Gold Tipped Feather Tutorial

I've received many comments and emails about the gold tipped feather on this card

so I thought I'd share the steps on how you can make them, too.

I was going to do a video but I don't like the sound of my voice,
so hopefully, these photos will do.

 

After die cutting the feather, tap Versamark ink on the tip.

 Generously on the very tip and lightly as you go further down. 

Run the pad along the edge of the feather's tip, too.

Sprinkle on the embossing powder quite heavily.

Using your fingers, sprinkle some powder lightly below the feather's tip.

 

Heat emboss and it's done.

As you can see, no two feathers are exactly alike.

Repeat the process, if you like, which will give a thicker embossing.

Pretty soon you'll be gold embossing everything in sight--it's quite addictive!

Lastly, my thanks to CASology (and Tracey!) for choosing my card
as last week's GOLD winner. All that gold embossing paid off!
