Glitz and Glitter




Lately, I have been using a great, great deal of glitter. It almost stands against every art principal that I was ever taught. (Glitter is taboo in art school after all.) Oh well, that was a long time ago and today, well today I love the way the glitter looks on the cards. It accents the colors and makes them pop. I think that sometimes letterpress is so precise and crisp that giving it a little glitz prevents it from become too stolid...

And well- it's glitter. It talks to the kid in me, to the part of me that wants to play in paints and get messy rather that keeping everything so pristine.



So enjoy the glitz...
