Step 1: Choose a piece of patterned paper with a defined floral design. Using a Non-Stick Craft Sheet as a palette, scoop out a small amount of Perfect Pearls in colors that match the flowers. Use a Mini-Mister to spray the Perfect Pearls with water to create paint. Use a paint brush to paint a translucent pearly glaze over the flowers. Let dry and cut the flowers out. |

Step 2: Cut a piece of cardstock to 7 ¾ x 7 ¾ inches and a coordinating cardstock to 8×8 inches for a border. Arrange the flowers on the cardstock. Choose a coordinating stamp to fill in any empty spaces. Stamp with Perfect Medium and use a brush to dust on matching Perfect Pearls. Use a larger brush to wisk away any excess powder. |

Step 3: Add photo to layout and adhere the flowers. To add pearly dimension to the centers of the flowers, apply glossy accents as desired. |

Step 4: Dip a dry paint brush in Perfect Pearls use your finger to tap the brush so that the powder falls to cover the Accents. Let dry and wisk away any excess powder. |
