3D WOW! Melt-It Embellishments

This is my first time using WOW! Melt-It and I’m excited to explore this 3-dimensional medium more!

WOW! Melt-It is a clear super fine embossing powder extender. Melt-It heats and melts faster than any other embossing powder. Mix it with your favorite embossing powders, glitters, and Changers to create unique 3-dimensional embellishments.

Tools & Supplies For WOW! Melt-Its

There are a few tools and supplies you need to create WOW! Melt-It embellishments.

• WOW! Melt-It powder
• WOW! Dual Speed Heat Tool – or another heat tool
• WOW! Foil Melt-It Case
• Tonic Nuvo Craft Spoon – or another small metal spoon
• Silicone mold
• Craft spatula – heat resistant spatula is advised

Silicone Candy Molds

Silicone molds are fabulous for this WOW! Melt-It technique. I used a silicone candy mold I picked up from Amazon. There are loads of options and I linked a couple below.

My finished WOW! 3D Melt-It card embellishments are about the thickness of the popped up sentiments. So, if you’re planning on using your 3D Melt-It embellishments on your papercraft be mindful of how deep the molds are.

How To Mix WOW! Melt-It

The possibilities are truly endless for the color and texture of your 3D WOW! Melt-It embellishments. Especially with the addition of WOW! Changers. Here are the formulas I used today.

For each mixture 1 scoop = the round scoop on the Tonic Nuvo Craft spoon. That is less than an eighth of a teaspoon.

Melt-It Purple Letters

• 2 scoops Melt-It
• 2 scoops Primary Purple Orchid
• 1 scoop Changers Glisten

Melt-It Green Letters

• 2 scoops Melt-It
• 2 scoops Primary Chartreuse
• 1 scoop Changers Sheen

Melt-It Glitter Hearts

• 6 scoops Melt-It
• 3 scoops Eco-Sparkles Anemone
• 1 scoop Primary Purple Orchid

After examining the results, I felt I could have reduced the amount of colored embossing powder and Eco-Sparkles in these mixtures. The embellishments were pretty dark, especially the hearts. So feel free to play around with your mixtures for desired results.

WOW! Melt-It Tips

This was my first time using WOW! Melt-It, I’ll share some tips from my experience.

• Plastic spatulas can melt. Use a metal or heat resistant spatula.
• Use tweezers or clothespin to hold the foil case, it gets hot.
• Crimp the WOW! Foil Melt-It Case to create a pouring spout.
• Mix well and shake all the powder to the bottom near the pouring spout before melting.
• Continue to apply heat while pouring to keep the mixture flowing.
• If the mixture hardens in the mold before you flatten it with a spatula, apply gentle heat.
• If your embellishments are disfigured, put them back into the Foil Melt-It Case, melt again, and remold.
• Have fun!
