I set Perfect Pearls with far less water. I learned from a (really old) Ranger video with Debbie Tlach to lightly spritz water in the air and waft the "pearled" cardstock through the mist. After 3 light sprays the Perfect Pearls are set, the cardstock is barely damp and no heat gun needed.
That's how i set mine too. just the tiniest mist.
I’ve done that, too. It just needs a little water to set the gum Arabic so the powder doesn’t rub off the card.
Everyone! Be careful when brushing off the excess please! It is such a fine powder that it goes into the air. Alexandra is standing so hopefully she is far enough away that she is not breathing it in. 💙 I watched a demo once where there was a bright light shining on the area and I was off to the side and could see the powder going right into the demonstrator's face. We have to respect all of these wonderful products as we enjoy using them. 💙
Thank you for that info . (keep in mind that happens smell particles fly in the air when ladies are putting on powder make up )
I’ve been using Perfect Pearls for years. I made up a watercolour palette with them, using Tim Holtz’s palette. I put some Perfect Pearls powders in each section and then added a small amount of water, mixed it in and left it to dry. I now have dry pans to use like regular watercolours. I printed an acetate sheet to go inside the lid with the names of the colours so it lines up when the box is closed. My favourites are the dichroic ones that change colour according to the angle you look at them. I also mix some Perfect Pearls in water in a spritzer and spray a lovely shimmery background. I haven’t seen the layering technique before so that’s another one to add to my arsenal! So nice to see someone using these - they don’t feature much in people’s techniques, which I think is a shame, because they are so versatile. They are mixed with a soluble gum which sets them once you wet them - this makes them much easier to use than regular metallic powders.
Shoshi Platypus Excellent! Thx for the tips. Kelly Latevola, an expert Copic colorist, uses them for almost every project. Check out her cool, relaxed channel, too.
Harmony Rose Lane Thanks! Just visited her channel and watched an awesome video of her doing a background with Distress Oxides and painting with copics and Perfect Pearls. Just gorgeous! Lots of ideas.
OMG i have 2 pallets i dom't use, what a brilliant idea, thx so much!!
@@Pebblesmas My pleasure. Not my original idea (can’t remember who it was but I found it years ago online). You can also do the same thing with alcohol inks. Just drip the inks into the sections on the palette and let them dry. You reactivate them with a brush filled with alcohol - I think my brush is a Ranger alcohol ink brush? Again, can’t remember. Anyway, use it like a water brush. You can pick up the dried alcohol ink on the brush and paint with it. This gives you a lot more control than the usual method of applying alcohol inks. A while back I used this method to paint the sections of some butterflies I’d cut out of acetate - the result was brilliant. Have fun!
@@ShoshiPlatypus Hello, I don't have alcohol inks and not going to buy them ;-), but thx 4 that idea. But regarding the perfect pearls and the Tim Holtz pallet, after reading your comment, I found a video that said that after the perfect pearls (she put them in a china pallet) would dry up, you could not activate them anymore.... but you say you can reactivate them, right ? thanx 4 replying to my message, so nice to hear from you. Have a lovely day, greetings.
Thank you so much for this very informative video! I’ve had my perfect pearls for many years and never really utilized in my scrapbooking or card making because I just didn’t know how but now I have five methods that I can add to my arsenal! This video is amazing!
I have mica powders that seem to do all the same things except for being set with water. I just use cheap hair spray instead. Thanks for the reminder of this fun medium.
Wonderful ideas! Thank you very much for inspiring me to dig out my perfect pearls from 2009/2010! Love making use of things I already have! Another idea is to use the Black Perfect Medium on the black paper when doing the lifting technique... the results are a deep, rich black quote! 😄😍😉
I was introduced to Pearls about 20 years ago now, the first craft workshop I ever did showed us the lift technique. I still have the card I made somewhere using it with the sentiment stamp!
You can also use Versamark if you don't have the mini perfect pearls pad :)
Sis!!!! I’ve been scrapping and carding for years......I’ve never thought of some of these ideas! Sweeeeeeet! Happy Valentines Day!!
This video came to the top for me, so I really wanted to see what you did with the Perfect Pearls. I have some really old ones and now want to give it a try! Thank you for the inspiration.
Ooooo! I love them but often forget. Thanks! Tip from an old (and retired) art teacher, hairspray works very well for setting things like Perfect Pearls and pastels.
LOVE watching all your videos. You are so CREATIVE and concise easy instructions. I have had these in my stash, never used, but now I am inspired Thank you.
Love your video! Simone Hurley did a similar video a couple of weeks ago and I couldn’t believe the things you can do with perfect pearls. I’ve had these for ever and have only used them to rub over embossed card previously 😂 Great techniques!
I like to tap the brush over the surface and let the powder sprinkle onto the cardstock. I find it gives a softer edge when blending colours. I forget where I saw it done but it gives a more uniform coverage of powders and the where the colours come together is a nicer transition. Thanks for the reminder to get out my perfect pearls.
Thanks for sharing all those techniques. I love Perfect Pearls, but I didn't know many ways to use them.
The lift technique, I had not tried. Love it! I Love using dark paper and embossing types of projects ❤❤❤
I believe I NEED THAT stamp set! I see about 20 ideas, already! Lovely set!
Looks like fun. I didn't even know what perfect pearls were until i watched this video.
