I have found a great blog called Getting Cricky with K Andrew. She has lots of challenges and lots of great video tutorials. Her latest challenge is doing something that has to do with butterflies. She has a video on how to make glitter coated wire flourishes. I had already made this card and when I saw how to make the glitter wire I was all over that!
I used a little heavier wire than what the video said to use. I just used what I had and I used a clear tacky glue. I wouldn't recommend that. It does need to be a quick drying glue.
They turned out great and I will defintly be doing this technique again. I love glitter but hate using it. It does get every where. My youngest son said that glitter is the herpes of the craft world. Once you get it you can never get rid of it. Truer word never spoken about glitter.
Here is where I am linking to this week.

Lovely card - it just so happens that I have a glittered butterfly drying in my studio right now, hoping it will land on a scrapbook page.
