Does anyone know if this exists? I received a pretty card today from a swap that has "Thanks" spelled out in glitter. It's so perfect, I can only assume it's embossing powder.
I think JudiKins makes glitter EP and there are probably other mfrs too. I like SU's Irridescent Ice EP for its touch of glittery sheen but it is not like "true" glitter embossing powders (imo, of course).
I have gotten quite a few of the Ranger Tinsel embossing powders.
I have to be really careful with it or it will burn. I heat it from the back and that seems to work best. But it never really "melts" like others do, so I have a hard time telling when it's done. LOL!
i have rangers embossing tinsels and a couple embossing glitters in stock. i also have tsukineko's essential glue pad - you can stamp with it and then sprinkle regular glitter on - works great!

How does that work? I bought some, and I thought I'd followed the directions, but the glitter falls off if you touch it. Help
Heat & Stick powder is awesome! You need to use a pigment ink or versamark. Sprinkle your H & S powder. Heat, but just until shiny, don't overheat or it will lose the stickiness. Sprinkle your glitter and tap off excess. Reheat briefly.

Heating only for a second is key. Then, you can dip your finger into the glitter jar and rub gently after the heat-n-stick is heated and sticky. Very little mess or waste. People who have sworn off glitter see it done with heat-n-stick and fall in love with glitz again. Also, you can do a tone on tone for cool backgrounds: for example, pink paper, pink craft pad, pink glitter. Using the same color ink as glitter will cover up any "holidays" in the glitter coverage but Versamark works, too.

You rock! Thanks. I think I'll need to 'play' tonight to make sure it works.
I have the Ranger EP with glitter and I just don't like the way it looks. As another poster said, it just doesn't melt well. I wish I had tried it before I bought multiple colors. Live and learn. I just got the heat & stick powder in an order but haven't tried it yet.
Glitter Embossing Powder?
