Two things about this type of iridescence. One, it sinks.So t's best as a thin top coat or put it down first. And two, I made the same mistake you did at first. I color matched the sparkles to coordinate with my color choice. But what that does is take away that color from the result. Red on red, blue on blue, etc.cancels the corresponding glitter. Put the one with blue on a green resin. Put the red on a golden yellow, do a contrasting color like purple resin with the gold. That's why the black looked so amazing- it showed all the colors.I actually learned this doing nail polish art for my daughter, lol. It translated well for my artwork. Happy pouring I LOVE your channel, and the molds are very pretty.

I would keep going, paint on the Dragonfly glaze on top, I love my Dragonfly glaze. I paint it over the color shift paint, awsome effects. A little extra drying time is advised between coats. Love your butterfly. Love your impulsive changes. Presentation is so great, you have it down pat. Thank you!

Just a heads up - don't use the alcohol wipes on your hands, the alcohol will take residue into your skin. My son is an aviation engineer and that's the first thing he told me when I started using resin for my artworks. Baby wipes are much better and safer. :)

You really do such wonder work. I hope you never change a thing you do on this channel. Is such a wonderful thing to be able to go thorough every step with you. Congrats on another beautiful creation

I use the dragonfly glazes over my dried acrylic pours for a bit of shine and pizzazz. Then I varnish. They look stunning that way. Love your butterflies 🦋💛!

Tomorrow (Aprip 10) is my 67th birthday. So as a gift to me I bought myself your butterfly mold. So excited, can't wait to get it! Thank you Julie💛

Actually you add the glaze powder with resin and mica or pigment and it gives amazing colors to the whole item in the mold .. not only a top coat .. tried it before and it’s like magic .. good luck 👍

Hi Julie! Yes of course I watch your videos! You’re one of the first you tubers I started watching 2.5 years ago! ❤️ And yes one squirt should be good, if you still have lots of bubbles after 5 min or so I would give another squirt - a light mist 😊 Good for you for restraining from torching lol

Julie, I think combining the feather technique with the color shift is your next project. 😆 I'd love to see that!!

I agree; I love how she takes it to the next level. It’s been a fun journey watching her new projects.

I always enjoy your videos. The fact that I also learn is a bonus. Thank you for the effort, time and money you dedicate to your channel and viewers. Also for making your incredible molds and having them available for your fans.

The mould is fantastic, love, love, love it 😊. I think you should make a bird one since you have such great affection for them. The butterflies came out beautiful even though they weren’t quite what you wanted. I’m looking forward to the next try 🥰

I did this same thing using the Dragonfly glaze on a mermaid tail last summer. It cured white in the resin and I thought it was ruined. I couldn’t bear tossing it because I had worked hard on scales so I just set it aside. The white slowly cleared up. It took months to clear up - not even kidding - but it gives a nice shimmer once it’s completely clear. I haven’t done it again since I don’t want to wait months to see if it may clear, but thought I’d throw in that info!

What if you paint your mould first with the dragonfly glaze, let it dry and then pour your resin in 🤔💜

Also - just use the paint and resin - don't use the pigments if you want to put it right in the resin. A few drops is all you need - you will get more of a transparent shift effect though so if you want something more opaque then I'd use two different resin mixes. One with just the colour shift paint, then do another with a pigment. Its really quote pretty when you swirl them around.

Nice thing

I love the butterflies 🦋 and hearts 💕 💞 ♥️ 💓 💖 ❤️

I just want you to know this colourshifting effect is available in powder form. Look for duo/ multi chrome or holographic powder the flakes you showed in powderform are called unicorn powder, some are micas others are synthetics.

I know it didn’t work out how you were hoping, BUT the effect you got reminds me of an opal effect. So if you wanted to do a faux opal, this would work 😊🙏

I love to listen to you just talk to us as you go. It's like I'm getting to hang out with a resin buddy ☺️ I made charms and things with epoxy when I was a kid and now my daughter makes resin art and has enlisted me as her partner so I'm watching all the videos to learn more. Thanks for sharing your techniques ❤️

I love all of your art! I love your presentations and instructions, so well layer out, organized and clear. Your excitement and spontaneous musings take us all into your adventures. It’s fun to go back to your earlier videos too. BTW do you have a video on how you made these amazing molds, I case I missed it?

