Thanks for sharing your way of doing the gel pen. I love the reverse method. Hope I can do as easy as you did. I have so much trouble getting those small prints off. I will be trying that method. your daughter is a sweetheart. I enjoyed her as well.
You are very welcome!
🤣🤣🤣🤣 I can’t with Arya 🤣🤣🤣🤣 her face reactions when you were talking about the knife. When she first popped in the video she was so adorable and then with her faces i was sold 🤣🤣🖤🖤 your blessed with a sweet little girl 🙏🏼 also love your video btw lol thank you for sharing
Lol thank you! I am blessed. She keeps me in my toes a d she is such a sweetheart.
YOUR DAUGHTER, THE HIT OF THE VIDEO :0)
Lol she is such a ham.
I was waiting for someone to do this. Thank you!!!
New sub here!!!
You are very welcome!
@@odeth813 Awesome. Welcome :)
Gorgeous !
Thank you!
I really enjoyed watching the process. I liked your attention to detail. Great video!
Thank you :)
She's the cutest
Thank you :)
Awesome video
Thank you!
TU for the tutorial. I came hereto see how to do tack it for a unicorn burst pen. But got so much more. I was struggling with keeping the epoxy out of the clicker end. Messed up several pens doing so. I am gonna try silly putty to see how that works. But I like the toothpick tool you devised. Gonna try that next. Tell Aria she is brilliant, awesome and beautiful!
Thank you! I'm so glad my video helped 😊. Good luck and happy pen making. And yes she is amazing. 😊
Great information thank you
Your welcome 😊
Thank you
You're welcome!
Great video, very helpful. Arya was my favorite
Ty 😊
I always add a single coat of resin or epoxy onto my pens before I base coat and add glitters. This is just a good universal way to prep a ton of pens at once. This way, if you use tack it or a waterslide, the dimples are already covered
U let the resin cure then spray your base?
I love this video, I tried tack it today but when I rubbed it in it seems like it all came off. Any suggestions?
You could use 2 coats of tack-it. Don't water the Tack-it down too much and rub lightly. See if any of that helps. Also, what brand of glitter are you using and are you using a fine glitter or chunky?
@@ItsACraftThingAlishaVirgillo fine glitter I might of added too much water. I"ll try thx
you said you were going to add 2 coats of clear coat. Is that spray sealer clear coat? If so how long do you let your last coat dry before adding epoxy to them? Thanks great video
Yes. I use Rustoleum gloss clear. I let it dry an hour before epoxy.
@@ItsACraftThingAlishaVirgillo Thank you
@@karenpaul4594 anytime 😊
Where can I get the decals
@@rzrbckfn11 I cut the names on my cricuit. The flower is just a sticker I got from a book.
Your video was so helpful to me. Thank you so much for sharing. I do have one question. When you mentioned about 2 coats of clear coat after you finished with the glitter. What did you use?
Hi Heather. I use the Rustoleum 2x gloss clear.
Alisha you and Arya are truly ADORBZ! I had fun watching your video. LUVnHUGZ, Rita Donnelly ps Arya is already a star!
Awe! Thank you so much :)
Beautiful very inspirational. Can you use mod podge to add glitter??
Ty 😊. Yes you can use mod podge but you can not tack/rub the glitter down. You can also apply glitter with epoxy.
I love doing these pens, yours are pretty love the colors, what font did you use please and thank you
The font I used is called The Phamelo. Found at 1001 fonts.
www.1001fonts.com/the-phamelo-font.html
What is that font? Please I cant find it
It's called The Phamelo. I got it from 1001 fonts.com.
Are there any different steps if using UV Resin instead of Epoxy? For example, does the glitter need to be sealed prior to applying the UV Resin?
Yes. Uv resin is Epoxy/Resin so you should seal like you would any other epoxy.
@@ItsACraftThingAlishaVirgillo thank you! Do you mean to use Spray Paint Clear Coat 2x? Thank you for the great tutorial!
Hi after the tack and before the epoxy what did you use to seal? or no sealing?
Definitely seal. I used Rustoleum 2x clear gloss. You can also use the matte clear or triple think. Whichever you prefer. The matte will dull the glitter but the epoxy will bring the shine right back.
I love that font you used for Arya name! What is it called?
It's call The Phamelo. I got it from 1001 Fonts.com. I linked it a couple of comments down.
Sorry but I must have missed a step and I'm new to this but when do you add the epoxy?
No worries. Epoxy after you seal the glitter. Put on 1 to 2 coats of epoxy. That will depend largely on how smooth the first coat came out. If smooth, put on decal then put final layer of epoxy. I hope this helps.
How many coats of tack it do you use?. Do you sand it?
1 coat of tack it. Only sand after 2 coats of epoxy, if needed.
@@ItsACraftThingAlishaVirgillo thank you
@@jennczochara9844 Your welcome :)
What is the size of the fonts on pens ? I been trying to one for now
I don't do it by font size. I size them in design space between .3 and 1/2 inch.
I love your nail polish! 😍 Did you do it yourself?
No actually. It is Color Street nail polish strips. I have a friend who sells them. I'm going to get a link to her page for you.

