Make Your Scrapbook Die Cut Titles Shine Like a Pearl!

If you're looking for ways to shake things up with your scrapbook sentiments without too much effort... you're in the right place!

Basically, pearl paint is just a thickened paint that produces a beautiful pearl finish once dry. It has a small nozzle that makes it really easy to control the amount of paint as you squeeze.

Step 1

To start making our sentiments stand out more, all we need to do is prepare a die cut sentiment and start filling it in with some pearl paint.

Step 2

Just squeeze the paint and go over the direction of the sentiment. Do this with a scratch paper behind it so you won't mind the spilling on the edges.

Step 3

If you apply too much paint on certain spots, you can easily spread it out evenly with the nozzle.

Now, all we have to do is set it to dry. Using a tweezer, I advise that you pick it up and move to a parchment paper for drying overnight. That way, even if the dried paint sticks on the surface, you'll still be able to easily remove it easily.

But I totally recommend that you get a few bottles of the 3D pearl paint for your stash because it's very cheap and handy!
