I don't have the #ID for it but if you search for "for better of worse" I think you can find it. I adjust the phrase to fit in to my painting/canvas and then cutted it out in my Cameo 1 on vinyl.

Glitter on Wine Glass

Bild
Hi there, To highlight glass is a good way to make them special, and easy to, it just take some time to do it. I did these as a weeding present for my friend Johan and Somphit. Clean your glass with some alcohol, and mask them where you would like to have  the start of the glitter.  I useed ModPodge that was dishwaser-safe for glass.  And the glitter was from Silhouette, but next time I'm going to find some fine-grained glitter, which I think are going to look much better. I'm so sorry that I didn't took some pictures of how to put the glittter on.  But I know there is a lot of it on Youtube. I put a copypaper on my desk as a cover and also to save the glitter. Put Mod Podge on the glass with a brush,  Sprinkle the glitter on the glass while you roll the glass. Take the copypaper and put the glitter that are there back to the jar. Let it dry, just by following the instructions on the Mod Podge label. Repeat  step 2 - 5 at least 3 times.
