Team Tuesday with Ceal

Hello everyone!

It's Ceal here and I have a card to share today using the gorgeous Be Kind set by Simon Says Stamps from their Hey Bestie collection. 

A couple weekends ago I attended a retreat in Kansas and I also participated in a shoebox swap so my card had to be quick to make. I came up with this design for a quick and easy card.

 I started with a white card base and some watercolor paper.  I cut out several of the foliage using the coordinating dies from the Be Kind Bundle without stamping them first because it was quicker.  After cutting it out I placed the negative piece in the MISTI and then placed the positive piece inside the negative one and laid the stamp on top, I picked up the stamp with the door of the Misti and inked it u with Fadeout ink by Ink on 3. By using this technique I was able to stamp all the die cut pieces in the exact place that they needed to be stamped. 

I used Tombow markers to watercolor the foliage and for the background I used a Grid stencil by Simon Says Stamp and some Sandy Beach ink blended with the Life Changing Blender Brushes by Picket Fence Studios. 

This card would not have been easy or quick without the MISTI, I don't know how I ever stamped without it!
