Hello there! The other day I had the chance to play with several different kinds of Dreamweavers Embossing Paste, and I wanted to share with you my comparisons and samples. Up until now I’ve only tried white and clear embossing paste. I’ve always wanted to branch out but never took the time. Well, some of these “new to me” colors are really gorgeous, and I knew you’d love to see them, too.
As you can see, I couldn’t stop. I used several different Simon Says Stamp stencils and went to town. The metallics are divine. The Matte Black & Crackle pastes are so unique and unexpected, but the Pearlescent stole my heart.
I really love how the Glossy Black paste looks on black cardstock. I created this card using the Road Trip stamp set & coordinating dies.
This next card shows how gorgeous the Pearlescent paste looks on the Simon Says Stamp Ivory cardstock using the Extra Large Dots stencil.
This Ivory cardstock is my new favorite. It’s the perfect subtle neutral. I added some loosey goosey silver thread, a vellum die cut using the Clustered Leaves, the Small Hello word die cut as well as some Pretty Pink Posh sequins.
Here’s a little video showing you the Dreamweavers Embossing Pastes in action.
That’s all for today. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Super duper Awesome cards !
Wow! Love that pearlescent too! Gorgeous!
awesome video and cards
very enjoyable video which makes me want to buy some pastes……. the purpose of the video ……… buy so entertaining and very nice cards. thank you.
card “hello” I won its air!
Okay, now I feel like I want to get all these pastes, especially the black glossy one. Thank you for sharing your ideas.
Great video! Love all of the options – will need to invest in some soon!
Wonderful comparison of these pastes. I, too, am especially fond of the Pearlescent. and Glossy black. I’m going to steal…er…try it with the tiny dots on black. That is so cool as is the card you made. Love how you’ve constructed the sentiment.
I have some of that paste that I bought years ago at a Rubber Stamp show in my state. They were using it with brass stencils when they were popular. I’m not sure I have ever even opened them. I will definitely be checking out whether they are still good and giving them a try with my newer stencils. Thanks for the comparison!
Fabulous!
Gorgeous! Thanks so much for sharing (: how did you clean the stencils? Does the paste just wipe off?
Thanks!
Ugh. I HAVE to stop watching your videos, but I can’t! Do you know how long my wish list is?!? And it just keeps getting longer and longer LOL
Laura, I just love your demos! You have such a great way of showing of the products. I love your cards! Can’t wait to see your notice in my in-box every day!
Must give this a try! Thanks for the inspiration!
gorgeous. that pearl is just awesome. Love all the metallics. thanks for the comparison.
Oh, love those pastes! Those giant, pearly polkas are delish!
Thank you for showing their pastes!
Laura, your cards are absolutely stunning. My mind started whir!ing. I really need to use up supplies already in my stash, so instead of going out to purchase colored paste I did some mixing. Several ideas were adding paint or powdered pigment (like perfect pearls) to translucent embossing paste. Yeh, I had great success with both. The paint was a metallic pearl white. They’re both really nice. Please feel free to share if you wish.
So, did your hello card use the ivory card stock or did you use the white Neenah? In the video it looks like it’s the ivory card stock, but then in the still picture it looks like gray card stock mounted on a white base. Beautiful results with the pastes. Thank you for sharing!!
Im in LOVE with that hello card. L O V E love. It’s awesome! and thanks, I just ordered two embossing pastes, because the 6 I have here weren’t enough. 😉
