Getting Misty

Good morning! I have been playing with my Glimmer Mists a lot lately. I only have 4 bottles, but they are getting a work out. I was inspired by the challenge over at Use Your Stuff last week, especially Joy's card where she made a mask with her Silhouette and then used Glimmer Mist on it. I have been dying to try that! I found a gate cut that I liked and cut it out at 5" square. It was hard weeding out some of the pieces where the design swirls, but I took my time and it was worth it. I used a repositionable spray adhesive to hold it on to the light orange-yellow card stock and them misted it with GM Coffee Shop. Once it dried, I distressed and inked the edges of that piece, as well as the orange piece with Memento Tuxedo Black. The stickers are Miss Elizabeth that I have had forever. The bling is Imaginence iRock candy. The flower and brad were in my stash, too. I loved this technique and now I want to try it on a layout! Have a great day!

Frosted Designs Card Sketch Challenge

Happy Friday!!! It really felt like it wasn't going to get here this week! The cool, crisp fall air has rolled into New England. It felt fabulous to sleep with the windows opened last night.

Speaking of cool, Frosted Designs is having their very first Card Sketch Challenge. I needed to make a card for a friend's birthday today, so I thought it would be fun to create one for the challenge at the same time. She loves the beach, so I went with that theme for her. It was my first time using the Tattered Angels Glimmer Screens that I got at CKC Manchester this year. Very fun!

Supplies:
Sentiment: SU! Sincere Salutations
Charm: The Card Connection
Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist: Riptide
Tattered Angels Glimmer Screens: Seaside
Patterned paper, buttons, ribbon, bling: stash

Hope everyone has a fantastic weekend!!

Inspirational Swap

Good morning and Happy Wednesday! We are half way to Friday! I am in an "Inspirational Swap" on one of the boards that I visit. For this swap, we have to make 2 different 4x4 layouts, each with an inpirational quote and each with at least 2 different techiniques. There are 6 people playing, so I have to make 6 of each design. You would think that such a small layout would be easy to create, wouldn't you?!? I found it difficult because I had so many ideas in my head and only a small space to create in! Here is what I came up with:

#1:
Quote:
To see an angel, you must see another's soul.
To feel an angel, you must touch another's heart.
To hear an angel, you must listen to both.
- Unknown

Supplies:
Patterned paper: DCWV Old World Stack
Glimmer Mist: Coffee Shop
Angel stamp: Paper Inspirations
Stampin' Up! Chocolate Chip ink
Gold Magic Mesh
Viva Peark Pen: Ice White
Brads and ribbon: Stash 

#2:
Quote:
You are a child of the Universe
No less than the trees and the stars;
You have a right to be here.
And whether or not is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
- Desiderata



Supplies:
Patterned paper: DCWV Glitter Stack
Glimmer Mist: Garden Fairy
Stampin' Up! In the Sky stamp set
Versamark ink
Ranger Turquoise Embossing Glitter
Dream charm: Making Memories
Bling: stash
