I just got to play with a pack of Twinkling H20s this afternoon ... bought them last weekend and they sat neglected all week! :(
I bought pack TW-665 (a new color pack that includes English Lavendar, Wine & Roses, Dreamsicle, Lemongrass, Mediterranean Blue and Blushing Rose). I am in love ...
Was wondering what colors you owned and which colors you get the most use out of.
Generally, do you use Stazon to stamp your image first or do you emboss in black and then paint? I don't have any black embossing powder (gasp!) so I just used black Stazon this afternoon when I was playing around. It seemed to work fine.
I just bought two this afternoon too! I am so excited. I bough 652 and 657. I have to have more. I want a brown and gold. I am interested in hearing what others fav's are too!
The second site is the chart from the people who make them.
I had ordered some Radiant Pearls from them in the past and low and behold, they sent me a gift box for Christmas with an ornament done with the H2O's and a card painted with them. I was pleasantly surprised. I got my H20's from Shawna here on SCS. She gave a 25% discount I think, if I remember right.
what are theese? I see everyone talking about them. Does anyone have a link? I'm relatively new to stamping and a little clueless on more than a few things. :?
Sarah - I just got some Twinkling H2O's 2 weeks ago - I am in love with them and ordered another pack - I got mine from a store on e-bay - PM me if you want the name...they charged $10 plus $1.50 for S&H
Anyway - I just stamped using classic black ink and colored itusing an aquabrush - no problems - so you don't have to use Staz-on or emboss

I use basic black also, works great. I just got the set of metallics (gold, bronze, white etc. can't remember the name) but it is so pretty with the set of bright colors I already owned!
The H2O's are paints that have sparkle in them...but are PAINT, and you use them as you would any kind of paint...brush and water....not trying to come across as a smarta**, sometimes it just sounds like it. :(
The radient pearls are glycerin based...and act and react different in application.
My fav ink to use is a black memories pad....or a permanent black dye based ink......
it doesn't take much water to get a very rich color from the H2O's.
The question of how many do you need ? ALL OF THEM, silly girl !!!!!!

So is it correct to say that where the Pearl Ex Palettes look different on light vs. dark C/S, the Twinkling H2Os stay color consistent? In other words a pink shade of TH20s is pink on white or black...none of the interences/duos etc?
Thanks for the help. Just trying to determine 'need'. :P

I am sorry. After positing the sites with the color charts, I forgot I had made this one. I make color charts on all my mediums.
I did a watercolor wash on one side of the color space and then a more deep color on the other. Both were done with a watercolor brush. If you need to be able to see this clearer, email me. The size is so controlled by the site, you may not be able to read the colors on here.
I hope this helps. Sorry I forgot I did it, even though I use it all the time.
Which Twinkling H20s colors do I need???
