Hi, I'm a beginner to rubber stamping and just tried embossing for the first time yesterday. I followed the steps... ink stamp with pigment ink, stamp paper, cover stamped image with powder, tap off excess, set with heat gun. I used a gold embossing powder and it came out very nice, but I noticed that when I touched the embossed image, a very thin film of powder (?) ended up on my finger.... sort of like how some metallic tissue papers make of mess of your hands. I'm wondering if this is normal or if anyone might know the cause if it's not normal... Thanks, Melissa