They look so pretty you should do some of th butterflies with swirls you did on your hearts

Thank you for doing this experiment, I’ve been wondering this for a while. I think I may paint it on then topcoat with resin. I learn such a lot from you guys and it saves us wasting product and money.

I painted on mine did a thin spray of clear coat then float coated. Worked beautifully

That mold is awesome! With the color shift, it really shows up best on black. So, if you did all of the butterflies black and then used the different color shifts you'd definitely see the shift. And yes, not in the resin, just on top. These are still really beautiful.

I am new to resin and I like watching your videos has you always explain everything on what your doing and what your using, you take us on a journey through it all. As there is alot of videos out there what are speeded up with no explaining. Really love the butterflies as well

Nick Zammeti, Evan and Katelyn, jedrek29t are all worth a watch. Those 3 and Julie are the only resin artists I watch but each has their own style and do different things with the resin.

Dragon fly glaze works best with a painted black background . Add the glaze on top with several coats to see the shimmer. One coat isn’t enough.

I use the Dragonfly glaze on lots of colors, I made a grid with lots of color combo even color shift paint, any combo I could think of. Great way to save paint and ideas

I love my dragonfly glazes. I stamp dragonflies on a laminator pouch and paint on inside with glaze. Then run thru laminator. Looks beautiful

Awww, you're so sweet! I'm sure they're so rapt with their hearts!!! 🤣 "Too much alcohol isn't good for anybody"! Too true!! Incredible butterflies, love them, thank you for another fantastic video.

The thing I like about using these paints instead of glitter is that because you've mixed in with the resin it doesn't fall like glitter. Not to mention that it adds a little bit of sparkle to any resin colour If you mix it all in at the same time.

I have that same paint and the only success I had was on a canvas and flood coated it with resin. Lol but I’m gonna sit back and eat my rice crisps while you work. I always looking at your videos. I’m up to around 40 videos now. I’m so happy. I just need to get as good as you now. 🥰

You need some pipettes instead of using the cups for projects like these. Makes getting resin into the small spots soooo much easier. Plus it gives you a bit more control.

Wouldn’t it be beautiful to make a big round plate/tray using these. Maybe with a clear and white thin base, then the butterflies, then a clear sparkle layer on top. Maybe with some small flower or heart shapes interspersed. Doing that with snowflakes would also be pretty. You’re very creative!

I was talking to you through the screen to spray with alcohol like kanella does and you listen LOL so funny

I have used the dragon glaze in resin before and used it as a coating and it came out clear with the dragon glaze color. It is very pretty.

Oh Julie, I adore the sun catchers you got, I absolutely love purple! And the mold is pretty awesome as well!

They are beautiful,and I love the silver line around them 🥰

Thanks for sharing all your Artworks ♥️♥️♥️

The way to get these to shift like crazy.. u have to paint it on and let it dry then resin over it.

Love the molds and the colours are fab!!

The dragonfly glaze is gorgeous on white!! I use it in almost all my pours!

This makes me happy!!

Wow you can really see it in the black. They are all beautiful Julie!!

I love your art and your presence!

I am just starting the resin journey!! Your work is beautiful 😍!!

Oh, you grabbed this little magpie's attention with color-shift in the title!!! I think they are lovely - the solid colors are so beautiful! That green is so beautiful! That deep green is (one of my) daughter's favorite shade. Love the experiments! Would love to see a 'live' resin pour, but then we would have to wait for part two to see the unmoulding!! Thank you, Julie! Take care and stay safe!!

I've been watching your videos for painting and resin and love it. Looking at buying some of your molds. Keep up the beautiful art and I love your reaction at seeing something beautiful, my family says I sound just like you.