It's Bloody Gorgeous! Love CS!
@@janetta1494 That's all I wear!
Can you show the bottle of tack it pls.
I linked it in the description box.
This is great but I couldn’t hear you very well as your music was too loud.
there were certain spots where I put in music because I was not talking and sped up the process to save on time.
Can you refill the ink or how would you refill the ink?
Amazon sells ink refills. I'm not sure which one fits. I have to research that.
I found them on Amazon, ordered them and the fit. I put a link in the description.
What did you stuff the ends with?
I wrapped q-tips with painters tape.
You can buy it at Michael’s
You can buy what at Michael's?
Can this method be done with crystalac brite tone?
To apply the glitter? If so, than not that I am aware of. To seal the pen I don't see any reason why you couldn't.
@@ItsACraftThingAlishaVirgillo I know I can seal it with brite tone.... but I wonder if I can use the glitter flue they sell to do this method. Off to crystalac Facebook haha thanks for thr reply
@@deemarie9616 sure. Let me know. I have no experience with Crystalac.
@@deemarie9616 you can! There is a video on TH-cam of someone showing you how! I just ordered it for the first time. Lol
Where do you get the stickers?
Hi Janet. I got the flower sticker from a pack at Michael's. The other's I cut out on my Cricut.
How long do you let dry?
The Tack-it glue only takes a few minutes to dry. Not more than 10 minutes. If it is white it is still wet. If it is clear then it is dry and tacky and ready for glitter.
@@ItsACraftThingAlishaVirgillo awesome thank you
what font is Arya?
It's called Beyond the Mountains. Here is a link. it is free for personal use. www.1001freefonts.com/beyond-the-mountains.font
What is the difference between using Tacky vs Tack It?
Hi Christine. Tacky is kind of like an Elmers or Mod Podge. It dries clear and flexible. Tack-It is a repositional glue. It dries sticky. You want Tacky glue to be wet when you apply glitter. You want Tack-It to be dry.
@@ItsACraftThingAlishaVirgillo thank you!! I have never used Tack It, so I wasn't sure. I've got tons of Mod Podge and Tacky, though!
@@TheCaffeinatedWife You're welcome. 😊
@@ItsACraftThingAlishaVirgillo I thought that tack it was supposed to be “tacky” (idk I’ve never made one-but I’ve got all the supplies) also how long are you supposed to let the tack it over and over “dry” before applying glitter? What if I used mod Podge would I need to apply it right away or let it dry a bit? Thanks in advance!🥰💕🌸🦋🦋
@@allijmccoy Tack it glue dries like Elmers Glue. Tack-it over and over dries sticky. It only takes a few minutes for it to dry. When it is clear you know it's dry. Tack-it method does not work using mod podge. Jump back in my Channel. I have a video called Mod Podge vs. Tack-it. That will explain it better.

Did you dilute the tack it?
Hi Trina. Yes but not 50/50. I just put a little water in to make it a little thinner.
What is tack it?
@@debrasprouse4624 I have a video for that question 😊

Its hard to hear you with the music playing in the background
Sorry about that. I wasn't talking when the music was playing. I was just speeding it up to save time.
I love her quiet voice....😂🤣😅...smart girl!!
Thank you :)
I read that too quick. Oooh my daughter. Yeah she is so appropriately funny.
Thank you for sharing. I was wondering if you could use the TackIT method on pens.
You are very welcome :)
Yessss and it works out great 👍
@@debrajol3585 It's actually my favorite way to do the pens. I just posted how I did hydro dip, vinyl wrap and waterslide. After comparing them, I am definitely partial to the tack-it :)
