Hello and welcome to Simon Says Stamp “Winter Twinkle” December Card Kit Blog Hop! Sorry I have been a bit MIA in the past few days, I have been traveling to USA and got back last week. I’m still getting used to the current time zone and catching up on all the work. Its crazy!

I’m happy to join to blog hop dedicated to the December card kit from Simon which focuses on heat embossing! How fun is that? I remember the feeling I had when I melted embossing powder for the first time – felt like pure magic! I even took the heat embossing supplies to my mother’s home and showed her how its done! I was and still am very much excited about embossing, so much you can do with it! So many cool techniques!

I think I usually use heat embossing for backgrounds for my cards (especially for the resist technique), but I also love to heat emboss sentiments. That cool raised surface creates such a wow factor! Here are a few more cards of mine with embossing:

  4. Super cool kit, and awesome cards, as well! Thanks for a chance at this giveaway! I have a question, the other day I was embossing using Ranger’s white embossing powder on Bazzill cardstock, and when I was done a part of the embossing powder disappeared, and only the colour left by the Versamark was left! Would that be because I over heated it?

  5. Hello Yana – this is a first for me. Thanks for sharing your talents – I will be sure to subscribe to your channel.

  6. I love the tiny triangles and little bitty banners. The gold and silver together is beautiful. The cards are great.

  7. Oh my what beautiful cards Yana. Thank you for sharing with us. I cant wait until my kit arrives (should be any day now). Im excited to use the powders in the kit. Ive been wanting them for a long time.

Like what you see? Drop me a comment! Thanks!
