Hello I have a few comments about the faux pearls and the way they look so I thought id say a bit more. I have tried these faux pearls quite a few times and to be honest they take a bit of practice. I suppose it is likeworking with pearlidoodles or stickles you get a feel after a bit. On the blooms card my pearlidoodles got smudged and i added a bit more which i think made it look messy.
The faux pearls I tried straight out of the bottle but they were too big and too flat. I now use a tiny pipette which i bought in our local craft shop. It is like a sort of eye dropper and i mixed the mica with the glue before i made the pearl the last time which makes it look a bit more intense colour. when they were almost dried i played with the shape a bit and have made some that are a bit more ovalish not sure what ill use that shape for but i like playing. When the glue dries they settle into a nice shape.
Anyway try the pipette for the faux pearls and then mess around with the mica in the glue as well although you need to use all the pipette to save waste and to save the pipette getting clogged up.
Have a good day, happy crafting.
