Radient Pearls vs. Twinks

[SuziNuke]

I feel kinda dumb asking this, but if anyone can answer this you ladies can! I just did a Google search on Radiant Pearls...Found LOTS of info but no place to buy them. Also, the search led me to the Twinkling H2Os... Are they the same? Did one replace the other? Where can you buy RPs????
I need MORE SPARKLE!!!;) I love PE, but it's just not enough......:twisted:
Thanks!

Hmmm, it appears that Radiant Pearls may have been discontinued! I see they are available on e-Bay, but I couldn't find them anywhere else for purchase. Luminarte was the manufacturer, but they also manufacture the Twinkling H20's, which are wonderful. Here's the Luminarte link, where you can see ALL the colors available (144 of them!) and also purchase them: http://www.luminarteinc.com/catalog/twinkling-h20s.html

And this is a link to a site with wonderful tutorials, many specifically for Twinkling H20's: http://ephesian25stamps.homestead.co...rialindex.html

Hope that helps!

They are two different products made by the same company. I first started buying the twinkling H2Os and they are basically a dry paint that you spray with water. The water softens the pigments and you can apply it with a paint brush. Once you are done working with them, you let them dry. Many use them for watercoloring or stamping. You can brush various colors onto a stamp, spritz with water and stamp....very neat images!!

The radiant pearls are more like an emmolient paint that dries by absorption. You put a bit on a plastic CD and it will not dry...you can use it in many ways also. I like to create background papers or put a dash of sparkle on my finished projects. You can clear emboss over it too.

Both come in a variety of colors which is appealing. They are really fun to work with. I think you can still find the radiant pearls around..picked up most of mine on Ebay.
