I feel like its been ages since i updated, and i am so sorry! We had some technical problems and were not able to access the blog for a while. But we’re back!! The last few months are best selling item has been Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist!! I have to say it is one of my all time favorite tools, and have not been surprised at how well this has been selling. At CHA , Heather was given the opportunity to become “Certified” in the art of glimmer mist! Today I am going to share EVERY tip, trick and technique you could possibly want! (P.S. Click on the picture to see a full size version)
Enjoy!!
Technique #1: Controlled Spraying:
Tip#1:
Spray your glimmer mist by only pushing half way so as to allow the glimmer mist to project in small quantities, creating a droplet effect. You can also achieve this by using your other hand to guide the sprayer gently down a little slower than a regular spray.
Tip #2:
Start by gathering your favorite Glimmer mist colors. Spray your mist at a close range so as to allow the glimmer mist to fully spray in a concentrated portion on to your page. By using mnay colors, multiple times you can achieve a beautiful background for your latest scrapbook page. The farther aways your sprayer is to the page, the finer the mist will be.
Tip #3:
Apply your glimmer mist in a fine mist to prevent large spots or dots of glimmer mist. To achieve this, you will place your project on a mat. Start your spray of glimmer mist on the mat, so that the beginning of your spray falls onto the mat instead of your project. You will then proceed to allow the tail end of of your spray falls onto your project in a fine application. You can continue to repeat this to build up a solid background that will be evenly distributed and without large droplets. Because of the nature of using a sprayer applicator, the force of the beginning of the spray gathers larger amount of glimmer mist in droplet portions and forces it out in the initial part of your spray. Allowing this part of your spray to fall onto your misting mat as opposed to your project allows you to use the tail end of the spray (the finer mist) to your benefit.
Tip #4; Using one color of glimmer mist, apply a heavy application to your project, this will completely and evenly add glimmer mist to your project.
Technique #2: Color Patterns:
Tip#5:
Use the same technique seen in tip #3, but use a variety of colors to customize the background. This will give you a soft background you can use for any occasion.
Tip #6
Use a variety of colors, and apply them at a close range quickly adding color to color. After you page is full of mist, it will appear like a pool of mist on your page. From here take a paper towel and lay it completely over your page and from the inside towards the outer edges; you will press your paper towel down, so to absorb any excess moisture. After the excess is gone, you will notice that the page will have the effect of a water colored background, where all of the colors are blended together to create a soft beautiful finish.
Tip #7:
Gather three glimmer mist colors. Preferably a light, medium and dark color. Stating with the lightest color on top, medium color in the middle and the darkest color on the bottom, layer the colors evenly across the page. Now blend the colors together by taking a paper towel. Starting at the lightest color, pull your paper towel down towards the darkest color. If you need to repeat this to continue to blend the colors, use a clean part of your paper towel, so to not contaminate your lighter colors with your darker ones. This will give you a blended effect that will smoothly add glimmer to any project.
Tip#8:
For this technique you will use a piece of stiff lace as a mask to create a faux lace page. You will start by laying a stiff piece of lace and lay it down on your page. You will want to make sure that your page and your lace are perfectly flat. To apply the glimmer mist use tip #3, to create a fine mist over your project. Make sure that your sprayer is about 8 inches away from your project to create your fine mist. Make sure to not over saturate, so you can create the crispest image. What is nice about using the lace and this technique, is that you are creating a beautiful faux lace page, but you also come away with a new colored lace that can be used on future projects.
Technique #3: Textures:
Tip #9:
For this technique, use a sponge to create a faux finished background. To achieve this you can use a natural sponge by applying glimmer mist directly to the sponge and then using the sponge as an applicator to your project. Depending on how saturated your sponge is with glimmer mist, your project can achieve multiple different types of effects. You can also layer colors together to create a faux stone, leather or worn look. Experiment with this technique to find a multitude of options.
Tip#10:
Use a variety of different styles of paint brushes to create different finishes. Since glimmer mist is essentially a water color, you can spray it into a paint tray of irectly onto your misting mat and use your choice of paint brush to create different effects. One of our favorites is to use a fan brush to dry brush glimmer mist directly onto projects. To dry brush means to start with a dry brush, and lightly add glimmer mist to the brush and then onto your project.
Tip#11:
For this technique, you will use white acrylic paint as a resist agent to customize your background. Since most acrylic paints offer a slick surface after they have dried, this allows glimmer mist that has been misted over the pain to “resist” or not adhere to the paint, creating a two toned effect on your project.
