I sure hope so, cause this is glitter, glitter everywhere! I like glitter, I just prefer it in a glitter glue. Loose glitter is just so unmanageable at times. But I pulled it out for this. I also wasn't sure about the heat & stick powder. I've had for a while but never had much luck with it. For some reason, it behaved like a champ today. Go figure!
The image was stamped once on lime and again on white. I colored the cake and hat and pieced it onto the lime one. I used a mesh cb folder on the frame and oval behind the sentiment. Then I used the nestie oval. If you do it the other way around, you'll lose the oval edging you get w/ the nestie. Then I rubbed the mandarin ink over them. (the other side of the embossed folder looks like mesh, but on this side, it looks reptilian to me.)
I die cut the lattice and colored it w/ a marker. Then I attached double sided tape to the back side and spread orange glitter over the top.
For the bg, I stamped various images and dots (remember that dot stamp I made last week?) w/ the VM and coated w/ the heat & stick; heated slightly then added the glitters and heated again. I attached this to a white card and added all my images w/ foam tape. I cut a slit in the cake and added the candle w/ some seriously high foam tape. TFL
Forgot to mention- I've had these funny googlie eyes for a while. Good thing, cause they came in handy!

This is just fantastic! I love the glittery background images and all the details! The main image is super cute and has so much dimension! Awesome card!
Hey, Julie. I thought we were going to be side by side as we are right together in the forum but there is one between us in the gallery. LOL Your card is adorable.
