Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
A couple of months ago, I zoomed with some friends and we use Perfect Pearls.
I've finally made some cards with my makes and need to share them
before the season passes.
For this card, I mixed gold Perfect Pearls with Pumpkin Pie ink and water and painted on
this leaf die cut. While it was still wet, I brushed some copper Perfect Pearls
on top.
I've used some of the leftover gold mix smooshed on the background and
did a little random stamping over that with Tea Die ink.
Here's a picture that shows more of the shine.
I used the same technique for this card but used a little print making
for the background.
Isn't this a wonderful sentiment stamp?
And a close up of the shine.

Such good looking fall cards. Love that your zoom session came up with Perfect Pearls...fun to "re-discover" products...and using the copper and gold ones is "perfect". The copper foil and sentiment pulls it all together. Happy Fall, my friend!
Your leaves are gorgeous, Bonnie! I’ve always loved your background washes too. The shine is just beautiful on them. What incredibly gorgeous fall colors.
These are both absolutely GORGEOUS Bonnie and I'm loving the closeups showing all that shimmer and shine!! Beautiful colors too that look just like sunshine on all the foliage, and that sentiment on the 2nd card is FABULOUS...love it! Lovely, lovely cards my friend! Have a wonderful weekend!! Hugs. :0)
Gorgeous cards Bonnie ...stunning colours

Wow Bonnie, the shimmer and shine on those leaves is gorgeous and love the added PP smooshing and stamped script on the first and the leaf printing and a wonderful sentiment on both using copper embossing and that copper foil mat on the second is so pretty and shiny too. Fabulous cards. x

[almost as wonderful as the one I just opened! Thank you!!]
Wow, this is Perfect Pearls to the max. Beautiful cards and designs and I love the print making. The shine really shows up so well.
LOVE the shimmer of your perfect pearls and ink on these beautiful Autumn cards Bonnie! The leaves look so amazing with the softly watercoloured backgrounds. I agree with you about the season sentiment - lovely! xx
Oh, how I love that one last leaf hanging on the branch. Exquisite! Quite the sheen with those Perfect Pearls. Very different from Twinkling H2Os, which can have a granular look. Beautiful leaves and quote. Love the backgrounds.
Wow, Bonnie, these are gorgeous! Love the extra dimension of elegance your gold and metallic touches bring to our rich colors - stunning! Thanks so much for playing at Sunday Stamps!
Wow Bonnie! Love both creations. Love the shine you captured. Perfect.
Hugs and Blessings,
Jim

They are all so wonderful! Nature is amazing and you have really captured the beauty of her autumn gown...
Two beautiful designs Bonnie! The Perfect Pearls really add wonderful shimmer to the inks - I love the watery background on the first with that lovely single leaf hanging on to the branch!
The copper perfect pearls look amazing on your first Bonnie and yes the sentiment is wonderful on the second. Two stunning cards Bonnie x.
Such a beautiful organic appeal to these cards. The shimmer and shine make them even more special. Love these colours!
Ooo, the metallic shine you achieved with the perfect pearls looks absolutely amazing Bonnie! Both cards are exquisite and I'm so glad you shared the first one with us at Sunday Stamps!
Wow, Bonnie! Both of your cards are just beautiful! I love the background you created for your beautiful leaf- but your second cards is classy as well. Thanks so much for taking the time to play along with Sunday Stamps! :)
Both fall leaves cards are stunning, Bonnie! Love the gorgeous shine and shimmer of Perfect Pearls! Brushing Copper over Gold adds depth, and the Tea Die is a perfect choice for the text stamping. The sentiment for the second card is so true. Love it!
