Laura here sharing a fun, glittery technique with you today! There are a lot of really great acetate accents, embellishments and "papers" on the market right now that can be incorporated onto a crafty project. Some have some colour and others are black and clear. I recently played with this one from Bella Blvd.
And added some glitter to it to make it coordinate with my layout.
I sort of strategically added the glitter to "random" hearts in the design.
This is the process that I used, it is super easy, dries quickly and the glitter doesn't flake off easily when it is complete.
Working on the back of the sheet, I started with a glue pen, adding the adhesive to a few hearts at a time in one area of the page.
It is a little hard to see in this photo, but I only added the adhesive to the very centre heart int the cluster.
Next I sprinkled on the glitter.
Tap off the excess, onto a clean piece of scrap paper, you can re-use it later.
This is a front view. Adding the glitter to the back really helps cut down on the glitter being rubbed off of your page and making a mess in your album.
After glittering my sheet, I added it to my base page by hiding the adhesive behind my page elements and then I added a couple of decorative stitching.
Thanks for visiting!
Gorgeous page Laura, The embellishments are just so lovely. Thank you for the technique tips and I'd like to try this one day.
