Glimmer Mist, a Tattered Angels original product, is a quick and easy spray that delivers just a touch of glimmer in a fine mist to make all of your projects shine. Glimmer Mist puts an end to messy, clumpy, and time consuming conventional glitters with over 50 colors to choose from so finding the right one for your project is easy. Glimmer Mist was made by a scrapbooker with the scrapbooker in mind and is water-based, archival safe, acid-free, and non-toxic. Glimmer Mist is safe for and adheres to all types of materials including paper, acrylic, metal, and fabric.
Jaimie took this plain craft wood jewellery box and coated it with an even spray of Coffee Shop Glimmer Mist giving it a lovely deep colour and fantastic shimmer. Decoration was simple by spraying Honeydew and Moonlight Glimmer Mist onto both large and small Tattered Angels Chip butterflies and then stamping them with the Hero Arts background stamp. Inking the edges and layering the chip elements on top of the lid with Heidi Swap Florals and BG flourish edge stamps keeps the project simple and stunning
Chris said she loved playing with the Glimmer Mist. She chose the colours Juneberry Wine and Antique Brass to experiment with. Chris dug up some of her old Pressed Petals Chip Chatter letters and made them funky and new with the Glimmer Mist. Chris sprayed the Juneberry Wine Glimmer Mist onto the letter. For the large 'Z' Chris held the sprayer closer to the letter and the result was a darker colour on the letter.
For the smaller 'Z' she held the sprayer further back and also used a paint brush to wipe off excess spray. Chris also lightly sprayed both letters with the Antique Brass Glimmer Mist to give them an extra sparkle. She then stamped the Hero Arts Old French Writing stamp onto the chip chatter letters using a brown ink.
Chris also used a VersaMark resist technique on the chipboard butterfly. She used the Old French Writing Stamp with the VersaMark ink cube to stamp onto the butterfly. Once that was dry she then sprayed over it with the Juneberry Wine Glimmer Mist. The result was a little different on the butterfly as it has a shiny surface opposed to the Chip Chatter letters which have a rougher surface.
Finally Chris also altered a Heidi Swapp flower to co-ordinate with the rest of her layout by spraying it with the Juneberry Wine Glimmer Mist.
This classic black and white photo of Donna's youngest daughter needed a no fuss background to really make it pop! Donna used the fabulous new Glimmer Mist in Graphite to create her own patterned cardstock simply by laying a piece of Junkitz felt fusion over the cardstock as a makeshift mask. The result is something completely original and unique. By adding a little doodling to highlight the masked area, Donna's layout has become something more than just a stock-standard page. This page will be treasured.
It's well known that Suz never misses an opportunity to create a rainbow, and when she was sent a stash of little sample bottles of Glimmer Mist in a range of colours, it was just too tempting. Spraying it in small areas over a length of cream Queen & Co Celtic Felt Fusion produced exactly the effect she was after - a beautifully muted and slightly sparkling rainbow length of felt.
She also had a field day spraying it on a range of Tim Holtz Grungeboard butterflies and alphas and loved the way the Grungeboard absorbed the colour but the very fine glitter the Glimmer Mist contained settled into the crevices of the embossed Grungeboard, accentuating the design.
Finally Suz exagerated the dreaminess of the layout by spraying directly onto the SEI Chickadee patterned paper creating subtle areas of light and shade.
Sometimes you just need that right shade of paper to finish off a layout perfectly. When you don't have the correct shade in your stash, Glimmer Mist is fabulous to use - just whip up your own piece to complete the layout. Simple spray the Glimmer Mist over a piece of white paper or card, leave to dry and adhere into position as Mel has done here. It gives such a luscious, glimmery feel to the page.
Nic used Glimmermist on many different surfaces and it really added to the vintage-feel of the Cosmo Cricket Fleuriste range.
She has used it to colour white ric rac, to add a thin layer over the die cut flowers and also to cover chipboard pieces.
Nic's favourite thing about the Glimmermist was that you have contol over the opaque-ness of the mist and best of all it sits on top of non-porous surfaces. It left a gorgeous sparkle on ricrac and chipboard without being completely absorbed.
Add a touch of glamour to your handmade cards by giving them a quick spray of Glimmer Mist. Caz used Antique Brass which gave this Crate Paper card a subtle all over sparkle that is pretty without being over the top.
To create this effect on a chipboard frame, Chris used the Li'l Davis paint to randomly brush over the frame. When the paint was dry she then sprayed the Juneberry Wine Glimmermist and Antique Brass Glimmermist over the frame. Once it was dry Chris used the Old French Writing stamp with brown ink to stamp onto the frame.
