I just love your informative and instructive style. You not only demo, you also give advice on how to care for your tools and supplies. I had no idea what or how these mediums could be used. Until, that is, I watched this video! I need these flakes for my crafting, cardmaking and multi media painting
I got the scissors free with a promotion you ran when buying the gilding flakes and I don't know how I crafted without them! I'm happy you uploaded this video because I was hesitant about using them!
Thank you so much! I saw your video after I purchased gilding flakes and glue and watching several tutorial videos . I was having all these problems with them that nobody else addressed. In this video, you cleared several things up for me. Your ideas are wonderful too. Very classy and elegant. Thankk you so much!
I always love watching you preview the new monthly stamps sets. The holidays are so much fun, and these designers really made beautiful cards! Thanks for the inspiration!
Very cool techniques Donna!! I shied away from the flakes but I may need to get some to try some of these techniques. Thanks for sharing all of your techniques with us. Have a safe and Happy New Year
What great ideas! I bought some of the gilding flakes at one of the shows and forgot how to use it. Now I know. I really like the one you showed with the embossed folder. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Donna! Missed you at the Grapevine convention but loved to see Margaret! Thanks for the beautiful techniques , defiinitely very useful to use with my new nuvo glue pens. Your Dallas hockey friend ;)
Instead of glue use a waterbased sizing made for gilding. It will work great. Another idea I want to try is using a foam roller and lightly roll over the stamp.
Thanks for sharing. I always wanted to know how to use this product. Simply beautiful! I'm a big fan of your glitters and embossing powders. Hope to see you at the next expo that comes my way. Have a blessed 2017!
loved the tips and demos, DD! (and your happy smile) wishing you and yours a Merry Christmas. I hope that 2017 is especially good to you, and that the promise of new beginnings creates wonderful journeys! hugs, de
Hi, thanks for the video. If i use the gilding flakes to cover jewelry and then paint glue over the top to hold them in place, will the flakes turn green? That happened to me when I didn't use real gold flake.
Sheila Brown. I don't have any but I'm sure you could. Just note they are NoT as durable as a rubber stamp. So maybe try it out a few times on the one that isn't your favorite. Make sure you clean the glue off right away. Enjoy😘
Would you be able to reuse the excess flakes after you brush them off of the glue? Or do they need to be tossed? Thanks so much for this wonderful, helpful video.
Hello! Is it possible to use a flat brush to brush away the flakes? I see yours is rounded, but I saw that Heidi Swapp sells a glitter brush. Would it matter if the brush is flat or rounded at the top? Thank you!
Vicki Pitts 2 things could be happening. You could either have dried glue on your stamp from the time before that needs to be cleaned off first or you need to put more glue on your stamp and make sure you stamp it quickly while the glue is still wet. Hope that helps. Good luck 🍀
Your gilding flakes projects are fabulous (and your nails are GORGEOUS!).
Thanks for showing me more tips to using my gilding flakes, again!
Thank you for showing us how to use the flakes, I love it.

Thank you .
Great video. Can you use the glue on photopolymer stamps?
Sheila Brown. I don't have any but I'm sure you could. Just note they are NoT as durable as a rubber stamp. So maybe try it out a few times on the one that isn't your favorite. Make sure you clean the glue off right away. Enjoy😘
What kind of tape was that you are using? I'd like to get some! Thank you
I updated the description with active links. Let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks
WOW... BEAUTIFUL
I know this is old but wondered if the gilding flakes are suitable for use on candles?
Did you try it? I would love to hear if it worked
Do you know if I can use any white craft glue? Thanks.
Where do you find the nuvo folding flakes and mouse?thanks
Try tonic studios. I updated the links in the description.
@thedemodonna thanks but I asked this 3 years ago and I did buy this they a different venue.thanks though.i love these.
Would you be able to reuse the excess flakes after you brush them off of the glue? Or do they need to be tossed? Thanks so much for this wonderful, helpful video.
Amy Ismail I save them all 👍. If you'd ask my husband he'd tell you I've never thrown anything away 😂
I want to add gold leaf to fabric, what should I do?
Love this ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you!
Marie Alkire So happy to hear you enjoyed this! Thanks for watching 😘
Can you use the pad for embossing, or do you have to use that pen?
vraiment magnifique
Hello! Is it possible to use a flat brush to brush away the flakes? I see yours is rounded, but I saw that Heidi Swapp sells a glitter brush. Would it matter if the brush is flat or rounded at the top? Thank you!
I always say try what you have first.
How would you use this on clear acrylic
On double sided tape? Did you try it?
Hi!
Gorgeous!!
My question is, can you tell me what machine makes the embossed papers? I’m in love!
What is the tape you are using - not much found on Terrific Tape?
Aloha, where can I purchase the brushes. Thanks
Gorgeegeewhiz! Love these super fun techniques, thanks!

Help every time I use nuvo glue pen to stamp it glues the stamp to my paper. What am I doing wrong?
Vicki Pitts 2 things could be happening. You could either have dried glue on your stamp from the time before that needs to be cleaned off first or you need to put more glue on your stamp and make sure you stamp it quickly while the glue is still wet. Hope that helps. Good luck 🍀
well done
What dollar store sells gilding flakes? Please let me know so I can go shop at that store. Seriouly, where is it?
Thank you I would also like to to see your nails please
Can you make a list of materials please
I've updated the links in the description if you're still looking for products
It wasn't clear on the kind of tape you used, please comment on the type of tape used. Thank you in advance
