Awesome, thanks! It looks real. I checked my glitter an it is not embossing
type, comes in larger bottles, regular $4.99 each bottle, that is why I am
going back and getting the kit of around 30 colors for around $15.00 50% of
the regular $29.00 for the set they are smaller bottles which will be perfect,
and if I never use them to actually do nails, I will for sure use it for
crafting.
I posted the fill I did using my turquoise glitter on the BT site. Not great
by any means, but nice for first time, and I had a little residue left from
the yellow color that was on her nails from Halloween, didn't show much in the
posted pic, but does on some that I had close up. Sometimes just cannot get
it all off.
Thanks again,
Shannon

I have used those glitters...and if you do end up getting some of the
embossing type you can use it and put mylar over them...I did this so they
didnt go to waste. Its kind of trial and error when you get them at the craft
store cause some of them look like they could be ultras or micro fines and then
they end up doing that separating thing...I will have to go back and check that
line out again..

Ohhhhh thank you soooo much!!! I will have to make a trip to Spencers and
Staples now, LOL. Have you tried the Martha Stewart glitters? They seemed to
work awesome for me. Never had anything ever go so easy. I will definitely
check out your pics.
Thanks again,

We embed the paper money you get at stores like Spencer gifts..its
novelty toilet paper...I use it in gel .. you want to lay the paper down on the
gel in little strip or peices and gently brush a light layer over the top to
make it stay in place...kind of like wetting it down so to speak... We did this
at the Akzentz booth in Vegas...I'll see if I can find some pics to post for
you.
When your buying glitter at craft stores, do yourself a favor and dont get
the embossing ones..they separate, leaving voids between the peices of glitter.
The best glitter I have found are on www.artglitter.com .. great stuff. I also
like to use this glitter/gel mix too when I embed my canes...k off to find you
the paper money pics. Course you can help yourself to my myspace page..

I was wondering about how to embed money into the gels/AC. I tried it with
my gel, didn't work out so well, the paper bill seemed to thick and didn't
want to lay down. Do I have to photo copy the dollar bill first or do I need
to bend and shape the bill first? Don't know what to do, so I figured I'd ask
the experts. Just playing around with all this free time I have lately.
Ok, so I tried my gel with glitter, and it turned out amazing. Love it. I
am using Martha Stewarts glitters from Michaels craft supply. Her glitters are
awesome, nice and super fine, with amazing colors. I found a pack of I think
30 colors in it, I am going to buy later this week, using another 50%off
coupon. Used my other one today on a cabinet from there. Anyway, working with
the glitter was much easier than I expected. Hoping to do some great Xmas ones
with it.
Thanks for all the great ideas, keep em coming!!!
