New Tricks from VSN

This is a new trick I tried during VSN. I actually goofed it up, but it still looks okay.  I read about this on Susan Raihala's blog, Simplicity.  I used some wide sticky strip and layered my ribbon on diagonally.  Then I trimmed it with my sewing scissors (not that I do a lot of sewing).  I think the original directions regarding this include a wrap around to the back so that there is no fraying!  This is a first attempt folks!

Believe it or not, I have never glittered an entire image panel.  I admit that I was a little hesitant so I went with a small image panel.  This was perfect for use on the latest CPS sketch :)  I have used my heat and stick powder before, but I really had never achieved this kind of effect before.  It is shockingly sparkly with a yum factor of 10!  The photo just doesn't do it justice. 

Thanks for stopping by!
