The Papermania Signature Ultimate Heat Tool is a lightweight and durable heat source for embossing, shriinking plastic, remelting adhesives or warming-up craft foam. Featuring dual speed, retractable wire stand, safety shield for nozzle and recessed on/off switch for safety. To use with embossing powders, sprinkle a little powder over a freshly stamped image, while the ink is still wet, and shake off any excess. Hold the Heat Tool a few inches from a section of the stamped image at a 45 degree angle and away from you. Once that sections becomes raised and shiny, quickly move to the next section, and so on, until you achieve the desired effect on the entire image. Note: Do not overheat embossing powder as it may bubble.
