Default Faux Diamond Dust

Saw awesome samples, but can't find the actual technique anywhere?? I think it's a VersaMark pad with irridescent ice EP?? Does it have to be glossy paper? What sticks best if you want to mount something on top?? Thanks so much.

Default Glossy?

Thanks - yes, I had seen the tutorial, but it says glossy paper and quite a few of the samples looked like colored CS underneath - do you have to brayer color onto glossy for it to look best, can you just use colored CS? Thanks

You probably need to use glossy paper for maximum shine. Non glossy papers will not reflect light the way the glossy paper will. Hope that answers your question!

You can use colored cardstock or just plain white. I've always done it with regular (non-glossy) cardstock.
