A striking technique with the Naturally Gilded specialty paper; with video & free project sheet!


I shared how to make this card on last week's video. It features the Naturally Gilded designer paper seen here.  

This pretty paper has a white background and Silver, Gold or Copper foil patterns. You can see it in the Online Exclusives while supplies last. 

I decided to do a direct to paper resist technique and change the White background to Black.  You can do this technique on any foil printed designer paper. The foil resists the ink so you can wipe it off once the background is saturated. 

I used a Black Memento ink pad which is water-based. You can use any water-based ink but not Stazon. Stazon ink would cover the foil patterns. 

How did I do it?  I had my paper laying face up and rubbed or tapped my Memento ink pad all over the specialty paper. Once you're done adding ink simply wipe the ink off the foil prints with a tissue or paper towel.  

I created a free project sheet for these cards; you can download or print it here: Download Naturally Gilded Ink Resist technique

*Below is the video where I shared this technique.  I also shared my new Annual Catalog products and lots of amazing swaps too.  Be sure to follow me on YouTube here.

  • Velvet Meadow gatefold card with video & free project sheet


    This is another card we made at my July card clubs. It features the Velvet Meadow specialty DSP seen here.

    It’s a simple gatefold card. I matched most of the DSP so it created a full panel on the front. This DSP has fussy or flocked areas on it. It does feel velvety!

    I also used the new Exciting Times punch bundle for the center. You can see it here.

    Here’s what the inside looks like. I added a strip of the DSP along with the white for stamping and signing. Then added a skinny divider of Bubble Bath for a little accent color.

    My colors include Berry Burst, Bubble Bath and Peaceful Pine.

    I created a free project sheet for this card; click here to download or print it. Remember it’s a great idea to save these on your computer for easy access.

    The video tutorial for this card and one more neat fun fold is below. Thanks for popping in today!
