Altered Tutorial by Kim Piggott

Look what Kim Piggott made for your viewing pleasures! I have always loved the sparkle she gives to her cards and asked her to make a tutorial. Thank you so much for taking time out of your busy schedule to share this with our lovely bloggers!

Hello! I would like to show you how I add extra sparkle to my cards.

Before Distressing


I have distressed my images using the Tim Holtz distressing tool. I love this tool, it gives such fabulous results and is so quick and easy!


Then I added the Ranger Tim Holtz vintage photo distress ink to the distressed edge.


I like to distress my flowers with distress ink too. Here is my white Prima flower before distressing:

I now begin adding my sparkle. I use Ranger stickles glue.

So there you have it. I am now totally addicted to using stickles glitter glue. It is so easy and convenient to use and I really love the way it lifts my cards. I am in love with the stickles!



Luv,
Kim
