The Tim Holtz Distress Liquid Tinsel collection is a fantastic way to bring a little vintage glamour and beautifully textured sparkle to your creative projects!

The unique adhesive-based formula makes glitter application easier and more controlled, allowing you to add shimmering details exactly where you want them without the mess of traditional loose glitter.

Use the Fine glitter varieties to create delicate highlights, soft metallic accents and subtle shimmering backgrounds, or reach for the Chunky finishes when you want bold texture and eye-catching sparkle.

The gorgeous timeworn metallic colours pair beautifully with Tim Holtz Distress Inks, vintage papers, botanical illustrations, Christmas ephemera and other mixed media supplies, making them a wonderful addition to your creative collection.

They're especially lovely for adding festive sparkle to Christmas cards, decorating vintage ornaments, highlighting journal embellishments or creating textured accents on mixed media artwork.

How to Use

1. Using a small paintbrush, apply Liquid Tinsel directly to your chosen surface.

2. Spread or dab the medium to create your desired glitter effect.

3. Allow to dry naturally. As the translucent adhesive dries, it shrinks and leaves behind a beautifully textured metallic glitter finish.

4. Clean brushes, tools and work surfaces with water immediately after use.

Creative Tip: Experiment with layering Fine and Chunky Liquid Tinsel to create beautiful variations in sparkle and texture. Try adding small touches to vintage embellishments, decorative borders or festive details for a gorgeous shimmering finish!
