The Glittered Poppleberry

Good crafty afternoon! So today is a step by step of decorating a tile. I stacked and glued some thick cardstock to make the tile thick and heavy. For the base of the tile I'm using a piece of kitchen roll I used to mop up a different project. I glued these two thick cardstock squares ontop of eachother using collall glue.
