The other day I was given a new product to play with. 
Glimmer Mist is a new product on the market manufactured by Tattered Angels. Glimmer Mist delivers a fine mist of glimmer to your project at the same time adding beautiful color. To use the product, simply shake the spray bottle to disperse the glimmer pigment throughly. Aim at your project and lightly spray. Let dry, or aid in the process by the use of a heat tool and paper towel to blot, and embellish.
This card was created using three colors of glimmer mist: Snap Dragon, Olive Vine and Ginger Peach. The Snap Dragon delivers a more subtle glimmer than the other two colors. The Olive Vine and Ginger Peach both have a gold glimmer which can be very dramatic. The difference can be seen in the photo below. 
The product can be used on just about any type of porous surface. The Eiffel Tower in this card was created using a die cut from Creative Cuts and More, that I dabbed with a soft green acrylic paint and then misted with the Ginger Peach. I also created a little wall hanging in the style of one of my favorite artists, William Morris.
To create the plaque I used the flourishes brass stencil from Stampin' Up! that I just masked around and then misted with the Olive Vine. After creating all the greenery then I masked the image with Miskit, a liquid mask available at the craft store. After the miskit set up, I painted over the entire project with black acrylic paint. Removed the excess paint and mask and added my flower.
Overall, the product has some promise. The colors are beautiful and there are plenty to choose from. Just keep in mind that some have more sheen than others. It's acid-free and archival safe. Great for collage type projects.
There are some drawbacks, however to the product. It can be messy to work with, so protect your work surface, and wear gloves if you are concerned about your fingers becoming stained. It will clean up with soap and water for the most part. The manufacture claims that it can be used on fabric and acetate. It does work well on fibers that are not intended for the wash such as ribbons, and trims for your paper projects. If stamping on wearables, heat setting may be necessary, other-wise it washes right out.
I tried using it on acetate, however, unlike a solvent based product, it just beads up on the surface. If you don't mind a spotted effect and have the patience and time to keep re-applying and drying then this might be for you, but I don't have that kind of time in my schedule. And the beaded effect is not what I was going for.
I will continue to use this product, however, I will only be using it on paper and trim for my cards.
