Technique: Gold Leaf Card

October 5, 2014 by Heather Holbrook

Technique: Gold Leaf Card

Wow, this golden leaves card from Lydia Brooke is stunning! To make it she used a glue “ink” pad and stamped her leaves onto clear acetate and then adhered gold leaf flakes over top. This technique would work so well with many different stamped mages, I can see some beautiful Christmas cards made this way, can’t you? Head on over to the Love Lydia Brooke blog and watch her video tutorial.
