the magical world of mists!

hey there!
today i'm on the sweet stamp shop blog! and i'm comparing different ways to use mists! 
we all are familiar with spraying with a stencil/directly onto the card or splattering, but here are some other ways to use mists! 

first i used the mist like paint and brushed it directly onto my background:


LOOOOVE this people! i am currently OD-ing on a few obsessions and gold is one of them!


all of the images in my cards are from the yummy love stamp set, and the custom sentiments were all created with the monogram alpha stamp set! don't those little pears look FUN against the gold! i think so!

then i sprayed the mist onto an embossing folder before i embossed my cardstock. THIS IS A WINNER people! i am really digging this look!!


and those little oranges?? i mirrored one of them so they could looking at each other! ha ha! i tell you, you can't go wrong pairing any color with grey! i LOVE grey right now! 


lastly, i tinted some of my white embossing paste with a pink mist to create pink embossing paste! yay!! love this!!



i thought the banana images would look great against the pink! it totally reminds me of a strawberry banana smoothie! yum! 


i hope this has inspired you to try out some new ways to use your mists! and if you have any other ideas - send them my way! ha ha! i love trying new things! :) 
don't forget to check out the sweet stamp shop blog too! 
enjoy!

  5. All three of these are awesome and have me thinking that I may have to dust off the mists that have been taking up space in my drawer and have a little play with them...
