Awesome, I was curious how you did this when looking at your fb.

[@mariakellner2221]

I bought some goldleaf with out the backing i use a piece of acetate to apply it not the real one.

This was super cool to watch! Thanks for sharing!!

[@suzyg7716]

Can you provide the name of the sizing and where you get it? Are all of the LA GOLD leaves stuck to tissue paper or what is it called for ordering? Thank you!

[@StephanieLaw]

It's Kolner Miniatum gold leaf ink sizing. Make sure it's the pink one, not the yellow, or it won't flow through a crow quill pen. And no, they are not all on tissue, you can buy them loose as well.

I apologise for asking but I couldn't hear, what was the raised medium you used?

[@bekthomason4046]

Or is that the ground?
