Five Ways to Use Gilding Flakes

In this video you will learn how to add gilding flakes to your project using different techniques, such as stamping, heat-embossing and using basic glues. You can add them to images, die-cut words, direct to your card front and many other places using the methods shown.

Kari will show you how to highlight areas of a stamp using gilding flake using heat-embossing and a Nuvo glue pen! The embossing helps to resist the areas you don't want flake to settle in - just like ink. Kari then shows you how to emboss using sticky ink to use the flake as the outline of your stamp for an ornate topper. Learn how to create half-gilded sentiments and so much more!

Have a look through your stash to grab the flake and tools you need to create some wonderful cards with pretty gilded features.
