How do you use Stamp 'N Bond with glitter?

Stamp 'N Bond is designed to act as a glue when you want to apply glitter or flocking to your entire stamped image.

For best effect, work with more solid images

1. Stamp your image with a Versa Colour pigment ink or Versa Mark ink. Using coloured ink will enhance opacity while using Versa Mark will enhance transparency of the glitter.
2. Sprinkle Stamp 'N Bond generously on the ink and shake off excess. Lightly heat the image with a heat tool JUST until it turns clear. Be very careful not to overheat. Once the Stamp 'N Bond is clear, it is like a glue.
3. Quickly sprinkle glitter over the image. Wait 30 seconds for the Stamp ‘n Bond to cool, and shake off excess.

Hint: Use a Craft Catcher to help recapture excess glitter, flocking and embossing powder. Bonus; your work area will be much easier to clean up!
