More Gilded Leafing with Pretty Perennials and a video tutorial

 

This week, we’d like to introduce another way to adhere Gilded Leafing from Stampin’ Up! We have chosen the stamp set, Pretty Perennials to showcase Heat & Stick Powder from Stampin’ Up. God created a lot of flowers to have a rich yellow center….and now a perfect was to simulate the center and give a little texture is to use Heat & Stick Powder as the adhesive to hold Gilded Leafing for the center of flowers. Here’s a video to watch to see how easy it is!

 
 


What is Heat & Stick Powder?

It’s really just an adhesive. It looks and feels a lot like white or clear embossing powder and is held in place by VersaMark ink. Once you have stamped in VersaMark and put Heat & Stick Powder over the VersaMark, heat from a Heating Tool will activate it to a sticky adhesive that will hold on to your Gilded Leafing.
