Video tutorial: Color Spritzer
Don't you love the holidays?! I've been listening to Christmas music all day! Love it!This morning's card and tutorial was a request from a few weeks back. How do you use the Color Spritzer? Well, here's a quick how to on just that!
I mostly use the spritzer to just get a soft texture to the card stock. I generally do not use the spritzer as a means to create a focal point on a card. The tool has been around for a quite a while, so if it's over-used it can easy make your card look dated. By careful with it--less is more!
I've also wondered if you could use the Color Spritzer with a Versamarker. Does anyone know? It would be awesome to use it to add little speckles of glitter! If you know if this works (or doesn't work), leave a comment and let the rest of us know. :)
Thanks all! And have a wonderful day!

Yes! You can use the Versamarker with the spritzer to add glitter, embossing powder, etc.
Example
Kristina, this card is super cute! How did you do the glitter stripes though? Did you use sticky strip or something? It looks like they're two different widths??
Great video too....I love that music!
Yes, you can use the versamarker. Shelly demoed this at the Stampin' Up! convention. She used a combination of gold embossing powder and irridescent ice embossing powder on a home decor item. It was really pretty!
Yep, you can use the versamark, it's a neat effect. You can also use the zig painty pen that we sell. Beautiful card Kristina.
Love love love this card! So beautiful!
Love the videos! Keep them coming!
I wonder if the sprtizer tool will dry out your markers faster than just using them?
Have you had to re-ink your markers?
I was going to say you could use the versamarker...but it's been covered. Also, I didn't know you could use reinker on your markers....Great idea!! Glad I commented today.
Thanks for the tutorial! LOVE the card you made!
Kristina - THANK YOU so much for this. I don't know if anyone else asked, but I was thrilled to see that you answered my question about how to use this. I'll definitely get my spritzer tool back out TODAY!!
From your #1 fan~
You are the GREATEST.....love what you have done with this set...I really like my spritzer too!!!
Thank you for the reminder to use this tool! I have it in my mess of a craft room - somewhere. I just need to dig it out because I really enjoy using it!
You ROCK! I love the card, I love the masking, and I LOVE the fast forward music! Thanks for making these videos. Now, I have to make some cards!
Wow! LOVE that card and I really have never considered buying the color spritzer. I'll have to now! Thanks for all the great ideas and the time you take to produce those awesome videos!
Very pretty card....as always!
Well, of course I just decided *not* to put the block party set on my last order, and you had to go ahead and make this awesome card with it! lol. Love it!

Thanks for the great video. I just got my color spritzer yesterday so your timing was perfect. lol
Curious about re-inking the markers too.
Awesome work and videos. Keep them coming.

Very cool! SU sells VersaMark Pad Refills 1/2 oz.
You can dab some on a toothbrush and sprinkle it too. Yes...it is a little messier than the Spritzer tool.
