Da jeg skulle diecutte rammen til motivet oppdaget jeg at alle de små bitene satt fast inni diesen. Vanligvis dytter jeg dem bare ut med min Quickstik ~ men denne gangen, siden alle sammen satt fast, fikk jeg ideen om å bruke tape og forgyllingsflak / bladgull :) Se bilder lengre ned.
Inlaid Diecut Gilding ~ When I was diecutting the frame for this image I noticed all the little bits was still stuck inside the die. Usually I just poke them out with my Quickstik pick-up tool, but since they all were there it seemed such a waste... So I got the idea to stick them onto tape and use gilding flakes! It has probably been done before this way, but for me it was a eureka moment, that the negative diecut bits could actually be the art instead of useless scrapbits for the trash! The images below are kindof self explanatory but I added a tutorial text to make it easy if anyone wants to try it :)
