Hi All!
I’ve had these peel-off stickers for awhile and finally got around to using them. They are really easy to work with. Ellen Hutson has a bunch of different designs – just search “peel off stickers”. I used some fine glitter from Stampin’ Up! and am now just realizing that it has been retired. Ugh, seriously, I’ve been doing that a lot lately. This whole retirement thing is getting kind of old with me. Sorry I haven’t been as on top of the retired items as I was last year.
I was planning to use silver glitter and then color with Copics, but I was surprised to find out I don’t have any silver glitter. When I think about it, I don’t use glitter all that much. But, I love how glitter on this adhesive paper comes out – very sparkly!
The black butterflies were punched using the Stampin’ Up! Bitty Butterfly punch, which is actually part of a bundle that is 15% off right now. The bundle includes the Papillion Potpourri set and the Bitty Butterfly punch. Get the wood-mount bundle or the clear-mount bundle. By the way, the Papillion Potpourri is great. See it on these cards.
Enjoy the video and have a great week!

Beautiful card. I watch for your videos every week. It’s nice you use other products than just Stamping up. Thank you. Can’t wait til next week.

Hello Darlene: I love that big background stamp and the vertical sentiments are fabulous. Sometimes it’s just what you need to fit the sentiment perfectly. Love your butterflies and glitter, the only down side of glitter is that it gets everywhere and it sticks to your hands like crazy but the end result is always spectacular. Thank you for your videos, I absolutely love them all.

Darlene, it’s me again: I forgot to ask you if you could possibly tell me the name of that fun stuff you used in one of your owl cards to make the trim puffy. I remember you have to heat it up or let it dry to make it puff up. Thank you.
Maria.

Hi Maria, I think you mean the liquid applique.
Maureen
Very pretty! I never would have thought to paint the stickles on for a more subtle effect. Love those stickers you used.
Anne from France
I love this card! I didn’t think that the sticker would adhere to the glitter..that makes it easier! Thank you for the inspiration and technique ideas!
Gabby
Pretty card! BEAUTIFUL, sparkly butterflies! Thx for the video showing how you made them. 🙂
Casey Thrush

Is there a way to use glitter on letters or the sentiments?A friend was wanting to know the other day. When I saw this card I thought you would be the perfect person to ask.
Very pretty card.I look forward to Wednesday just to see your creations.
Darlene DeVries
Hi Lucinda, actually, there is a product called Heat and Stick powder. You stamp a sentiment with versamark ink, sprinkle heat and stick powder, then heat to set. While the sentiment is still hot, pour glitter over it and heat again. I used this powder on my Christmas card a few years ago. I showed it on a post HERE. Hope this helps!
Susan
How fun! I love glittery things but hate working with the stuff. Maybe you’ve given me some motivation to pull out those dozens of glitter tubes I have and give it a try! 🙂 LOL!
Very pretty card, Darlene!

So lovely…good job. I’m going to have to get my stickers out now and see if I can do as well as you did (NOT!).
Bethany
Tried out your card idea with my Cameo (electronic paper cutter) software, and digital paper since I don’t have stamps, ink and the other items listed and it came out fabulous. This was my first card and I love it. Thank you for the idea and the simpleness of it especially as a newbie. I haven’t gotten into stamps, inks, and glitter but I just might after this.

Very pretty card! I bought stickers by Sakura and haven’t used them. After about a year
in the dark they will finally grace a card thanks to you Darlene! Mahalo for the perfect
inspiration! Keep up the great ideas!.
Lori

Lori
Where did u get your butterflies from?
Darlene DeVries
Hi Lori, you can purchase the butterflies at Ellen Hutson.
Marilyn Shultz
Darlene, I have seen the stickers applied to the paper and then adding the glitter. Did you have a hard time getting the stickers to stick to the glitter? Just wondered. Love your videos!
Darlene DeVries
Hi Marilyn, no I didn’t have trouble at all. Maybe it depends on your brand?
