Over the past few weeks, Cosmo Cricket and Tattered Angels designers have been combining products with some beautiful results. Today is my turn, along with Vicki Chrisman and Liz Hicks.
I experimented with some masks and Glimmer Mist. Unfortunately, it's hard to see the impact of Glimmer Mist from photographs! On the first card I used Cosmo Cricket Everafter papers (Something Old) and Suede Glimmer Mist, along with a Tim Holtz Music Notes mask.
The little tag is from PaperTrey Ink's Favor It Weddings set, and Latte pearls are from Ellen Hutson, LLC. For the silk flower, I used about a 10-12" length of ivory silk ribbon and ran a gathering stitch through only one side. I then gathered it and sewed the bottom in place. Cardstock is PaperTrey's Smokey Shadow and Vintage Cream, and ink is also Smokey Shadow. I used a Spellbinders Fancy Scalloped Pierceability Die for the bottom edge of the card.
Next I tried a different mask, Borderline, in conjunction with Patina and Meadow Green Glimmer Mists. Background papers are from the Cosmo Cricket Girl Friday line (Wednesday). In addition to spraying the paper with a mask in place, I also sprayed plain white silk flowers to coordinate. You can't see as much shimmer on the silk flowers as you can on paper, but it still dyed them beautifully. On the flowers, the dye tends to migrate toward the outer edges, leaving them a bit darker than the centers--a nice accidental effect. The Merci tag is from PaperTrey Ink's Mega Mixed Messages set, die cut with a Spellbinders Double-Ended tags die and trimmed.
