It has been quite awhile since I had done some serious heat embossing on my projects. I don't know why I avoided it for so long, just look at these gorgeous results when I heat embossed the Wild Roses background stamp and created an emboss resist background!!

Cover with Clear Embossing Powder, and heat with Heat Tool. Step Two: Above, the background on the left is simply embossed as noted
