Q: Carol wrote: "Someone told me they had seen a recipe for refurbishing the liquid in blender pens. Maybe it contains water and glycerine?"
A: Yes, they were right! You can refill blender pens. You can find the refill recipe in

Feedback From Past Tutorials
Toknighton has a twist on the Cracked Glass technique: "I colored the image with classic inks and a blender pen and planned to do cracked glass but accidentally poured Iridescent Ice [embossing powder] over the VersaMarked image. OOPS! I decided to not start over and went ahead, applying 2 (or 3) layers of Glassy Glaze [ultra thick embossing powder]. After heat setting the image, I froze it, cracked it and rubbed it in ink. Voilà! A semi-new technique I call cracked diamonds."

We're packing in the box tutorials! Have cardstock, paper cutter and scoring tool, and a
Five-In-One Card Cover Template
