Tim Holtz/Ranger Distress Rock Candy Glitter Release

Hello my friends, today is very exciting with the latest release from Tim Holtz and Ranger. We now have the original Distress Rock Candy Glitter and the new addition to the family, Distress Rock Candy Chunky Glitter, in new sized super cute jars, collector items for sure. I've been a big fan of Distress Rock Candy Glitter forever but the new Chunky Glitter is an absolutely gorgeous mix of sparkly goodness.

I created a card using both new products with Tim Holtz/Sizzix Simple Plaid and BrushStrokes 2 Thinlits and the glittery sparkle is truly amazing.

I trimmed Distress Watercolor card to 4.1/4" x 5.1/2" and covered with a sheet of double sided adhesive. I die-cut Tim Holtz/Sizzix Simple Plaid Thinlits from Sizzix Eclectic Surfacez Lilac cardstock and trimmed to create a top and bottom corner.

I peeled off the Double Adhesive carrier sheet, carefully placed the Simple Plaid die-cuts and poured the Distress Rock Candy Chunky Glitter over the whole panel. I tapped off the excess, placed the panel in a sheet of folded over copy paper and patted it down on to the adhesive.

I die-cut the Tim Holtz/Sizzix BrushStrokes 2 Thinlits from Sizzix Eclectic Surfacez Cardstock.

I coloured the accent details and around the edges of the flowers with Rusty Hinge and Seedless Preserves Mini Distress Oxide inks using Distress Mini Blending Brushes and assembled using Distress Collage Medium.

I repeated the process on the leaves using Cracked Pistachio and Peeled Paint Mini Distress Blending Brushes.

I applied a thin coat of Distress Collage Medium to the die-cuts using a small paintbrush, dipped them into Distress Rock Candy Glitter and set aside to dry.

I trimmed the panel to 4" x 5.1/4", shaped the die-cuts to create dimension and fixed in place with Distress Collage Medium and Simon Says Thin Foam Squares.

Check out the beautiful sparkle

To finish I matted the panel on to Distress Black HeavyStock, added Tim Holtz Idea-ology Thoughts Label Stickers, Pink Fresh Studio Starry Sky Glitter Drops and fixed to a white card blank.
