Heat Embossing and How to Make a Tear Ruler
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 окт 2024
- I pray that you will all enjoy heat embossing and making and using your tear ruler as much as I do. Playing with our supplies is so much fun.
Joanne at Journaling Adventures has never done any heat embossing so I can’t wait to see her video when she does her projects.
Cindy responded to my question about wanting to know how to make a tear ruler. I hope that she will make one and share her results.
Please post pictures to our Facebook Group and my Instagram.

Thank you so much for all your love and support.
Blessings and Hugs 🤗

You talked about making a tear ruler a couple of times and I kept trying to figure out how on earth you were going to do it. Brilliant!
Thank you. I wish I could credit for it but I can't. I saw someone else do it. Sadly I can't remember who. It saves allot of money. Your channel is growing quickly. You are awesome!
Thank you! You’re doing great, too! 💕
My husband made me a ruler about 6 months ago, but it wasnt jaggety enough for me, now I know how to fix it. 💜
Thank you for sharing this tutorial. I am just getting into embossing and this was very helpful.
Yes I did enjoy this. I love both embossing and tear rulers. I will definitely make some new tear rulers because each one will have a different design. I think it's quicker and easier to tear with a ruler than by hand. TFS XOXO
Absolutely!!! I completely agree about tearing quicker with a ruler and I love the look. Blessings and Hugs 🤗
Thank you so much for Teaching me this I really do appreciate it God bless and please have a amazing day
Thank you for joining me. Prayers for y’all! God bless you as well!
I absolutely love watching your tutorial 😊👍 wish you a nice weekend
Hi Susie I absolutely love watching your tutorials and love watching you craft hugs 🤗
Thank you so much Gina. That means so much to me.
Thank you so much, I enjoyed learning both techniques. I love how the silver looks, even when it is over melted. I am new to all of this. Rachel (Lerê) sent me your way. Thanks for sharing. Have a wonderful day.🦩🐬🤗
Thank you so much for joining me. Your support means more than you know.
😂 The promised episode I never filmed. I love extra tips too👍
*Holy cow..... Look at you doing it again. AMAZING ruler ripper LOOOOOVE THAT!!! Thank you again as always.... 🤗🤗🤗*
Thank you for always watching and being supportive. Lots of love and hugs coming your way.
@@susiescraftroomandstudio *Definitely.... Gotta keep learning Susie's secrets/, knowledge she has for us. Going back to bed a sleeping the day away today. 🤗🤗🤗*
Hey, I never thought of making my own tear ruler! Good idea Susie!
Thanks Donna!!! Blessings and Hugs 🤗
*YAY..... I found my heat embossing gun & can use it for my paintings too. 🤗🤗🤗*
You will have to practice not boiling/scorching the paint.
Great video Susie, you’re right about tear rulers and not using them. I wish I had seen how to do this before I bought mine, cos I rarely use it and they are expensive. Big hugs ❤️ and stay safe, Dee xx
Thanks Dee. I really like them because inking the edges looks great but it can become cumbersome if you are tearing and inking all the pages of a journal. I think we forget about using them on ephemera because when they are out of site, they are out of mind. We have so many techniques as well so that also makes me forget about using them. I try to encourage everyone not to spend the big money on things they may not use. Some of the mega channels show using things once or twice on a small scale and people think things are a must have. Blessings and Hugs 🤗
Informative video and helpful for beginners for sure! TFS the inspiration, Susie!
Thank you so much.
That's delicious! Lol... great idea on making a tear ruler.
Thank you so much. You know how much your support means to me.