Julie, I am ecstatic! I received your butterfly mold today. I can't wait to start to make beautiful wind chimes and coasters. Thank you so much for making these wonderful molds 💛

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this new mold. Now this made me want to try resin for sure and this is gonna be the first mold I buy💜💚🦋 They came out soooo beautiful even with the glaze not cooperating 😊😁

Amazing artwork! Thank you for sharing!!! 💥💥💥

They turned out real pretty

They look beautiful. I love all of them.

beautiful❤ Julie I used the glaze in acrylic paint that I colored the resin and made some coasters. the glaze gives beautiful sparkle to the paint in resin.

I genuinely love the colouration.

Love the butterflies!

Beautiful! Love love love them

I think they all turned out pretty,there’s something about the black one that I really like 😍

Gilly kube puts these glazes in her resin top coats for her paintings, they look pretty

Very beautiful artwork.

I like them outlined! The milkiness might be because the glitter is in clear. I would try one with it stirred into the main color. Might look less milky. They are beautiful. My mother loved butterflies. I think the butterflies and hearts do great together and would make an excellent mobile.

You are very crafty and I get some really cool ideas from you!!! I love these!

I love your mold. The butterflies look so pretty

Love these butterflies!

Nice mold, beautiful butterfly 🦋 ♥️

They are really pretty and sparkly💕

Everything is so gorgeous

Absolutely beautiful ❤️

They are beautiful 🤩

They are fabulous

I like those!

I love them all!

Love the black one 😍

Love the butterflies

Still turned out gorgeous!!!

Very pretty 🦋

Thanks for sharing in detail👍

I just bought a mold Julie. l! Looks beautiful

I like the idea of outlining them in the silver... they came out pretty Julie!!

They are really pretty, shame they didn’t work as you expected but they are very pretty. Looking forward to seeing the sun catcher when you do it, I think that will be stunning. Stay safe love and hugs xx

Really beautifu, looking forward to seeing you make suncatchers Enjoyable video as always 😁

Now I thought I was inventing this a week ago... considered it a fail bc the shimmer didn't shift like I thought it would 🙃 behold, you beat me to it and had a similar result 😅 my next thought was to paint a piece... alas you have a video already and I'm going to watch it 😆

They all were glissenty except the red one. I think they had some changing. It will be interesting to see what happens when you paint the top color. Love how you go the extra mile until success. Thank you for your perseverance.

Pipettes work really well for getting resin into narrow spaces of molds

I love butterflies 🦋! They may not have shifted for us, but they sure are pretty!!!

I think I tried this glaze in the resin once. Didn't work went cloudy. May have used too much. It was the full spectrum. They do have amazing sparkle.❤️🙏🏻❤️

Gorgeous

I love watching your videos, just found them tonight. I have always wanted to do resin, tried in once about 5 years back...lets say it did not go the way I thought. I did something wrong. Lol ...Never give up. I love the 6 large butterfly mold, reminds me of my daughters' tattoos on her back, they represent her children. How much would a mold like that be? I also have so many ideas going on in my head. I could see these butterflies as a wall decoration in my daughter's house. Keep doing the videos...LOVE THEM...I WILL KEEP WATCHING! AMAZING!!!

Beautiful ❤️

Very pretty.

Ive seen people "paint" in molds with powders, then pour in resin and it works well.

I would definitely try the powder colors, you would get the effect you desire, Mica powders are great.

So the biggest thing with the color shift, or holographic pigments, is that you need directional light to bring out the sparkle and color shift. Your light in your studio is pretty diffuse, from what I can tell.

The dragonfly glaze goes really good in resin blooms

I think they are very pretty I'd make some tall leaves to go with and use as a wall deco for bathroom.

Petra Jongbloed makes a very nice bright red pigment powder. Like a Christmas read.

Yes I agree with other person I've seen this used in resin. They always paint it on the mould 1st. And if you don't want opaque I've seen it done with alcohol inks on top comes out beautiful

So pretty

From what I read, the Dragonfly Glaze is to be painted on the surface directly.

i love your molding

Very pretty

Turn one butterfly over and try painting them on
