Junebug ....How to make?

[andrewlamberson]

I searched the forum for a Junebug Recipe and couldn't find one.

Can you make Junebug from X2 colors?

Like Purple (4 drops) with some black (2 drops) and green flake in 1/2 cup ?

You should be able to Andy. I'd make a thin smake using ever so little of the x2 black....maybe use the original CCM black for this. Then I'd put just a smidge of purple in the smoke and stir it in well. That x2 colorant is super powerful, so again I'd maybe try making the junebug out of the original colors where there's a bit of forgiveness while you are mixing.

Andy. You can even put little strawberry in it also.  And I have added ocean flak to it also.   I use LC. Black grape in mine.

I would use the X2 Florida Grape.  We have June Bug on the way...

Jason is the Florida grape close to black grape.  Because I do a lot of black grape.

Since grape, Florida Grape, Black grape and purple are all the same color to me....  ....I think I'll hold off for the X2 Junebug!

I have a junebug colorant and love the stuff. Instead of messing around with colors, this is a great way to start real close to where industry starts. You just add glitter. I like the kelly green in mine, but some people like lighter greens and yet others will even go to blue. Try it all once you take the guess work out of the plastic color.

This is a good move on your part Jason....the junebug colorant. Thanks. It will be on my list.