Did you hear me yelling no Susie no no don't use your heat gun over your cutting mat. LOL I ruined one of my cutting mats when I first started. Had a ton of warps and mountains all over it from embossing now I don't get my embossing gun anywhere near my mats. You always have the neatest tips and tricks. Can't wait to try making a tear ruler although I have one I always just want to try stuff I see. 😁
I need to start using my tear rulers
The results are really nice when they are inked. It is kinda a pain to ink all your pages but it is GORGEOUS in the end. Blessings and Hugs 🤗
@@susiescraftroomandstudio yes, I didn’t know inking made it look that much better after you tear it
Susie, thanks for video. Some FYIs for those who are looking to try more heat embossing. They make an embossing buddy or a brush one that you wipe over the surface before embossing because the oils in your fingers leave marks on paper and the powder sticks to it. I imagine you could figure out a DIY for the embossing buddy. Next, all embossing powder isn't equal. If you have a very detailed stamped image or sentiment be sure to buy a detailed embossing powder. Otherwise it sort of globs. Next they do make an embossing pen so you can draw shapes, etc or go down those lines on the little folder card. Finally, if you just want cool abstract splatters dip your fingers in water and splatter it on the paper. Pour on your embossing powder, tap off, then heat emboss. No ink needed.
One thing I learned when my friend was teaching me about embossing is to put your embossing powder in like a Rubbermaid or tupperware container. A long rectangle shaped one that is not real tall. Just dump it in there and put a plastic spoon in there then you can hold your item to be embossed over it and use the spoon to shake over the project then flip your project over and tap it with your fingers and it all goes right back into the Container ....throw the spoon back in and put the lid on. I thought that was genius! One of the best tips I ever got way back then. I only do that with my clear embossing powder though I don't have room for all those containers if I used one for every color. LOL my container is maybe an inch high and 5x8 ish....kinda like you would put lunch meat in....
Great idea. Yeah, I wouldn't have enough containers or space for them for all the colors. Thanks for the inspiration. Blessings and Hugs 🤗
O my days nearly had my eye out LOL They were too brilliant techniques to film Susie. I like that you showed what happens if there is not enough embossing powder on your image. Grate tear ruler too. Seen the one's were they use the metal strip from Bacofoil. I would be feared of cutting my fingers. I do have a tear ruler and do use it.. Love you heaps xxx will share in next video for race to 1000 hun xxx
I try to do anything that people want to know how to do. If I know how to do it, I will. If I don't, i will research it and learn how and find the cheapest way to do it. Thank you for your continual love and support.
Would love to see how to make embossing powder please. 💜
I can do a video on that. ❤
@@susiescraftroomandstudio much obliged mam. Will a hair dryer work instead of a heatgun? 💜
They would be great! Let's chat privately about it.
It does but it is hard to keep the embossing powder from blowing off. If you use a hair dryer get the air coming our hot and heat up the back of the piece. It takes work A better solution may be to set it on your stove burner. I will experiment with it and let you know. My stove is kinda like yours, so I will try that.
Hey Susie, how are you! Very nice video thank you👍🏻😃🤗❤️❤️
I'm good, thank you. How have you been? Thank you for watching and supporting me. Blessings and Hugs 🤗
@@susiescraftroomandstudio thank you too, btw the live with Leré went great!!
@@Ourheartswitharts Thank you so much. She is incredibly smart and talented!
The first time I embossed something I burned my craft mat! It's still got a pink spot on it as a reminder that I did it wrong. LOL
I’m so feeling that. This is like the 3rd time. I usually hold it away from everything so that I don’t do that, but I couldn’t do that on camera.
Tfs the tear ruler I skipped the embossing part I haven’t invested in that yet
I haven't either but it's nice to see what it looks like and how to use it. Sometimes it's fun to see what's out there that might be interesting to try/learn next.
It is very expensive to buy the embossing powder, especially if you want more than one color.
@@susiescraftroomandstudio I'm not there yet. Really enjoying the tools I have now. I have a lot to learn but this is on "the list" of things I want to explore/learn.
Do you think wire cutters would work? Every year ruler I've bought I think is too thick. They don't have the metal ones, that I can find anyway. Thank you for this 😊.
Yes they work. The ones I was using are actually wire cutters. I would LOVE to know your results. Blessings and Hugs 🤗
@@susiescraftroomandstudio thank you Susie. 😊
I want to know how to make embossing powder
Ok. I will do a video on it! Love you!!
Hi Melinda!! Hmmm...you have to google and find out how to do that one.
@@donnadegale-kalloo5926 I will make a video on it. 😁
