This is kind of a "Faux Tile Meets Dryer Sheet" technique. I start with the dryer sheet technique (glitter on the dryer sheet that covers the xyroned image), but then I apply clear EP so the image isn't so "fuzzy." I ended up with three layers of EP, adding a little more glitter as needed. It produces kind of a bumpy, glittery glazed tile effect. The front panel is on dimensionals.

This is so pretty! I love what you did with the dryer sheet, glitter and ep. And since I'm such a ribbon addict, I LOVE how you tied the black gingham!

Magnificent! Love the tile-look, the colors, the textures, the ovals, and those b&w gingham ribbons are perfect on this! I'll say it again: magnificent!

Oh, now this card looks very familiar! LOL! Probably because I have it on display in my stamp room! It's even prettier in person, and the detail inside is amazing!
