Step by step

1. 

   Line up the first lamination stamp by matching the lips on the stamp to the lips on the embossed lady image.

   ▶ watch this step (57:00)
2. 

   Apply sticky ink to the lamination stamp, ensuring all the detail is well covered. The stamp features a floral design that will be used to create the laminated elements.

   ▶ watch this step (57:30)
3. Apply the dark fuchsia embossing powder (Bibbidi Bobbidi Boo) over the stamped image on the black lamination sheet, ensuring complete coverage of the inked areas. ▶ watch 58:00
4. 

   Heat set the embossing powder quickly with a hot heat gun, being careful not to melt the gold embossing underneath.

   ▶ watch this step (58:15)
5. 

   Re-ink the stamped image on the card with the sticky embossing pad. Apply the lighter pink embossing powder from the WOW Powder Trio over the sticky area to create the second lamination layer.

   ▶ watch this step (59:00)
6. 

   Heat set the lighter embossing powder using your heat tool, working quickly to preserve the gold layer beneath. Move the heat tool evenly over the powder until it melts and sets.

   ▶ watch this step (1:00:00)

   Once the embossing powder has cooled completely, gently brush away any remaining anti-static powder from the black card to reveal the finished white embossed flower design.

Tips from the show

• Line up the lamination stamps using the lips as your guide - this ensures the flower petals align correctly.
• Work very quickly when heat setting over previously embossed layers to avoid melting the gold underneath.
• Lamination is not perfect and will have a watercolour finish, so slight overlapping of colours is part of the design.
