When I heat emboss, I put the heat gun both on top of the design and under the design to help keep the paper from warping. I had heard that going under helps the EP melt better. It's true! I did these ornaments in a dark red EP first, but made a bloober, so did it again in the green. I heated the green from underneath only. See how much smoother the green is that the red... It's cool!
Here is our sketch for the week...

This turned out so pretty Debbie, and thanks so much for the reminder to heat from the back. I would not have imagined that it would make such a difference, thanks for also posting the comparison!
Heating from the back is new to me, I'll have to try it. Your card turned out wonderful!
Gorgeous! The ornaments have so much dimension to them - they look 3D.
