Make It Monday - Glitter Strips with Scor-Tape

I'm having a lot of fun playing along with the Make It Monday challenges on Nichole Heady's blog. Click here to see more details.
This week's challenge is to use a glitter strip on your project using scor-tape. Here's what I made:


I put the glitter strips on the egg. I die cut the egg. Used two different widths of scor-tape and trimmed them around the egg. I really like how it turned out. 

The glitter sticks to the scor-tape so well, I wondered what would happen if I did the same technique using glue-dots. That's what I did with the butterfly.


Thanks for taking a look!

    I love the use of the scor-tape for the stripes on the egg. Your colors are so nice and springy. Much needed at this time of year.
