Showing Glitter

I have been having issues showing glitter digitally on my project when required by a challenge. I have a couple of tutorials that show you how to recreate the look of glitter using different filters. The effect was okay and passable but I wanted it to pop so when you looked at it you knew you were seeing glitter.

I use to make cut and paste cards so I had some glitter. Well this is what I discover...if I use double-sided tape on some paper and sprinkle glitter on it and then scan the results in to my computer as color swatches...I can use those swatches as patterns in PSP and paint with them. I tried it and guess what the glitter does show up! Now I have 24 different colors of glitter. Bring on the BLING!!



Just thought I share.

Hugs,
Jaggs
