One of my favorite techniques to use with Clear Scraps acrylic is misting. The only downside to it is that you need to prepare ahead of time. Since acrylic isn't a porous surface you have to wait quie a while for the misting to dry. I usually mist the acrylic at night before I head to bed and then when I get up in the morning it is good and dry. Another tip is to use a sealant over the top. Most of the mists that are on the market are water soluble and just the slightest touch from something damp can smear it.
On this layout I used a metallic reddish pink from Tattered Angels, I have also used Maya Mist successfully. For those of you that may have Mr. Huey's they don't work, the mist never dried for me. I started with an XL Heart shape and used an older Heidi Swapp Mask on it to spray over.
Big thanks to Pink Paislee for contributing to the Clear Scraps DT. I was sent the Sweetness line, love the colors and the romantic, vintage feel of it.
I colored the chipboard alphas using Distress Ink.
Here is a close up shot of the misting.
I'd love to you all break out the mists and give them a try. They add a cool dimension to acrylic!
