Papertrey Ink Make It Monday #101 Layered Embossing

This week, on Nichole Heady's blog, Heather challenges us to take out our heat gun and layer our embossing. This was a fun challenge although it did require a little patience and discipline. Sometimes it is hard for me to know when to stop heating my embossing powder.  I have a tendency to want to "over do". This would not work well with this technique as the previous layer of embossing would be melted away!

I did get the hang of it though. The kissing couple image was the first image I embossed. I used a black sparkle embossing powder to give them a little pizzazz. Next, I embossed a square image with white embossing powder to draw attention to their kiss.:-) Finally, I embossed the sentiments in white as well.
