I used embossing powder on the Maya Road chipboard shapes.
I found I got the best coverage if I pressed the chipboard on the Versafine pad, not the other way around. Press hard to make sure you get the whole thing covered really well.
Then I sprinkled the embossing powder on the shape. I always do that on top of a sheet of paper, that way it is super easy to slide the unused powder back into the container.
When using a heat tool on a smaller shape it is best to point it straight down or else your shape will get blown all over the place! It takes a little trial and error, but easy to get the hang of it.
