Hi there, what you are looking for is odorless mineral spirits. I buy mine
at Michael's. I hadn't thought about putting the marker on a CD! That
makes so much sense, thanks for mentioning that.

It looks like I've missed some of the conversations on this group lately.
Wonder what happened that they didn't show up. Hmmm...

Question: Do any of you know what the liquid is called that you can use
with
Prisma pencils to blend them? I've never used it but have heard it's like
turpentine but not smelly. You color with the pencils and then brush this
liquid on top I guess.

I love my pastel palette and bought some chalk pencils last year but
haven't
used them yet (have to have all the toys, don't we?). I do lots of my
cards
with markers, rubbing the markers on to a CD and then an aqua painter to
pick up the color. I love the watercolor effect.

I've never used the Prisma pencils, and have only used chalk pencils
once at a workshop during a stamp convention. I have a palette of
chalk squares that I have used on occasion, though. I tend to use
markers over chalks for most of the coloring I do (and have dabbled
with the Twinkling H2Os a couple of times, too), but for some things,
the softness of chalk is just what the image calls for.

As an aside, I have in-progress cards for both of you (Missy & Kare)
sitting in my craft room. Baby stuff and spring gardening (taking
advantage of the sunny days in between spring rains) and the usual
housework have kept me out of the craft room, but I hope to get them
out soon!!!!!
