stamp the image
stamp the medalion on to a transparent sheet with black stazon ink. My looks white but it's just the paper underneath.

glue the stamped image
apply artinstitute dries clear glue using the fine metal nib.Then sprinkle with ultra fine glitter. Continue with the one colour where needed, shaking off any excess glitter. If you cheek the back of the plastic it will look white, this is because the glue is wet. As the glue dries it clears in colour and all you see through is the glitter colour. Repeat this process till the three colours are completed and dried. For colour guild refere to the finished card.

Glue glittered medalion on to your card
first cut out the glittered medalion and using the dries clear glue , on the gritty glittered side attach to the centre of your square card. NB : apply glue where there is glitter so no glue shows through the clear plastic. The stamped image is smooth to the touch but the lovely glittered colours shine through and look very impressive. Once you try this method you'll want to use it with lot of stamps and if you follow my method and use the good quallity products recommended, you'll find it very simple and fun to do, plus people that recieve your cards will be amazed at your brilliance.
