Ranger's NEW Embossing Powders

I have to say I am beyond humbled....
I opened my Instagram page the other day and noticed a message.
So, I popped over to see what it was about....
and there was a message from Kelly from Ranger Ink. WHAT!?!?!

YOU SEE....
Ranger Ink has released NEW Speckle Embossing Powders! and they asked if I'd be interested in playing with their new product.
NOW...that was a silly question! OF COURSE!
So, I PATIENTLY waited for my box to arrive....
When my box arrived, I headed right for my studio to try them out.

I wanted to see how the product worked and
what it looked like when finished.
I tried several different ways to apply the Speckle Embossing Powder which is
a blend of color and textured granules.
  • Pouring onto paper with stamped image.
         I found that the color covered the embossing ink making it a bit difficult       for the speckles to adhere.
  • Scooping out Embossing Powder with my palette knife and sprinkling onto stamped image.
         This way worked better but I was still getting toooo much color and not        enough speckle.
  • Lastly, using very small quantities of the Speckled Embossing Powder, specifically placed. 
         By far my FAVORITE way. It Allowed the "speckles" to adhere better.

I then pulled out more ArtFoamies Stamps

Layer upon Layer of FABULOUS color.

I then pulled out one of my UmWowStudio ~ Small Ivy.
Now, I need a green color so I thought I'd try mixing
BlueBerry and Lemon Drop

I used Ranger ~ Emboss It Dabber ~ Clear
on the chippie and covered it with my mixture.
I have to say....I LOVE how it came out.
