- In todays video I show you how to use your gilding flakes with embossing folders when card making. The principles can of course be applied to heat embossing and these are just two ideas.
Products used are linked below where they are still available. But you can of course use any embossing folders in your stash!

This technique is a game changer! I don’t have to rely on gold cardstock for gold embellishments anymore, and these are way more interesting with the variegated colors!
Aw thank you so much ☺️ yes! Great substitute for gold cardstock for embellishments and you get a much more faux metal look. The butterfly with all the small bits in real life looks like matte or sprayed metal and if you use large flakes it does look more polished and variegated! It definitely adds something unique and different to a card. Thank you for watching ☺️
So lovely! I have to make myself get out my gilding flakes and give this a try!! You make it look manageable!😊
Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to leave me a comment ☺️ I'm sure you'll enjoyed trying this technique out! So glad it's given you some inspiration ☺️
Thank you for showing how you used your gilding flakes. Great tips.
Thank you so much for watching ☺️ I hope it inspires you to have a go ☺️
Lovely video showing some awesome techniques. Much appreciated Laura. x
Thank you so much for watching ☺️ I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much for leaving me a comment too ☺️
I had not thought to use foiling flakes and embossing folders together. I will definitely be trying this out. And much as I liked the foiled butterflies, the partial foiling of the embossing with the words was the standout for me. Thanks for sharing your ideas. I look forward to seeing what you do next.
Thank you so much Mel for watching and commenting ☺️ I'm so glad it's given you some inspiration to have a go too!
Wonderful inspiration!! Love your ideas with gilding flakes.

Loved the first card the way the butterfly really was the star of the show. Great technique, thank you
Aww thank you so much 😍 I do love the butterfly too. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment too ☺️
I love that technique, especially when you added the powders. I can imagine it also being very effective with silver gilding flakes and blue/violet powders. Can't wait to give it a go.
Thank you so much for watching ☺️ I'm so glad you liked it! And thank you so much for watching and taking the time to leave me a comment ☺️ I really appreciate it. I definitely agree it would look stunning in silver with blue and purple shimmer powders! 🤩
These are fabulous, especially with the blend of different color flakes. I really like the copper.
