A small tub goes such a long way, but I would advise you to decant it into a larger container as the flakes tend to swell once they get to the air.
Plus they also fly everywhere so don't have your windows open or the fan on when you are adding them.
There are lots of different ways they can be used and double sided sheets are just one of them.
The flakes come in lots of different colours and mixes too, some with red flakes, or how about green ones, or blue ??
Because there are so many in a pot it is a good idea to get together with another crafty friend and buy two different colour ways and then swap some over so you get some of each.
Here is the video ...
This video has been added to a playlist on YouTube about adding flakes to your card and will be shown at the end of the video, but it also includes glitter and foil to the design as well.
Bye for now ...

Good morning Christina, today’s cards are truly luxurious! My favourite is the lilac one. The last time I had the gilding flakes out was disastrous. It was a hot day, a year or two ago and I was crafting with the fan on ~ I don’t need to say anymore, do I? It took me ages to clean up and I’ve never used them since! Have a good day. Hugs, Maggie Coleman xx

Morning - 🎂 birthday girl. Hope you have a great day. If memory serves me well I have some gilding flakes down the back of a cupboard. May have to get them out. I’ll never get that cleaning done!!! Janet Boyne
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday 🎂🎉🎈💐. Hoping that you have a fabulous day 😊
ReplyDeleteYour cards are beautiful. Sadly never got on with gilding flakes. Have to look at your video so maybe, maybe they can come out from the back in the cupboard. 🤗x
