Hi,
Susan on the blog today! The reason I chose these three cards for my Team Tuesday post today is that all three cards have stamped images with either very solid areas on them or thick black lines. A MISTI is essential when using stamps like these.
For the first card, I used an image from Trick or Treaters - all of the images in this set have large solid areas. I placed the stamp in my MISTI and used Memento Tuxedo Black ink as this is safe with Copics. To get the best impression, I carefully placed the image on the door of the Misti making sure that the solid areas were adhered to the door without any bubbles between the stamp and the door. I stamped the image 3 times using my regular sized Misti onto Neenah Solar White 80 pound card stock. I colored the image in with Copic Markers. I die cut Thankfully from black card stock and I cut the shadow from vellum. I stamped the sentiment from Girl Boss onto Neenah Solar White using Hero Arts Pumpkin ink. I did use my Misti and stamped this three times to get a crisp image.
For this card the solid areas areas are smaller but nonetheless they are a very important part of the image. I carefully adhered this to my Misti door and stamped it 3 times with Memento Tuxedo black ink. I used Copic Sketch markers G000, G00 and G02 to color in the dress. I added some colored pencil to the "nooks and crannies". Her hair is E31, E33, E35 and E37 with some colored pencil details. For the background I used Layers of Clouds stencil and my Life Changing Blender Brushes with Distress Oxides Picked Rasperry, Worn Lipstick and Spun Sugar. I die cut the trees from Woodsy Forest twice from Neenah Solar White card stock. I adhered this together with some Gina K Designs Connect Glue and then added them to the panel. Then sentiment is from If You Have It Haunt It and I used Memento Tuxedo Black and my Misti.
With illustrative heavy line designs such as this witch from If You Have It Haunt It, I found my Misti to be an integral component for precision stamping. I stamped the witch 4 times in Memento Tuxedo Black ink. The background was made using the Funky Rainbow Stencil with my Life Changing Blender Brushes. I used Distress Oxide ink in Abandoned Coral, Carved Pumpkin and Persimmon. I colored in the pumpkin with Copic YR18. I knew I wanted to leave this image as black and white so this is why using my MISTI is so important. The sentiment is from Hey Girl.
