Scentsational Cards

Ladies, this is another one where you will think that I have flipped my lid. I promise it works and the end results can be quite 'scent'- sational and fun. Give it a shot ... what do you have to lose except a little time and a little bit of supplies.


Basic Supplies List

VersaMark Embossing Pad (or other embossing pad)
Ultra Thick Embossing Enamel (UTEE)
Stiff Patterned Paper
Heat Gun
Coffee Grinds, Unused of course!
Image


Step One

Make a tag out of patterned paper that is slightly larger than your embossing pad. Press embossing pad against tag and wiggle it around to make an imprefect rectangle.

Image

Step Two

Take 50/50 mixture of UTEE and dry coffee grounds and mix in a bag. Insert tag and do the mixture to cover embossing ink.

Image

Step Three

Apply heat to melt the mixture. Here I used my coffee pot's warming pad. I used this because I didn't want a heat gun to bow mixture off of the tag. If you do not wish to use your coffee pot in this fashion, apply heat gun from the UNDERSIDE of tag.

Image

The embossed tag is finished.

Here is the card that I taught at my LSS using this technique.

Have fun and make some cards!!!
