This weeks entry had me filled with dread and fear - Glitter and Glitz. Not that i'm averse to a bit of Glitz you understand, it's the glitter that fills my heart with dread! I hate the stuff and so very, very rarely use it; it goes everywhere, it sticks to everything, it taints everything you use, it's not a particularly masculine thing to use, etc etc. So to HAVE to use it was a real challenge for me but I think I have managed to pull it off. I bought myself another Make It Crafty background, they really are amongst the very best in the world at the moment, and used one of the latest Kenny K creations - Toy Soldier, who was an absolute joy to colour. I used the glitter to just highlight where the snow was on the background, so rather subtle for me I thought!
Anyhoo, I hope you like it as much as I did creating it (LOL), and I will see you again real soon

ReplyDeleteI love playing with glitter!! Have just come across your blog and like your witty style of telling things, and your surname is very cool indeed! Did you know that Tim Holtz also hates glitter? I only just discovered that today when reading his blog regarding making his first Christmas tag...
