Hi and welcome to my blog. This is about adding Gilded Leafing Embellishments to your cards. I show several techniques that I have found useful and do not make a huge mess. I understand the the Gilded Leafing Elements will be back in stock this week. These cards were fun to make. Some people have commented that it doesn’t look much different from embossing. I think there is a difference. The gilding is rougher, it has more texture and has more shine. Along with the alcohol blend technique, the gilding makes very different cards. I think, very pretty cards.
Measurements for today’s Cards using Gilded Leafing Embellishment The Card Bases are Whisper White and are cut 8 ½” by 5 ½” Scored at 4 ¼”. I made the alcohol sheets 4 1/4″ by 5 1/2″, so a quarter sheet each. Then I used Versa Mark and Heat and Stick Powder to adhere the gilding.
Good Morning Crafters! More from the Fine Art Floral Suite. This time I used more of the Pretty DSP, I simply fussy cut the roses and leaves. My colors came from those recommended on the paper pack
Following are the measurements for today’s Congratulations Card:
The Card Base is Rococo Rose and is cut 11” by 4 ¼” Scored at 5 ½”, I then cut 2 pieces Night of Navy paper, cut 4” by 5 ¼”. Next I cut 2 pieces of Petal Pink, 3 ¾” by 5“.
Finally I fussy cut flowers from the Fine Art Floral DSP, for the front of the card and 2 small pieces for the inside of the card.

A shift from Whisper White to Basic White Cardstock is in process.
You may have already seen that Stampin’ Up! has switched from Whisper White Cardstock to Basic White. The Whisper White Cardstock supplier’s mill producing the Whisper White cardstock has permanently closed due to impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic.
The following items have been effected:

The replacement product is Basic White. All items will be replaced by the Basic white product. This shift should be seamless. The only difference I have noticed is that the New Basic White may be just a hint brighter.

The Beautiful Day Bridge Card was inspired by a Mystery Card Making event. I am a member of a group of demonstrators here in Denver called Kindred Inkers. Terry Kaspari, their leader invited me to join this lovely, talented group of people. Terry brought this card to the group and I just love the way it turned out.
Here are the measurements for today’s Art Gallery Beautiful Day Bridge Card:
This Card Base is Poppy Parade and is cut 8” by 4 ¼” and scored at 1 ¼”, 2 ½”, 5 ½”, & 6 ¾” .
An additional Piece of Poppy Parade is cut at 1 ¼” by 5 ½” for the bridge piece of the card.
Then there are 2 pieces Whisper White paper, cut 4” by 2 ¾”.
Finally there are 3 pieces of Fine Art Floral DSP, 2 pieces cut at 1” by 4” and1 piece cut at 1” by 5 ¼”.
These Cards were so much fun to make. The layouts here are the most important. While it is fun to figure out how to use up this wonderful free paper. You can use these designs for any small bits of DSP you may have on hand. I think these would make a lovely gift set of cards for anyone.
Here are the measurements for today’s Flower and Field DSP Cards:
You can vary the colored card bases to match the colors in the DSP. All of the bases are cut 8 ½” by 5 ½” , scored and folded at 4 ¼”, or 4 ¼” by 11”, scored and folded at 5 ½”.
I then added 2 pieces Whisper White paper one piece for the inside and one for the card front, and coordinating ribbon.
