<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I used Enchanted Evening ink at full strength and stamped off for this one. Don't you love the stitched speech bubble dies from MFT?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I also used this set for my Mother's Day card. Pinks and yellow created a very bright, happy card. I hope my Mom loves it.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Erin Lincoln also answered my SOS on the forum for adhering the paper wrap to the pint container. It works so WELL!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">She said, </span>"I have a nifty way to do that! I put double sided tape along the
two side edges. Nothing on the top/bottom edges at all. And I leave a
bit of an overhang of adhesive off the bottom of the die cut. Without
removing the tape backing, I put the die cut in place against the
container. Because no adhesive is exposed, you can move it around a bit
to get perfect placement. When you have it where you want it and holding
your die cut against the container to keep it in place, you peel the
backing paper off your double sided tape at the overhang and pull it
down and off. (Reminds me a bit of when magicians pull a tablecloth out
from underneath dishes and the dishes stay on the table.) Do it to the
other side. And then trim the overhang." <br />

They feel like spring! I had not used Wishes Come True very much but was determined to figure it out. The candles make sense when they are grounded with the oval from Sweet Spring or a sentiment. The font selection in this set is really nice.</span><br />

I am loving the Retro Style sets.The new You're Been Framed: Oval has the perfect stamp for grounding the sign. Happy Happy!!! My sign legs are from No Strings Attached.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I used my MISTI to help speed up the stamping process. It did take some time to figure it out but now I have a template for anytime that I use this set. I just keep it in the back of my clear stamp pockets with the stamp set.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDo6frhpit-rYwq7uzEvjA1OV5gflHC5pFaMeuWDZQWV-K2NGL8r60zybeXDzQaGHcAtGubg3DCZepNQbV73UEIBtB_tv-xWJ-_wVHC9drq-XGYqfP7omwkjHl-7q8vmJj-NG8zbxGQnY/s1600/MistiTwo.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDo6frhpit-rYwq7uzEvjA1OV5gflHC5pFaMeuWDZQWV-K2NGL8r60zybeXDzQaGHcAtGubg3DCZepNQbV73UEIBtB_tv-xWJ-_wVHC9drq-XGYqfP7omwkjHl-7q8vmJj-NG8zbxGQnY/s1600/MistiTwo.jpg" height="640" width="426" /></a></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The trick is leaving room around the stamps so you can use different colors of ink easily. I will probably add the arrow dies to the template as well. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I stamped the wreath on the card front first so the berries were in place. I then starting stamping the die cut. I really like the blue card that has the berries in spring rain and the rest of the wreath in the neutrals.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">For the "blue" cards I stamped the wreath with Spring Rain first. I then did 2 different color schemes. Spring Rain, followed by Blueberry Sky and then Enchanted Evening randomly inked. The second one was Spring Rain first and then Fine Linen and Kraft. I had a blast using lots of ink colors.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The "green" cards were stamped with Spring Moss. I then followed that up with Ripe Avocado. I used the herringbone impression plate after I stamped the initial wreath on the white card stock. ~Rhonda</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Love the happy colors on this card. I also stepped out of my creative box by adding my own squiggles and such. I was inspired by Ashley Newell's card <a href="http://www.ashleynewell.com/blog/2015/02/07/introducing-enclosed/">here</a>. Her technique is the challenge for this week's <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2015/03/make-it-monday-203-doodling-with-stamps.html">MIM #204 Doodling with Stamps</a>. I totally get what Ashley said about it be scary cuz she might have to start over. This was one card that I didn't want to do again. It was tough lining up all these petals!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">It's already the end of February which means its time for <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2015/02/february-2015-blog-hop-challenge.html">PTI's blog hop</a>. The inspiration this month is a beauty. I loved the repetition of the pattern, bright colors, and white space. I also used a birthday sentiment so I can continue my Wednesday Wishes challenge for myself.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">My take is a clean and simple design made easier by using my MISTI tool. I love that I could create a clean grid and re-stamp as much as I needed to get the bright colors. A spritz of Mister Huey's Shine color mist was the finishing touch.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Playing along with this week's <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2015/02/make-it-monday-201-cover-plate-stencils-and-embossing-paste.html">PTI - Make it Monday #201</a>! Getting messy with embossing paste. I decided to add a couple of drops of Tropical Teal ink to my paste for a bright background. I like the imperfections in color. I even like the charm of the bleeds under the stencil at the bottom. (you gotta like it or start over!)I used several of the small stamps in the set to add pops of red and teal to the circles. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">What do you think about the cover plate stencil I made?? I found clear template plastic in the quilting section at Jo-Ann's that worked perfectly. I had to use the metal shim to get a good cut. I can know get it messy and it washes right off.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I hope you have something to SMILE about!! I am still playing with my MISTI. Using lots of sentiments on a card front is so much easier. I was able to stamp the sentiments in winter wisteria at the same time, then the 3 sentiments in limeade ice.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I then "thought" I was through so used the Herringbone Impression Plate. I decided I had too much white space so I added the sentiment in Royal Velvet. I had to stamp it a couple of times to get a full image. I would have messed it up for sure without the tool.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"> Have you fallen under the spell of the new MISTI tool? Mine arrived earlier in the week. There is definitely a learning curve but it is well worth it. I used it to create this week's card. I decided to try some layered flowers which I've not had too great of success with in the past.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I love that I can use re-ink stamps and use my light color inks so easily. I even "dressed up" an envelope using PTI's Framed stamp set. My rectangle stayed in shape without warp. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Do you know some friends that won't receive a Valentine this weekend? I think that this could be a hard holiday for some. I thought a goody bag and a card would be fun.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I had to do same masking to get my mugs layered. I haven't done that in a while so it was fun! This is a pretty easy set for that technique. Good practice for me. The steam is from Comfort Food.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I'm playing along with the first <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2015/01/january-2015-blog-hop-challenge.html">Papertrey Ink Blog Hop of 2015</a>. The theme is hearts. My card is very simple and I hope appropriate for college age boys/men. I will be including this in the care packages I am sending my sons for Valentine's Day. I figure a card and FOOD is always a home run.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I stacked 3 "hugs" die cuts together for the sentiment. The white panel was adhered with foam tape to add the dimension. I hope you have a happy Sunday. Happy Hopping!! ~Rhonda</span><br />
