I have found it!
I found it at Michael’s. I also got the teal and rose quartz. It’s by DecoArt and is labeled Extreme Sheen!
I also decided to use my extra paint on small paper plates. Then, I can cut out circles of color to use in collage, like I did in my train collage:
That’s what I accomplished, today:
I cleaned gel plates, some with hand sanitizer, some with baby oil, some by trying to pull what’s on the plate.
I sanded the back of my lavender dotted flower, and found some paint to match.
It’ll take a few coats.
I finished my, yes it’s pink, dotted flower, went through my haul, and realized I had bought another corner bookmark kit!
I also went to the grocery store, watched EddieMakesArt make some gorgeous gel prints and image transfers, EddieMakesArt
and took a nap.
This 100 day project will be over soon, and I’ll try not to post unless I have something truly post worthy. Eddie’s video is post worthy.
I’ve learned the time it takes to blog every day, could be creating time.
You bet I am. I thought my friend, Loretta, and sister-in-law, Pam, were having a paint party tonight at 7:00. No, it was at 11:00 this morning. They finally got in touch with me, and I got there in time to paint this.
Actually, I only painted the upper portion. I brought my dollop of unused paint home with me and painted the lower portion.
I even had enough to partially cover this.
I hate to waste paint.
Beware the monitor! This is what I wanted:
What I got:
It’s beautiful, and I’ll keep it, but it’s not what I wanted. The search for June bug green continues…
I think it might be best to buy paint in person, if you have a place.
P.S. My Wet Strength Tissue arrived!
I finally finished this little experiment. I cut a photograph of pretty wallpaper from a magazine. Then, I ran it through an embossing folder. My first failure was debossing the pretty side instead of embossing it. The second was rubbing that side with magenta paint. I got it too thick in places and it filled the spaces left by the embossing folder.
Still, I think this technique has promise, with a lighter hand with paint, and a right-side-up embossing folder!

I found where I had buried my new 5×7”gel plate! I got it out if the package and put it to work!
New gel plates are oily, so I expected bubbles in the paint.
I let both layers dry before pulling them. I used copy paper to pull, and a new brayer to paint! I am well pleased!

Here are photos of the experiments I conducted and the papers I created during The 100 Days Project. I concentrated on making collage papers.
TO BE CONTINUED…
I have been painting all kinds of media to use as materials for the 100 day challenge. I found two different rolls of medical tape in our first aid drawer. I placed a piece of each on wax paper so I could peel them off later. I painted each with Ceramcoat Gleams acrylic paint in Fuchsia PRL.
There was already gold metallic acryllic paint on the wax paper. When the tape dried, I carefully pulled it away from the wax paper. It brought the gold paint with it.
Any place on the tape that was sticky could be used to pull more gold paint off the wax paper.
I have got to think about how I can put this to use!
Today’s experiment:
Remember the black butterfly I cast in Sculpey Soufflé polymer back in January?
Its been baked, and today I painted it with Lumiere paints. I used a dry paint technique with angled bristle brushes. I used a liner on the body. 
I had lots of paint leftover, so I brushed some gold on a red piece I had molded, cast, and baked.
The Lumiere paints have lots of shine, so I think I’ll finish these with a satin glaze.
