Gilded Leaves

Today I answered a challenge on the PWMB - it called for foiling of some kind.  I chose to use gilding flakes.  I covered a piece of card stock with double sided adhesive, then added the flakes & burnished them.  Then I die cut the leaves using a variety of Card Making Magic dies in my collection (A2 Card & Box, A5 Box, 5X7 Card & Box, Ultimate Number & Overlay). Apparently the pressure of my Gemini machine caused some stickiness on these die cut leaves, so I brushed them them lightly with baby powder to ensure the stickiness wouldn't cause any issues.  

Card #1 (above): The letters were from a Hunkydory kit & I glued them to pieces of ribbon.  The background was also Hunkydory "Adorable Scoreable" and the gold is a gold linen card stock from my stash.

Card #2:

This second card uses many of the same materials.  I added the focal sentiment is a Hunkydory piece from a different set.  As you can see, I added some ribbon & lace from my stash.
