It helps to decant the gilding flakes into another container, deep and wide enough so that you can cover the item without the flakes going everywhere. Even a ziplock bag, or something similar works too. Placing a large piece of paper underneath when working, so that you can clean up more easily, lift the paper and tip the loose flakes back in the box x

[@lizscibek3773]

😅😮😅😅😮

[@carlaallen4499]

thank you for your ideas, it really helped me. And yes, I was the one with the fan on while opening my nuvo gold gilding that started to fly everywhere. The good news is where it landed made that area really pretty. The bad news is where is landed made it challenging to clean up! LOL Lessons learned!

[@lindakf27]

Great video! Your moderation was perfect, no background noise, helpful techniques, and links for everything. Wish there were more like you on KZbin. Thank you for sharing.

[@berylwhiting8396]

Very well explained and subtitles useful too

[@lukki7ster]

Amazing. For years ive seen this in the crafting section and has NO clue why i would want to buy it. Now i do!!! Yipeeeee

[@lindaholt2235]

This tutorial is amazing to me. I have been trying to get these types of flakes to work for me for years now, and I generally get glue everywhere and gilding more on me and my surfaces rather than on my project. These have been in my purge pile b/c they were frustrating to me. I will give these ideas a try. Maybe the glue pen will be the trick! I also love your cleaning tips of the adhesive eraser or the blending brush. Water? Magic! The stick EP people have kept this secret WAY too long!

[@dapoet200]

Wow this was so beautiful and creative. The card came out AMAZING!

[@99snapsnap]

This demo has made my day! So good. I will be making use of my gilding flakes and sticky embossing powder now. I have been neglecting them for lack of inspiration, not any more. Thanks!

[@katiebw22]

Kari, thanks for sharing these techniques. Brushing on water before heat embossing was a new one to me. Brilliant idea!

[@diannebaldwin3667]

Hi Thanks for the great tips and ideas on how to use gilding flakes. The finished card is just gorgeous. I haven't seen the water technique either so will try that one too.

[@rendaowe]

There were so much in that jar, wow. Great Ideas, I’m so glad that you shared this with us, Thank you so much!

She did a very good job of explaining and gave me info to new products. Don't know why anyone would give her a down thumb. Maybe jealous of how good she does

[@judithpalliser3311]

Wow!! It's summer here in New Zealand, so I will save your beautiful project for cooler times. Just stunning.

[@crystaldixon6175]

One of the best videos I've seen on ANYTHING. Thank you!

[@t.s8113]

Thank you for your video. My cards using flakes never seem come out right, but I appreciate your instruction on how to use them. Definitely going to give your techniques a try.

[@violetnewby]

This was really informative in understanding different ways to get the gold leaf flakes to adhere. Great video!!!

[@angelakolter372]

I love this sooooo much I think the brush technique is my favorite, although I like using my bare hands in mixed media crafting the most

[@annettelose7174]

I have had a jar of gilding flakes sitting in my draw for a year, now to go shopping for a glue pen and sticky embossing powder. Awesome video, thank you for sharing your favourite techniques. Newly subscribed.

[@joaniecanzone3370]

Great techniques! I’m excited to try them. Bought some flakes at the last Expo but haven’t tried them out yet.

[@bjsmoker]

Very interesting video!! I have all this stuff, but wasn’t sure how to use it. Watching this video gives me some courage to jump in and try it! Thank you!

[@brooklynnskyy3354]

I’ve always wondered what to do with these flakes. Thanks very useful info 💖 I’m gonna try it.

[@nanspier5681]

Definitely did not know embossing powder sticks to water! Wow! Opens up a whole new world. Thank you for these great tips.

[@annaleda3537]

I learned so much. Thank you for the video. Could you tell me where you got the "roarsome" sentiment? Thanks so much.

[@cjsimplyscraps]

[@darlene2861]

Thank you for sharing these cool techniques!

[@aprildomer422]

Hi there! Great techniques, thanks so much! Your enthusiasm is infectious and I had so much fun listening to you get so excited that it was truly inspiring. Now... you’ve gotta try the many OTHER colors of leafing. I bought some on Amazon ( pinks, blues, lavender etc) and thought I’d lose my mind, I had so much fun! I started gilding EVERYTHING, rocks, Sculpy clay, old costume jewelry. (This vid is a year old so you may have already discovered them) I hope you’re still having fun and discovering new things to gild! Thanks again!😊xo

[@LemonCreationART]

Are there more colors? Are there all by Nuvo? I need to check that out! :)

[@cherylpesutimassie5010]

I didn't know they came in colors...wow I'm hooked.

[@TheLittleminxie]

Loved your video. It has inspired me to dig out my guilding flakes stashed in my draw that I dad forgotten about.

[@racheljolley26352]

Wow! Fantastic tips and tricks, you really are clever and your cards are fabulous, thank you! Was never really sure quite how to use the sticky embossing powder but now I do! 👍⭐️🏆

[@JoanOrloffDK]

Stunning card😍 great tips ❤ thanks for sharing your creativity Hugs

[@lindafieldsstudio]

Thank you for this video! Because of you, I don't have to make an extra trip to Michael's! I have water, I have sticky embossing powder, I have the flakes and even that brush! I just wanted to add some gilding as part of my backdrop in just a few places. This is perfect! Thank you so much! ❤

[@karenandrusick7446]

I really enjoyed your video on this technique! Great info and so enjoyable watching your tutorials! Thank you❤

[@thatladynikki]

I can never get the ranger sticky embossing powder to be sticky even if I only heat a little. This is beautiful! I need that stamp set.

[@craftsNstuffBamma]

Thanks. I bought some a few months ago and really didn't know how to use them. Now, I do.

[@rhondachapman3688]

Thank you for this tutorial. I’ve had gilding flakes for a couple of years now and have never used them, you’ve inspired me to give them a go 💜💜

[@solsticemeows]

Lol. Same.

[@gebswife]

You make me want to go around my home, with a wand, and point at items and say, “You’re guilded.” Thank you for sharing your easy to follow instructions. Gorgeous results!

[@robf2952]

HAHA THATS FUNNY YOU SOUND LIKE MY WIFE.

[@cheryl7476]

Thanks, Ms. Sunshine! I had forgotten that sticky powder will stick to water. Very well done video.

[@denisebecker5950]

It’s gorgeous and I’ve never tried it. It’s stunning. It looks so difficult! I’m a little afraid!!! The results are really beautiful bb thank you for all the information. Denise

[@SweetT601]

Thanks loved this! Was looking for away to use these gilden flakes!

[@emlo3584]

I can’t afford a hot foil or die cut machine. I learned I can use die cuts with a rolling pin, but couldn’t find one video showing foil without a machine. This is amazing!! Glue, tacky tape and foil! Amazing!

Hola ! ✨ Will the gold foil and other tools you use work on poly folders ? Not sure of the exact folder material.

[@Melia_Mer]

Love it!

[@CarolBradshaw]

[@suzanneanderson4631]

Thank you!! I would not have thought of using water to make my project work. I was getting quite frustrated with what glue to use. I'm going to see if this works. I bet it's the answer I needed!! So thank you!! What made you think of water anyway?

[@thecraftingpinay]

Thank you for this video, I am so new to gilding flakes and a little scared to experiment but I am super excited too to try different textures for my junk journal pages. Amazing tutorial!
