I hold the heating tool under the card stock and move it around in a kinda of circular motion. You can then see the embossing powder easier and know when it is melted. The card stock also helps to disperse the heat more evenly this way, and I don't have any powder blowing around by mistake. I also use a pair of tweezers to hold the card stock so I don't burn my fingers. And like Keri said, be sure your VersaMark pad is juicy enough. It might need to be re-inked. HTH
