Default Black Glossy Paper

I have 1/2 a ream of black glossy paper that I bought almost a year ago. I do not know what to do with it!! (Other than use it as a border on cards) Please ... any suggestions or techniques so I can put this paper to work!!!

When I do a search in the gallery, I get about 88 pages of everything with the words black, glossy and paper in it! But not neccessarily, black glossy paper!!

Thanks!

Sharon

I bought the black glossy after seeing this demo:
Pounce 2 or 3 different colored metallic pens (I use the Marvy brand) randomly on the cardstock. Spritz with water. Pounce the cardstock with crumpled plastic wrap to blend the colors. Let dry and it makes a great marbled background.

Pearl-ex? That's all I can think of actually. Sorry.

I'm not big on glossy, but I do like to use it as a mat sometimes for a bit of shine. I use pink glossy with black, so black glossy might work with pink?

Stamp and emboss with Pearl Ex (the interference colors - mixed with some clear embossing powder). The interference colors show up well on black. You can use a background stamp, or try some leaf stamps.

I use Elmers Glue and Pearl Ex with a heating tool for a unique background.
