Sprinkle several colors for a marbled effect. PearLustre™ Embossing Powder – uniquely bonded colors give an opalescence effect when melted. Layer PearLustre™ powder over Deep Impression™ powder. Tinsel Embossing Powder – add a touch of sparkle/glitter to the embossed images. Tinsel powders have glitter mixed into the embossing powders.
