Smooch Glitz Resist Tutorial Video

Posted on May 15, 2013 by inkypaws| 1 Comment

Check me out on the Clearsnap Blog today!

It’s always fun to get an unexpected result. I found myself out of clear embossing powder one day and decided see what would happen if I used Smooch Glitz as my resist and I loved the sparkly results!

I used Smooch Glitz Frost to create random circles on my cardstock. I love the built in brush that comes with Smooch inks.

I let it dry and then spritzed lightly with Bubblegum and Artichoke ColorBox Stephanie Barnard Premium Dye Ink Sprays

I let the ink set for a minute and then rubbed the excess ink from the Smooch Glitz with a damp paper towel. A beautiful background in just minutes!

Here are the products I used to make my card:
