Marion,

Thank you so much for the "hint"! Do you know if you can achieve the same look using the homemade shimmer spray with the Perfect Pearls and reinkers? Just wondering...

Thanks for sharing.

I'm not sure Jill but I would say it's worth a try. I don't use perfect pearls so I really wouldn't know. I do know that the colorwash works great but doesn't have a shimmer.

Neat! Oh man, I want every color of that glimmer mist stuff. Really glad to know the sherbet dries light too. I would never give it a 2nd glance otherwise, but it comes out beautifully! So...do all the 'brighter" looking glimmer mists come out much lighter?

Thanks Marion! Glad to see you cranking out the videos again!

I'm really not sure if all of them come out that, but you have to get the sherbet, it is I would say the prettiest pink one they have. Ohhh get suede too that obe is my all time fave!

Love the idea of the bucket. I always have to take my projects outside to spray. The vintage look of the lace is awesome!!! Thanks for sharing. Hugs, T

I know I was that way too! Just make sure to stick an old rag in there to absorb the extras otherwise your project will soak up whateer colors you used previously and it turns out not so nice! :)

He he thanks! Yeah that's my favorite collection right now as well. I will be showing the mini soon if I ever get a chance to finish it!

Marion, thanks for sharing. Are we going to see more of the layout that you were working on, it looked like my favorite Graphic 45?? (and the tease that you gave us looked - AWESOME) I hope you will be doing more videos, I miss them. ~Brenda
