10 Embossing Techniques You HAVE to Try!

Hi guys I love using embossing powder and showed my son how it works- he's in his 30's- and he was so intrigued by it he actually did a greeting in a card for his mate's birthday card! I am in Australia so rarely get to see any "live" videos - replay for me but I love them. So a big "Thank you" for them all and the calming strumming from Tom as well. Also love "The Word of the Day" xx

I am so thankful you showed us white on white embossing. I don't have those stamps but I plan to use what I have. I watch all the time. I've learned so much!❤

Tom's music is so relaxing to listen to while watching! Thank You Tom!

Hi Gina, I'm binge watching some of your older videos. I absolutely love these techniques. I so enjoy your videos, the interaction you and Tom have and the relaxing music. You are such a great combo with your amazing talent. Unfortunately I rarely get to see the lives but still enjoy catching the replays. x

This episode has brought back so many special memories. 36 years ago, I went to a beginning stamping class and the minute that Holly used the ink and powder to emboss a floral image: I was hooked to stamping for life! I went on to work and teach at the same store. Every time I turned on the heat gun to show someone how to emboss was magical. I would be surrounded by stampers who wanted to share that moment. No matter how many times we had watched it or done it ourselves, it was always special. I just pulled out my gold pad and will play with my toys tomorrow.
Please consider making a rose gold metallic powder.

👁️👁️. Gina: the 👎🏻 is from me, your fan in Arizona 🌵 - as a reminder I’ve watched video & made extra notes in my BINDER… appreciate your trying to educate me on the video “saving techniques” …. HOWEVER I’m 81 this year, sooo give me a break for not understanding 🤦🏼‍♀️❣️
2 hospitals & a Senior Rehab center that gave entire 4th floor COVID, has left me in shambles … Will be calling in an order for new-to-me products as soon as I’m on the mend‼️
THANK YOU BOTH FOR INSPIRATION / ENTERTAINMENT when I’m needing it most ❣️❤️❣️

That embossing folder is just a perfect match for that gold-on-red!

Gina and Tom I love how you honour your parents. A perfect way to keep their spirits alive. It's beautiful.

Newbie here: I AM OBSESSED. I make simple kraft cards for family and special occasions and have just discovered Glitz Glitter Gel and these embossing techniques. I drove out and bought ALL the tools I needed the nexy day and I am literally obsessed. Thank you!

Thank you Gina for sharing your talents and creativity, humour and sincerity. I absolutely love your videos and look forward to watching them daily. Tom is hilarious and so engaging. You are my favourite person to watch and learn from. Please don’t ever retire!

56:17 OMG that’s so gorgeous

Silver and gold sofisticated and elegant

I love the tone on tone heat embossing… it’s gorgeous!

Had fun, great vid!!! Have to buy the little stamp. I love that stamp. It's my kind of stamp! OMG!!! I cracked up at swifter duster & had to run to the bathroom! I just use a small stream of 70% alcohol. Cleans everything up right quick. Dang it, I wanted to see the white pigment & white embossing powder. Tom walked into that one!🙂I am so glad you did the 2 colors because I have always wanted to do it but did not know I could without heating one at a time. Be kind to each other. Stay safe. Love to all

We laugh because we all do the same thing! Your videos are always fun and uplifting!

I quite like, “good hither and yon” as a greeting. We should start using that

I love seeing the interplay between the two of you. I can tell how much you love each other. Now on to the rest of the show

I love watching you! You both are the nicest people on you tube ❤❤

Great video with instruction. Also thanks to Tom for his guitar skills. You’ve brightened our day.

Awesome video! Mahalo Gina & Tom! Way better than a Sling Job!

I just want to say I love it, I've never done this before and need to get started & you gave great technique step by step

Love ya, Miss Gina K. you are an awesome teacher!

Wow that’s amazing. Gold embossing.

I loved them all but I think the last gold on red card just piped the post ❤

I’m new to paper crafting, and I’ve struggled with embossing. I appreciate this video so so much! Thank you!

