Default Coffee Embossing

I just tried this today with coffee. I used one part coffe to one part ultra thick embossing powder. It seemed to work fine for me. I keep smelling my card.

Hope this helps.

Paper Crafts (November) doesn't note quantities ~ sorry.
From the picture it looks to be less than 2:1 for the fine granule EP & Kool Aid.
I haven't tried it yet, but I think my desired look would be as glossy as possible?!

I can't say for sure how much of each I used but I tried this technique with kool-aid, hot cocoa, and jello mixes and regular EP. The best smelling by far was the jello. It is a bit grainy but over time the smell has come back the strongest when scratched lightly.

When I've done scratch -n- sniff cards, I used 1 packet of kool-aid to 1 Tablespoon clear embossing powder. It worked great. My favorite scent was the grape!

Sure hope everyone's using the unsweetened kind that comes in the packets, and not the sugary stuff that comes in a canister!
