Glitter Tutorial

I just wanted to share a simple way to apply glitter to your project.

#1- Stamp your image.

#2- Turn your image upside down and run it through your Xyron or sticker maker.

#3- Peel the backing off of your "sticker".

#4-Pour glitter over your "sticky" image.

#5- Shake off excess glitter.

#6- Complete your project.

Robyn - What a great idea. I bought my Xyron at Target over a year ago on clearance and am embarassed to say I have not used it yet :o( Now I may have to pull it out and give this technique a try. Thanks for the inspiration.

Hey girl. Can you help me out? I've been thinking of getting an xyron machine, but have been hesitant to... It seems that it would waste a lot of sticky in there if your image is not the same size as the sticky roll. Does that make sense? I'm on a tight stamping budget and I'm always looking for cheaper ways to do things. Is it worth it to get one of these? I'm drooling over them I tell you!

Wonderful tutorial, thanks for sharing!
Hugs,
Courtney

I just linked to your site from Gina K's site and I am SO glad I did. Love the idea of using the xyron to apply glitter. Never thought of that! So glad I stopped by!
