Cant remember what the mix is but one of the loose glitter sellers at the craft shows has the mix that it's worth looking at artsamps/ichf to see what they're called & if they have a website.

I know you have already bought the glitter but would one of the glitter embossing powders match the colour (if not the name ... perhaps Joanna could have a wee look). If it was only a few cards I would suggest finding someone with really nice handwriting to use a glue pen for you, but I wouldn't want to do that on 550! Hope you find a solution.