Love perfect pearls but never think to use them. The last two techniques new to me and I just love it. Have to try it today. Thanks for sharing and I would love to see other techniques as well.
Fun to look back and remind myself to use Perfect Pearls again.
The moon card is absolutely stunning! 👍😀
I didn’t realize you could do so many things with perfect pearls. I’m going to give it a try.
Omg! I've had a whole set of Perfect Pearls and never used it! Breaking it out asap!
Thanks for this video, my crafting supplies were in storage for 7 years after I moved to Canada, and I had forgotten what to do with the perfect pearls. My Tim Holtz distress inks were still as good as when they were packed.
I also used hairspray to set my perfect pearls. Thank you for the video, I have had mine for sometime, and only used a couple of time because I didn't know what to do with them. Now I will.
So cool! I did not know much on perfect pearls.
i have tons and tons of perfect pearls .... wow i have had them for years.. love you video gotta get home and true some of these techniques. thanks for sharing
Ive watched this a few times and I still love that last card
Thank you for sharing these techniques for using Perfect Pearls, they're a wonderful and versatile medium! HUGS & HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!!
You are sooo smart and talented! Thank you for sharing all your tips!
Very informative, I have them but have never used them. Tfs.
Excellent start to finish tutorial. So many wonderful techniques. Thank you. Wishing you a super week. Hugs Susan
Thanks for the perfect pearls reminder. Now I want to dig mine out.
Great ideas. Thank you. Perfect Pearls work very well with Versa Mark or any other sticky (embossing ink).
Thank you for those tips. I enjoy your videos! Its time to get out the perfect pearls again.
Wow I will find my perfect pearls and start using them again thank you. Cheers Lee
loved all the tips for perfect pearls but I just have to say I loved your nails. Very pretty
Could you please do some scrapbooking videos? Layout ideas, mediums, etc... thanks!!!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Enjoying the video but ...... I have to say I'm a little distracted by your nails -- they're FAB!!!!! Kind of reminds me of the Alcohol Pearls colors😊! Now I have to rewatch the video & try to focus on those awesome tips.... so I can beg my hubby for some more Perfect Pearls colors (& Letter It stamps too). Thanks Alex😉🤗
Your celestial card is just beautiful!!
Versa Mark works just as well as perfect medium as does an Essential Glue pad.
Thanks for the video--I have PP and haven't used them much but I love the look. If it is set with water, what is the best way to clean your stamps and stencils?
Great job!!! I want the other 45 please!!
What is the name of the press you use please? Awesome video!
Spectacular! thanks for sharing
Love all the ideas. What is the name of the big brush you use to clean up each piece after adding the Perfect Pearls? Thanks.
I'm not even a minute in, but, know you read, so, wanted to share. I had never heard of perfect pearls, until about 5 or so years ago. I simply didn't pay attention. I felt stamping was cheating for a long time as an artist- I think, because it's Not MY image- I grabbed the starter set, and loved them, and bought a Big Set of PearlEx!! OOPS! So. I have All of this PearlEx, and it's Not Exactly what I had intended.
Now... I use AND Love Both products. I just buy extra clear embossing powders, and make my own colors. However... I DO Love the versatility of perfect pearls. I thought I'd scored a massive set of perfect pearls- I'm just glad it wasn't "wasted money" lol... and, thank you in Advance for sharing your techniques.
The blended circle card is my favorite. Love the idea of using more than one color at once!!!!
Thanks for sharing!!
FIRST your hair is super cute. Secondly... that huge fan brush is something I really want to have. Is the link for it there? If not where can I snag it?
TFS...keep the videos coming...blessings dear one 🙏🏼
Thanks for sharing.
So glad I watched this, I now know how to use them!!I
Where can I get that HUGE brush to brush the excess off??💗
Have had trouble with perfect medium pads crumbling
Me too.
Oh my... lol. I need to go look at the store!
Really cool ideas.
I have a ton of these and never used them? I will now!🌟🌹🌟🌹🌟🌹🌟🌹
Where can I buy the Love you to the moon and back stamp? I have been unable to find one. Thank you
Love perfect pearls!
Some great ideas.
I have all but like 2 sets and now I want to get them out again. The perfect medium will rot the pads though, my first several pads disintegrated after light use and prolonged storage. I've never had any other pad do that.
mine did the same thing!
Yeah its because of the medium.
Can you use this product on for. Rock painting
Awesome tutorial! But I can’t help saying I love your hair and your nails
Hi. Thank you for the video. I had a couple of questions. I just tried this last week but it still rubs off some after spritzing it with water. Should I just use more water? I thought I put plenty as it is. I was trying not to over saturate it. And also, my paper was left with powder all over the paper besides my image even after trying to clean it off with a cloth. It’s not coming clean like yours. Any other suggestions? Thank you!
Marilyn Garcia for the left over powder try an anti static tool. For the setting try more water. Even coating even one or two coats so you don’t over saturate and it runs. Hairspray works well too
The Hedgehog Hollow thank you so much!
What do you use to clean the stamp?
Why is the tape on your Misty mat?
Hi! I have stopped using the perfect medium because the pads keep degrading. They kind of rot. I’m not sure if it is our weather...
fionna wheatley I’ve had mine for years and it’s fine. Try a glue ink like clear mark
Amazing just learnt about perfect pearls tonight..... Now been on ebay and all arrives by the weekend
. 😂
Hello big like 28 thanks for this good video see you soon
