Sticky Mat Stamping Tricks

 

Hey card making friends, thanks for stopping in.  It's Sandi MacIver here and in today's new card making video I share some card making tricks I use almost daily using my MISTI STICKY MATS

Like many of you I use my Misti daily and I have come to love and depend on my Sticky Mats for many different uses in my stamping studio.  While making today's card, I share 3 - 4 different ways I use the STICKY MATS to help make my card making experience easier.

Today's card project is created with the November Card Kit from Simon Says Stamp.  There are some great products in this kit again this month and while I only used a few of them to create this pretty card, I'm hoping to circle back at a later date and play with more.    

Creating the November 22 Full of Thanks Card Kit Card:

Firstly, I'll keep the instructions short as I share a video and PDF download covering all the details.

Start by using the Full of Thanks Stamp Set and coordinating stencil to create the art piece.  

Next, fussy cut it out with the NEW Simon Says Stamp FINE DETAIL SCISSORS.  

Finally, created a card base using the Floral Festoon Embossing Folder.

 

Watch the Video:

In today's video, I share how I use the stencil and detailed blending brushes to add color, shadow and depth to the simple stamped image. You can use these same steps for all three of the main images in the stamp set, as the coordinating stencil set has 3 stencil sets, one for each image. 

I also share 4 different tips on how to use the Misti Sticky Mats in your daily stamping
