Embossing powders

What is embossing powder?

Embossing powder is a decorative medium that adds raised, glossy, or metallic effects to your craft projects. It is most often used with stamps and ink pads: the powder is sprinkled over wet ink, then heated with a heat tool to melt and harden into a textured finish. This simple technique creates professional-looking results, making embossing powder a favourite in card making, scrapbooking, and mixed media.

Different types of embossing powder

At Vaessen Creative, embossing powder is part of the coloured pigments collection. It comes in many variations, including clear powder for a subtle, glossy effect and coloured powders for vibrant, opaque results. Metallic embossing powders, such as gold, silver, or copper, are perfect for adding a luxurious touch, while glitter embossing powders give a sparkling finish. With fine-grain powders for detailed stamps and thicker powders for bold textures, embossing powder adapts to every style.

Creative hobbies & projects with embossing powder

Embossing powder can be used in many hobbies. In card making, it is ideal for highlighting stamped sentiments, motifs, or borders with a raised effect. In Christmas crafting, metallic embossing powders bring festive shine to cards, gift tags, and ornaments. Another inspiring idea is in wedding crafting, where white or pearl embossing powder creates elegant embossed details on invitations, menus, or keepsakes. With embossing powder, even simple designs become eye-catching.
