one of my favorite Ranger products is their paint dabbers...
I use them in almost every class I teach...
in one way or another...
I LOVE the paint, but I REALLY LOVE their ease of use & the NO MESS factor...
and no brush to clean up...
I can't live or teach without these 4 colors...
oh...
I like snow cap white too...
to activate the paint flow, just remove the clear cap, press onto the craft sheet & LIGHTLY squeeze...
the bottle is remade & so much softer...
just a light squeeze does the trick...
it's a small detail...but very effective...
they are awesome for painting chipboard & grunge...
and there are tons of colors to choose from, so there's one to coordinate perfectly with any project...
the dabbers are PERFECT for altering lots of different things...
today, I'll show you some altered flowers...
this cutie is a resin flower from Maya Road...
I loved them so much that I bought 500...
yep...it's true...
isn't it CUTE?
I bought LOTS because I knew the dabbers would be perfect for customizing them, to fit my workshop projects...
here they are altered with the 4 colors listed above...
just that little dab of paint totally ( & EASILY) changes the look...
add a gem in the center if you'd like...
the same magic can be used on tim's ideology foliage flowers...and the leaves too...
it's the perfect extra touch...
and speaking of flowers...
I may have said a time or 2...
(ok...500)...
that I see flowers in lots of odd things...
here's an example...
what do you see?
just turn the wings upside down...
add a Maya Road scroll...
tada...
a cool flower...
with those cutie bingo numbers...
one more thing...
the GOOD 4 letter word...

Love the drawer you keep your dabbers in .. I never thought of that :) Beautiful flower !!
Cool examples! TFS
gorgeous and great idea. i will have to get some of the new bottles.
Stunning! Thanks for the tips!
I so agree with you, Wendy! I LOVED the paint dabbers! I need to get more colors - I've about worn out my Pitch Black & Gold ones. *lol*
Love all of the flowers ... very pretty!
Ooohhhhh ... a sale, huh? Great news!
I love the dabbers too, but I have all the old bottles, and they are not as much fun to use - I had to laugh when you said gentle squeeze .... anyway - maybe some day - when they work they are wonderful!
Love what you shared with us - the tulip made with the wings is very cool!
now off for me to make art!
Sandra
Love the paint dabbers...when they work. They are so easy to use on everything, like you said. Cool flower! Just got a full box from EP the other day. Now to make the time to play in my art room. :)
Glad to hear the new bottles are easier to use - I have lots of trouble with mine too. Love the effect on the flowers and stuff you've used, amazing.
Creative tulip! Love my daubers too, keep them in a drawer similar to your, upside down, its amazing how they perform!
I only have black, white, copper, gold and silver daubers and love them! The flower is to die for, you are just so smart and creative!!
Gloria

GENIUS, my friend, GENIUS!!!
Nice work. Would never have seen a flower in the wings! Thanks for the tips on the daubers. Have a great weekend!
Oh, how fun! I LOVE the winged flower.
I love the paint dabbers, too! I have several of Tim's craft spinners to hold my blending tools and I also keep my most frequently used dabbers (black, gold, white & silver) upside down in the clip "arms". The resin flowers look great touched with paint, and the winged flower is gorgeous! You are GENIUS!
