MISTI May-nia – Win a Mini MISTI!!

By Taheerah | 22nd May 2016 | 684 Comments

Hey everyone! Happy Sunday – and welcome to MISTI May-nia!!

I’m so thrilled and delighted to be a special guest for the MISTI May-nia event!! In case you haven’t heard, My Sweet Petunia are giving away a free Mini MISTI every day this month – sometimes with more than one chance to win too! Make sure you check out this amazing event over on the My Sweet Petunia blog for more details!

I absolutely love my MISTIs! That’s right – I’m blessed enough to have several! They come in so handy for mass production, but where I find them most useful for me is in techniques and especially in overstamping. And ever since the Mini MISTI has been released I’ve found it hard not to use it for every single card I make! Seriously worth every penny!!

So for my card I used my MISTI to work out perfect stamp placement of several stamps and then stamp them all at once. Here’s what I came up with:

Awesome, right?! I could not be more thrilled with how it turned out!!

I stated with a panel of white cardstock and lined up my moon die on the panel. I used a Picket Fence Distress Crayon to draw/trace the moon in, then removed the die and inked the panel completely with Faded Jeans Distress Ink, then overinked that with Black Soot Distress ink. Thanks to the crayon resisting the inks I was able to keep my moon having that ghostly look!

I splattered on some water droplets and mists for that starry night look.

I lined up all my stamps on my panel, then used the MISTI lid to pick them up in one go for stamping. So easy! I heat embossed the centre sentiments with white embossing powder, and enjoyed adding the beginning of the sentiment with black ink for some contrast. So thrilled with how this turned out!!

***Giveaway!!***

  3. Before I came here to comment, I had to make a quick stop to get this card on my Designs board on Pinterest! This looks like so much fun to make – I'm thinking it will get me to finally open up those Distress Crayons instead of just looking at them on my desk. I'm a big fan of many things mini. My desk is big, but the available space on it is mini. So a mini MISTI would work very well in that mini space. The thanks are the opposite of mini – maxi thanks for the opportunity to win something so lovely!

  8. This is a phrase I share with my oldest granddaughter and then we add our own individual funny thought "I love you almost as much as cheese loves to be on pizza " says Violet. " I love you almost as much as teachers love the last day of school" answers me, Nana. ( I taught 4th grade for 32 years.) Violet would love this card. Thanks for the CASE
