Hey ladies, what have been your most fun accessories to demonstrate at workshops? My guests have loved beads on tacky tape...instant WOW! And the aquapainter is a hit also, love to use it with In Full Bloom. I've also sold a lot of beads and wire and tons of copper accessories.
aqua painter! my favorite... I am soooooo glad we have it now... although several of my customers already owned one... I sold two at stamp camp last week. love it!
I've never used an aquapainter before.. Actually never heard of it until it came out in the stampin' up catalog.. How does it work? I may need to give it a try.

An aquapainter is basically a paintbrush which holds it own water, so you don't have to keep "dipping". Works great with our watercolor pencils and "ink puddles"(is there a better way to refer to the push on lid and get some ink for painting thing??)
You can also fill it with future floor wax and paint with pearlex and it seals it. I love my aquapainter!!

Pearl Ex is my favorite..I love to see their eyes widen when I use it with the VersaMark!
This may be a real dumb question... but how is Pearl Ex different than embossing powders?
Pearlex is a very shimmery, pearly powder that is used mainly as an accent and adds alot of "zing" to images. It does not emboss on it's own, but can be mixed with clear embossing powder for a very cool look. It must be applied with a blender pen or aquapainter filled with future floor wax, or be sealed with a sealer or hairspray, or it will eventually come off.
