Challenge #424 - Glitter!

Welcome to another fabulous Krafty Challenge!
Are you ready for some krafty fun??
We've got a super easy theme for you this week and we hope you can play along!




This week's challenge is all about GLITTER!!!

Welcome to the weekend everyone and another challenge with Kraftin Kimmie Stamps! Mindy here and I'm  hosting the challenge today Now.... I don't really like to play with "real" glitter because I tend to make a mess so let me explain what I did lol.

I'm starting off my card by stamping my image from the Fairy Loved stamp set onto Neenah white cardstock with copic friendly ink. Then I colored with my copic markers and fussy cut my image out.


For my background, I used a piece of Canson watercolor paper and started randomly applying some teals and purples to my background using the wet on wet technique. What that means is I wet my paper then got my brush wet , dipped it in the paint and applied it to the wet paper. This allows the watercolor to move around a little more. I'm no pro at watercolor but I love the effects it gives. 


Once I was satisfied with my background, I took it down to the basement and heavily sprayed it with Glitter spray. You need a well ventilated room for this because this stuff really stinks. It's really hard to capture in the picture but it just sparkles in real life! I also die cut some clouds from some gold glitter paper and added to my sky. I'm using an A2 size cardbase to add my watercolor panel to.


Finally I added my image to the background with some foam squares to separate it a little from the sky.
