I first made my own Embossing Paste a few years back now and was really pleased with my recipe. There are loads of different methods on YouTube and Pinterest which I have tried but not really been happy with the results.
Embossing pastes are so expensive and you only get a little amount. For $3-4 I can make loads!
Mine is thick and more of a dry texture to touch rather then wet. I keep mine in a air tight container and it lasts a very long time.
The colours you can make are endless as long as you use Acrylic Paint.
Here’ s my recipe…
1 Tablespoon of any colour acrylic paint.
2.1/2 Tablespoons of PVA glue.
Quarter cup of Talcum Powder, I use the ones that are 99% Cornflour.
If your PVA glue is very runny then you may need to increase your Talcum Powder until you get a consistency like mine.
Check out my YouTube video below to watch how I made it.
You can add glitter to these to, just pour it in the more the better, its also great with heat embossing powders.
I would love to hear what you think and if you have any other good recipes that work well for you.
Let me know.
