Question

Answer 1

You can buy sheets of double sided tape. Cut out the shape of your ball and lay it over the image on your card. Remove the backing and shake glitter over the tape. Voila! All done.

You can also use this technique and use multiple colors of glitter by not removing the entire backing. Just score it with an exacto knife where you want "white" and put white on there. Remove the remainder of the backing and put "red" there... etc.

Hope this is what you are looking for.

Answer 2

I use a product called Sparkle Glaze on almost everything I make. You can get it at any craft store like Michaels or Hobby Lobby. Walmart might even have it. It comes in a bottle and can be found by the bottles of acrylic paints. It adds a clear iridescent sparkle. I know it does come in other colors,but this color works with everything. You just paint it on with a paint brush.The lable says it works on wood,paper mache,plaster,and paper. You can also get glitter glue that comes in a tube almost like a pen.

Answer 3

You can lightly brush some watery glue onto the balls and shake on some glitter, then let it dry.
