Creative Chemistry - Day 9 Homework

Perfect Pearls - I just adore these.  I desire more colours!  I think they are some of the best shimmer sprays on the market.  So, I was very happy to have a go at Day 9.  Again, some challenges for me but overall, pretty happy with the results.  Enjoy!

Tag 1 - Perfect Distress Mist

Not as awesome as Tim's BUT I was only working with one mini mister.  The additional colours on this tag come from Perfect Pearl Mists.  So the green and blue combination on the tag were the technique.  I really need to get "stadium seating" and the misters that go with it!

Tag 2 - Perfect Distress

Love the shimmer but I didn't get the wicking effect as I was working with a spray bottle that just hasn't got a fine enough spray!  I will have to do this again with a proper misting bottle.

Tag 3 - Perfect Splatter Distress

I. Love. This. Tag.  It's hard to see but those splotches of blue, green and red are the Perfect Pearls.  But aside from the awesome shimmer - I love the colours!  So will be using this background again.

So, tomorrow will be the post for Day 10 and the class will be finished but I hope to be making some cards using these techniques in the next week or two!

Have a great weekend all and to those travelling, drive/fly safe.

Creative Chemistry - Day 4 Homework

Right!  So Day 4 has been all about re-inkers.  I don't have any Distress Re-Inkers (one of the things on my long list of desires) so I played with what I had which in this case was a limited range of Stampin' Up re-inkers.  I only had one mini mister too so I used the Glimmer Mists and Smooch Sprays that I had along with one mix of re-inker and water.  For the final tag, no Cut n' Dry Felt either!  I had this mounting board that was styrofoam in the middle with a cover on both sides.  I peeled back the cover and gave the soft fabric uncover a try.  It was marginally successful - another item to add to the list!  All in all, considering the substitutions I made, I am quite please with the results - and I learned heaps!

So here they are:

As usual, there are close ups too:

Tag 1 is Watercolouring with Re-Inkers.  There is actually a light colour wash over the tag which is hard to see.

Tag 2 is Layered Misting.

Tag 3 is Custom Stamp Pad.

I was hoping to get Day 5 done as well so that I would be up to date but I have found that I NEED the manilla tags that I have ordered.  So far, I've been able to get away with plain card stock but the last two techniques for Day 5 just didn't work because the paper disintegrated under the water.  So, I hope I can get Day 5 and Day 6 up tomorrow night!
