Hello,
I think I did this right...if I didn't I know everyone is too sweet to be a challenge nazi anyway!
I did the stencil monoprint first with Peacock, Broken China, Shabby Shutters and Mustard Distress pads and mister. I dried it and put the stencil back on and then used translucent paste with a scrapper (looked like a credit card kinda) and sprinkled the transparent Sea Shell loose glitter on and let dry.
It looked like a bg to me instead of a card front so I added the God Quote from ODBD using ODBD die and a pretty peacock blue ribbon. I edged the die cut sentiment with peacock as well. My biggest problem was getting stuff to stick to my glitter. It is micro fine but not as fine as Elizabeth Craft Designs so nothing wanted to stick, (as in vellum)!
I used glue dots and they worked long enough to get a pic but I'm pretty sure it will come off in a matter of hours or days.
Well, thanks for looking!

Oh, oh, some of my favourite colours! I'm sure it's a floral stencil but somehow all the pretty peacock blue makes me think of the beach on a sunny day, it's probably the sparkle. I've found hot glue seems to stick fairly well on glitter, but I do know exactly the problem you had. Beautiful card, Robin.

Gorgeous, absolutely Robin. The colours and the stencil with the glitter are wonderful together, as is that fabulous ribbon. Wonderful sentiment to finish - beautifully done. tfs

Wow, this is just beautiful. Love the techniques and the beautifully tied bow. If I ever make it back to the Cat's Meow, I want a lesson on bow making.
