Ready for another fun challenge? My tag shown here uses mist that I mixed up using my Papertrey Ink Re-inkers. It's very Sea Glass-ish don't you think? My formula is as follows:
1/4 cup of rubbing alcohol
20 drops Limeade Ice
20 drops Spring Rain
40 drops Ocean Tides
5 drops Hawaiian Shores
And, I sprinkled in a bit of Prisma glitter just to see what would happen :).
I used the Cover Plate: Hexagon Die and created a stencil. I placed the stencil over white cardstock and then used my mist mixture and sprayed it onto the surface. Once I removed the stencil, I was left with what you see above. All that was left was to let it dry and then die cut it using the Mat Stack 5 and Mat Stack 5 Layerz dies to form a tag. Then I added stamping using the Happy Hexagons Mini Stamp set, Aqua Mist, Spring Moss, and Harvest Gold ink.
I die cut vellum butterflies using the Happy Trails and Love Lives Here dies and embellished them and the Tiny Tag using Harvest Gold and Simply Chartreuse felt and the Flipping Out dies.
You'll love cooking up your own mist mixture and I can't wait to see what you create!
Be sure to stop by Nichole's blog to see what she and the other Design Team members have created.

I do like your sea glass. I can't see the glitter, did it work? Seems like a cool idea but I would worry it would clog my sprayer. Thought your tag turned out really pretty.

Melissa, what a creative idea to custom mix different colors together! I completely agree, it looks just like sea glass!

That is so beautiful. I was thinking about the Hexagon Cover Plate when I was reading the other DT blogs, and now I know how well it works.
