Gilded heart



I have another card made using gilding flakes.  

I have had this IndigoBlu heart stamp for a few weeks but had not worked out how best to showcase it, then I saw this technique on a card entered in a recent Crafty Boots Challenge.  I was so impressed, I set about investigating how to achieve the effect.



As with the dandelion card I posted a little while ago, I stamped the heart stamp onto some dark brown pearlised card using Versamark, I then sprinkled it with Stamp n Bond and melted it with my heat gun.  Next, I covered it with gilding flakes and took off the excess with a brush.

I mounted it on some gold mirri board and placed it onto a Craftwork Cards scallop edge card.  The sentiment is also from Craftwork Cards.
