Square Prints Finally Stamped Straight



I was admiring Geri's stunning card that was a winner at CAS(E) this Sketch last week, and it dawned on me that I could try to make something similar with my Misti.  I have long been frustrated by PTI Square Prints because I find it impossible to line up or stamp straight.

Well, I still need some practice, but here is what I was able to do right off the bat.  I would love to hear your best tips on using the Misti or links to your favorite videos.


I used colors from this week's ColourMe #85.


Thanks for Visiting

    I love these graphic square prints and you've stamped them beautifully, Joyce! There are lots of videos on You Tube for the Misti...here are a few:
    Maureen Wong has several videos on her channel:

    You've inspired me, Joyce. I have this set and I'm not sure I've ever used it. I'm pulling it out now to see what I can come up with. Using the Misti will definitely help line things up I think. I have been using your helpful tips on stamping die cuts and it's working beautifully.

    Your images look perfectly aligned to me and oh-so-pretty in the colours you've chosen! The embossing and die cut sentiment are lovely special touches! I don't think you need a video at all (I, however, need a Misti *grin*)
    Hugs~c
