Make it Monday Perfect Pearls and ColourQ







 Have you ever heard of Perfect Pearls? Well, I have not!  After watching Nichole’s Make It Monday Video I thought to myself……. hmmm…. wonder if I could use my bare Minerals 
highlighting eye shadow?…..Yep …..I could and that is just what I did!  Now after trying this I might go out and buy the Perfect Pearls. This was lots of fun! I wont be using my bare Minersals eye highlighter anymore as it is on the pricy side , I only needed a tiny bit though. Wonder why I have never heard of this before!
Hope you have a great day!

All products are from Papertrey Ink but the Limeade cardstock.

  8. You are so smart. What a creative solution, and I love your card. And, if you are in a rush, you could rub your eyes with your card, and then you would be all ready to go out.

  12. Oh my WORD. Eye shadow. On a card. Of course, it makes sense now, but wouldn't have thought of it! Necessity is the mother of invention. What a cool idea, thanks for sharing it, Marybeth!!

  14. Aren't you clever! I would never have thought of that but it works great. And what a fun way to try a technique without making an investment before you know if it's something you want to use! It was definitely a success--LOVE your flowers!!

  15. Fabulous card, Marybeth, I love the Bare Minerals eye shadow idea! Also love that you put it all on the Lucky Limeade card stock for a background, one of my favorite colors to use. Thanks for sharing your card with us at the colourQ this week.

  16. Yep, you came up with a fabulous solution to not having Perfect Pearls, Marybeth. Your card is beautiful. Maybe try the Dollar store brand of eyeshadow next time ;)
