I'll try to describe the technique I think you're referring to.
Cut a piece of cardstock big enough for the image you're using. Cover it with versamark or other embossing pad. Then pour embossing powder (EP) over, dump off, and heat emboss as usual. When still hot pour more EP over, pour off excess, and heat. Repeat again. Usually use about 3 coats of EP. After the last layer is melted, press your stamp in and it will leave the impression behind.
