MIX 517 / 518 Gilded Butterfly
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: Cook22

 I've combined Polly's Metallics MIX challenge (MIX517: Metallics (12/23/2022) by peeps321 at Splitcoaststampers) which I missed last week because I had a lot of Christmas prep cooking to do) with Ky's today, which is to use alcohol inks - Here's the cheers! Mix518 (12/30/2022) by Scrapacat at Splitcoaststampers

I loved her samples on vellum. I used a couple of greens, a pearlescent green and gold after spritzing the vellum with alcohol. Then I dabbed some copper gilding flakes onto any patches that were still tacky when I was going to die-cut it. I embossed with probably my very first ef.
I had also been keen to try the gilded die-cuts from Falliday Fest - Gilded Die Cuts Tutorials at Splitcoaststampers. I regularly use gilding flakes on die-cut sentiments especially, but I liked the idea of combining them with the Perfect Pearls. I skipped the embossing step, because I didn't think it would work that well with the butterfly. I used gilding flakes and Perfect Pearls. I added a gel pen border and a sentiment from my desk - I got one of those ones that stamps 5at a time with different birthday wishes and the banner outlines on a separate stamp.

Beautiful! That splash of green is so pretty especially on the embossing. Well done on the guilding flakes die cut tutorial. That was fun but messy.
