Hello Sweet Friend...

Hi folks...I've been having a little fun with my Bird Crazy Friend and a brand new product to join the Distress family...Distress Micro-Glaze which Tim uses on this month's tag over at "12 Tags of 2015"
"Now there’s a way to seal your Distress projects with the new Tim Holtz® Distress Micro Glaze™. The perfect water resistant sealer for craft projects, Micro Glaze™ is ideal for sealing Distress Inks, Markers, Stain, Paint & more. Easy to apply, Micro Glaze™ dries to a smudge resistant, waterproof finish. Perfect for use on paper crafting projects, watercolors, and ink jet printing.
I stamped the Bird Crazy image with Black Archival...coloured with Distress Markers and used Distress Micro Glaze to create a circle halo effect around the bird and the flowers which were stamped with Fossilized Amber Distress Ink...then applied a watercolour wash of Fossilized Amber and voila...cool or what...

which is more than can be said for yesterday's effort...all because...well...let's leave that Bird Crazy catastrophe tale until tomorrow...in the meantime you can watch Tim's video on how to use Distress Micro Glaze HERE.
I can't wait for my Bird Crazy dies and Crazy Things to arrive from Inspiration Emporium and if you've been hunting the internet to get your hands on these elusive items...you can find them HERE....US Shipping is $5 and International $10 and if you use my code "allthatglitter" at checkout...you'll get 10% of your order.
Hugs Kath xxx

    Interesting. This is the first I'm hearing about distress glaze. Looks like a really great way to do some masking. Your card is adorable.

    The card looks super Kath.
    Does the glaze give much of a sheen or does it stay matt?...can't quite tell from the photo.
