Heat & Stick ???
 
Could someone tell me how this is used? I have a customer that brought it from an old SU demonstrator and she has asked me to demo it...and I haven't got a clue

Any help would be great. Thanks in advance. :D

Stamp your image with either Craft ink or Versamark.
Dust on Heat & Stick (just as you would embossing powder).
Heat only until the powder turns clear.
Dust on Dazzling Diamonds glitter (or other).
Heat set.

The glitter is now exactly where the stamped image is! It's very cool.
I don't have Craft inks, and like colored images, so I stamp with Classic (using a Stamp-a-ma-jig), wash the stamp, stamp with VersaMark, then do the rest of the steps.

Give it a try! :wink:

Last night I used the Heat-n-Stick with the bare trees from the Lovely as a Tree set. I used the Stamp-a-ma-Jig and stamped the image in brown, then stamped it again in the exact same place (hence the Stamp-a-ma-Jig) with Versa Mark. I poured the Heat-n-Stick on the trees image and then took a small watercolor brush and brushed the Heat-n-Stick off the trunks and the occasional branches that I wanted to show through my "fall leaves." Then I heated the image and put metal flakes (a gold, copper, and red mix) on the trees. After a minute or so I took a stipple brush and took off the excess metal flake. It turned out great, if I do say so myself.
