Metallic Accents Watercolor Review and Demo (Prima Marketing)

Metallic Accents Watercolor Review and Demo with Video

 

Metallic Accents Watercolor Review and Demo with Video

I’m a huge fan of both watercolors AND shimmer- I’ve been known to add shimmer sprays to my watercolor paints all the time. But recently I was at Papersource and I picked up this little innocuous looking set from Prima Marketing- Metallic Accents.  For the price ($15.95, which I gladly paid) I found it to be a pretty fab product. Let me show you!

Metallic Accents by Prima Marketing are water-activated pans are SUPER shimmery- but it’s easier to show you than to tell you. Take a look at this 7-minute video:

And let’s take one more look at those samples:

I love this set and I adore adding shimmery glimmery accents on light AND dark papers. It’s a winner in my book!

    Jenny, is the emboss resist done by stamping with a stamp pad used for embossing?

    After watching your excellent video I went to the website you provided & was able to purchase the Metallic Accents water color set with a coupon from the site for only $13.49! Great buy! Thank you Jenny! I can’t wait to make cards with these beautiful colors.

    It’s actually a two step process- first you stamp an image using pigment OR embossing ink, then apply embossing powder and heat it with a heat tool. Once the powder is melted and glossy, let it cool.
