Hi Studio Calico friends- I'm so excited to be showing off some of the new Mister Huey's Color Mists and one of our new masks today! I was thrilled when I heard Studio Calico would be making masks - and I love the designs!
There are three designs in this release - a 4x6in intertwined circle background, a set of butterflies, and an ampersand. They're made of a thick plastic & are heavy enough that you can lay them on your project and mist over them without worrying about blowing them out of place! Once you're done misting, you simply wipe them clean and they're ready for the next color.
For my page today, I chose to focus on using the background mask. I started by trimming the die cut ledger paper from State Fair into mats for my photos, then used the circle background and a different color of Mister Huey on each one. From top to bottom, I used Custard and Dewey from Autumn Press, and Clay from the Memoir line. This is a great way to add mist to your page if you're new to using it - if you're not happy with the results, you can try again on a new photo mat without ruining your entire layout! I love the subtle detail & color it adds behind my photos.
(supply list : patterned paper - State Fair Die Cut Cream Ledger, State Fair Pie Contest, Countryside County Line, Studio Calico exclusive & Sassafras from Mind the Gap ; stickers - Addy Alpha Yellow, 6x6 labels blue ; wood button - Veneer Buttons ; mist - Mister Huey's Clay, Mister Huey's Custard, Mister Huey's Dewey ; mask - intertwined circles ; other - brads, yellow buttons, ticket and chipboard from Paper Moon and add-ons, washi tape, twine, tiny attacher)
I stacked my mats and photos along the right side of my layout, and taped them in place with washi tape. I can't wait to see what you'll do with the new Mister Huey's Color Mists and Masks!
Oh I can't wait to get my hands on those masks!

Beautiful layout, as always! I can't see the top 3 pics of the masks though. Is anyone else having the same problem?

Rockermorsan--I can't see the pics, either.
Nice layout! Wow, I really need those mists. I'm so behind the times because I don't have a single bottle of mist by any company!! I need to rectify that situation.

I can see all the pics. Maybe refresh/reload? Or close your browser and reopen?
Lisa!!! Love these and the pics are adorable. My "little" boy has been playing baseball since he was 4 years old, and now he's 17 and still playing. We're smack in the middle of the college recruiting process! Enjoy it......it's over in a flash. :)
