My Favorite Kind of Glitter

Seriously...glitter.  It's gets everywhere.  If you have visited my blog before, you know my hate/love relationship with glitter.  It started when I began working at a preschool.  Those little ones get glitter in places you didn't even know they could get them...of course, the days we worked with glitter would be the days I always had some kind of errand to run right after work.  So I had glitter on my face, my eyelid, my shirt, my pants....

Try cleaning that mess up.  Hateful, hateful craft item...

But...I like the way it looks.  It adds a nice element to your project.  But...it's a hateful item.  

In comes that wonderful item - Stickles!  Stickles does not offend me at all.  I can add glitter and sparkle without the evil mess.  If only they made Stickles in huge bottles that are preschool friendly...

 This is a card I made for my mother in law to give to someone who had just had a baby girl.  The stamp I used is a Whimsy stamp called Angel Angie.  She is embossed onto water color paper and watercolored with Twinkling H2Os.  I added Stickles to her angel wings.  

Base and Matte: SU Blush Blossom

Cloud DP: SU Whisper White embossed with Darice Cloudy Sky

Ribbon: Dollar Tree 

Jewels on the string with the Star and Pearls: Queen & Co.

Sentiment: SU Felicidades Siempre

 On the picture below you can see the Stickles better on the wings/feather and the stars.  I also added a teeny amount of glaze on the ladybug.
