Today we bring you a mixture of two of our favorite companies. When getting this idea, we were so excited to see that imaginsce loves tattered angeles as much as we do. This project is a super cute idea, would make a perfect christmas gift for neighbors and friends. Choose your favorite holiday treat to put in the jar, to personalize it. And can i just say i LOVE the use of the glitter mist!! Enjoy this idea guys!!
The jar I picked up from my local scrapbook store, I believe it’s from Making Memories and I love that’s really plastic and not glass. But you can recreate this same look for any jar of your choice.
Trim circles from assorted Polar Expressions papers. We cut a 4″, 3 1/2″, 3″, 2 1/2″ and 2″ circles.
Spray each circle with Glimmer Mist from Tattered Angels. We used both brown and green colors to create our flower.
Crinkle circles up in hands and then unfold.
Gently roll the edges of the circle a bit and set aside to dry.
Once all pieces are dry, punch a hole through center. Using the iTop Tool, punch and small brad to create small (16mm) brad. Place iTop brad through center of circles and adhere to top of jar lid.
Punch out the chipboard piece you’d like to use and remove adhesive from back (by mounting to scrap piece of paper or carefully peeling adhesive layer from the back of the sticker). Spritz chipboard piece with Glimmer Mist and let dry.
I thought i might give a few more project ideas , as well as an FAQ video for those of you who already use Glimmer mists. I think these projects help show how versatile this product is and how you don’t only have to use it for scrapbooking. While making a Halloween wreath this year, Heather was having a difficult time finding fake black roses, so instead of doing with out, or spending way too much money on them, she bought some fake white roses and sprayed them with Raven Glimmer Mist and created her own black roses. This is just one idea of how glimmer mists can work for any project you might have!!
While at CHA this summer we picked up an amazing company, not new to the scrapbooking world, but new to Whatwefound. This company had a new make and take every day and me and Heather made SURE we stoped by daily. There product is something that may be a little advanced in the scrapbooking world, can can EASILY make any project look more difficult. They call there product Glimmer Mist, and if you would like more information on it you can find the info on our website or on Tattered Angels website. We learned this technique while at CHA and i thought i would share it with you! Even though Halloween is over these cards can be made using any color for any holiday or occasion.
You will use glimmer screens. cardstock and glimmer mist in this project. Feel free to add any other embellishments, Anabelle from Tattered Angels created this idea and used certain.
First, spray a Glimmer Screen with Glimmer Mist. I made three cards. I used Haunted Shadow, Meadow Green and Jack O’Lantern to spray the screens.
Next, I carefully removed the screen from the scrap paper I’d sprayed it on, and layed it onto a clean paper. With the glimmer side facing up still.
Then, I carefully placed my cardstock onto the wet screen. You have to be careful not to move the paper around and cause a smear.
Finish the sandwich by adding the embossing mat and covering with the white plate. Run it through the Wizard and then peel off the Glimmer Screen. You’ll have a beautifully embossed, glimmery image that looks just like a letterpress!
It’s really hard to capture the shimmer and embossed look in a photo, but I think you can get a good idea from this shot.
Because I loved the design and colors of my embossed images, I decided on a simple card layout. I matted the images on black cardstock, sprayed some Halloween Calling Cards with Glimmer Mist (Indian Corn, Bronze and Lime Twist)Â and adhered them with foam adhesive. A few gems added just the right touch of bling.
