Happy Birthday

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:

I hope you like it and TFL!
