It helps to decant the gilding flakes into another container, deep and wide enough so that you can cover the item without the flakes going everywhere. Even a ziplock bag, or something similar works too. Placing a large piece of paper underneath when working, so that you can clean up more easily, lift the paper and tip the loose flakes back in the box x
Great video! Your moderation was perfect, no background noise, helpful techniques, and links for everything. Wish there were more like you on UA-cam. Thank you for sharing.
She did a very good job of explaining and gave me info to new products. Don't know why anyone would give her a down thumb. Maybe jealous of how good she does
You make me want to go around my home, with a wand, and point at items and say, “You’re guilded.” Thank you for sharing your easy to follow instructions. Gorgeous results!
thank you for your ideas, it really helped me. And yes, I was the one with the fan on while opening my nuvo gold gilding that started to fly everywhere. The good news is where it landed made that area really pretty. The bad news is where is landed made it challenging to clean up! LOL Lessons learned!
This tutorial is amazing to me. I have been trying to get these types of flakes to work for me for years now, and I generally get glue everywhere and gilding more on me and my surfaces rather than on my project. These have been in my purge pile b/c they were frustrating to me. I will give these ideas a try. Maybe the glue pen will be the trick! I also love your cleaning tips of the adhesive eraser or the blending brush. Water? Magic! The stick EP people have kept this secret WAY too long!
Thank you for this video! Because of you, I don't have to make an extra trip to Michael's! I have water, I have sticky embossing powder, I have the flakes and even that brush! I just wanted to add some gilding as part of my backdrop in just a few places. This is perfect! Thank you so much! ❤
Hi there! Great techniques, thanks so much! Your enthusiasm is infectious and I had so much fun listening to you get so excited that it was truly inspiring. Now... you’ve gotta try the many OTHER colors of leafing. I bought some on Amazon ( pinks, blues, lavender etc) and thought I’d lose my mind, I had so much fun! I started gilding EVERYTHING, rocks, Sculpy clay, old costume jewelry. (This vid is a year old so you may have already discovered them) I hope you’re still having fun and discovering new things to gild! Thanks again!😊xo
I can’t afford a hot foil or die cut machine. I learned I can use die cuts with a rolling pin, but couldn’t find one video showing foil without a machine. This is amazing!! Glue, tacky tape and foil! Amazing!
Thank you for your video. My cards using flakes never seem come out right, but I appreciate your instruction on how to use them. Definitely going to give your techniques a try.
I have had a jar of gilding flakes sitting in my draw for a year, now to go shopping for a glue pen and sticky embossing powder. Awesome video, thank you for sharing your favourite techniques. Newly subscribed.
Very interesting video!! I have all this stuff, but wasn’t sure how to use it. Watching this video gives me some courage to jump in and try it! Thank you!
Wow Great work!!! If I used golden flake on decoupage projects, how do u think I can seal it, I do not want it to scrab or peel? as I know it will affected by the time and myabe golden color will fade or oxidized!!!
Hi Thanks for the great tips and ideas on how to use gilding flakes. The finished card is just gorgeous. I haven't seen the water technique either so will try that one too.
Wow! Fantastic tips and tricks, you really are clever and your cards are fabulous, thank you! Was never really sure quite how to use the sticky embossing powder but now I do! 👍⭐️🏆
Thank you for this video, I am so new to gilding flakes and a little scared to experiment but I am super excited too to try different textures for my junk journal pages. Amazing tutorial!
New subbie today 9.6.20...great video on gilding flakes. I didn't think I ever needed them. I've been wrong before, lol...gotta get'em...hugs from Arizona...:)
Excellent tutorial....my building flakes are a year old....I dint know how to use them properly. I do now thanks to you plus some excellent ideas. Thank you...
Thank you! This has given me an idea: I do suminagshi as well as nail polish marbling. With the sticky glue pen get full sheets of gilding and score tape, I will be able to add a more complete look to the work. A glue pen drawing lines to highlight certain areas would look spectacular! You can get full sheets of leaf paper in gold, rose gold and silver. It’s called shappy in 5.5 x 5.5 inches. Also known as uwazumi. Try Blick as a starting point to find. Good luck!
It’s gorgeous and I’ve never tried it. It’s stunning. It looks so difficult! I’m a little afraid!!! The results are really beautiful bb thank you for all the information. Denise

Thanks for these fab ideas.....loved them. For those of you watching in the UK .....I use flitter glue by indigoBlu to stick my gilding flakes, works the same, dries sticky, just don’t apply to much🙋🏽👍🏽

Your laugh is what I enjoyed the most, but the video was pretty awesome too
One of the best videos I've seen on ANYTHING. Thank you!
Kari, thanks for sharing these techniques. Brushing on water before heat embossing was a new one to me. Brilliant idea!

Are there more colors? Are there all by Nuvo? I need to check that out! :)
I didn't know they came in colors...wow I'm hooked.
I can’t afford a hot foil or die cut machine. I learned I can use die cuts with a rolling pin, but couldn’t find one video showing foil without a machine. This is amazing!! Glue, tacky tape and foil! Amazing!
Most helpful of all the videos I've watched today for Some upcoming orojects. Glad to see someone saving the excess od gilding and re
*Reuse.
I love this sooooo much I think the brush technique is my favorite, although I like using my bare hands in mixed media crafting the most
Definitely did not know embossing powder sticks to water! Wow! Opens up a whole new world. Thank you for these great tips.
I really enjoyed your video on this technique! Great info and so enjoyable watching your tutorials! Thank you❤
