Fun with Gilding Flakes – How to use them.

Fun with Gilding Flakes – How to use them – Good Morning Magnolia – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I was so excited to see gilded flakes in the new mini catalogue. They are so much to play with. One world of warning is that once out of the pot they won’t go back in, they just seem to mushroom and grow. Consequently they last for ages. I put mine in a tin to keep the mess in.

There are a number of ways to use gilded flakes. In the video below I show you how to use it with heat & stick powder and versamark. You use it though with Tombow and tear & tape. I will show be doing these techniques in later videos so make sure you are subscribed to my YouTube to get alerts.

Magnolia Bookmark Tutorial

I have a bookmark to share with you today that I made using both Magnolia stamps sets from Stampin’ Up! I love this magnolia bookmark as it is involves colouring in which I find therapeutic. Floral stamp sets are some of my favourite ones and I have used these stamps many times already.

I used the blends to colour in this bookmark. The blends are alcohol markers from Stampin’ Up! and they really do blend beautifully. The colouring feels seamless with no lines or blotches. I have never managed very well with alcohol markers from other companies but the blends are a dream.

The Magnolia Blooms and Goodmorning Magnolia are all part of a huge suite of products called Magnolia Lane. The suite includes matching dies, embossing folder, designer series paper (DSP) and lots more.

I have kept the colour palette limited to Petal Pink and Mossy Meadow. This gives an elegant look without risking colours clashing.

GateFold Card – Magnolia Lane

I have a gatefold card to share with you today using the ever lovely Magnolia Lane designer series paper (DSP). Generally speaking, I’m not a fan of fancy folds with lots of frills and trims. I prefer to play with colour and texture. I gave it go and I’m quite pleased with the way it turned out.

I love the Magnolia Lane DSP. Currently, I’m making a paper bag mini album using this paper and have nearly finished my first packet so am off to order more shortly.

measurements

Mossy Meadow cardstock – A5 – (A5 is just an A4 sheet cut in half on the long side) – Score at 5.25cm on each side – I just used my trimmer to score it.
Magnolia Lane DSP – 10cm x 14.35cm
Whisper White cardstock – 10cm x 14.35cm

I’ve used the coordinating stamp set Good Morning Magnolia to stamp some flowers and foliage on the inside of this gatefold card. These stamps lend themselves beautifully to being coloured in with the Stampin Blends. I really enjoyed this part of the card as I adore colouring in.

I’m not sure I will do another gatefold card as I found it difficult to decorate and I don’t feel it’s my style. Do you have a particular style? Let me know in the comments.
