    Our Artist in Residence answers your questions
    Q: Melinda asks: "What are some ways to add metallic effects to a project?"
    A: There are a number of ways! Some of my favorites are metallic rub-ons (typically wax based pastes) and acrylic paints - I like to apply these lightly with my finger to raised textures on a project. Metallic leafing and foil sheets will adhere to tacky-when-dry glue or medium. There are many metallic embossing powders too, if your project is stampable. HERE is a thread in our forums with more suggestions - feel free to add your own!
