Favorite brown embossing powder?

[maslex]

Just wondering what your favorite BROWN embossing powder is? I'm looking for a nice dark brown (it's for a twig wreath).

There is a UK company, also available in the USA, called WOW! Embossing Powder. You will be amazed at all the colours they have available. Link is HERE.
I've linked to a search for Brown EP. The quality is really, really good, and I have bought masses of them, with no complaints.
They have loads of other stuff too, like moulds, Heat transfer Foil, even stamps. And some amazing glittery, sparkly powders too.

For colors I don't use a lot (and for black, because it's difficult to get extremely fine detail with black embossing powder), I use a juicy/sticky ink with clear embossing powder. Or using a stamping platform you can stamp with any ink, then stamp Versamark over it and emboss with clear. That way you can heat emboss virtually any color. These aren't my ideas - it's a very common technique, especially for black.

Versafine inks can be used for embossing (if you move fairly quickly) since they're juicy, and even come in mini cubes. A new Versafine line called Clair which has just hit the U.S. or can be purchased from shops in the U.K. (I used Buddly in the U.K. which cost less, even with shipping, than U.S. shops.) The ink is juicy/sticky enough for embossing and they have several browns. I have Pinecone which is a beautiful dark brown.

Anyway, just a couple alternatives. : )
