Custom Wink of Stella Colors

               +          

Is your Wink of Stella all used up????  Not so fast -- don't throw it away!  There is still lots of shimmer left in it -- it just won't come out anymore.  Follow these steps to get more shimmer + create your own custom Wink of Stella - in Stampin' Up! colors of course.

Work on a protected surface and....

         

1. Remove Cap.
2. Carefully remove insert cartridge by lifting up on the black circle and lay it down on paper towels.         
3. Fill barrel about 1/2 way, with rubbing alcohol.
4. Add several drops of your favorite ink.  It will take about 7-8 drops to see the color.  Remember, it will be mixing with the silver shimmer, and the lighter the ink, the more you'll need.
5. Replace cartridge and shake well.  Prime it by using it on scrap paper before applying to your project.

Now it's ready to use.  The example below was done with a Highland Heather Wink of Stella on Whisper White cardstock.
