Heated Pearls Technique Using Pearl Ex Pigments

Remember when the Heated Pearls Technique Using Pearl Ex Pigments was the trend?  I remember the first time I used the technique.  I was temporarily living in the Washington, D.C. area working on a contract for the Federal Government.  I was thinking about becoming a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator and was experimenting with techniques.  A demonstrator asked me to help her prepare cards that showcased various techniques for a card swap she was hosting.  I agreed to help and was asked to use the Heated Pearls Technique.  I enjoyed the technique but it can be messy; therefore, I rarely used it.

However, an opportunity to use the technique presented itself when I was serving as a “Dirty Girl” on Splitcoaststampers.  The “Dirty Dozen” theme for the month of April was titled “Perfect Blend”.  When the challenge was posted, I immediately thought of the Heated Pearls Technique using Pearl Ex Pigments.  Therefore, I used the technique in response to the “Perfect Blend” challenge.  This is the card I submitted but could not post it until now.

1 John 3:21-24
“Dear friends, if our hearts do not condemn us we have confidence before God and receive from him anything we ask, because we obey his commands and do what pleases him.  And this is his command:  to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us.  Those who obey his commands live in him, and he in them.  And this is how we know that he lives in us:  We know it by the Spirit he gave us.”

"Then he said to Thomas, 'Put your finger here; see my hands.  Reach out your hand and put it into my side.  Stop doubting and believe.'  Thomas said to him, 'My Lord and my God!'  Then Jesus told him, 'Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.' "
