Sunshine in my pocket

Five Ways to Use Gilding Flakes

January 31, 2019 Paper Crafting

Hello again! I’m up on the Hedgehog Hollow blog today (here) to show you my favorite ways to Use Gilding Flakes.

Here’s my card I’m sharing with that Geometric Lion. When I saw him, I just knew he needed a golden mane!

When you are using Gilding Flakes, make sure you don’t have a fan on, OR you don’t sneeze, OR you don’t breathe! LOL….those lightweight little flakes will travel!

Watch my video below or on YouTube:

Here’s a little close up of that lion. I added some Glossy Accents to his nose to make it shine!

These gilding flakes are so fun to use. Have you tried them? All the gold on this card is made with Gilding Flakes! Isn’t it interesting to see the different textures on the background, the letters, and the lion’s mane?

I just cannot wait to try my favorite technique I shared in the video (hint: it’s the last one that involves water…yes! WATER!)

I hope you enjoyed this project today. Be sure to watch the video for more ideas and tricks on gilding flakes! Thanks for stopping by.

I’m taking a card photography class and here are some of my practice shots with my new camera. The background is darker than I’m used to and I have some learning to do still, but what do you think so far?
