I have no idea, sentence redo

Sam, our typography tutor, suggested I try spot varnish on the letterpress for the next working stage of my sentence.
I was really pleased with the way this came out! Even though, he didn’t want me to go back to actual smashed glass, I decided I liked it to much to listen. So, I ended up spot varnishing the text, printed by Ian and gluing the glass onto the paper that was adhered to mount board.

I like the spot varnish because it gave it a lovely shimmery effect, and you could hardly see it depending on the light. I decided I would stay with this technique for my paragraph and page of text projects.
