Default Heat Embossing on Photo Paper

Does this work? Has anyone tried this? I hate to waste my photo paper if it isn't going to give me the results I want. Thanks!

I just tried it earlier, here is the link to the card. Pixie Magic I brayered the blue background, stamped in silver ink, and embossed in silver as well. Looks great IRL.

Seemed to work just fine. The only thing I noticed is that I had to keep moving the heat gun, and keep it a bit further away from the paper than normal. First one, while it looks fine, I noticed some 'smoke' from the paper, but did not see any browning. I am thinking it is what ever chemicle they coat the paper with to set the inks when you print. Didnt smell anything tho.

HTH!
