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. 

NATURALLY GILDED 12" X 12" (30.5 X 30.5 CM) SPECIALTY DESIGNER SERIES PAPER Save

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.

    • I used the images that finished the lined oval & rectangle to decorate the inside ‘left’ edge on the cards.
    • We used Blends markers to color in the small images.
    • The DSP is the Beach Boardwalk designer paper for the left edge.
    • The greetings are from the stamp set called ‘The Right Words’ seen here. It’s one of my favorite greeting sets.

    I was in the middle of the video tutorial for this card but the video failed right before I started the project. And I made my last packet. So I do not have a video for it. But hopefully the project sheet above helps you out.
