Amazing, not my intention, it just came out that way.

Here is a variation where I'm trying to create a bigger sparkley look rather than a glitter-sparkle effect.
I made a quickshapes star >duplicated it many times>grouped> created a bitmap copy> then filled the cloned copy of the text with the bitmap.

Here is a technique I use, I found some metal flake paint chips, I copy paste, group and scale the chip until I have enough to cover my text. Then I use the arrange / combine shapes / slice shapes to cut the chip.
