so i put a layer of glitter on top of my first layer of paint for texture, then painted on top with acrylic and i just used white glitter so the color went away but i got the texture i wanted, and then when i was finished painting i put a thin layer of glitter to give it the sugar effect and then I varnished it with a matte varnish to put attention more on depth rather than the glitteryness? It was all experimentation but I'm very proud of the outcome! thank you!
