If you mean the puffy snow, like on branches or tops of things, it is liquid applique. You can get it at most craft stores. When you heat it, it puffs up beautifully. Good luck!

I often use Delta SnowTex on mine. After the SnowTex dries, I add some Stickles or Dazzling Diamonds over the top. Here is an example of one card that I made with SnowTex: Warm Holiday Wishes- Front by thecountryrose at Splitcoaststampers

Thank you . I bought mine at Hobby Lobby, but I think that Michael's may have it too.

Thanks...I am adding that item to my Michael's mission for Thursday
Loved your tutorial on the aluminum foil, something I'll be attempting.

Here are two other options: If you want the entire card covered with a light coat of glitter you can run the card front through a xyron machine and then just sprinkle on the glitter.

And if you just need touches of glitter here and there you can use 2 way glue pens. Put a little glue on the card and sprinkle on the glitter and let it dry. The 2 way glue comes out blue but dries clear.

Is there any other alternative to the Gesso? I can't find it anywhere.
