You might think it is costly, but invest in a heat gun. I have had mine for
over 8 years and it is still going strong. whatever color of pigment ink you
buy , you can use it to emboss with. No mater what kind of embossing ink you
have whether it is clear, white,black or any other color. If you use the
silver, gold, bronze, copper, brass powders, you will get only these colors.
(metals) So if you want to emboss in the metal colors you only need black
embossing ink and then all these powders. I have never used an iron to do
embossing with. I have heard that some ladies hold the paper over the
toaster to set the ink.

Greetings everyone. Would some of you please give me specifics about
how to Heat Set Crafter's Pigment Ink? I have read ClearSnap's
information and the posts here in this group, however I would like to
know the specific techniques and tools used. I am not embossing,
however I am stamping with the Crafter's Pigment Ink with the
probability of the stamped sheet getting wet, or humid from time to
time. For instance if you use an Clothing Iron, and iron the stamped
sheet by placing another sheet on top ... then please tell me on what
heat setting you have the iron, how long you iron, what kind of paper
you use to iron on, etc. If you use a heat gun please tell me the
specifics ... what kind of heat gun, how close do you hold it, for how
long. Please include advantages, and disadvantages and any other tips
and tricks you are willing to share. Thank you in advance. Andy- Ocultar texto de la cita -
