This is one of the easiest ways to use Pearl Ex - it's called Poppin' Pearls (click the link for a great tutuorial on SCS). I basically used Versamark ink to stamp the images and rubbed Pearl Ex powder into the ink.
-
The big blossom is stamped on Eggplant cardstock with Versamark. I rubbed Misty Lavender, Flamingo Pink, and Pearl White Pearl Ex onto the flower from the center outward. The background was embossed with my cuttlebug, then I gently rubbed versamark and Sapphire Pearl Ex. The same method was used for the flower center.

This card combines all 3 of the top choices from last week's challenge vote - I know Auntybarbara has been asking for a PURPLE card.... this one is for you!! I also know some of you have been looking for some cuttlebug ideas.

Don't forget that I'll be giving away one of my projects on Wednesday! All you need to do is leave a comment to get a chance to win! I'll let you in on my secret method of picking a winner.... First I ask my dh to pick a number between 1 and 7 (or however many posts I have that week), then I ask him to pick a number between 1 and however many comments that post received. So the easiest way to win is to leave a comment everyday!

Thanks for looking - have a great day - and please SEND ME YOUR PROJECTS to blog@clothingcorner.com!

Another georgous card! I am wondering though ... how do you keep the PE from rubbing off onto people's hands once it's done? Do you spay it with something?
Man that comment I just left is filled with typos! sorry!!! I need to preview first I guess.
I am so glad to see PE instructions. I have some and really don't know what to do with it. I will have to try it now. You are giving us a very pretty card for inspiration.
