In this technique, it doesn&#8217;t  matter if you melt it into the newsprint, in fact it works better if you  do.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Note #2: Once the embossing powder has completely melted on one side, you canturn the newsprint over and heat from the other side as well, to get the embossing to become even more translucent. Just make  sure&#160; the melted embossing powder on the front side doesn&#8217;t stick to your surface! A non-stick mat like the one from Ranger  will prevent your embossing powder from sticking to the surface if you turn it over and  heat the back side.<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>After the embossing powder has completely melted into the newsprint, use  a dye based ink pad to color the un-embossed portions of the paper.<\/li>\n<li>Glue the embossed newsprint over a colored background to see the color show  thru the embossed areas.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"item_footer\">\n<p><small><a href=\"http:\/\/easyscraps.com\/blog\/blogu.php\/rubber-stamp-embossing-on-newsprint\"> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>See how&#160; cool it looks to emboss on newsprint.
