Just Add Ink #280....Glimmer!


Lordy that week flew! I can't believe it's time to share our new Just Add Ink challenge already.  

This week it's all about the "SPARKLE" well "GLIMMER" to be more precise..:0) Our challenge this week is to "Just Add Glimmer" to your project....So easy and so many options.

I had just received my "Happy Patterns" masks from SU and had so many fun ideas l wanted to try, this was one of them.
I chose the mask l wanted to use and using a sponge and some good old PVA glue, l gently applied it to the card base, it literally took no time to dry as it's a really thin application. Don't forget to wash your mask ASAP as it will dry on there quickly too!
So l had my base, now for some "GLIMMER"...after trying a few different options, l finally settled for some elegant glimmer butterflies. 
I then created a matching box using This fab youtube tutorial from Papercraft Button.

Don't forget to pop over to the challenge blog and be "Glimmer" inspired!

  1. PVA glue through a stencil is a new one to me Nikki but its looks fabulous - and I will just have to try it now! Love the black on black effect! And don't the butterflies just float and gleam above that expanse of black! xxx
