Coming up this fortnight is the final technique for 2014, Perfect Pearls Rainbow Effects. Another use for Perfect Pearls so that makes it 3 PP classes in a row! This class uses only the one colour though, the white one called Perfect Pearl. When it is mixed with water it makes a shimmery spray that can be spritzed onto a card that has been embossed with either black or white stamps, then coloured using Distress Ink Pads (make sure they are juicy as you need a lot of colour to stop it from washing off when you spray). It gives the card a lovely shimmery finish that is very subtle and can only be seen when the card is tilted towards the light. It certainly adds something extra to the beautiful colours of the Distress Ink backgrounds!
Once again, you can't see the shimmer in the samples below, so you'll just have to mix some up for yourself and try it out. Just a hint - contrasting colours of Distress Inks work best as opposed to colours that are too similar. You want the colours to run and bleed into each other, it will look too much the same colour unless there is some sort of contrast.

Finally the last sample from the Perfect Pearls Suede class from last fortnight.
Love the colour combination in this one!
