A Thankful Bloom with Precision Placement

 ✂️🌸 When a single flower says it all, the right tools make the details shine!

Hello friends! Today I’m sharing a CAS card featuring two of my favorite crafty companions: the MISTI and the Precision Glue Press from My Sweet Petunia.

I’ve always admired the look of colorful strip borders, but honestly? Adhering those tiny pieces used to be a gluey, crooked mess. Enter the Precision Glue Press—game changer! Even with the narrowest strips, it places glue exactly where I need it, no smudges, no stress. I recently made a card with strips half the size of these, and the Glue Press handled it beautifully.

And here’s something that really amazed me: during a hectic stretch this past year, I misplaced the glue cap. Several weeks went by where I didn’t use the Glue Press, but because the bottle sat snugly in its stand, the glue still flowed when I came back! At most, I had to clear the nozzle with a quick pin, and it was good as new. Dependability like that is essential in our craft rooms!  

For this card, I stamped a tall flower using my MISTI (with the sticky mat inside), which made it easy to adjust the bloom until the script “thankful” stem lined up just right. From there, I cut strips of cardstock in maroon, pink, yellow, dark teal, and light blue, and thanks to the Precision Glue Press, it was effortless to adhere them perfectly side by side. No juggling caps, no sticky fingers—just clean placement every time.

To finish, I sprinkled a few yellow and black gems around the flower for a touch of sparkle.

I’m so grateful for tools that make the creative process smoother—and more fun. Thanks for stopping by, and happy stamping (and gluing)! 💛

Umbrella Snowman

 

Hello everyone! Anna here, with greetings from a beautiful fall embraced pacific northwest! 

Do you love snowmen as much as I do!? The cards I’m sharing today were made using the recently released snowman of the month photopolymer stamp set from SweetMissDaisy Designs, Umbrella Snowman. A delicately watercolored image paired with the soft texture of watercolor paper and designer Holiday Mini Gingham patterned paper also from SweetMissDaisy Designs. Faux stitching, cotton lace and a fun twine or twill bow makes for a really cute card, perfect for sending love to someone near or far. Swoon!

I used the Mini Misti to stamp the snowman image several times to ensure a great impression on textured watercolor paper.

I love how the Mini Misti allows me to stamp perfectly, every time! On card panels or on smaller sentiment banners, I can stamp with precision, giving me the perfect placement and impression for every project.  Sentiments are stamped perfectly placed, and stamped images on watercolor paper (or other textured papers) are a breeze to create! 

Thanks for joining me on the blog today! Stay healthy and well!

MISTI Magic for Halloween

 Hello friends!

I have a fun Halloween project to share with you today featuring the Open if You Dare set by SweetMissDaisy Designs. I created two cards and a coordinating bookmark—and I have to admit, the bookmark is staying with me!

To start, I die-cut three coffin-shaped tags. I placed them all on a sticky mat inside my Original Teal MISTI and positioned a different image on each one. With just one round of inking, I stamped all three tags at once—a huge time saver!

Next, it was time for sentiments. I reached for my trusty Mini MISTI, tucked a banner die cut inside, and aligned the sentiment perfectly to fit. In no time, I had two crisp, sentiment banners ready to go.

Card One – Cute Dracula

For my first card, I featured the cutest little Dracula. I had so much fun coloring him, right down to matching the tag reinforcement ring with his outfit. I even added a fluffy chenille ribbon to the tag for a fun texture.

For the background, I trimmed a 4x4 piece of patterned paper from the SweetMissDaisy Ghostly Paper Pack, then cut it diagonally to create two triangles. I adhered them at the top and bottom of my card base for a bold frame.

Using my Cut-Align Ruler, I centered the coffin tag with the help of the “0 center” feature—perfect alignment every time! To finish, I popped up the sentiment banner for a touch of dimension.  I used an alignment grid over the sentiment strip to verify its exact alignment.

