Perfect Pearls...

Hello hello dear lovely ladies! This is Deepti Stephens here on Color Conceptions blog. Yay! don't you love this?? :p. Yes! I'm absolutely loving and humbled by this honour. Thank you Priya for giving this wonderful opportunity to showcase and to share a few tips and techniques on your blog (many more in future).. 

Well.. ok..Today I'm here to share with you all a few tips and techniques about

Perfect Pearls

These perfect pearls are pigment powders that give a pearlascent finish on your project. The powders can be used in a variety of ways, however, perfect medium has been designed to work with perfect pearls and also it comes with a detail and dusting brushes.


Perfect medium is just like water mark ink. You can use any kind of 'embossing inks' with these perfect peals. But today I'll be using 'versamark ink' instead of Perfect Medium because versamark ink gives crisp image while stamping..

Here is the example..


And also I tried these 'perfect pearls' on different types of cardstocks like regular white cardstock, water color paper, black cardstock and on some vellum. After trying on all these papers I found that 'black cardstock' is best for these perfect pearls. 

Here is the example..


Okay! Today I'll be sharing 4 ways to use these Perfect Pearls. I hope many of you know these techniques but if you are new to crafting and wondering what's these perfect pearls?? then please go ahead and read the post and yeah! I have a video too and if you don't wanna read all this, skip this part and straightly go for the video (you can find it at the end).. :D

Four Ways To Use Perfect Pearls

1. Pouncing Perfect Pearls
a) Single Color
b) Multicolor

Note : To set the perfect pearls on to the paper just simply spray a little amount of water.
(watch the video for more details)

single color

Multicolor

2. Water-coloring with Perfect Pearls
a) Direct
b) with Distress ink
c) with Marker
d) with Gelatos


I love the coloring part with distress ink, marker and gelatos. But somehow I didn't like the look of Perfect Pearls directly on the white paper but it looks great on black cardstock.. I think the color on white is not that solid..

3. Flicking Perfect Pearls


Such a cool technique. you can create night sky, galaxy back grounds and snow fall back grounds etc by this technique..

4. Perfect Pearl Mist


It's so simple.. Take a little amount of water in your spritzer bottle, then pour a little amount of your desired perfect pearl powder and shake it well.. And that's it your mist is ready.

For more details please watch the video


I hope you like this post and I hope you got inspired! Thank you so much for stopping by and leaving me a comment.. Take care and I'll see you next time.. :)

Distress Ink Tags

Hello crafty people!!!
This is Tanvi with another post to inspire you all to use your distress inks. As you all know we have extended this theme for our challenge too because we thought there are loads of ways to use distress inks as Rajni says "Spread your wings with distress inks"
Before I move on to my post would like to inform you all that Priya & Poornima are unwell & hence have not been able to share their crafty ideas but they will both be back with a bang soon! Wishing you both a speedy recovery ladies...............get well soon, you are missed!!

Sharing two tags today & since Rajni has inspired us all so much to make gorgeous flowers, I too tried my hand at making blooms. These were stamped (penny black - petal party) & colored with distress inks.


I have used my favorite distress ink colors here - mustard seed, spiced marmalade & fired brick. One tip - invest in a craft sheet its definitely worth it, I see a lot of difference in distressing since I started using one.

  Isn't this a beauty!! See that glossy smooth shine..........wait for my next post for details.


These look stunning by mere coloring, wait until you feast on the next picture.............a little dash of perfect pearls over these & see the transformation!!!
  

These are the elements of the tag I made...............all with distress inks.
The white spots on the BG of the tag were obtained by using crayon resist & the gold spots (was not able to capture these well) by splattering with perfect pearls mixed with water. Distressing with vintage photo over the dry embossed CS also gave an amazing effect.


 Here is the finished tag - 


 And some close ups -  


 Super like this distressing on embossed CS - 


Also made another tag for the festive season in which I used perfect pearls on embossed CS. Gold over black an awesome combo.




I am enjoying using distress inks so much & hope you too are inspired to try the techniques.shared on this blog. All the products used here are available at THE CRAFT SHOP.
That's all for today.............will be back soon!! Do leave some love for us if you are inspired :-)

 You still have time to participate in our challenge & remember you can enter as many times as you wish!!
