Faux Polished Metal

SUPPLIES

3–4 matching cardstock die cuts or shapes
glue
(Pioneer)
Perfect Medium
UTEE
(clear)
Perfect Pearls (heirloom gold)

INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1. Layer and glue together the die cut shapes as evenly as possible.

Step 2. Pat Perfect Medium on top of the piece and liberally sprinkle UTEE embossing powder over the top.

Step 3. Heat until the embossing powder begins to melt and continue to heat while sprinkling on more UTEE. Do this process 2-3 times to create depth.

Step 4. Allow the piece to cool, but not to become cold and rub Perfect Pearls into the slightly warm surface. The powder will bond and make a lovely shiny finish that will last. Allow the piece to completely cool before handling.
