I tried a new-to-me technique on this card... adding glitter glue to an embossed panel with a brayer. I really like the effect it creates. This Joy sentiment with the poinsettia "o" coordinates perfectly. I think I have yet to use it without adding a little bling to the centre. ;) The thin black mat pulls everything together.

Beautiful effect with the glitter glue. The background was a lovely pearlescent look and co-ordinates perfectly of course with your feature word.
Very sweet card.

OHHHHH! You always introduce me to the coolest techniques! I have never heard of glitter on an embossed panel! LOVE LOVE LOVE!
This is so pretty!!! The embossing looks great.
Happy Monday...you weirdo ;P
Of course you need to add bling there! I would never be able to resist either :) Love the brayer idea - is it hard to clean off the brayer afterwards? Or do you not want to talk about that?
Oh! Did you see you won a featured product giveaway at Scrapbooker's Paradise?? Congrats!!!
So elegant! Love the embossing on this. All that glitter just really makes it pop!

Glitter glue in an embossing folder? Seriously, where do you find these techniques? It looks amazing, and I love the effect with the poinsettia background and in the center.
