Have you ever tried Heat Embossing with Stencils…. how about Layered Heat Embossing? Today I have 2 different examples to inspire you to try this FUN technique!
But before we start did you know that this video is part of my Take 2 With Therese series of videos that I create for Altenew? You can check out the full playlist right HERE for more inspiration.
For these projects I used the Meadow Bush Layering Stencil and some of the beautiful Altenew Embossing Powders.
I chose to use an emboss resist technique to add a blended background which changed the whole look of the design.
Then I added a Gilded glittery Waterbrush Hello Die cut.
For my second design I kept it very clean and simple. I mixed blending and embossing to create my flowers.
This time I added a sentiment from the Floral Frame set.
As well as some Satin White Sequins to finish the look.
You can see my video here or Watch it in HD at YouTube.
I hope you are inspired to try some layered heat embossing with stencils! If you do, I’d love to see it so please tag me on social media! Thanks so much for stopping by today, hugs,

I have seen this technique, Therese – but your results are the prettiest so far! Off to watch!
=]
I know you would have fun with this technique too Michele!
Haven’t seen this technique before Therese, so I’m off to watch how it’s done. Beautiful cards â¤ï¸â¤ï¸
It’s a fun one and another great way to use my stencils too, love stretching my suppplies!
Dear Therese
Such a great technique and I love the cards.
Can’t wait to catch the video.
Cheers
Lisa
Thanks so much Lisa, the first one was a little out of my comfort zone but fun to do!
Wonderful video, i love the technique. I have never done this before so I can’t wait to get to it!
It’s a great way to use your stencils, hope you have fun!
Beautiful!
Thanks so very much Pam!
I wasn’t too sure about the layered heat embossing until you added the background. Wow, it really made those flowers pop! Love both of the cards
I agree, the background really added some WoW to the first card!
These are both so beautiful. The dimension and background blending are brilliant additions.
Thanks so very much Christine!
What a stunning way to add texture and shine. So lovely.
Thanks so much Lisa!
Love the 2 very different looks you achieved Therese! So pretty and both super eye-catching. Must give it a try! 🙂
Hope you have fun with it Helen!
Absolutely GORGEOUS cards, Therese! Thanks so much for inspiring me to heat emboss with my stencils ~ xx
I know you will have fun with it Barb!
LOVE the Cloudy Sky/Nimbus background! Very striking and compliments the flowers wonderfully.
I will have to try layered embossing again….but I’m just so messy. I always end up spilling it all over my desk, my clothes, my floor, my cats…..poor things! Any tips on how to get embossing powder and glitter out of a cat’s coat?? 🙂
hahaha I don’t ever think I’ve added embossing powder / glitter to my cats before…. sounds like an interesting problem to solve lol. At least they will sparkle!
Love this technique and Wow those flowers are so pretty, especially with the darker background. Love to learn something new and exciting! I have to say your video style is great; humor, tips, relaxed style coupled with a clear, concise explanation is a winner. Moreover, I especially appreciate you always showing technique warts and all. When you include any mishaps and how to turn it into perfection, makes me feel I can do that too!
You are so very sweet, thank you Mary. You have made my day!
So stunning! Thanks for the inspiration! I hope you’re staying safe. Hugs x
So so pretty! Must try this when my card making mojo reappears! 🙂
What a cool video. I am ordering the meadow bush set and found your cool cool video. I am going to break out my embossing powders when I get my dies and stencils.

How wonderful Gail! Hope you have fun creating!
