Hope you're all well and have a lovely day planned
I'm on the Bee Crafty blog today and I decided to try something new. I bought some natural Slate coasters and had a go at stamping on them. Have to say once I got the hang of it I was on a roll...and will be doing more no doubt lol
I used:
Large Butterfly
Large Sunflower
Maple Hand Drawn leaf
Versmark
Embossing Powders
Metallic Markers (from my crafty stash )
Varnish
When stamping/heat embossing on these you MUST use a GLASS MAT as it will get very HOT
Do NOT touch the slate coaster during and after heat embossing as it gets extremely HOT. It takes a long time for the slate to cool down
Anti Static the coaster before stamping your image in Versmark. Press and hold down firmly for a minute or so to allow the Versmark to soak into the slate properly
Apply embossing powder
Heat. (Please note it takes a long time for the embossing powder to melt!!! )
Once dry and the slate has cooled right down then you can colour in your images.
I used metallic Markers from my crafty stash
Once dry I applied several coats of Varnish
I hope you liked today's makes..I enjoyed making them
I'll be back soon with another Bee Crafty make
Crafty hugs xx
