How to use Sugar Coating Glitter????

My LSS is going out of business and today I bought some sugar coating glitter for half price. They had brads that were already coated, but buying the glitter to do it myself was much cheaper. What would I use to adhere it? Any ideas?? What would I use it on other than brads?

THANKS!!

i would say you could us the glitter on anything .. alpha . other embellies anything you want to have glitter effect on..

i would use the brads that had the glitter on them

i have bought the paper and hated it glitter went everywhere so i got ride of it.. but i only have boys also and was more girly to me ...

I'm not sure what difference there is between the sugar coating glitter and regular extrafine glitter (I LOVE Martha's!!!)... but here's an idea for glitter that i've used...

You can get a pen that is like the Sakura quickie glue pen, and just write/draw with that pen with the design that you want. Sprinkle glitter over the top, and voila, your drawing will come to life! You can also use it to add extra bling to stickers, lettering, edges of mats, etc!

I'm thinking about how you'd glitter an individual brad. My thought is that to do a bunch of them at once you'd stick them in a piece of foam or something so they're standing up, and then use spray adhesive all over and sprinkle the glitter on. To do them one by one, I think you might be able to use mod podge. Hopefully someone that has done it will have an idea!

I've made glitter brads by using Stickles on a regular brad. It's glitter in a glue-like base. You could try mixing your glitter with glue and spreading it on the brads. I used a discarded foam backing from an old set of brads to hold my newly glittered brads as I applied the glitter and while they dried.

Here's my layout with my homemade glittered brads:

Hawaii1 and Hawaii2

Modge podge works great!

Diamond Glaze works good too!

When I want to sugar coat an entire die cut, I send it through my Xyron twice, making both sides sticky.

When I want it in specific areas, I use a glue pen. I loved my sugar coating for my xmas cards this year.

What exactly is sugar coating glitter?

• megand Said:

It's glitter from Doodlebug , the same glitter they use to make the sugarcoated cardstock they sell.

Love the idea about the Xyron --I'm totally going to try that!!

The Glue Stamp Pad works great with it too--I stamped on some acetate for a book I did for a friend and it came out great.

Oh these are some great ideas, I am going to try this out. I got some of this on sale too!! I love the Doodlebug colors and collections!!
