Liquid Pearls etc

Post by Elannah »

Did you buy into this concept? How many do you have? I think I have a bazillion which is more than a gazillion of Liquid Pearls, Stickles, Zing, and whatever other glitter glue pretty pearly, blingy stuff was ever made.

Did you buy into this? I went in head over heels. I just love them.

I have a good selection but unfortunately, don't use them like I thought I would. Maybe when I scrap at the end of the month, I will force myself to use them :)

I have some liquid pearls, but I have a hard time getting a nice round application of them without the little "tip" that comes from the last bit that comes out of the bottle. Mine never seem to settle into a nice rounded shape. Does anyone else have that problem?

I used to have lots of the Stickles. But, I sold them all on a garage sale.

Not interested in them. So didn't jump on that bandwagon! Reminds me of the puffy paints that people decorated t-shirts with.

I have a total of 3 Liquid Pearls - they are pretty easy to use. I was amazed when I applied it and thought - crackers - it looks horrible. When I came back the next day - I had pearls on my layout! I also have one pearl pen. I must admit that I haven't tried it yet.

I've just a few months ago got some liquid pearls and I do like it. Bought 3 more colors. I had some want to be pointy but for the most part they hold their shape. Just a small dot but helped my embellishment a lot, I thought.

I have no liquid pearls and never had any use for them. I never wanted any stickles either but received some from a secret sister years ago and finally started using them. Still don't a lot but mostly at Christmas. I DID buy some special colors of some recently for a project but since that project haven't found a need for them again. I only have 5 bottles of stickles.

There is one that is totally Stash Worthy. It is called Christmas and it is a beautiful red Stickles. It might be hard to find because it was released a while ago. I just checked the store here and they don't have it anymore because it is old. It is the most beautiful Christmas red. If you ever go to an LSS that has Stickles get it! Trust me!

I admit I have every color ACOT sells, and I use them all the time! These work so much better for me than the old pre pasted ones, though I still love and purchase the swirly ones. Just no single packs any more.

I ahve about 20 bottles of stickles and I've mostly used them for cards cuz I hate the drying time. Since I received a heat gun for Christmas I'm hoping I can dry it right away so I can add a little sparkle to my pages...... most I
of mine are glitter/sparkle colors.

I love my stickles, but Liquid Pearls are really so much more fun to use. I have several colors and intend to pick up a bunch more if I can get to my Archiver's before they are all gone.

I have a bunch of stickles, and some of the smootches. But no liquid pearls.

I've not been using these since I create cards for OWH. Glitter is a no/no, since it can stick on a soldier's uniform and be seen by night goggles. Very dangerous.

I actually have that one! the 5 I have: Christmas Red, a Lime green that is great for Christmas too - a white one that dries clear; lavendar, and turquoise or something, the color name isn't on that one.

I probably have about 20 bottles of stickles, and use them selectively, depending. I probably use the ones that just add sparkles rather than color more, but I have that Christmas red too, and it's a great one!
