Does anyone else have a lot of glitter in their workspace? It seems like as soon as I get the glitter out, I find it on me, the kids, my wife Monica and the dogs for about 3 weeks afterwards!
Well, since it was already a little bit glittery in the studio - I thought up another glitter card! This project showcases the Cupid Heart Die (98281) and the matching Classic Heart stamp (G1856) - I designed these two to work together for easy cutting (the die has a clear grid for easy positioning). Enjoy the video!
The shimmer of the Martha Stewart Sterling Silver Glitter against the Currant cardstock is really noticeable - and using the packing tape idea in the video you can see the glitter sticks right where it's supposed to!
Besides the Cupid Heart die, I also used the Heart Delights die (98280) to make the border...
...and the card comes together in no time!
What kind of wide tape are you using, dave? It looks so easy to use and the glittering is a must. Thanks for sharing.

Love all the hearts! And I just wanted to add my perspective on glitter (as well as confetti). I have a (now adult) daughter who loves celebrations, and she deliberately strews glitter and confetti on any little whim, like a sprite. One day I was vacuuming and noticed all the sparkle and bits on the floor. I almost thought it a nuisance until I realized that every day living with this daughter is a celebration of life. I decided to love it. Enjoy life, love and glitter! ♥♥♥
