Welcome to the My Favorite Things and Misti Blog Hop! We have a great line up today of projects showcasing MFT and the mazing Misti Stamping Tool. Check out the MFT Blog for a full line up of stops to make.
One of my most favorite uses for the Misti is double stamping. With the Misti, double stamping a perfect image is completely possible. This gives you a solid image and even brighter color when you can add layers of ink. In today's card, I used double stamping with Versamark to create a solid heat embossed image.
I lined up a piece of Vellum inside the Misti. The benefit of using this great tool is having those graph lines. You are able to line up your stamps perfectly within your cardstock.
I used the fabulous bar magnets to hold down the Vellum and then stamped the image 3 times to ensure a perfectly coated, Versamark image. This allowed to get great embossing powder coverage.
I love that embossed look! I layered the vellum on a piece of white cardstock that I added the Lots of Heart Stencil to with some Candied Apple Oxide Ink. I decided to go in a little on the edges with some Worn Lipstick Oxide ink just to add a little pink details.
I added a small strip of Silver Glitter Washi to the top of the card and then attached the 2 pieces together with a staple. I know staples are a different way to adhere paper together on a card but I do love the detail of the silver staple.
I attached the stenciled and vellum card front to a white card base using foam tape. Last, I fussy cut one of the hearts from the stencil and added it to the vellum front. I added a layer of Glossy Accents to the heart for a little shine.
I hope you have enjoyed my card today. Please stop over to the MFT Blog for more details. There are lots of prizes to be given away and you will be able to find all those details over there.
Thanks so much for stopping by today! Have a great weekend!
