All of these are available as individual products. You can make the color bursts and brusho's sparkly by using either white perfect pearls or any of the white pearlex powders into a dedicated water bottle with a couple of drops of gum arabic, glossy accents or another clear glue. I own all three of these powders and love them all but sometimes you don't need/want sparkle... Hope this helps for anyone that has the non sparkly versions :)
I love Shimmer Powder. I discovered they will also work with alcohol ink but differently than with water. Shimmer Powders are a lot like a cross between Ken Oliver/Brusho powders and Perfect Pearls. I haven't tried the Shimmer Powder in all the ways I've used Perfect Pearls, but I suspect they could work similarly, such as using them on sticky clear ink for a faux embossing. Wafting the Shimmer Powder through a light mist might yield some interesting results.
I have quite a few Lindy's Magicals that come in a shaker bottle that make it great to work with. Greg does an excellent job of filming, but it would be nice to look straight down on what you are doing.
Respectfully....I sure wish we could see - straight on - the work you are doing. Why don’t you have a camera above looking straight down instead of from the side? I am so interested but I find that I am almost craning my neck.....which won’t do a thing to help!!! You do wonderful work! Let’s have a better look!!! Thanks for listening!!
So excited as I just ordered some tonic powders - my first fore into the powder medium. Love your tip about using the craft tool on the the tops of the Brusho with color coded tacks on top! Genius idea that I can use sometime on other products. Also thanks for the smoothing ideas with heat tool and the die cutting machine.
I placed a row of about 5 colors across the left edge of the paper, sprayed with water and brushed it across the card with a rectangle sponge applicator. It was really a pretty rainbow affect.
I would like to see a video with tips on using the Tonic SPICE BASKET Hand Crafted Embossed Cotton. It is beautiful but I haven't seen any cards posted using this paper. Thanks for considering my suggestion. I love your tips, tricks & tutorials and watch each one.
I have never heard of Brusho. Ken Oliver yes. Picked up a couple of his when our local Scrapbook store closed when I still lived in California. Tonic ones are new to me. However I am familiar with Perfect Pearls. Do they work like PP when used with watermark inks? Happy Crafting!!
Hi Alexandra. How Ironic. I was getting ready to use ken oliver powders on watercolor paper for an ATC card of a Pig! I have 9 brusho, many Ken Oliver, several Tonic powders and many of the Magenta brand powders called Nuance.
I like the fact that Nuvo has see through bottles so you can see how much you have left. Thanks for the demo!
I would love to see a tutorial video using gilders paste and wax if possible!!
I know this is an older video BUT you are the lady I look for to compare!!!

Rijacki Ledum I have the Cosmic Shimmer Powders. Will try them with alcohol inks.
I do like these but it would be good to show it close up.

I'm surprised at how colorful the Brusho is. TYSM for sharing!

Like the video but was wondering why you don't have the Ken Olivers?
I love Nuvo now, I started my collection.
Spray both sides of the paper with water to stop warping of the paper.
Thank you for this excellent demonstration. Wishing you a super week. Hugs Susan
Please consider an overhead camera!
thanks for this video very helpful, does this technique work with all powdered paint pigment, or are the ones you are using in this video different ?

No they are need water and then the colors explode, they behave like a water color rather than a pigment powder that sticks down
Thank you. What is the difference with these ans reg watercolor
Watercolors dont have multiple colors in that 'burst' out so you dont get the color explosions as you do with these

You can but individually. The price point is better in a set.
What about Papaerartsy Infusions?
They work the same way too
Awesome video of information...thank you!!
