Embossed Eggs

Supplies

embossing inkpad and powder
embossing heating tool
embossing pen
rubber stamp (with bold lines in design)

Directions

This is a craft for grown-ups only because of the heat tool.

Ink the stamp and then stamp the side of a blown-out egg. Immediately, sprinkle embossing powder over the ink while the ink is still wet (do this over a sheet of paper so you can reuse the powder).

Use a thin artist's brush to gently brush away the excess powder, but be careful not to brush away the powder in the design.

(Read embossing heat tool package instructions.) Use tool to heat powder on egg until the ink becomes raised from the surface and sets. You can use the same technique to write names on eggs or create a free-form design using an embossing pen instead of the inkpad and stamp.
