Hello! It’s Blog Hop week with Lawn Fawn, join us all week, and enter to win a fabulous prize through the Rafflecopter system each day! Be sure to visit Lawn Fawn for their fun projects and prize too!
AJ here to share a fun way to use pigment powders along with my favorite new sentiment stamps from Lawn Fawn!
I really love their cute patterned papers, so perfect for card making.
I thought I would try a different way to use the Pigment Powder- grab a small pile with your brush, and spray a *very* small amount of water next to it and mix.
You can make it the consistency you want by adding more/less powder to water ratio, I wanted it to be thicker to splat onto my card. It looks a bit like the consistency of mercury in the older thermometers beading up and clinging to itself.
Load up your brush and flick onto your card front. Repeat until desired look is achieved. I tried this with another project last week and it works awesome, but needs to be set. A light spray of cheap hairspray will do the trick if you don’t have a sealer of any kind.
I love the fun little texture it adds to my card base, and the slight shimmer to my stars!
Enter Here!

enjoy!

Very interesting blog post. I didn’t realize that you had other products besides adhesives. Love the powder and the tip with the hairspray. I will have to look up to see what an EZ stars refillable is…maybe like a stamp? Going to check it out.
Thanks for sharing with us.

Hi Lynn, we are introducing a link of mixed media products with Donna Salazar. Watch for those coming soon. The E-Z Stars is an adhesive runner, dispensing star shapes in double sided adhesive. This is not yet available, but keep watching the blog and our social media channels, we’ll shout out when we have it in stock!
