CAC + Sticky Mats = Alignment Happiness

**Affiliate links used when possible at no cost to you** 

Hello, Angie here today!  I love Cover- A-Card stamps (6 x 6 stamps).  However, CACs can be difficult to align and stamp with just one inking.  MISTI Sticky Mats to the rescue!  I place the Sticky Mat in the MISTI then I place the cardstock on the mat just one grid line away from the edge.  I place the stamp at the edges of the MISTI and then close the lid to pick up the stamp.  The image can be stamped as many times as needed to get full coverage.  The paper doesn't move even when restamping multiple times!  Once the stamping is finished, simply push the mat away from the paper, and the paper will peel away.  (See the how-to photo below the project)  

I like to leave the main image stamp in the New Original MISTI and use a Mini MISTI for the sentiment.  It is a time saver to have everything already set up on the MISTIs if something goes wrong before the card is completely finished!


Pardon the mechanic hands the photographer needed an assistant.  :)  The thumb on the left is pressing the sticky mat away from the paper.  

Thanks so much for stopping by!
