Liquid Pearls

The remainder of the perfect pearls has arrived and is on the shelves. You can buy 4 perfect pearls in various colour collections. Choose from soft subtle purples, blues and greens, warm rich tones or faux metal.

Liquid Pearls™, a product by Ranger Industries, is a versatile, waterproof pearlescent paint specifically designed for paper craft projects. It comes in small squeeze bottles that have a built in easy flow tip that you directly apply to your projects.
Many paper crafter's use liquid pearls in place of adhesive pearls because they are better value for money, they can be applied in various sizes and in difficult to reach places. Simply squeeze out little drops of the liquid
paint and allow to dry for a wonderful, shimmery card or page accent.

Off The Page Shadow Box Class

WOW.....This is a must do.....If you have ever wondered "How do they do that"? Then this is the class for you.

"I love this shadow box, it was so much fun to make and the colours are just to die for.. There is so much creative freedom with Off The Page projects, your not just limited to a 12x12 page that way. And most layouts just end up in a album and never looked at which I find extremely sad." said Cassie the teacher and creator of this wonderful class .

You will make your own 12" Shadow Box to keep yourself or give as a perfect Christmas Gift.

You will use a variety of Graphic 45 papers to create your backgrounds and embellishments. You will learn how to create your own flowers, learn how to fussy cut, learn how to colour your flowers to blend in with your page and use products such as glimmermist and crackle paint.

I love the Copic markers - vibrant colours, so many uses - and I am in love with the airbrushing!!
I managed to complete 1 image on the day and she is so cute - can't wait to make her into a card. You will find a link to blog on the sidebar. Please visit my blog to check out my latest cards.....
