And I REALLY wanted to have a sample up for you...but alas, it didn't happen. My challenge was to be a lift and a technique. You would lift me (hence the need of a sample) and get messy with mists. But not spraying the mists. Oh no...that would be way to easy and just not fun enough for a weekend project!!! I want you to take the top off the bottle and shake/drip/tap out the ink (from the bottle top/straw part) onto your page for the random dot look. Practice on scrap paper to get the look you want. Now I know...some of you are on a budget/spending freeze. So...I have a link to make your own mists from paint. You can also use your ink refills to make the mist. Now...I'm also hearing you say I don't have a spray bottle....excuses, excuses! Ha...mix in a bowl and use a fork. Be creative! I know you can do it. Link for making mists from paint (it is about altering Prima flowers, but the paint/mist part is in there also) --> (HTM) http://scrapbookingfromtheinsideout.blogspot.com/2010/02/great-tutorial-on-altering-prima.html (HTM) http://scrapbookingfromtheinsideout.blogspot.com/2010/02/great-tutorial-on-altering-prima.html and another link to make mists: (HTM) http://melstampz.blogspot.com/2011/03/making-your-own-colour-shimmer-sprays.html (HTM) http://melstampz.blogspot.com/2011/03/making-your-own-colour-shimmer-sprays.html So that is the technique....here is the layout I'm lifting --> (This is a layout by Lisa Dorsey that I found on Pinterest) She did not get messy, but imagine the results if she had!

LOL #Post#: 2738-------------------------------------------------- Re: SNC Weekend Blitz --> 3-30-12 By: tallulah Date: March 30, 2012, 5:40 pm --------------------------------------------------------- I have used those little bottles of paint (- Apple Barrel or whatever, and just drop some paint on wax paper,cut it with water, go out on the porch, dip a brush and then run your finger across the bristles. Spatters great. Fine or heave depending on how close you are. Should be able to 'drop" it.... #Post#: 2739-------------------------------------------------- Re: SNC Weekend Blitz --> 3-30-12 By: jscraps4u Date: March 30, 2012, 5:44 pm --------------------------------------------------------- [quote author=nfaband link=topic=203.msg2737#msg2737 date=1333146867] Very cool ... love the LO, the misting stuff, not so much, but that's just boring old me.

I took some liberties, mainly because I did not read the directions correctly. i made the mist with paint and water. Then I repeatedly dragged a loaded fork across the c/s. Afterward I realized I needed to splatter the mist paint. so I went back with a straw and did that. After inspection I decided I liked it that way with both techniques, so that's what I used. Also I completed the OLW challenge with this as the quote says, "Autumn arrives in early morning, but spring at the close of a winter day. Elizabeth Bowen" Thanks for looking!!!
