I also outlined my heart, star and text boxes with my new favorite art glitter #337 Challis.  I used the Art Glitter Designer dries clear Glue and Ultra fine Metal Tip to glue down my pieces and outline areas for glittering.
I inked all my edges with Ranger's Vintage Photo distress ink (then covered it with glitter...lol...so what was the point...hmmm...silly me).  I love how the candies look when they are inked!!  As well as the Air Mail Baker's twine bow!

Topped it off with the seam binding bow and red diagonal ribbon tie.  
One last look at the finished tag below.
