For this card, I stamped the image with Flitter Glu by Indigo Blu by patting it onto the stamp with Cut-n-Dry foam, and then gilded it with Crafty Notions gilding flakes. I'm not sure which one it is as it's not in it's original packaging, but it's got a hint of blue and green amongst the gold and copper tones. I have to say that the Flitter Glu is by far the best gilding glue I've ever used and I can highly recommend it.
I then simply matted and layered the card and added a border made from high tack double sided tape which I gilded with the same flakes as the image.
The border punch is my favourite Martha Stewart one and I finished the card with a lace bow and some pearls.

ReplyDeleteHi Wendy, Thanks for the blog award, I've been so busy lately with full time work (and deadlines) and commissions, I have not had time to update my blog. This card you have made is really great, I love the gilding flakes, and you're right I have tried other glues and the flitter glue is the best of all to use, nothing comes close. Photos of this effect never do it justice, it's much better to see in person. A beautiful card Wendy. Michelle xx
