First step, find some glitter - whatever color you wish and some glue. If I'm doing a brad or flower I usually use a really light textured glue such as JudiKins glaze. I like Mod Podge for the heavier items, such as buttons. Although today I used JudiKins for the buttons and it worked fine.
Ok, now once you start this process, you need to work quickly because you don't want your glue to dry and get all clumpy when you add the glitter. So I make a pile of glue and then some piles of glitter and dip the items in the glue and then the glitter and voila!
Then, just pick out your image - mine is from SHELLY'S IMAGES SHOP and make your card. I didn't use all that I made because I didn't love the silver on the flower, but that's ok. Might use it for something else:)
Hope you will find this helpful:) Have a wonderful day!!
