Comments:
The embossing in the title was done by first tracing my letters onto the blue cardstock. Before cutting them out, I used my Zig Glue Pen and colored in the bottom portion of the letter, then added some dots above. I quickly added some silver embossing powder on top and let it sit for about 10 minutes (the glue was pretty thick). I repeated this with each letter and then I took it over to the stove and heat embossed it. After it cooled, I cut out each letter, and placed them onto my layout. The frame was done the same way. I first made my frame and then simply used my glue pen to trace around the inside of the frame. I added silver embossing powder, took it to the stove and heat embossed it. I then mounted the frame onto my photo with glue dots and then set it with the snowflake eyelets. Do not attach your frame to your photo until you have heat embossed it.
