DT Inspiration ...... Using Perfect Pearls with your stencils

Happy Thursday ......

It's Linda here, with a fun way of using your Uniko stencils, and Perfect Pearls.

We all have them .... little pots of pretty pearlescent powders that don't see the light of day very often, well mine don't anyway.

I was inspired to use them for a recent blog challenge and I've been reminded how gorgeous these powders can look, especially on black or dark cardstock.  They're so easy to use too ......


I used the Uniko Balloon Bash stencil for this birthday, or party design.

Using a sponge I applied Versamark ink through the stencil, and then brushed the Perfect Pearl powders over the top.


The colours I used were Mint, Pink Gumball, Turquoise and Sunflower Sparkle ...... really pretty pastel shades with great shimmer.

I used a soft brush to dust off any excess powder and then gently polished over the card using a soft tissue


I mixed a little of the Perfect Pearl powders with some water and then splattered the colour onto the background using a paintbrush


I used a silver gel pen to draw the strings on the balloons, and finished with a simple sentiment from the Uniko Birthday Wishes Clear Stamp Set, stamped onto a snippet of white card and cut into a banner shape.

Go on ....... give your Perfect Pearls a go, and see just how pretty they can look.

Thanks for popping by ..... enjoy the rest of your day.

Cheerio until next time ......
