Old books with decorated or gilded spines make me swoon! I thought it would be fun to try to add something similar to books and junk journals I make. After some experimenting, I found something that turned out great. Easy! No foil or iron. Just a little bit of gesso and metallic pens. Join me to make some faux gilded book spines! Want to help me make more videos? You can now buy me a coffee to keep the videos flowing! Caffeine always helps, right? ☕ https://www.buymeacoffee.com/madpapercrush Kits mentioned in this video: All the Marbles: https://etsy.me/2PMnlcy Favorite tools and supplies: https://www.amazon.com/shop/madpapercrush *As an Amazon affiliate, I may be compensated for qualifying purchases.
