{Tue} Technique: Cards using DIY Glitter Glue Video Tutorial

Hello, 

Today I'm sharing a video tutorial!

I love glitter, but the glitter glues I buy never seen to have enough glitter...so sometimes, I make my own. Although, loose glitter is a nightmare...I must admit! 

But since I still have them (what was I thinking when I bought them?), I thought I should use them once in a while! =)

Here's the card I used as example in the video:

Challenges:

1. Word Art Wed #179: AG Family Friendly Challenge

2. SSS Wed Make Your Own Background
3. CAS on Sun Challenge #56: Gold
4. Cards In Envy: Pretty in Pink

Here's a card I've made previously:

Hope you like it!
