Adding glitter turns an ordinary card...
... into a stunning one.

Glitter is yet another of my favourite additions and I'm sure will soon become one of yours.



Let the search box help you to find what you need.



It makes a card really special when added in small quantities. Too much can ruin the effect, so go sparingly. In that way a small pot can last ages.

Match the colour to your project. Use gold or silver for a rich effect. Try pewters and bronzes for something different.

Or try mixing your own colours and see what you come up with.

The row of bottles at the back of the picture are special glues.

These are another useful addition for a subtle effect. Especially useful when working with images. They can be used to create the appearance of folds in a dress, or highlight a specific area.

Always work on a piece of spare paper, that way the surplus can be tipped off the card, and caught on the paper, then just poured back in to the pot for next time.

Small white dots on a Christmas card give the appearance of snow flakes.

They come in lot of different colours, made by many different companies.



This card is created with double sided tape placed in random lines, and then sprinkled with Glamour Dust.

The punched hearts are treated to the same trick.

The sentiment is a pink peel off.

Another magical effect.

Shop around they aren't expensive and little goes a long way.
