Welcome to the Glitter Techniques Card Class!
I have used microfine glitter often in my Cards for MANY Years! I'm excited to create this class and share some of my absolute favourite glitter techniques. These techniques get an awesome WOW factor but once you learn how to do them they are really relatively simple to do!
Because of the extra Glitter and Sparkle, these Techniques are absolutely perfect for Holiday cards but you definitely aren't limited to only Holiday cards. The Techniques can easily be used for Birthday, Wedding and everyday cards!
This Class includes a Supply list that is broken down into the individual cards and the supplies used for each of those cards. Those supplies are linked to where you can purchase them to save you time sourcing your supplies or if you don't happen to have a local source for what you will need. You can find the Supply List Link with the Class Introductory Video.
In this class you will learn:
1 -My absolute favourite glitter techniques for cards
2 -Learn the Technique for using microfine glitter with double sided tape and why you need to use certain colours first
3 -Learn to make amazing glittery card fronts with your dies.
4 -Learn to make amazing glittery card fronts with your dies
The Cards taught in this class are Holiday images but can easily be changed to other occasions, simply change your colours, stamps and dies.
NOTE: If you do decide to change images, stamps and/or dies you may need to change the sizes of the cardstock pieces needed to complete your cards. Also, I used microfine glitter during the class. You CAN use a chunkier glitter but it will slightly change the finished look of your cards.
