![(69) [4K] How to use Arteza Mica Powders - Acrylic Pouring - Get Colour Shifting / Chameleon Cells](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/pd76WzQvNy0/mqdefault.jpg)
Maybe this has already been said, but I saw a video and she used clear gesso with the mica powders and they came out true to color…love playing with these and Lindy’s Magical Powders.
Those Mica Powders are so pretty. It's nice that you showed different examples of how to use them. Love the swatching
Mary Wilson thank you! You know I love swatching 😉❤️
Hello, You can also use tsukineko glue pad to stamp with the powders and you don't need to set the powder with anything x
Great thought, I probably wouldn't have thought of that, Victoria! Thanks!!
Cool product! Loved the spray on the black paper, just stunning!
Vickie Livingston I think that was my favorite way to use them, Vickie! 😍
Thanks for posting this! Just ordered a box for a small business plan I have in mind. Can’t wait to get started.
Best of luck!
Great video, thanks a lot! Usually I need to watch many vids to get a good impression of a certain product. You covered everything I wanted to know. Glad I watched yours first. 🙂👍
I’m so glad you watched and found what you were looking for, Andrea. ❤️
Cassie, first let me say thank you for doing this video, I truly like dappling with paints, and powders. So creating my own embossing colors and paints is something I will try. I have to say I missed seeing your assist, Max, poking his head in. Thanks so much for sharing.
m fountain you are so welcome, and thanks for watching! Lol, Max must have been asleep when I was working on this one. He is usually right in my lap always watching what I’m doing 😂❤️
Thank you Cassie for such a delightful and informative video on these powders. I only recently purchased the same 60 color set but to work w/alcohol inks to create diverse marbling affects besides just the gold I see out here. I'm quite new to it all, but quite playful and experimental, so know at least I've got that going for me, if not the experience yet but the delight in journey of play.
And that's what it's about! Have fun playing with your new toy, and enjoy learning as you go! That's the best :D
Thank you Cassie for this tutorial. I love these. I bet on their web page we can find more ways to use these.
gayle1055 I’m glad you enjoyed it! I imagine there are tons of ways to use these 😊
Oh, I just got these yesterday! I can't wait to see what you create with them!!! I'm going to go play myself! Thanks for the inspiration!!!
Maria Nyce how fun, Maria! Enjoy your playtime 😘❤️
To get the paint to stick you can add a binder to the mix. Gum Arabic is a good binder. Then the paint doesn't rub off.
Thank you, B. :)
I like to mix my mica powders with glazing medium. It makes the final outcome glossy & shiny and the colors tend to look very rich.
Kimberly Siddons I haven’t tried that, Kimberly! Great idea ❤️
I do this too! So fun
If no one has mentioned it yet, you can mix Gum Arabic with the mica to bind it to your paper. You can also use the micas with the Gum Arabic to make your own watercolor paint .
Thanks, Vicki! I haven't purchased that product yet, but I have heard that. I just need to pick some up and try that out :)
I bought a set of pigments years ago ( and I mean years), I recently took them out and couldn't remember how to use them. Your video was not just a great review but showed me new ways to use them. I can't wait to use them. Thanks!
Glad I could help!
very instructional. kudos to your teaching ability
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hi Cassie…thanks for sharing! If you mix the mica powder with air brush medium it won’t dilute the color like water does and it makes it into a wonderful paint.
Thanks for the tip!
Ahh ok so should I search air brush medium.. to use it like paint please and thank you
I wish we could order from Arteza in Australia. Their price point means I could try all sorts of mediums! How exciting, I love Mica powders! Thanks for sharing!
ElleLizzy May I had no idea you couldn’t order directly from them. Can you possibly find them on Amazon?
Go Online Amazon Is Probably Your Best Bet👍🏼
Great video, I really need to play with my mica’s now, thanks.
Deborah Northover thanks, Deborah! They are a fun product with lots of possibilities ❤️
Such great colors and so much possibilties. Thank you so much for all these ways to use it.
Anja Curvers thanks for watching, Anja ❤️
It looks more blue when you painted with it on the black
Totally agree, Connie :)
I was on the fence unsure about what to use these for and I'm sold!! Thank you for your informative video 🥰
Glad it was helpful!
@@cassietrask super helpful!! Have you mixed it with gum Arabic?? It's what watercolors are made with I believe and it sets the pigments really nicely as a binder
@@Alleellaa I have not yet, but had heard that and am anxious to try it! These would make beautiful watercolors!
I personally l💜ve the embossing powder on black. So cool.
Thank you for all the tops & info!💙
Me too! It looks so cool on the black, and I'm also a huge fan of the sprays on the black :)
That's a beautiful range of colors ! Thanks for bringing them to my attention! :0)
Cards Classic or Cute you are so welcome! I didn’t know about them either, but I’m glad I know now ❤️
Nice range of colours. I think water works with Perfect Pearls because it has a resin mixed into it, but if these are purely mica powder (like PearlEx) powders then yes, you're best to go with a fixative.
