Using Glitter - HELP!!!

[Mommy1216]

I am making 20 Christmas cards for a woman I work with. I am putting Dazzling Diamonds on the front of every card. Is there a way that when the front of the card is touch a ton a glitter won't come off on your hands?
Thanks

how about crystal effects or the glue that Su sells???

[tdodd00]

Why don't you use Stickles...you get the glitter look and once it dries it doesn't come off at all.

Here is another vote for Stickles--glitter glue. Quick and easy!

Can you get Stickles in a dazzling diamond type *clear* finish? I want to add some glitter directly over a stamped an colored image and don't want to hide the lines and coloring/

I use the two way glue pen from SU, it works very well for holding my glitter on. I just bought some stickles, but havent tried them out yet so cant comment

You sure can. There are *clear* finishes of Stickles. I love stardust ..lets the image right through and adds lovely, sparkly glitter without the glitter mess. I really can't say enough good about stickles...I'm a sparkle nut,and I just love this stuff!

Where do you get the stickles at ? :confused: I love the glitter look but hate the mess. :( Thanks. Happy Stamping!!! Beckaroni

I've gotten some of mine online from Addicted to Rubber Stamping but if you have a Recollections near you they sell them too. I know other online stamp places sell them too but I can't think of names off the top of my head right now!

[beckaroni]

Thanks for the info. :p

Iridescent Ice would work.

I just found some at Walmart - I bought some red, because I think I already have all the other colors

[Mommy1216]

Thanks Everyone!!!

If you have a Archivers near ya, they have them.

I got my Stickles really cheap at frugalities.com. I know some people have had issues, but I had no problems. Fast and super cheap when it was 49% off.

hairspray also helps but you have to be careful

[meluvstampin]

Many stamp/scrapbook stores also sell them. Someone mentioned Archivers and Joannes has the same type of product unfer a different name. I also use stickles over glitter as there is no mess to put it on and it does not flake off at all. There are a few different clear/sparkle kinds. Diamond, Frosted lace, Irridescent Ice are all very nice looking. I have all 3 of them.

Eclectic Paperie sells them as well as Jacksonbelle now!

I love Stickles, and use it on almost every card I make. But, Dazzling Diamonds just has more sparkle.

I also use 2-way glue, and just smush it down into the adhesive while it's still wet, and give it a few really good taps to get the loose stuff off. Works fine.

If it's still "shedding", maybe try spray sealer.

I always use Crystals Stickles - they have some others now that are clear too.
TAC also carries them.

Stickles in a PIF package......it's GREAT!
Vronica;)

I always use Heat & Stick Powder for applying glitter - I brush off any excess, coverage is great and what's left, sticks!
