Powdered Keg Embossing Powders
By Elizabeth Lee McAndrew
 There
are specific criteria important to meet the consumer’s needs when deciding on a
selection of embossing powders. Beyond the scope of looking pretty, a good
quality embossing powder must contain certain characteristics. This includes
having fine powder free of clumps and the ability to stay attached to the
surface it is applied to once it is melted with a heat tool. In addition, the
ability to easily remove excess powder off a project is a real benefit. Another
bonus is being able to do one stop shopping with a single company that offers a
wide variety of colors and blends. Do stir any embossing powder prior to use to
re-mix the colors for even distribution. The weight of some elements in the
blends tends to settle with any brand.
As an avid user of embossing
powders, I have found that Powder Keg embossing powders meet all the quality
standards necessary to present my art work on a professional level. The fine
powder produces crisp lines wi th
durability, and clumping is virtually non-existent. I can be certain that any
artwork I create with this line of embossing powders will not deteriorate over
time. Since the majority of my projects are art décor items, the longevity
factor of my art pieces is highly important. Also, I have found that the powder
particles whisk away much easier than other brands. This minimizes those pesky,
unwelcome specks of embossing powder! Usually, I am taking great pains to remove
surplus specks with other brands. The selection of colors and blends to choose
from in the Powdered Keg line is superior and offers everything a crafter needs.
The line is continually expanding and now boasts over 50 luscious colors and
blends. A consumer can even experiment with the colors offered and create more
possibilities. Simply combine existing colors and see what materializes!
