My Favorite New Thing

At Michael's I was pawing through all the Tim Holtz stuff and came upon a single package of Perfect Pearls. It must have been a return because there were no other selections of the Pearls nor any tags for them. I watched Tim's video on techniques for using them...and now they are my new favorite thing. I made a couple more ATC for the cruise using Tim's stamps, Distress Inks, brushing on the Pearls over the wet ink. These give such a great shimmer. Tim also uses the Pearls to make a shimmer mist liquid to spritz over your craft item. Ooooh, I gotta buy more colors. And a project isn't done until the backside is tizzied up a bit.

A friend gave me some of these, and I confess have not really played that much with them. She did mix them with some of the ink for me...makes such a pretty sparkly spray. Have fun!
