Playing with new Stuff: Perfect Pearls by Ranger

I recently bought some Perfect Pearls by Ranger,http://www.rangerink.com/products_perfectpearls.html

I started playing with them and liked the background I came up with...I used a doodle stamp with the Perfect Medium and stamped on white cardstock, then used copper and gold Perfect Pearls powder to brush over the stamped doodles....

This is a card I made from a PP background, I did an Iris Fold Buttefly and Flower on the card..

This card I did

using a large and small flower punch and gluing some together and putting a sequin in the middle...
