Love those Stamp samples from Stacy's video? Then let's take a look on how to make them! First you'll need Staz-On Black ink, a transparency sheet, Stamp of your choice, Glossy Accents (there are other adhesives you can use that work, but GA is what I had on hand), small paint brush, and lots of colorful glitter!
Start by stamping your image on your transparency using the Staz-Ons ink. (Note: It will slide around, so use slow even pressure while pushing down on the stamp) Let dry, then turn over
Next spread your glossy accents on a scrap piece of paper
Use your brush to apply to the BACK of the transparency. Only place adhesive where you want the color glitter your working with. For example : I would paint the center of the flower, and then apply yellow glitter. I would paint the petals when I'm getting ready to use the blue glitter. Sprinkle on glitter, shake off excess glitter.
Paint a new section every time you go to use a new glitter color. (If you do decide to use Glossy accents, I found that patting it a little after you've sprinkled the glitter really packs it into the product and you get maximum glitter coverage this way.) Continue painting and adding different glitters colors to where you want, and let dry for several hours.
Finished product
If you need a quick alternative you can do the same process as above, but substitute your adhesive and glitter for Stickles. It doesn't come out as vibrant as the glitter, but definitely a cute alternative!
This is really pretty!! I usually get glitter stuck in places I don't want it. Woe is me!! But I'm going to try it anyway!!
