Thanks for the tip! I'll give it a go - although I'm wondering if the corn starch will dull the shine a little. There's only one way to find out ... :)
Love this application of pigment powders. I never thought of making paint with them, but I would be more inclined to use my Brusho powders if they were in a pallet to use as watercolors.
So very helpful!! I love that you share different products and tell us how to use what we have!! I like videos that are not trying to get me to buy a certain product!! Your card was beautiful!! Thanks again!!
Super pretty! I appreciate the inclusion of the flakes. I seem to always think there’s A WAY everything is supposed to be done (silly, I know), and I would have thought I should break down the flakes to be more background-ish. Yours are so much prettier! Thank you, Natalie! 😊
Great video! I've had pigment powders in my stash for many years but have never used them! This gives me inspiration to give them a try. Thanks for sharing your knowledge
I bought a Ken Oliver colour burst set years go and have only used them a couple of times. This series is going to be great in helping me try out new techniques with them. Thanks in advance!
FABULOUS start to the new series!!! I have lots of Pearl Ex powders from years ago. Thank you for reminding us that other types of pigment powders can be used by just adding a binder. I really appreciate that your videos offer us alternatives so we can use what we have. And I love the look of your gilding flakes mixed with the pigment powders! Looking forward to new ideas and techniques. Thank you! 🩷 (and your card is beautiful!)
@@nancyglaspie6735 Me too! I've had great success with lots of different binders on different projects - gum arabic, gel medium, Triple Thick, clear gesso, clear glue - can't wait to see this series!
This is fabulous. Actually, I'm embarrassed to say that I've never used them dry. I've always wet them or put them in sprayers. This turned out beautiful!
Thank u for the great information Natalie. U truly are an artist. The card you made was amazing! I just hope Im able to create beautiful cards like you. Im looking forward to the next video.
You can stamp with the stamp pad that comes with the perfect pearls. Or try the versamark. Stamp the clear ink and swipe the perfect pearls on top. Let dry and wipe of with a soft clean cloth.
Perfect Pearls contain pigment, mica and a built in resin that makes them easy to use wet and dry. Check out the Ranger website for more info. I don't have any, but it sounds like they will work the same as the powders I've shown in this video. x
Beautiful card Natalie I am definitely going to get out my perfect pearls and have a play now. I'm thinking of using glue I purchased to adhere gilding flakes fingers crossed it works x
🙋🏻♀️ I scrolled through a lot of the comments and didn’t see my question, so hopefully I’m not making you answer it again. On the glue tests, with the double sided tape, couldn’t you just add some more pigment powder to take away the residual stick? This video has been extremely informative and helpful, thanks 🙏
Beautiful card and great idea. I have the Pixie Shimmer Powders and find that they “shed” (release the sparkle). Even spraying with hairspray didn’t help. Is it just me or does anyone else have the same problem with the Pixie Shimmer Powders?
It depends on the brand and what they put in their powders? Some mica powders only contain mica (the shiny stuff) but some will contain pigment as well. Check out the manufacturer's website to see what yours contain. x
Mica powders may just contain mica - I think they're meant to be mixed with other things like resin. If you have mica powders, check out the manufacturer's website to see what's in them and how to best use them. :)

I absolutely love the simplicity of your cards, but also have a ton of tips and tricks!

If you go over the sticky hearts with your cornstarch pillow, it de-sticks them. Love this, tfs❤
I wanted to say that too😊
Thank you!
Looking forward t9 part 2

Thanks, Angela! x
I love the colors you used together. And the gold foil really makes those hearts pop. Gorgeous!
Thank you so much!
I like the zig because the texture of the glue strokes shows. And now I'll need to dig out the powders I haven't used and play with them!
Great! Have fun. x

Add velum over the sticky hearts
Nice idea, although that would mute the metallic sparkle. x
Great card Natalie and I'm going to get my brushos out over the weekend and have a play.
Fab! Have fun. x

Thank you for sharing this video. I have the Perfect Pearls but didn't know how to use them 😮😊
Glad it was helpful!
You can stamp with the stamp pad that comes with the perfect pearls. Or try the versamark. Stamp the clear ink and swipe the perfect pearls on top. Let dry and wipe of with a soft clean cloth.
How do perfect pearls fit into these powders? Love your videos
Perfect Pearls contain pigment, mica and a built in resin that makes them easy to use wet and dry. Check out the Ranger website for more info. I don't have any, but it sounds like they will work the same as the powders I've shown in this video. x
Fantastic video, Natalie. I'm now inspired to use the product that's been sitting in my craft room for a while.
Glad it was helpful!

0R YOU COULD DUST WITH A LITTLE TALC
Wauw, love it
Thank you! x
More to play with…thanks
Great! Have fun. x
Thank you for all your very informative videos.What texture paste did you use in this video when mixing it with pigment powders?
I have Liquitex Light Modelling Paste which is pretty quick drying and translucent. Any white texture paste would work though. Thanks for watching! x
@@nbcascards many thanks for the reply so much to learn but great fun.
Lovebit
Thanks! x
Beautiful card and great idea. I have the Pixie Shimmer Powders and find that they “shed” (release the sparkle). Even spraying with hairspray didn’t help. Is it just me or does anyone else have the same problem with the Pixie Shimmer Powders?
Thanks! Maybe add some gun arabic, or gel hairspray into your spray bottle. :)
Are the pigment powders the same as mica powder ?
It depends on the brand and what they put in their powders? Some mica powders only contain mica (the shiny stuff) but some will contain pigment as well. Check out the manufacturer's website to see what yours contain. x
Where can I buy that pigment powder?
I bought the Luscious Powders direct from IndigoBlu. The Cossmic Shimmer Pixie Powders, I got from Hobby Craft. The others were second-hand.
Can you use any sort of glue for this technique?
It needs to be a glue that’s tacky when dry, like the ones I showed in the video.
@@nbcascards I see many thanks I’m still learning.
How do mica powders fit in? Do they not have pigments or binder in them?
Mica powders may just contain mica - I think they're meant to be mixed with other things like resin. If you have mica powders, check out the manufacturer's website to see what's in them and how to best use them. :)