Always good to refresh your techniques 😀

Watched the replay and saved it to it's own playlist!

Looks like fancy wrapping paper !!

I am loving this video … I stopped embossing because I never got it to look decent - probably because I didn’t use enough embossing powder … you have made it look so much more fun and much easier than I was making it

BEautiful Gina as always

great to be listening to you and learning too!

Missed the live 😢but really loved loved watching the replay…..so many great tips and I’ll look forward to watching crafting afternoon in the wee small hours of the morning 😮🇦🇺❤

Thanks so much for sharing.
Yes tip all about embossing

Love the silver on gold! All of these will be fun to try...

This is fascinating

Thanks for sharing! Great to be reminded of old techniques!!!

Love all these reminders on embossing powders.

The cards are very nice. Thanks for sharing

Omg! The black on black looks amazing, never tried it, but will now!❤❤

I love the word of the day 'sling job'. I might have to start a new word into my family lol

Last year I made about 200 embossed Christmas cards using the holiday tapestry stamp for the local Cards 4 Charity initiative. So pretty and quick to do. Silver on teal made stunning cards.

Thank you for all your wonderful tips. I’m so green … trying to soak up as much information that you share. ❤

Thanks for getting My crafty juices flowing on Embossing! It was what got Me hooked to begin with in card making ❤😊

How cool is that!!❤

Thank you for all those interesting ideas. I am looking forward to trying them all out.

These are spectacular! Thank you!

Gotta say... although no finished card, I really appreciate the techniques. Yes, I am familiar with many techniques but a refresher is always inspiring. The same techniques are also valuable for those beginning their card crafting journey. Thank you!

Great job always! ❤

love this embossing recap.

I love a craft session especially if there's a word of the day!

Love the black on black! ❤️

Gina, first I loved the video I can't wait to try them all!. I also wanted to say that you and Tom make your videos so much fun! Thank you for making my day so happy.

I love this video. It is something that I can do. I am not a crafty person but I was charged your videos all the time. Thank you for all of your video's. Elesa.

Beautiful techniques. Love red and gold background.

I love the gold and silver together, absolutely gorgeous.

This is a fabulous video! Thank you for showing all the varieties.

Beautiful. !

Haven’t been here a bit, so excited to see this after the show! Thank you for everything! Your inks are the very best. Especially for blending!

Love the silver + gold technique Gina!! WOW!!

Seen the replay on June 13, 2024. I love this stamp set. Purchase when it first came out. I do use it throughout the year, I just purchase the new tapestry embossing folder, can’t wait to use it. Thanks Gina for sharing, you’re amazing ❤

Gina, thanks so much for the variety of techniques and the actual demonstration of embossing….sometimes I feel embarrassed that as card maker of many years, I have not mastered the use of embossing powders…you make this fun!

Love all these techniques ❤

It's our 25th anniversary this year. They haven't been perfect but they have worked for us! Now i have ideas for cards! I'm thinking a liquid platinum powder image of a motorcycling going across a brushed silver card. It's swimming around in my head and I'm going to add it to my card idea booklet. The backgrounds are gorgeous!

Thank you for the wonderful class on embossing. Such great tips and information. My nephew just got engaged and I’ve got some ideas for a card for him and his fiancé! Have a great day!

these are gorgeous

I love these techniques - embossing makes any card magical !! Thank you Gina !

Beautiful designs, ideas! You are so creative! I’m grateful you try new things and share them with us. I don’t take the time to do this. Thanks Gina!

Awesome video - I've done these techniques and forgotten them BUT never thought to emboss over an embossed panal - I immediately thought of so many folders I wanted to try with fine gold. THANK YOU!!!!

