Howdy ladies,
How do you make the glitter stick to your cards (other than small dabs)? I've been reading about heat-n-stick and that sounds good...any opinions or other suggestions? :idea:
Thanks!

I have used heat and stick powder with versamark when doing the whole image covered in diamond dust glitter. It worked well, just took the two steps - versamark and heat & stick, heat it, then add glitter, shake off and re-heat a little.

If I am going glitter on the edges, I use 2 sided tape. If I just want a little spot, I use "stickles" as the glue is already there.

I only use one thing for glitter.... a 2-way glue pen. It works fabulously!! You have a lot of control over how little or how much glue you want to put on, and the glitter sticks great!! No heating required!

Traci-Is that two way pen an SU thing?

SU does sell a 2-way glue pen, but I have also seen them elsewhere. I picked up one at an office supply store once. I don't know if maybe Michaels carries them too?? I know there are other brands....

The only thing I've used is tacky glue.

I use both heat & stick powder and a two way glue pen. Both work very well......I should add that I hate glitter! I use it sometimes, but I hate it.....messy!

All of the above and I just found a new glue pen called Quickie Glue by Sakura. It's a little roller pen that works great. I learned about it at the last convention I went to and it cost just under $4.
