CHA MUST HAVE #1

So I decided that each day I would enable you to make your list of things to buy from things I LOVED at CHA! Today's featured company is Ranger! First off the NEW Stickles!! Everyone NEEDS MORE Stickles!! : ) Why do you need the new Stickles? Let me tell you. Distress Stickles come in the same colors as Distress Crackle paints, and the glitter used in these is a pearlized glitter so it is not a metallic shine.
To quote Tim on his new Stickles:
"stickles you say? yes stickles! but these aren't your ordinary stickles (of course), this formulation combines a pearlized glitter instead of metallic glitter and composed of carious particle sizes. pair that with the popular color palette of distress and you have a very vintage (almost mica looking) distress glitter glue. the texture is amazing, the colors are amazing and the results...still pure distress."



The glitz Stickles on the other hand are even more sparkly than the original
to add MORE bling to your projects!



And then there are the Ice Stickles made from various sizes of glitter and larger pieces than regular stickles giving a thicker look to your project.



I have fallen in LOVE with a new white pen!! Inkssentials™ White Pen All I can say is it writes like BUTTA!!!

Doodle, draw, write and scribble with the Inkssentials™ White Opaque Pen. Filled with a bright, white opaque pigment ink this pen is great for doodling, accenting stamped projects and journaling on colored papers. Use it over projects painted with Distress Crackle Paint™ and Adirondack® Acrylic Paint Dabbers. Highlight pre-printed embellishments and scrapbook papers to make them pop!
• Opaque coverage
• Acid free, non-toxic
• Ideal for scrapbookers, paper crafters and altered artists
• Works on polymer clay prior to baking
• Lightfast, waterproof and fade resistant



Then there are the new colors of Crackle paint!! Metallics and WHITE!! New Metallic Crackle Paint in 3 finishes! And by request, a new opaque white paint called Picket Fence has been added to the other 24 Distress Crackle Paint colors.

Note: Metallic Crackle Paints take 2-3 times longer to dry than non-metallic versions. Do not use a craft heat tool to speed drying as it will cause the paint to bubble.



And my final Ranger reccomendation...Claudine Hellmuth Studio Paints

The Claudine Hellmuth Studio line of semi-gloss paint is a collection of 15 highly pigmented, artist quality acrylic paints in her favorite colors! Creamy in consistency, they can be mixed together for an endless palette of colors without becoming muddy. Use for painting on Claudine Hellmuth Sticky-Back Canvas, paper projects, and more.

• Acid free, non-toxic
• Archival
• Artist quality paint
• Signature palette, 15 whimsical colors
• Available in 2 oz. jars

These paints were amazing!! The color was SO intense and you only needed 1 light coat to get that vibrant color!! A MUST have paint!!



This is the paint I used in the flower make and take!

Well I hope I added to your shopping list and stayed tuned till tommorrow when I bring the next installment of CHA MUST HAVES!!!

TFL!
