Ok, so I know this was last week's sketch, but I didn't get to it until the weekend! I had decided that I wanted to try my hand at glitter again after a few tips were given on the PTI forums last week.
So, I used my scor tape and I LOVED the results! It was so much easier! I also used a paint brush to swipe off the excess glitter and it was perfect. My heart stamps weren't big enough to fill up the space, so I did something a bit different and used all buttons to create my heart. This was a bit different for me, too, because I normally am only a 2 layer girl and I actually used three on this one. White, Smokey Shadow, and the hearts paper from DCWV Seasons pack.
So, here's my question. Those big honkin' packs of paper (like the one I used here)...does anyone ever use all of the paper? I guess if I weren't only doing cards, it may be easier, but I have had one pack for over 4 years and it doesn't even look like I put a DENT in it! I keep telling myself that I won't buy any more paper until I use that stuff up (I have 3 12x12 packs of different paper), but it seems neverending!
Supplies (all PTI unless noted):
Paper - White, Smokey Shadow, DCWV Seasons dp
Stamps - Mega Mixed Messages
Ink - Pure Poppy
Other - Corner Rounder, Raspberry Fizz and Pure Poppy Vintage Buttons, Raspberry Fizz Saddle Stitch Ribbon, MS Candy Apple Glitter, Scor Tape

bravo ta carte est vraiment splendide, de très jolies couleurs
Liz I {heart} this card! Im going to give this a try because Im always looking for ways to use up my buttons.
I won't buy anymore of those 12x12 stacks of paper. I try to buy only the smaller sizes pads (8x8 from PTI or 6x6 from other companies). And if I really LOVE the design, I'll just buy the single sheet of 12x12. But really I need to stop buying pp - I have too much already!
I like your card! Love how the glitter gives the card some pizzaz at the top. And your button heart is cute!
Great job on the card, Liz. I still haven't braved glitter but this gives me hope!
Liz, your card is so gorgeous. I love it! I {heart} buttons, and I really like the button heart.
Oh yeah, Liz is rockin the glitter! Love this card Liz, especially what you did with the buttons; so CUTE!
Beautiful card..all the buttons..yummy!
Looooove this card!!!!!!!
Love the heart buttons. Great job!!!!
I love that button heart! It is a great card and hard to believe the only thing stamped is the sentiment.
What a fun take on the sketch!
