Rainbow Heat Emboss Letterpress with Watercolours – Altenew Video Hop + Giveaway!

Hello Crafters! How are you? Today I’m sharing a fun rainbow heat emboss letterpress technique using watercolours. There was a lot of experimenting going on in this one! This heat emboss letterpress technique is one of my favourites when I’m using my embossing folders, but I wasn’t sure how it would work with watercolour paints, or whether the coverage of the embossing powder would be good enough on the watercolour paper which has a much more textured surface than the paper that I would usually use for this technique. But it shows that sometimes you just have to try something – I really love how it turned out and how the colours pop against the embossing powder!

The other thing that was really fun was experimenting with the watercolour paints to create the rainbow from the 3 primary colours! It was actually easier than I thought and a great way to stretch your stash!

This card is one I made for an Altenew Educators Youtube hop, so be sure to check the video out, then hop along to be in with a chance of winning some awesome prizes!
