I was anxious to go dotty and glittery with this background. I used a double heat embossing technique. First I stamped the background with Versamark embossing ink, sprinkled on Stampin' Up Heat 'n Stick Powder, and used the heat gun. Then I sprinkled glitter on the sticky surface and blasted with the heat gun a second time. I love the effect of the glitter on these circles.
I thought Ranger's Broken China distress ink matched the glitter the best. On the image I also added crystal glitter and Copic sketch marker BG72 ice ocean. I happened to have matching metallic ribbon and a metallic brad in my stash.

Sweet card, I love the glittery pattern!
Normally I don't head towards art that is glittery or dotty but this really has drawn me in. Perhaps it's the color scheme, perhaps it's the image...don't know but I do know that it speaks to me. Very nicely done, my friend!
Lovely, glittery piece! Valerie
The use of glitter is a fabulous idea.
There is such a sense of movement to your lovely card.