Rhonda Anderson aw gotcha. See I still have lots to learn 😘❤️
Suggestion : Place the tiny, clear plastic spoon which comes with this gorgeous set into a used bank coin plastic bag, and tuck the bag at the back of the rows of powders, in the same place every time! Saves one a lot of frustrated growling!
Great idea!!
Nice looks like you had fun with those. Interesting ideas to try 💕
DawnMarie Manning I really did. 😘❤️
I need to start swatching. I’m not a swatcher, 😯 I feel like that part of the video was for me. I guess it’s true confession time. 😁 These powders look like a ton of fun.
Carrie Rhoades LoL, sometimes it can be a pain when you just want to play, but I actually enjoy it. Not everyone enjoys it 😜❤️
Cassie Trask I might enjoy it, I’ll have to try it. But I do feel I’m the jump in and play girl. 😊
Carrie Rhoades Swatching is fun. Have fun.
Kristen Huynh I will give it a go! 😊
Swatching is a good excuse to play with your pretty supplies. It also ultimately saves time & money, since you can see what you have & can jump right into your project instead of testing all the colors each time; plus, you don't buy duplicates. :o)
Hey Cassie, interesting medium, not something I would generally play with but it looks fun!
Ciara T Designs I wouldn’t normally play with these either, but it was fun learning what I could do with them 😘❤️
Lovely. I would love to see this mixed with the clear glitter ritz or clear glitter nuvo paste. I bet that would be beautiful. Thanks for a great review.
Great idea! That would probably be quite beautiful!
Hairspray works also
OMGosh that little spoon is too cute? Where did you get it? I love all the examples you share with us! I just may have to get some. I love the perfect pearls, but I can barely find the colors I am looking for at our local stores. So it is in my cart.. Also I never thought of a fixative to spray on them when done.. I also have We R memory keepers candle maker, so I am going to try the mica powders in it. Thank you for sharing!!
Tina Miller the box came with one of those little spoons, but I’m so afraid I’m going to lose it since it’s so tiny! I’ll probably need to find more, lol. Yes, the fixative is a must for these, but that doesn’t bother me. Using them in candle making is a great idea! I know these can be added to soaps and bath bombs, so I’m sure the candle would be so pretty! Thanks for watching!
It's Included With The Set However You Can Purchase Online Search Mini Spoons 👍🏼
Great video Cassie. They are really pretty on the black paper, galaxy bacground?
PAM JOHNSON great idea, Pam! I love that idea ❤️
PAM JOHNSON great idea, Pam! I love that ❤️
If you want to paint with them, you can add gum arabic instead of having to spray a fixative over it. It’s possible honey would work as well since some water colors use honey as a fixative. What I’d like to know is how to make your own version of Nuvo drops. They us,e glum Arabic as well.
Dark Iris good tips! I’ve read that since making this video, but now you have me curious about making my own drops as well 😊
The Mica Powders Are Pretty However I Noticed That Too About What They Said About Weight It's Powder How Can They Weight Be That Different? I Noticed The Specialty Hues Are Less At least In My Set The Chameleons Ones And Some Of The AB Irridescent. I Also Heard Glycerin Or 91 Or Higher Alcohol Or Using A Medium Works I Am New To Mica Too So I Will Be Experimenting Myself To See What Works Best. Thank Got Making This Video Learn A Lot And Awesome Tips!!!
I definitely wondered that too. . .it's interesting to say the least. I will definitely keep experimenting with them as well :)
Fun playing! Love it when you do these videos & unboxing! I’m wondering if the craft companies will have to take a kit break because of the Corona virus. I’ve been waiting for March kits to no avail!
Jen Aultman I’m glad you enjoy them! I enjoy making them, because sometimes I’m discovering new things too. That’s always fun. I agree about the March kits...I finally got my SSS one last night, and haven’t heard much about others yet.
Or spray with hairspray 😁
That's true it would!
You can buy these individual! I use them with polymer clay to make jewelry.
I had no idea they could be purchased separately. ..I suppose I need to do better research before making a statement like that. I bet these are beautiful with polymer clay jewelry :D
@@cassietrask I didn't either, then I looked on their site, and they had individual bottles for sale, not all of the colour range is available, but some of the colours are. Yeah I recently made some mushroom earrings, and used them for it. It turned out amazing.
I use this for my Calligraphy :)
Mixing micas into white paint doesn't work well because the white is opaque--you have to use too much mica to overcome the opacity of the titanium dioxide used to make white paint. Good video---thanks for posting!
Great point! Thanks so much for taking the time :)
Great video! I plan to use your link to purchase the Waffle Flower swatching combo set. TFS!
Deborah Buonomo thank you so much, Deborah! I used that set so many times 😘❤️
Interesting product.
