take one mini mister and fill with a dropperful of distress ink refills, a popsicle stick scoop or two of perfect pearls, and fill with distilled/etc water, shake and spray! :) The Perfect Pearls have a binding agent that is activated by water, white the powdered pearlex, etc don't. Also, DO NOT put alcohol inks/alcohol ink Blending Solution in the spray bottle as inhaling them is harmful (they aren't just rubbing alcohol)

Speaking of perfect pearls - check out the blog of the woman who invented it.
www.juliaandrus.com and read about her miracle under "News". I get goose bumps every time I think about it.

Alcohol ink is really Ether, very flamable. Very dangerous. Very fun.

Ah pearl-ex...you can't really say you've worked with pearl-ex until you blow your nose and realize that powder does indeed go EVERYWHERE!
