Liquid Pearls

[smallcity]

HI
I have been seeing liquid pearls for sale in loads of colors. How do you use these on paper. Are they similar to paint in a small bottle that you use on fabric. I think they are called dimensional paint. They look interesting, just curious if anyone has used them.

thanks

I have a few bottles in white, pink and light blue. I got them at Joanns and have used them as little dots on flowers.

I've also made little dots on the scallops of nesties on cards. They are sort of like Stickles only not glittery but pearlized. I think they just add a nice touch as an embellishment.

Did you get the liquid pearl On-line or in store locations of Joanns?

Hovering here to see what other ideas are out there. I just bought some liquid pearls from Blockheads on-line and was wondering if they are only used like Stickles are. There must be other uses for them. Hey, I bought several cause they looked really cool. DH likes that definition!

How long does it take for them to dry?

I purchased them as a set of three from the Joanns store when they had a lot of stuff on clearance so I'm not sure if they do still sell them there. I would prefer to buy them and stickles individually. I also got a three pack of Stickles in Js. They only had a few colors so I bought most of mine from Ebay.

As for other uses for them I'm sure that there are many but so far that's all I've used them for but they do add a lot of punch even just doing the dots. They come in a bottle just like Stickles with similar tip.

I have not waited long enough for them to dry and so I did ruin a few things by being impatient and smearing them. Like stickles it takes a while for them to dry. I wish I could tell you how long but never really timed it. I just let it sit for a few hours so I know that it is really dry.
