The Dreamweaver pinecone brass stencil was used. Emboss with gold embossing paste, remove stencil and clean. When image is dry (don't use any heat source) position stencil over image and dab the stick and glue all over. Heat for a few seconds, remove stencil (put in water), then quickly mash the gold leaf flakes all over. After surface is covered then use a stiff brush to remove excess flakes.

I love it! I have this stencil, and had planned to use my chalks and clear embossing paste, topped off with clear glitter - but I love what you did with it here! I'll have to give it a try!

I have used the paste in the past but never thought to try the leafing on it. I adds an extra step to the whole process, but it is a truly beautiful result. TFS!!
