Mixing embossing powder and Dazz Diamonds glitter

Do you know the quantities of embossing powder to mix with Dazzling Diamonds glitter if you want to make colored sparkly powder (similar to Iridescent Ice, but with a colored base)? Ever since I ordered Merry, I decided I wanted to mix glitter with red embossing powder, but am not sure how much of each to use. I was thinking 1 T. of red and 1/2 T. of Dazzling Diamonds glitter. Does anyone know for sure so I don't have to waste a much of product testing this?

Thanks in advance!

yeah, that sounds about what my mixture is, 2 parts of the base color, 1 part of sparkle stuff

I just experimented with this the other night and love the effects. I didn't really measure anything. Stored leftovers in empty embossing powder containers and labeled them with a sharpie.

I'm always learning something new here. I didn't know you could do this. thanks!

you can also mix in Peral X and it creates a shimmer effect really pretty.

This is the card I created. The Santa hat is done with red e.p. mixed with Dazz Diamonds glitter. I did about twice as much red as glitter. I love the effect!
