I find the glitter powder are more finicky to use than the regular embossing powders. I think, in the case of the regular ones, all the powder melts and binds itself to the paper but with the glitter it is a mix of glitter, and binding agent trying to hold the glitter on. Even when I get good coverage with the glitter emboss it is never as three dimesional feeling as the regular powders are.

       In addition, I find the Versamark pen is not as effective as the Verse mark ink pad, applied with a stamp, in my experience at least.
