Stamping and Perfect Pearls
September 15th, 2008 by LazyKayI went to a workshop on Saturday at my local craft shop.
We were given some lovely pearlised paper for the card insertes, onto which the demonstrator stamped the sentiment using a Versamark Watercolour pad. She then sprinkled gold Perfect Pearls over, let is ‘set’ for a second and brushed off the excess. The powder which had settled around the text was wiped off with a piece of kitchen roll. One lady did this with the sentiment on the front of one of the cards on navy card and wow did it pop! I was really impressed with the effect and it’s not something I’d have thought of doing.

I love this idea Kay, it worked so well. I have used chalks but never thought of using Perfect Pearls, especially on dark card!

Kay – thank’s for sharing this – not something I’d have thought of, though.
