I've been experimenting with making my own spray mists and used them for the background of this card and another card I'll be posting next. Check out my blog to find out how I made the sprays.
I die-cut two snowbanks and added a little sparkle along the tops. I die-cut a five tier tree and coated it with more clear glitter glue. Lots of sparkle on this card, but hard to see in the photo.
Beautiful card, Loll. I make my own spray mists as well. I just use distilled water, a little cheap acrylic paint, and perfect pearls. Have you ever tried the saran wrap technique with your spray mists? Spray your paper generously then scrunch up some saran wrap on it and wait for at least an hour before you remove it. I make them then cannot bring myself to use them for a card and cover up all the neat designs it makes. I must do it tho as they aren't doing me any good in my paper bin. You have to spray quite a lot on as your saran has to stick to it or it doesn't work.

I look forward to all your CAS designs, Loll! This one is fantastic and love the color of that background! The hills are beautiful with that hint of glitter. I love the simplicity of this one!
