Let it Snow- Glitter Card

My sales rep, Emily, shared this wonderful technique with me last week.  Once I had a chance to play, this is what I created.



To create this you'll need:
1.  The Ultra Fine glitter that we get from Elizabeth Crafts (the one we use with the Peels and the Copic Markers)
2.  A beautiful stamp.  The stamp we used is from Inkadinkado.  We have several in stock at the store.
3.  Ink for stamping.  We used Turquoise Gem from Tsukineko for one card and one of the purple Brilliance colors (sorry, don't remember the name of the color) for the second sample.
4.  A sheet of double sided adhesive.  We carry the Sizzix adhesive sheets, but you can use any brand.

Stamp your image on a sheet of white cardstock.  Once dry, adhere a piece of double sided adhesive over the entire stamped image.  Remove the backing from the adhesive sheet and apply the glitter.  Once it's covered with the glitter, I rub my finger over it just to make sure that it sticks well.  Empty the extra glitter back into the jar and assemble your card.  It's that easy!

Here's a close-up look of the card.
