Oh my word I think I'm obsessed with STICKLES lately. Anyone else? Plus all the fun glitter letters that are out...I think Thickers were going to be coming out in some fun new styles as well.

I'm totally obsessed with glitter. I love my Stickles but I really wish they would come up with a base that would dry quicker! It never fails that I'll touch a dot of stickles and smear it, even after 1/2 and hour of drying.
I do like using a glue pen and SU irridescent ice to add bits of glitter. This dries much quicker!

Glitter Thickers?? Now I could use some of those for sure. I love my Thickers. I don't use a lot of Stickles because it does take too long to dry, but I love the Quickie Glue pen with some glitter. Works like a dream!
I don't use stickles to much but I do use the glue pen and dazzling diamonds.
When I do use stickles, I set the card under a lamp, with a regular light bulb and it seems to dry faster.

I only have a few bottles of stickles but I love them because they're so quick and fast and easy. NO mess.
HOwever, I really love the Martha Stewart glitter. Fine glitter...and the colors are soo pretty!
I don't have any Martha Stewart glitter, better go find some!
I love your avatar btw!

The MS glitter is what I was collecting with the M coupons since I really didn't want anything at M's.

I love stickles but my main shimmery obsession is Sakura pens that adds the perfect amount of glimmer to stamped images...I have 4 of those crazy clear glitter pens and love 'em to pieces. Someone sent them to me as a gift and I was instantly hooked.
Oh and I love Twinklette's pens too...I tend to grab the simpliest form of glitter possible that gives me the best bling. I have and love stickles but tend to use them for pages that I can set aside and go to the next page. I'm not that patient with cards and such.

I love Stickles too and I have some little tubes o the Art institute glitter too. There is something about that glitter that is different than all other glitters. I love the glitter gel pens too and I like my Glitz Spritz's I have as well.

I have tons of stickles but I hate waiting for them to dry, honestly for that reason alone I never use them. Art Institue glitter is my absolute FAV...I think I have about 25 different colors. I think the Martha S stuff is great too, but I only have 3 colors of that! And of coarse I will never let go of my SU dazzling diamonds!

I like using stickles on my transparency stamping! LOVE the aqua & purple! Never heard of art inst. glitter. I LOOOOVE ME SOME THICKERS lol!! I just bought 3 packs of the ones w/ the curly font. I sand them,paint,add glossy medium then, glitter,then once dry another coat gloss. That way it sets the glitter.

I agree whole heartedly. It could have a base like crystal effects or other lacquer adhesives... I've mixed the two, but it's inconvenient.

I love Stickles! Just as Michelle said, they need to dry faster. More times than not, I've lightly touched it to see if it's dry; and it's not!
As for glitter, I absolutely love the ultra fine gliltter from Stampendous! The colors are vibrant and and container is easy to store.
