The powders and stamps were left over from 4 years back when I had the crazy idea of making 200+ homemade Christmas cards for our clients (never again). It turns out, this is a process that can be very fun for young ones. Grace immediately took to the three step process of stamping with embossing ink, sprinkling on the powder, and then using the heating element to melt the powder and emboss. When Jack woke up, Grace gave the full tour, gently explaining how the process of embossing worked.
After 1 1/2 hours, Grace had built a frame out of strips of paper with embossed art along it (all her idea) and a hand drawn picture in the middle. Jack was a hoot as I could hear him turn on the dryer and shout to Grace after 3 seconds "Is this long enough!?". Their faces were both covered in shimmer when they came to dinner.
