Cosmic Shimmer Mixed Media Embossing Powder is designed to create more variation than standard fine embossing powders. The blend includes mixed particle sizes plus metallic flakes, producing a textured, mottled finish that adds depth and character.

Jurassic suits grunge, industrial and nature-inspired styles, as well as neutral textured backgrounds. Use it like regular heat embossing: stamp with embossing ink, sprinkle the powder, tap off excess and heat-set until melted. Once melted, it forms a durable raised surface that takes inking and patina effects beautifully.

👉 Features:

  • Mixed media heat embossing powder
  • Jurassic shade
  • Mix of fine + larger particles for strong texture
  • Includes metallic flakes for finish variation
  • Durable raised surface
  • Suitable for porous surfaces such as paper, cardstock and wood
  • Content 20ml

👍 Ideal for:

  • textured backgrounds and borders
  • tags, art journaling and mixed media layers
  • large stamps, stencils and patterns
  • grunge and industrial looks

Inspiration Tip:
Emboss a background, let it cool, then add light edge inking to enhance the texture while keeping the finish naturally varied.

✨ What is Embossing?

Heat embossing is a technique that creates a raised finish (glossy, pearly, metallic, glittery or textured) on paper and other porous surfaces.

You stamp or write with embossing ink, sprinkle embossing powder, then heat it with a craft heat gun. The powder melts into one smooth raised layer that “sets” the design.

🧩 Mini Glossary

  • Embossing ink: a sticky / slow-drying ink (often clear) that holds the powder in place.
  • Anti-static tool: a pouch/pad you swipe over cardstock before embossing to reduce static and prevent stray powder.
  • Resist technique: embossed areas “resist” ink. Emboss (often with clear powder) and then ink blend over the top.
  • Puff powder: embossing powder that puffs up when heated, creating a soft 3D texture.

🎯 Which powder should you choose?

  • Clear: keeps the ink colour visible underneath and is great for resist.
  • Opaque: solid, strong colour—great on dark cardstock.
  • Metallic: gold/silver/copper with a classic metallic shine.
  • Pearl / Pearlescent: soft, elegant pearly finish.
  • Glitter / Sparkle: bold sparkle that really shows, especially on dark bases.
  • Ultra Fine / Super Fine: best for tiny text and fine detail.
  • Enamel / Mixed Media / Chunky: strong texture and a more rugged finish—great for backgrounds.
  • Puff: fluffy 3D raised effects (snow, frosting, foam).

🔥 How to Heat Emboss (Step-by-step)

  1. Prep the cardstock with an anti-static tool.
  2. Stamp with embossing ink.
  3. Add powder: sprinkle, tap off the excess.
  4. Heat set with a craft heat gun until it melts smoothly.

👉 Can I use a hair dryer?
No. A hair dryer blows air and will scatter the powder. A craft heat gun heats without strong airflow.

🛠️ Common mistakes & fixes

1) Stray powder everywhere
✅ Use an anti-static tool first. Tap well. Use a small brush before heating.

2) Dull finish
✅ Heat a bit longer until it turns smooth and glossy. Keep a steady distance.

3) Scorched paper / yellowed white
✅ You overheated. Stop as soon as it melts. Keep the heat moving.

4) Tiny text looks messy
✅ Use super/ultra fine powder + anti-static prep + firm, steady stamping.
