Illustrated Craft Tutorial - How to Decoupage and Emboss on Metal Sheets

Try this technique to create unique gifts or items for your home.

 

 

Decoupage and Embossing on Metal 1

1. Cut the napkin motif roughly out. Remove all but the top layer (the printed layer). Glue this layer carefully to a sheet of metal and let thoroughly dry before continuing.

2. Now, take your stylus and trace along the outside of the design as well as the inside details. The more details you trace, the more dimensional the project will be.

3. Turn the project over. This is how the backside looks now.

4. Now use your stylus and also any smooth rounded objects you have and “fill in” the areas between the lines you see. This will push these areas the other direction causing the embossing. Do not go over the lines.

5. Turn your project over again and you will see the effect. You can use the small stylus again to draw the detail lines as in step 2 again causing even more dimension. Once you are finished, cut around the outside edge of the design.
