Any TAG special requests, feedback etc....?

I am gearing up for my large spring order and wanted to see if there were any special requests that we could consider adding to our permanent line.

One-stokes, 50 gram rainbows and 2-color 50 gram combos.

Also, if there were any in particular that you thought didn't work at all(after you ordered it) and aren't worth reordering, let me know.

I would like a full line of tag splits, all in one kit, all square, just to get it over with so I can get rid of my rouds. Maybe a kit that has a few of the less used colors just in a rainbow cake (like all the flesh tones that way, instead of in full splits) and then the most popular rainbows...with it. I just want to bite the bullet and be done (maybe, the price might scare me!, but that is what I am thinking!)

I would LOVE it if you carried TAG mica powders, glitters, and TAG 2 sided daubers!

I love the two color splits the most but I also like the single colors too, eventually I want my entire kit to be all in the rectangle containers. As my rounds get used up and I add more colors to my kit I'll be buying the rectangles.

I'm always excited to see the new custom color combos in 1 stroke and rainbow cakes that you guys come up with =).

I would check out this link. We have the cases as well as several inserts that might meet your needs for a full palette of squares. All 50 grams all one-strokes or a combo of both.

That's smart. I'm headed there too some time this year.

This is basically showing my setup and what I did with my pearls. I did monochromatic splits of all the pearl colors. Rose/Blush - Blue/Sky Blue Green/Lime - Orange/Yellow (you have) - Purple/Lilac (you have)- Gold/Copper - Teal/Silver and then I LOVE Rose/Teal split (so pretty)

I took a picture of the homemade splits that I love and are "field tested":
"Pearl Unicorn" - Pearl: Teal/White/Rose/Purple
"Caribbean" or "Fiesta" (?) - Golden Orange/Orange/Purple/Teal (I'm going to use this in a Youtube soon, one of my favorites)...would look really pretty in a Pearl version Yellow/Orange/Purple/Teal
"Spring" - Pearl: Teal/Rose/Yellow (they mix so well making a nice purple and orange in-between)
"Leaves" - Black/Dk Green/Lt. Green/Yellow/White (A pearl version would be fabulous too)

Pearl version of the Stargazer Lily would be FABULOUS! Pearl: Wine/Rose/White

I know it's not TAG but here's my accessory NEEDS:

I REALLY want some black Snazaroo sponges as recommended by Kerry Ann Smith. I REALLY need some Lollipop sponge applicators. I REALLY need some Liquid Bling in Gold and Silver (almost out).

Fiesta Butterflies:




Pearl Unicorn Butterfly:


Pearl Teal & Rose Split:


I've got to go but I have more photos of the splits but I think they are on another thread.

I need to get a one stroke snake or yellow leaf, but have been holding off until payday. Any chance there will be a one stroke red white and blue cake soon? Something patriotic?

Lovely Denise!

Love the pearl unicorn, Denise!

The new dark pink

I would love a TAG split of Denise's pearl Rose/Teal and large Caribbean" or "Fiesta"
I would love a large cake of the flame.

Neon magenta/neon yellow. Pearl teal/pearl pink. 4-color with pearl gold/pearl blush/pearl rose/pearl berrywine. Denise's pearl unicorn.

Pearl 1-Stroke Patriotic
Pearl Red, Pearl White, Pearl Blue

Pearl version of the 1-Stroke Dragon

Pearl verson of the 1-Stroke Snake

I love Silly Farm's Art Cake Bolt, but would like a TAG 1-Stroke version of it, or even a rainbow cake of it!: http://www.sillyfarm.com/store/index.php?p=product&id=1956&parent=485
Purple, Teal, Light Green, Yellow
With a rainbow cake, I think it would be better as:
Dark Blue, Purple, Teal, Light Green, Yellow

On a patriotic cake I think there needs to be a color like silver between the red and white because on my homemade one it's too pink...I'll sponge it and see what can be done to keep the red RED. Maybe using pearl white so it's not so strong...

I think silver would look great and fit in nicely with the pearl colors.

Guilded was right about the pearl though...it did SOOOO much better in a swipe test that I was really surprised.

So I did tests and Pearl: Red/White/Blue was fabulous. I did repeated swipes (with a Snaz sponge) and never got pink. YAY!

I did regular Red/White/Blue and got pink stripes from the get go (sponging is usually cleaner than brush anyway) so I reloaded and it did better but still started to blend.

The other two swatches are with a silver stripe added. As I thought, it really helped the regular colors so there was no blend between the red and white. It looks really nice with the Pearls too.

So, I think a Pearl: Red/White/Blue is the best traditional choice but if you want to go regular colors then you should add a silver stripe between the red and white...it doesn't really interfere with the pattern and adds that stability.

Side-by-side of Pearl & Regular. You can see the regular "pink" already and thats a first swipe.


Here's many swipes with the pearl RWB...Fabulous!


Here's the second swipes of the silver versions of both. No pink appears when you add the silver to the regular set and doesn't really interfere with the visual RWB. You can see the silver going into the red a bit but it doesn't blend like regular white. And of course...the pearls look FABULOUS! LOL!

Awesome Denise. See another split in my future.

OMG! Love the pearl patriotic! I would SO buy it.

I remembered Lisa Joy Young's Rainbow cake and I tried it in Pearls but I think the rose and the orange are too strong for a "soft" rainbow. I tried different combos and put the teal and rose together to make purple but it was too strong. The last one I created I really like and I'll put it first on the photos. I think it turned into a lovely soft rainbow perfect for Spring. It's a lot like LJY's but I left out the orange and used a blush (much softer pink).

I'll post the other pictures too so you can see what you think.

Here's my rainbow: Pearl: Teal/Lilac/Blush/Yellow/Lime


Here's the pearl version of a LJY rainbow: Pearl Teal/Lilac/Rose/Orange/Yellow/Lime


Here's some other combos that I think didn't work:

The purple stripe created is too distinct- Pearl: Teal/Rose/Yellow/Lime


This is the one with no green but the rose is still too strong - Pearl: Teal/Rose/Orange/Yellow

Metina, I absolutely adore the Tropical Breeze custom 50 gram split you had done last year. I would love to get another one, mine is getting worn down.

I believe it was gold, neon magenta, neon yellow and teal.

Whenever I can convince a girl to try it, every girl that sees it wants it. I need to put a pic on my board using it because it is just so gorgeous.

A split of black and white, both flat and pearl.

Think I saw that one in the forum shop recently.

Yeah it's there. I just ordered one.

Oh good!! I know that back in November, someone was asking about it and we both looked and it wasn't there then.

So, Isabelle...where's the pictures?? I want to see this cake in action.
