Stamp Press Embossing


This technique came from a sample I saw from a convention swap. For this pin example I used 3 butterfly punches glued together with Tombow. Then I embossed 4 layers of clear embossing powder. While the embossing is still warm, press a stamp into it. For this one I used the "xoxo" from "Define Your Life." Leave the stamp in place for a minute while it cools. Remove the stamp and rub shimmer paint on top to reveal your stamped image. I then embellished it with a few rhinestones for some extra bling.
