How do you make colored baby powder?

That isn't going to stain everything???

I need black, to cover adhesive.

You're getting hits but I think everyone is shaking their heads on this one. Just what are you trying to do? Maybe if we know what your project is someone will have an idea.

I made one of the shoes that Donna posted. To attach the chording at the bottom and ric rack at the top I used my atg gun. It went on in a snap! BUT now it's all sticky. I like to brush baby powder on the extra adhesive so it isn't sticky anymore, but I'm afraid if I use white, it'll look white.

EYSHADOW!!!
DUH!

Luanne, for the future...I adhered my hanging ribbons between the soles so I wouldn't have a problem and it wouldn't show...would that help later? still don't know what you mean by the cording?????

[cnedaria]

me, I probably would have tried a drop of alcohol ink in a baggie with some BP. But Eyeshadow is good if you've got it...

[neith]

hehe and here i was thinking that you should use colored chalk shavings instead of baby powder hehe... but in all honesty I'd probably try my adhesive eraser first

So, lady, I wanna see some pics of you wearing your black eyeshadow!

I can usually roll up extra ATG adhesive with my finger and then pull it off.

See? You got your answer!

Heh. Good tip. Though it never would have crossed my mind. I don't remember the last time I had any eyeshadow in the house (aside from the stuff Nicole got last year at Bibbity Bobbity Boutique). Chalk dust would be a good one for me though. We've always got chalk laying around.

Someone on another thread suggested glitter - I'd love to see that!

[ChristyB]

oohh Glitter, bet that would be pretty too.

[InkPattie]

You could use black glitter--they sell it at Joanne's really cheap. I bought some when Bistro came out and everyone with a senior kit had those cool black rhinestones, and we had nothing with the stamp kit! I needed black bling!

I just rub my finger against the
extra gluey stuff and it comes off
