This week for Fabulous Friday Fun I am continuing on with last weeks projects using Liquid Pearls. I came up with so many examples of ways to use it that I had to break it into two posts. HERE is last weeks post and on to this weeks post.
I have these large flowers that are not paper but more like a Mulberry paper but a little bit stronger. For the first idea, I used the White Opal and a rubber background stamp by Hero Arts.
I sprayed a blob of Liquid Pearls with water and painted it onto the stamp.
I placed the flower on the stamp and pressed down onto the stamp. This is the fun look that I got.
The second flower I painted with just white opal Liquid Pearls. After it dried I used platinum pearls mixed together with a couple drops of ink from a Ranger Industries re-inker, color aged mahogany, on wax paper.
I used my paint brush to mix the two together
Then I added more Platinum Pearls to make the mixture thicker.
I painted the petals of the flower lightly with the mixture to get the following look.
Combining the flowers together along with a circle die cut and an epoxy sticker I layered them on to a journal box. Here is a close up of the flower. I like the way the Liquid Pearls add color and texture to the flowers.
For the third flower, I used the same mixture as above on a clear background stamp.
Here I painted the background stamp.
Place the flower on top of the stamp to transfer the image.
Here is the flower after being stamped.
The stamped image didn't transfer completely but I was able to use the flower on a card.
Using a snowflake sticker and a rhinestone for the center I was able to hide the imperfection.
There is another Liquid Pearl aspect to this card. I heat embossed snowflake stamps using clear embossing powder. I wanted to see if the Liquid Pearls would resist an embossed image. Adding a few spritzes of water to the Liquid Pearls and painted the patterned paper.
Thankfully the sun was shining the day I took these photos. You can really see the snowflakes pop off the paper in these shots.
Well, that's all I have for you today. I hope you have enjoyed the different ways to use Liquid Pearls.
Thanks for looking.

Cindy, Cindy, Cindy, WOWZAS! This is an awesome technique with a beautiful end result!
I am sitting here laughing my butt off right now because I left a silly comment at IDIC thinking I was at your personal blog. I hope they don't mind my sense of humor over there. Anyway, I got my supplies today and can't wait to try one or many techniques you have shared over the last few weeks!!!
:O)

p.s. Can you use the Perfect Pearls in place of the liquid pearls you used here?
