xylography
A printing technique that involves carving text in relief upon a wooden block. When inked, the impression is transferred to paper. The oldest known printed works were produced by this method in Japan and China during the 8th and 9th centuries. This method of wood-block printing appeared in Europe in the 14th century and eventually inspired Johannes Gutenberg to create type pieces out of metal.

I love Stickles because of its flexibility and durability. I only wish that they would bring back some of the old colors! I've tried other brands but Stickles still is the best glitter glue you can use for your projects. Pricing is great and delivery was quick, thank you Mister Art:)
