videos. I’m sending you hugs and I wish you fabulous day ❤️

[@junerobbins6871]

This is awesome. I don't have an embossing machine.

[@roswithadeutschmann2657]

Hello - you can do it with a baking role or with a bottle (Paper between an ebossing folder) !

[@dropofsunshine]

Hi June for this technique you don’t really need an embossing machine. All you need is your powders baking paper and some sort of heat to melt like iron. Thank you so much for watching my videos. I’m watching your lovely day ❤️

[@carolmason8085]

Question: what kind of paper is the first large sheet of brown paper?

[@dropofsunshine]

Hi Carol, this is the baking paper. You will need some sort of the heat resistant layer to keep the embossing protected from attaching to your iron. Thank you so much for watching. I’m wishing you a fabulous day.❤️

[@honeydut]

How did the ink go thru the plastic to the cardstock?

[@dropofsunshine]

Hi my friend the ink actually doesn’t go through the plastic. I first smeared on the plastic sprayed with water and then turn it upside down. I just like to put the paper underneath so I can see the size of the background and know exactly where do I need to add inks. Hope this helps. thank you for watching my videos and I wish you a fabulous day ❤️

[@deborah5221]

From pittsburgh 😊

[@dropofsunshine]

Thank you so much ❤️

[@amkarei]

Videos such as these grease the wheels of my brain to the point of being hazardous to my marital state!! That said, I wonder if a variation of this technique couldn't also entail using a stencil, or a full coverage die, (and removed before applying heat) to perhaps incorporate a bit more defined design in the results?? 🤔 I'm thinking "galaxies for a card for an astronomy buff"? Maybe in another lifetime ... this project looks like one more missed supper! But OH WHAT GRAND RESULTS!!

[@SusanHolloway-m8e]

Think of the fun you will have trying out your thoughts. Of course if you like your results, you have to share your technique with the rest of us.😊.

[@amkarei]

@@SusanHolloway-m8e Will do 😉👍

[@dropofsunshine]

What a fabulous idea I love when all of us crafters can share our thoughts and point to new things and techniques. This is definitely a good idea to try and I am adding it to my bucket list. Let me know if you tried this already and how you get on with it. I’m sending you big hugs and I wish you a fabulous day ❤️

Really cool technique. Marion Emberson did hers with a little cooker like a George Foreman machine. As much as I love Marion, this technique seems much easier and gives more control. Love the cards. Oh, I forgot to say I’m watching from West Virginia, USA.

[@dropofsunshine]

Thank you so much, Cindy. I’m so happy you like it. Have a wonderful day my friend ❤️

[@amkarei]

Oh, ya ... I'd forgotten about Marion Emberson's vid! I also watched someone else doing a similar "thing"(?) with an electric waffle maker, wherein the waffle inserts could be removed. Can't remember what technique that was covering, though, as I don't own such a griddle.

[@Cre8tiveConnexionsbyLillia]

I have lots of ultra thick embossing powder . We used it in a tool called the Melting pot. We also used it with friendly plastic. It is basically a craft version of a children's chocolate tempering pot. We also used small , non steam irons to do this technique decades ago. We used the iron with coloured wax too , it was called encaustic wax art.

[@Cre8tiveConnexionsbyLillia]

The pancake maker, waffle maker technique is just the same old thing we did ages ago, just a different type of kitchen tool, that does the same thing.

[@amkarei]

@@Cre8tiveConnexionsbyLillia You must have been at this craft for a while!! Have you a new technique for using these? Or a new take on an old technique?

[@Do-U-Know-me00]

You could always glue or tape the melted powders down onto the card. OR. put the card with the melted powders on top of the card, inside the parchment paper, and iron it again. Then it wouldn't get those melted holes in it, that look so strange.

[@dropofsunshine]

Thank you so much for letting me know I’m afraid if I will place the card between the parchment paper and iron it again the part of the embossing would stick to the parchment paper besides I like those little holes. It’s kind of distressed look which I was going after, thank you so much for watching my videos. I wish you a fabulous day ❤️

I’ve been incredibly blessed in my life by receiving lots of my supplies through collaborations and design team work. I am trying to share various type of tutorials, some of them include more supplies but I also have the videos where I play with basic things, so hopefully all my friends will find something for themselves.
