Hi there Creators
I showed this on my facebook page the other day, but I know not everyone is a fan of FB so I'm sharing it here for you too 😊
I've now uploaded the video to YouTube, which I'll include in this blog post, however a quick run down of what's in it.....
So when you first get your Gilded Leafing, you'll need a bigger pot to put it into and a sponge or brush to help wipe off the excess. HOWEVER.... it is soooo worth it!
you can purchase Heat & Stick Powder which means you can turn your stamps into gilded images like this:
you can pretty much use any glue to apply the gilded leafing, the next example I have is using the Tear & Tape Adhesive (ultra easy!)
I did use the Stampin' Seal and glue dots, which look great for a small embellishment!, but haven't got round to making anything up with those samples yet, so then the other way I show in the video is using Tombow, and embossing cardstock through the Stampin' Cut and Emboss Machine, then, you can paint it on with an water painter, if you need to be precise with where it goes, dab it on with a sponge, if you're happy for it to be more random, or glue up a silicone mat, spread the glue out thinly and press the embossed card to the glue (you do have to be careful with this method, as otherwise glue goes everywhere and the gilded leafing in turn sticks everywhere lol)
I think this example was with the water painter!
And so for the video in case you still want to watch it
I hope you are inspired to have a go with the Gilded leafing it really does create such a beautiful effect on your cards!
Hi there Creators, Well today I thought we'd check out something from the new catalogue, which will be live in just a few days (7th Jan). I saw the Mixed Media Florals Memories & More Card Pack in the catalogue and thought they looked lovely, and yes they really are gorgeous! (link prob won't work till 7th) Anyway in the video I show off all the cards in the pack, and mention that I am doing share packs for various things in the new catalogue (Designer Paper, Ephemera Packs, Embellishments, Ribbons and this Memories & More) See more details at the end or send me a message. And here are the cards I made up using the Basic White Assorted Memories & More Cards & Envelopes : This firs one uses one of the larger cards, a couple of stickers, the stamp set "simply said" for the saying and some of the pretty Riverside Irregular Pearls . Then this card is a small one, using the same stamp set "Simply Said" , a sticker and some more of the Riversid...
Hi there Creators I saw this cool star ornament in another video, and had a bit of a play around with it, ending up with this.... (with a retired Designer Series Paper) Then I ended up making this one (somewhat puffier 🤣) in the video with the current Natures Sweetness Specialty Designer Series Paper Ok, to make this you'll need 16 strips of 15cm x 1cm Designer Paper & glue (I used tombow) Use 8 of the pieces for each side of the star, you twist them like a Breast Cancer ribbon, but with a small "head section" and have a gap of around 4cm at the free end, and around 4cm of the 2 free arms (if that makes sense, it should if you've seen the video!) you then glue 8 of the "heads" together to make the middle of the star then the tails glue together to form the points. once you've made up 2 of these, you then glue them back to back, adding a piece of twine into the last point If you missed the video here it is: I hope this inspires you to create one t...
Hi there Creators, The Global Design Project #261 challenge this week is a colour challenge: (check out the link to see what others have done) So I thought I'd join in again, and try out a card type I've seen someone else show off recently I know it would have been on one of the Stampin' Up! facebook pages, I can't remember exactly what she used, but I liked the 3D'ness of it 😄 and I have no idea what the card is called possibly Diorama card would work? anyway I set to work trying to work out how she'd done it (although I suspect if I could re-find hers she'd probably already done instructions lol) I always seem to take the hard way..... So here is my "take" on it using these colours. The inside is the impressive bit..... The outside not so impressive, but check out that gorgeous Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper ! I've teamed it up with the Ornate Layers Dies , and the super soft ribbon from the Basket Weave & Metall...
