Funnily enough some of my PPs are on my desk right now because I've been trying to use them with and over acrylic paint - I've not gone thick enough with that layer. So I will try the shimmery bubbled warts and all technique - not gone that far yet.

See the example of Mr. Skelly above. BUT you do want to give them a mist of water to seal them. Even then, I've had them wipe off ever so slightly, but mostly it does the trick. (Perhaps I didn't give an adequate spritz) And as you can see from my examples where I do use something sticky like Versamark or Distress ink, the color is deeper and richer. Play with them and have fun! But remember to open them from the right side! Happy I inspired you!