You are new to me, a beginner, and highly praised; I was glad I could learn your techniques! I am inspired.😊

Gina Thanks for the technique recap. Fun way to review! The last panel you did with the gold embossing on red cardstock would make a beautiful card with a white die cut poinsetta on top! OOOHHH the ideas! LOL! TFS💖

Gina &Tom I watched the rebroadcast this a.m. Your video was excellent with info we could use. Thanks for the hard work you put into this video. 🇨🇦

My first time to watch your channel and I went stucked! So much of your tip that can be used. Now I'm a subscriber from Sweden. My first thing to do is to find me a "embossing magic cloth" and this tool you have for making the embossing powder and stamp go all over the place. Looking forward to watch you and thank's a lot!

Love the red with gold

Amazing video, brilliant techniques, thanks so much Gina & Tom ❤👍

Thanks for all the tips a d techniques!❤❤

Thank you, Gina. For showing us how we can use both the silver and gold embossing powders on the same image. The picture of the card you made is what made me want to watch the video. Thank Tom for suggesting it. Now I am going to order that stamp and make a bunch of cards using that technique.

I've never watched your videos but know of your products. The gold and silver card is beautiful. I own practically everything but hav never tried embossing. Oh yes. I have the powders, heater, watermark pad, etc. I must start!!!

Very helpful thank u❤!

Really appreciate the experimentation, something I wouldn’t do or think of on my own.

Gina
I watched this video on replay. I was watching the crop and create unboxing at the same time as yours.Also had a 1 1/2 grand baby here that doesn’t stop.
I loved your techniques manny of those I have done based on previous videos. But most of all I love the embossing folder with the gilded gold. So beautiful, will have to try that next time I craft. Thank you.

Need to get back to these techniques

I love the silver and gold, never thought of that.

❤ all your videos ! Thanks for all the tips.

Thanks you Gina. I learned a lot with this video. Carol

Great tips! I love embossing! Thank you!

Thanks Gina , you took me back to my early days of card making, when we embossed a lot. Love the gold on gold etc.

What fun ideas. Great cards!!

Hey from ms it's fun to c new and old ways hey Tom love word of day makes my day❤😊

Finally got a chance to watch this and am inspired to use this for the large number of Christmas cards I have to do. Thanks for this blast from the past!

Sorry I missed the live, but I really liked it! So fun.

Enjoying this on rerun and mostly new to me.

Thank you for sharing these super cool techniques that I have not tried! Love you guys!

Greetings! Gina I am interested in the hand tool you are using to brayer on top of the Misti. Thank you for your fun vids!

All so beautiful!! Thanks for the inspiration!!🧑🏼‍🎨😀

Love the techniques video. This has given me a bunch of ideas for holiday cards.

Great tips Gina, and great reminders for all of us! Especially for black inked/embossed sentiments! Thank you! Thank you! They do look very classy!❤

Wow! Watched this on rewatch and Holy mackerel, chocked full with inspiration and techniques. Gina, my goodness, you are such a wonderful instructor and make things seem actually doable for a relatively new card maker as myself. I am so inspired to get to it with the Holiday Tapestry folder and stamp set that I purchased last year but illness kept me from using for my 2022 Christmas cards. Thank you for this fabulous session.

Watching your replay and I love this technique. I had to agree about the new years card idea. I actually send out Halloween, thanksgiving, Christmas and new years cards each year (as well as other holidays). I send about 25 for each occasion. Last year I did all silver and gold for new years, and everyone absolutely loved those. Even better than some of the Christmas cards too! LoL I just love your crafternoons! ❤

Gina, FYI, you mentioned cleaning your stamps with a toothbrush and Dawn dish soap. I just wanted to share with you that my dermatologist forbids me to use Dawn as "it's too drying, cuts the grease and body oils too well." Recommends Palmolive. (Even Madge recommends- old commercial) A tip to those with psoriasis or eczema. So over time I imagine it'd be too drying to use on the acrylic, polymer and photopolymer stamps. I would recommend the "grease cutter" to clean the stamps if they're losing their clinginess/sticking ability. (Don't forget to keep them out of UV/sun light.)

Ah, good to have an additional knowledge thanks