Tip#12:
Use any excess glimmer mist that has been sprayed onto your misting mat. Even if the colors have mixed together, you can use this glimmer mist to distress the edges of your project. To do this, take your project and drag the edges through the excess glimmer mist as to saturate the edges/ You can now take scissors or your finger ail and distress the edges. Because the glimmer mist is wet, this allows a much easier way to distress the edges. You can also apply other sprayed colors of glimmer mist to the edges by taking a paper towel, or baby wipe and pick up this excess glimmer mist and swipe it, blend it or layer it along the edges of your project for a vignette or additional distressing.
Technique #4: Glimmer Screens- Negative
Tip #13:
For this technique you will use your Tattered Angels Glimmer Screens with the Glimmer Mist to create a masked image. Start by laying down your screen on a flat surface so that it lays close and flat to your project. From here, create the fine mist technique forom tip #3, and apply a fine mist to the page. Use a pair of tweezers (we carry a pair of bazzill tweezers that would work great) to hold down the screen for additional support during the spray. Also make sure to hold your sprayer 8 inches away from your screen to create an even coat over the page. With your tweezers, pick up your screen (you can use your hand to support the screen while your tweezers pick up the screen) to reveal a crisp negative image. By negative image, it is meant that the area around the image is misted, and the image itself is vacant of color, or negative.
Tip #14:
For this technique you will be repeating the t3echniquefeatured in tip #13 by using Tattered Angels Glimmer screens with Glimmer mist. This time you prepare your page with a light color of mist, and then creating the negative effect from tip #13. What this will allow you, is that you can now customize your project ith two or more colors of Glimmer Mist, the first being the first color you misted onto your page and the sceond and so on being the colors that you mist over the top of your screen with. this again will create a negative image of your screen, yet offer a variety of more colors.
Tip #15:
For this technique you will be repeating the same technique from #13. This technique will create the negative image of the glimmer screen that you are using. the Glimmer Screen offers a base that yu can nw add a detailed image in with yur thin mount stamps. These stamps are created to compliment the coordinating glimmer screen to create a “screen-print” image. The stamps also come equipped with reinforced packageing that acts as a “thin-mount” to support your stamp as you use it. This solves the need for a stamp block and creates a self inclusive stamp set.
Technique #5: Glimmer Screen Postive Image
Tip #16:
For this technique you will be using glimmer screen to create a positive image. To do this, you will start by placing your glimmer wscreen off of your project and onto a splat mat or paper towel. You will layer a medium mist onto your screen as to give it a nice even coat. From there you will take your screen, flip it over (quickly, so that the mist doesnt fun to one corner) so that the glimmer mist side is facing down. Make sure to do this off of your project as to allow any excess Glimmer Mist to fall onto the mat and not your project. Now place your glimmer screen onto your project. With a pair of tweezers, press down on the screen. This will transfer the glimmer mist from the screen to your project. Because the tweezers have a fine tip, it is easy to press into delicate areas of the glimmer screen to transfer your glimmer mist.
Tip #17:
For this technique, start by applying a fine layer of glimmer mist in a light color to your page. Allow this to dry. From here repeat the technique in tip #16, with a darker color of glimmer mist. This will offer you a multi-colo9red image for your prject. If you decide to not wait as your first layer of glimmer mist dreis, your image will be distorted on the edges giving it a soft almost flocked look.
Tip #18:
Start with the technique featured in tip #16. From here, stamp over the image, with the coordinating stamp. If you are not sure which way to coordinate your stamp with the same direction of your screen you can easily stamp your image first with a water safe ink (such as Staz-On) and then proceed to use your screen on top of this image. This will help you understand the direction in which your screen should be positioned. This image will not only give you a detailed image, but will also highlight, or shadow the image depending on what color of glimmer mist is used.
Tip #19:
This technique will produce a “reverse transfer” technique. To achieve this, start by laying your Glimmer screen onto a splat mat. Spray a variety of colors onto the top of the screen. You will want to cover enough surface that will match the size of your project. After you have done this, take your page and lay it onto the screen and mist so that the entire page will lie onto the glimmer mist. Press down on your page right on top of the glimmer screen and hold it down as your press donw and out from the middle towards the edges. You will want to make sure that you press down on the entire page, while not moving the Glimmer Screen. From here, pick up your page and admired the image that has a “haloed” look.
Technique #6: Top Coats
Tip#20:
For this feature, you will be using one of the Tattered Angels clear coats to add a fine mist of glitter to your page. A clear coat Glimmer Mist has little to no dye base and will just add a glimmer to your project. You can select your clear coat by looking at the bottel, if when the glimmer is settled to the bottom your bottle becomes translucent, this would be an ideal top coat. If your bottle is clear, this would be a true clear coat and will not alter the colors in your project, yet will add a nice glimmer to it. If you find that there is a slight tint to your bottle thse colors can be used lightly to achieve a light glimer ginish or be built up layer, after layer to achieve a light tinting to your project yet still add an immense glimmer.
