Embossing info...

MSDS is an ingredient of embossing powder... It usually is in lazer printer toners. fine plastic can be also another ingredient.

Tip from "Embossed Stamped Images"
eliminate embossing powder sticking to stuff... use baking soda, cornstarch or powder in an little piece of fabric and puff puff the surface with your bundle if you don't want the excess embossing powder on the surface you're going to emboss... :)

Just went around to the bag of pop cans and took all the tabs off... Want to try this tutorial:
Need:
* Clear embossing ink
* Soda pop tabs
* Colored embossing powder
* Heat embossing tool
* A pair of tweezers

1 Coat tabs w/ embossing ink [fronts only]
2 Use tweezers for this: dip tabs in embossing powder.
3 Heat tabs [hold them w/ tweezers] with gun until powder is melted. HOT so careful!
4 Repeat it 2 or 3 times if need be.

The project were the tutorial is, was using them as buckles.
