I thought I'd continue the Crate Paper love today and share another love of mine - misting! Have you tried it yet? There are so many possibilities. I'll be the first to admit that I can be a lazy scrapper. I want great results but without a whole lot of work. Misting my layouts in various ways achieves that for me!
You can see a couple of misting techniques that I've used on this layout:

To create the canvas tag, I placed a chipboard heart on the tag to use it like a stencil. Then I misted until the tag and chipboard was entirely saturated. I let it dry for a few minutes before removing the chipboard. (If you look at the layout above, you'll see that I used that same chipboard heart as an embellishment on another part of my page):

I also love to spray my background paper with mist to "dirty it up" a bit. You can use as little or as much as you like. To avoid getting mist everywhere, I like to use a pizza box. I place my paper inside and spray as I like. You can see the pink mist on my background paper in this close-up:
