Embossing Technique with Metal Dies

By Marina Ignatova 

 

“Hello, dear fans of G45!

 

How often do you use familiar things in a non-trivial way? Today I will show you how to use a cutting dies to make embossing.

 

 

To begin with, I cut down a few elements to create further volume.

 

 

I glued two parts together.

 

Next, I cover the details with soil. Separate base and cut parts.

 

We glue the bases and cut down parts.

 

 

Added textures using a paste with sand.

 

Using a brush, I tinted the surface with waxes of different colors.

 

 

And at the end, I run my finger over the surface of the metal wax in some places.

 

 

You get elements that can be perfectly used in layers of decor. So I got a fancy bright panel. Inspiration to you friends!” ~Marina
