How does embossing powder work? What paper is most recommended to be used with it? Ive been trying to use embossing powder for lettering, I want to know what paper works best for this and what kind of procedure to follow for this.
The kind of embossing powder that I'm familiar with, is melted with a heat gun. After being melted, it gets smooth and creates an embossed layer above the paper.

I think any kind of strong durable paper that can tolerate heat as well as a little weight, e.g. card stock, could work well.
