I haven't done one of these in a long time. I love doing them and love the effect, but there is glitter ALL over everything and everyone when I get done. I stamp the image on white paper and then run the transparency through the copier at work. I have tried stamping directly on the transparency but my stamp always slides so copying makes it much easier. On the back I used Art Institute glue and then started with the darkest color of glitter first, ending with the white. When it was dry, I layered that on to some black glitter paper that I found at Wal Mart. I used red line tape because all that glitter makes it hard to adhere. It's hard to see the glitter on the black cs in the picture. I used the snowflake cb folder for the white layer.
Thanks for looking!
