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!!

  18. That card technique is seriously the bomb. I love what you did and never, ever would have thought you started with a white card! With or without the Misti, I must go try this!

  32. This card is stunning. I've seen quite a few "space" background cards but this one is very striking and different. Thanks for offering the chance for a Misti. Glad I found your blog.

  36. What a great card and such a wonderful idea to stamp it all at once with multiple stamps. The Misti surely makes life easier to be able to make multiples and restamp if the image doesn't come out clearly the first time. I can't wait to get one to use with my large stamps that never seem to get all of the image printed.
