First you need some glitter: go here and get you some

 

Now open your glitter in Animation Shop most glitters have 3 frames select all the frames ( go to edit and select all) go back and copy

now open a new file 400 x 200 transparent bkg

 

 

click on the text tool and use vector (choose your font color don't matter)

use the deformation tool and move it and stretch it out so that is a big as you want it

 

go to layers and convert to raster layer

go to selections and select all---float---defloat

 

now do shift + d 2 times so that you have 3 frames of the text

 

(((at this point you will have 3 text frames and 3 glitter frames)))

 

click on the flood fill bucket

 

go to your color palette and chosse pattern and in there find glitter 1

fill 1 of your text frames with this

 

right click and copy and take this frame and paste in Animation Shop
