Oranges and...

...glitter!  Whatever next eh?  I have well and truly gone over to the Sparkly Side haven't I?  But then again, in my defence, Distress Glitter is rather delightful to use.   Here's another demo card from last week's tellybox shows.  This one uses Clear Texture Paste to hold onto the glitters and it was applied through the Flower & Butterfly That Special Touch mask.



I used several different colours on the main design so I got a nice light and shade look to the flower but if you don't want to have different colours, you don't have to... just use the one.   The little flower cluster was made using the Heartfelt Creations stamps on the shows, stamped onto cardstock, with Jet Black Archival, cut out and then coloured with Distress Inks with a smidge of DG in the middles using Glossy Accents to help them stick.


A short and sweet post today...  Thanks for looking, hope you having a great day! TTFN

Hi there Hels - I saw these demos on C&C and lurved those flowers so I have now bought both paste and stamps! I really enjoyed the demo and must get down to having a play (already have several of the masks).

So pleased for you all concerning your father in law. Good news!
