Swirled and Sparkly!

Photo Details

Poster: arinstamps

This is for today's technique challenge to make a glitter background. This was a great challenge for me, Lynn -- thank you! I don't use my glue pad nearly often enough:)

I wish this looked as impressive in the pic as it does IRL. Glitter always loses its bang in a photo. Anyone have any secret tips for me?

I also incorporated Jessie's Great Swaps Girls challenge to use at least 3 embellies -- glitter, brads and ribbon. Thanks for the challenge, Jessie:)http://greatswapsgirls.blogspot.com/...-how-many.html
