Season's Greetings with MISTI
I received an order of some gorgeous linen textured card stock and new Papertrey Ink supplies and decided to make some cards.
I wanted the sentiment to be using an ombre technique so I got out my new toy, the MISTI, and set to work. This makes multiples of cards a snap and for an inking method like this where you want to stamp over multiple times, it's super easy! Here's a video showing it in action:
I used multiple colours on the sentiment (Fuschia and Merlot from Fresh ink) with the lighter colour at the top and then the darker shade below.
I added Tuscan Olive on the lower sentiment and that's it! The linen texture is great but hard to get a good shot of.
And here are a bunch of them all together on the MISTI:
Love this tool for its convenience ... and love my new stamps! :)

I LOVE my MISTI too! The ombre technique looks AMAZING! I need to try this out!
Love the Ombre, I'm not sure I needed to know about the MISTI... now that I know about it, I'm thinking I need it lol.
Ditto what Oooh Snap said!! All of it!
This is such a great tool! Thanks for sharing!
These are just stunning Cara! Your new toy looks really intriguing and I've seen lots of others rave about it too so maybe I should check it out! I meant to pop back here ages ago when you commented on my challenge having just missed the deadline - I would love to see the card! :)
I LOVE these and I just ordered a MISTI. Can't wait to get it. :)
got my MISTI today. Now to get other projects out of the way so I can play with it!
