Hi all! Today I have a card set made that I’ve wanted to do for a loooooooooong time! I got the Folk Art Medallion stamp set a while back, but was never able to get a really solid, perfect image from the big medallion stamp. Now with my MISTI, every one is perfect!
I stamped some of this on the MISTI, and some with blocks, and I filmed the process. There are also a couple tips on stamping with difficult images. Hope it helps!
Hi all! Today I have a card for the Uniko Studio challenge – Love and Friendship:
The sentiment is from Flower Power #3 and the heart dies are from Little B. I’ve made a quick video today showing a tip on stamping on odd-shaped die cuts with the MISTI:
This is also for Noor Design UK – With Love. I hope you like it and TFL!
I cut 2 pieces of cardstock and covered them with sheets from an old book. One was cut into a tag shape, and on the other I stamped the doll and wings. I colored them with Inktense pencils, added some Stickles to the wings, and fussy cut them out. I cut out the same tag shape from some cloud transparency I had in my stash and tied it to the book sheet tag with a twill bow and some baker’s twine.
For the sentiment, I printed it on plain paper with my laser printer and covered it with clear packing tape. Then I soaked it in water and rubbed the paper off the back of the tape. That leaves just the toner sentiment on the back of the tape and it stuck right to the transparency.
This is for SSS Monday Challenge – Up in the Clouds. I hope you like it and TFL!
Hi all! Today I have a card made using the MFT Sketch:
I used the PI Sending Big Hugs stamp set and the matching die. She was stamped with Memento ink, colored with Copics and her dress was paper pieced. The sentiment is also from the stamp set.
This is also for Crafty Creations – Something Old, Something New (the paper is really old from my stash and the stamp set and die are new to me). I hope you like it and TFL!
Hi all! Yesterday on her blog, Jennifer McGuire put up a post about repeated stamping of an image in a circle. I immediately thought that I could replicate that look by using the MISTI, and without having to measure. Here’s what I came up with:
I used the Lovestruck stamp set from Your Next Stamp and a rainbow of Memento Dew Drop inkpads. And here’s my video showing the technique:
Hi all! Today is Your Next Stamp’s Feature Day. We’re all featuring Love themed projects. I have a gift card pocket using the Small Tear Away Tab die:
I also used the Love & Smiles stamp set and the matching die set. Here’s what it looks like after the tab is pulled and the gift card is pulled out a little.
And I made a video of the process as well:

Hi all! Today’s card used the MISTI to help stamp it. Can you guess how?
The birthday sentiment is not a large circle stamp. It’s just the little word birthday that I stamped 8 times using the MISTI for perfect positioning and repetition. To get the perfect spacing, I used an octagon diecut behind the circle. Here’s a video explaining how I did it:
Hi all! I have a card for a couple challenges today:
I used the Everyday Classics set from Papertrey Ink and followed the Make It Monday instructions for pieces behind the heart. I cut out a 3x4 journaling card and cut out a Spellbinders heart from it. I stamped a sentiment near the bottom, then adhered the pie chart piece to the back of the card and cut the excess off. I embossed a blue cardstock piece with a Stampin’ Up! dot folder and put the whole card together.
I just got my MISTI Stamping Tool and I have to say that it really is the Most Incredible Stamping Tool Invented! I used it on this card to stamp the sentiment exactly where I wanted it on the card base and on the watercolored panel. Then I mounted the watercolor panel on the card base with foam tape, and the sentiment lined up perfectly!
I used the Lovely Thoughts stamp set and the Roses dies from Paper Smooches. And I filmed a video of the making of it:
I used the Sunflower Sweetheart stamp set and matching dies from MFT as well as a banner die cut using a Blueprints die. The background is an old Cornish Heritage Farms cling stamp.
She was stamped with Memento ink and colored with Copics. I popped her and the sentiment up on foam tape.
This is also for MarkerPOP – Anything Goes (and colored with markers) and Fab 'n' Funky – Something New (I just got this stamp and die set). I hope you like it and TFL!
Oooops! I forgot to post my DT Dare card yesterday, so here it is:
This month, our Dare was to make a Clean & Simple card using the colors white and red. First I stamped the Heart Ink Splatter in red on a white card base. Next, I cut the Fancy Thanks Die 3 times from white cardstock scraps. I glued them together and adhered to the card, slightly over the splatter.
Hi all! Today we have new Color and Sketch challenges over at the YNS Challenge Blog. Here’s the Color Challenge:
And here’s the Sketch:
This time I went with the sketch and came up with this:
I used the Perfect Chemistry stamp set and the matching die set. I stamped the test tube guy with Memento ink and colored with Copics. Then I die cut him out and popped him up on the panel with foam dots. The sentiment was stamped with Versamark and embossed with Hero Arts white EP.

Hi all! It’s almost that time again – time for a new release from Your Next Stamp! Yay! Today the DT has peeks of the new products for you and here’s mine:
I used the Spring/Summer Scene Dies (which I designed!!) to make the background for the little bee from Sweet and Cool. I added a face to him from Fun Faces, colored him with Copics, and cut him out with the matching die. He was then popped up on an acetate Z-spring. You can see the dimension a little better in this shot:
The fun thing is when you flick him a little, he moves! Fun!
This is also for the SSS Monday Challenge – Old and New (I used new stamps and dies with some very OLD patterned papers).
Now it’s time for you to head over to the YNS Blog to see all the DT members that have a sneak peek for you today. I hope to see you back here tomorrow for the New Release Hop! TFL!
I used it on this card to stamp the sentiment exactly where I wanted it on the card base and on the watercolored panel. Then I mounted the watercolor panel on the card base with foam tape, and the sentiment lined up perfectly!
