Needing a Dark Purple blank

[toyotaman]

I've talked about casting in the past but being so busy I just cannot find the time but I had a request for a Solid Dark Purple pen. I cannot find a blank so what would I need to get in order to make one myself. Maybe this is what I need to get me started in casting. Can I get the maretials at Hobby Lobby? I know I need a mold, PR, hardner, but what about the color? Some kind of powder? Would they have the purple coloring powder? Anything else?

There's one called "Orchid Summer" which I think is just called Orchid now on the Costal Scents site that should do the trick. Jonathon mixed me up a block about a month or two ago and it looks perfect!

I have a metallic purple blank from Exotics. PM me your address if you want it.

EB has one called African Violet Blossom. It's dark purple and awesome!

Here is a pen I made using that blank.

Look at R & B crafts. They have a couple of tru-stone in very deep purple.

Thanks for the replies. I have got in touch with a friend that lives near me and he is making me one. I still hope to learn this. I'm working on making me a mold from sliicone. I'm going to get some Simular41 from U.S Composites. Who has the best prices on Mica powders?
