Illustrated Craft Tutorial - How To Emboss on Metal Embossing Sheets

Follow steps 1 - 8 for the basic metal embossing. Steps 9 - 11 show you how you can continue and add color to your decoration by using window cling paint.

1. Decide on the motif you would like. Lay it onto the metal embossing sheet and tape it a bit to keep it from slipping. Lay a piece of fun foam underneath the two layers for a soft underground.

2. Using your stylus, trace all the lines of your pattern. This will leave an image onto the metal sheet. Once finished, remove the tape and the paper.

5. Turn your sheet now over. This is the backside.

Continue to leave the foam under your project while doing the next steps.

6. Take any smooth rounded object and rub in between the indented lines. This embosses the spaces between the lines the other direction, making the piece dimensional. You may also use smaller objects as well. Make sure not to touch the lines with your object.

7. A crochet hook or a stylus with a larger ball is also helpful for getting into smallest areas of your motif.

8. When the embossing is finished, cut your motif out and turn over to the right side. Use your window paint to now fill in the areas. Again, avoid the lines.

11. When finished, let the piece dry overnight. When wet, it looks milky, but dries clear.