Mary Hunt yes, I probably wouldn’t have bought it on my own, so it will be fun to experiment.
Being a soap and candle maker I would not recommend using mica powders in candles. I have tones of mica powders from soap making. Right now I'm working on making watercolors with the proper fixatives. So much fun!
songb3588 good to know! I’ve never dabbled in soap making, but others might want to know that ❤️
It will rub off if mixed with water. If you want to paint with it mix with gum arabic and water let it dry and use as water colors.
Yes, Nancy, gum arabic is a great product to use with these :)
Mixing it with white acrylic paint made it a light color, just the same as if you mixed white with any color. They are both pigments. It would be interesting to see what would happen if you mixed this with red. Would it be purple? How about another blue? So many possibilities.
ragdolllibby very good point, and it made perfect sense to me that it would lighten. And you’re right...so many possibilities ❤️
Will you please explain how you use the embossing stamp when swatching? Do you put the mica on the wet embossing ink or heat set it then brush mica on top?
Oops I see you explain it later in the video. ☺️
No worries! I’m glad I eventually explained it. I should have explained it as soon as I showed that I searched them 😘❤️
These do not fix by spraying with water because they contain no medium as perfect pearls have. These colors are amazing! And I think on black or dark colored paper is where they belong.
Can they mix in water for watercolor
Yes, you can certainly do that as well :)
I use them with gum Arabic which is watercolors and I love them 🥰
Hi Cassie, great tutorial do you know if the mica can be added to metals such as charms? 👧🏻
Lyn Fischer you probably could do that, but you’d definitely need a fixative. I never thought to try changing the color of metal such as a charm. Maybe I need to now 🤔
I wonder if you could use gum aribic with it for like caligraphy maybe but they are pretty they remind me of pearl ex
I'm not a calligrapher, but I have used gum arabic with mica powder and water to make a shimmer spray that doesn't need a fixative (lots of instructions for this if you google homemade shimmer or glimmer sprays) so probably you could add gum arabic when making a paint from it. I really need to play with my pearlex powders more.
I’m glad Rhonda touches on this, because I honestly wasn’t sure. So, thanks, Rhonda ❤️
Gum Arabic does come in liquid and a power form. You could mix it with the powder form ad then spraying with water would work, but I think a spray fixative would just be easier and probably less messy. As long as you don't forget to do it.
Hey Cassie, Hi lol I see I was the last one who commented. Carrie Rhodes reminded me of your video. I did save it but mistakenly delegated EVERY VIDEO I saved 🤦🏻♀️. Anywho, have you played with the mica powders any further? I searched all over and the Arteza site. I purchased some fixative and also gum Arabic. Do you know the ratio of mica to gum Arabic? Thanks Cassie, Gayle
Hey Gayle! I was literally just thinking about them today. . .no joke, so I had watched a video this morning about making my own paints, and from what I've gathered there isn't a specific amount. Start with a little and go from there. The gum arabic I saw them use was liquid already, so I'm not sure what you have. I'll see if I can do more research but that is the best I have as of now.
did you put the pigment powder in the water and spritz it on paper or canvas,is it okay?
In small doses like spritzing it seems to be fine. If you wanted to watercolor with it, you would need some gum arabic. I hope that helps!
I read somewhere that someone said to mix some non aerosol hairspray in with the water as a cheaper fixative - have you tried that?
Puddytatpurr I haven’t, but that is a great idea!
Thanks for making this video, very helpful. Do you have rangers sticky embossing powder? I wonder how it would do with that without a fixative.
amybeth928 oooo, I don’t, but it would be worth a try. It worked great with the clear embossing powder 😊
@@cassietrask yea I just wonder if there's something different in the sticky embossing powder that would be like the resin that's in perfect pearls (but not in the mica) in terms of setting it you know?
amybeth928 yeah, that’s a good question.
Can u add the mixed mmica powders to paint?
Absolutely!
What about mixing with alcohol?
That's a good thought. . .didn't think of trying that one :)
What was the stencil that looked like a doily? Thanks for sharing!
Hi Minna! It was this stencil -- www.brutusmonroe.com/products/mixed-media-stencil-lace-doily?_pos=2&_sid=f94f3c592&_ss=r&aff=66
Cassie, can you mix this with clear embossing powder to make different colors?
Should have finished watching the entire video...lol I was too excited about the colors!
Lol, I've done that too ;). But it looks like we were on the same wavelength thinking about making our own embossing powders!
do you have to have a you tube channel for arteza to send you free products
Gina Badeaux honestly, I’m not sure, Gina. I imagine you would need some sort of platform to be able to share the products. Maybe you could reach out to them to find out.
@@cassietrask thank you
Where do you buy your embossing powder?
I typically buy my embossing powders from Brutus Monroe :)
i want to win these i have lots of arteza paints
Gina Badeaux they have some great paints 😊
