I didn't think I was going to be able to do this challenge, because I got rid of all my Pearl Ex a while ago (totally kicking myself for that). However, I found a pre-made bottle from a class I did ages ago. This one has hairspray and gold pearl ex powder in it. Man, is it hard to photograph it; but I think you can just barely see the shimmer on the leaves and flowers. It's there...I promise! Thanks Beth for making me pull this out of my stash...gonna play with it some more for sure!
Accessories: Aqua Painter, Ticket Corner Punch, Small Oval Punch, Rhinestones, Vanilla Taffeta, Sponges, CuttleBug Embossing Folder (on tabs...hard to see in photo), Shimmer Spray (Gold Pearl Ex mixed with hairspray), Dimensionals