Card Two—Spooked Ghost

My next card stars the sweetest little ghost, colored in soft shades of purple. I took the coffin tag with the stamped ghost back to the Mini MISTI and added a spider at the top—I just couldn’t resist! Now, it looks like the spider startled her, and I love that playful touch.

I used the same layout as my first card, with patterned paper from the Ghostly Pack, but this time I added a solid piece of purple cardstock in the center to tie in with the coloring. The tag and reinforcement were inked using Seedless Preserves Distress Ink, and a purple chenille ribbon finishes the look. Just like before, I popped up the sentiment banner to complete the card.

Bookmark – Halloween Kitty

My final project is a coffin-shaped tag bookmark—this one’s just for me! No surprise to my regular readers, I chose the kitty image. To give it a sturdier finish, I layered a black coffin tag behind the stamped one. I colored the tag reinforcement to match the kitty and added a black-and-white chenille ribbon to complete it!

I hope these projects inspire you to create your own Halloween treats. The MISTI makes multiple-item projects a breeze, and I love how quick and fun these came together. Thanks so much for stopping by! 

Stop by the My Sweet Petunia Store for the tools I listed above, plus many more of my favorites!  

Stamps and Papers are available at SweetMissDaisy Designs.

 

Open If You Dare

 Hello everyone! Anna here, with greetings from the pacific northwest! The tags I’m sharing today were made using the recently released Open If You Dare clear stamp set from SweetMissDaisy Designs. A delightful set with a vintage flair, perfect for cards, tags, journals, and more! I stamped the images and sentiments on watercolor paper, and painted the images with watercolor paints. I think they just might be the cutest Halloween tags around!

I used the Mini Misti to stamp the images and sentiment several times to ensure a great impression on textured watercolor paper to create each tag. I used the Received Ledger background stamp from SweetMissDaisy Designs to stamp interest on the base of the tag.

Some fun fibers and cute silver pumpkin charms added the finishing details. 

I love how the Mini Misti allows me to stamp perfectly, every time! I can stamp with precision every time, giving me the perfect placement and impression for every project.  Sentiments are stamped perfectly placed, and stamped images on watercolor paper (or other textured papers) are a breeze to create!

The Little Things

The MISTI is, hands down, my most important tool in the stamp room! Today’s vintage-inspired butterfly card is a perfect example of why. The patterned paper I chose has a soft sheen, which can make direct stamping a little tricky. Thankfully, the MISTI kept everything perfectly aligned—even with a large background stamp like the "Received Ledger" by SweetMissDaisy Dsigns. Since that stamp required multiple inkings, I couldn’t have done it without the MISTI holding everything steady.

After finishing the background, I stamped and fussy-cut the delicate butterflies from the "She Began to Fly" set by SweetMissDaisy Designs. I adore the sweet little details on each one—they bring a charming touch to a design like this. For the sentiment, I reached for my Mini MISTI. Its smaller footprint makes it ideal for lining up the “little things,” such as greetings.

And what a perfect message it is: In the Little Things is the Greatest Joy.

A Garden Girl for Country/Prim Fans

 Hello everyone! Anna here, with greetings from a cheerful, sunny day in the pacific northwest!

The card and tag I’m sharing today were made using the recently released Garden Girl clear stamp set from SweetMissDaisy Designs. A delightful set with an adorable garden girl in a cute country/prim style, wreath, flower swag, and fun garden friendship sentiments. I stamped the image and sentiment on watercolor paper, and painted her with watercolor paints. I think she is just the cutest garden girl around!

I used the Mini Misti to stamp the image and sentiment several times to ensure a great impression on textured watercolor paper to create this tag. 

I love how the Mini Misti allows me to stamp perfectly, every time! On card panels or on smaller sentiment banners, I can stamp with precision every time, giving me the perfect placement and impression for every project.  Sentiments are stamped perfectly placed, and stamped images on watercolor paper (or other textured papers) are a breeze to create!
