I normally avoid loose glitter at all costs. I don't like finding little flakes of glitter all over the place when I'm done. But I love how sparkly it is! :-) For whatever reason, when I decided to join in Some Odd Girl's 12 Weeks of Christmas, I decided to start with glitter! Who knows what I was thinking, but I think in the end it was worth it.
I started by stamping the cute penguin image from the Warm Wishes Tia set on a sheet of acetate. Then bit by bit, I put some crystal lacquer down and covered it with glitter. I continued the process until the entire penguin was covered.
While my glittery penguin was drying, I took some patterened paper and embossed the sentiment with some snowflakes (all from the same set) in white. To attach the acetate to the paper, I used my Crop-a-dile and a grommet to hold the two together. The finished tag size is 2-1/2" x 6".
Once the glittering was done, the rest was fairly straight forward. I do like how the image turned out, but I don't think I'll be playing with glitter again any time soon.