Tip #21:
By layering the clear coat one color on top of the other, you can create an immense glimmer to any project. Again with a true clear coat, this willnot alter the color of your project but will add a glimmer. A clear coat with a slight tint will add the same glimmer, but will continue to add a tinit of color to your project as you build up the layers of glimmer mist.
Tip #22:
For this technique you will use 2 colors of Glimmer Mist, one as a blender. For this page, use a lighter color of glimmer mist on ther top third of your page and a darker color of glimmer mist on the botom third. Taking your clear coat, now saturate the middle third so as to bring the top color and the bottom color together so that they can blend in the middle. To blend further take a clean paper towel and lay it over the top of the page. Gently press down to pick up any excess moisture and allow the colors to be pressed together.
Technique #7: Surfaces
Tip #23:
For this technique you will be using the glimmer mist on black cardstock. When using balck cardstock you can use any color of Glimmer Mist and the dyre base in the glimmer mist will be counteracted with the black allowing just the beautiful glimmer in the glimmer mist to be magnified. If you use the brand new “Chalkboard” Glimmer Mist on balck you will get some of the dye color that will lie on the black creating a semi-opaque finsih. This will still now offer a bit color on your balck.
Tip #24:
For this technique you will use glimmer mist to customize balck and white paper to your needs. Use any color of glimmer mist and transform your black and white printed paper to be customized to any project or color scheme.
Tip #25:
For this technique you willuse glimmer mist to alter the color of your pattern paper and manipulate it to your needs. With teh original glimmer Mist, you will find that you can take a printed pattern paper and transform the background to your color needs without altering the basic print of the paper. This is great for out dated paper that needs a new breathe of life.
Tip #26:
Use Glimmer Mist to begin altering embellishments to be customized to your needs. Takeing raw lace and white flowers, you can Glimmer Mist to customize the colors to the needs of your projects.
While going through my everyday routines, I’ve come across a few very CLEVER and super cute Christmas ideas. They don’t even necessarily have to be used for the holiday, but could be made using a variety of different products from any company.

Work out air bubbles by applying pressure. Let Dry.
3. Trim any excess paper off with scissors.
4. If your paper is not 2 sided or if you do not like the image on the reverse, use any metallic looking paper stock for the backing of the pendant by applying a thin layer of Diamond Glaze or Mod Podge over the back of the paper or photo you used for the pendant. Apply the metallic paper to the back of your pendant. Let Dry.
5. Apply diamond glaze to the back of the glass pendant to protect it and give it a glossy look. You may also use any sealant that dries clear (it does not have to be diamond glaze.)

As you are preparing your holiday gifts, try this great idea. Make your holiday bows using double-sided paper.
Cut double-sided paper to 3″ x 12″.
Cut into 1/2″ x 12″ strips and punch small holes near ends as well as every 3 7/8″ increments.
Slip end hole of strip onto brad.
Take next hole on strip, loop up towards brad, twist outward 180 degrees and slip onto brad.
Repeat for remaining holes and strips, then open prongs of brad to securely hold paper.
Adjust loops for even spacing.
If additional loops are desired and first brad is at capacity, use second brad to create additional loops then glue to center of first loop arrangement.

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.
Almost all of us have had an experience with Disney that makes us smile every time we remember it. And this new project, using SandylionDisney products!
We started out by using a white, tin band-aid box. I then covered the middle section with different papers from the sandylion Sweetheartline of paper. I then used Sweetie PieStickers, and backed then with a white cardstock. I cut the cardstock to the shape of the sticker. Then i added pop-dots to the back and stuck it onto the bottom of the middle section of the tin. I then took The essentials Black Alphabet stickers and spelt out “Disney Memories” in the middle of the tin. I then added little accents of the Fun Heart Essentials to the tin using pop-dots! And TA-DA your tin is finished!! Now for the Inside!
To the right is what the insert could look like. It is actually an accordion fold. I once again used the stickers from the front of the tin. I used pictures from a recent trip to Disneyland. I printed them as 2″x3″ photos. I then adhered then to the accordion fold, and added Bazzill paper and other stickers!
There’s your finished product!
Its a perfect project to display on empty shelves, or on your coffee table!
Today you are getting two videos!! The slice has been flying off the shelves! So I thought I would show a project and informational video for all of you.
This project is too adorable!! I love the line, and the way the incorporate the slice to make it perfect! What would we do without our personal die-cut systems!!
Hope you all are doing great!! And that you have a fantastic Saturday!!
