Faux Tile Look

I recently tried a technique that gives a faux tile look to a stamped and water colored image. First I stamped a design with Staz-on ink. Next, I filled in the design with watercolors. After that, I ran a clear embossing inkpad over the entire image and sprinkled ultra thick embossing powder over the image. I melted the powder with the heat gun. I repeated the inking, embossing powder and heat gun process two more times. The image does look glossy like a tile, but I think that probably two thicknesses of the embossing powder would have been enough especially since I was using the ultra thick embossing powder.

Happy crafting!
