Joy Clair and MISTI Collaboration Hop

Greetings friends and fellow crafters. LeeAnn here today doing a collaboration with Joy Clair and My Sweet Petunia's Stamping Tool the MISTI (Most Incredible Stamping Tool Invented). The MISTI has been a game changer for many stampers since its introduction to the market in 2015. Today I am going to be using the Mini MISTI for my project.

 The MISTI came nicely packaged in a cardboard shipping box with packing paper to protect it.

 After taking the MISTI out of its packing box and then brand box, it was yet again wrapped in cardboard and then plastic. You can see the two rare-earth magnets that were on the bottom.

 The mini MISTI outside dimensions are 6 x 7 while the inside workspace dimensions are 4.75 x 5, I primarly make A2 size cards so this size works for me in most cases. There are 2 others sizes that are larger, the Original (8 x 10 work area 6.5 x 8.5) and the Memory ( 13.75 x 14 with 12.25 x 12.25 workspace). Each MISTI comes with 2 magnets, Foam Pad to use when using Clear Stamps (not needed with thicker cling stamps) and a sample of grid paper (about 10 sheets).

 Each MISTI has the grid under neath the bottom of the tool, which can not be seen through the foam. Also on that bottom layer is a Bible Verse (As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another as good stewards of God's varied grace. 1 Peter 4:10)
 So, on with my project. used the Joy Clair SVG file to cut out the pieces for the stamp set I chose to use. I then cut the negative to the size to fit in the MISTI.

I then placed each stamp within the space that it belongs. 

 I opened the MISTI and inked up the images. I had also used this time to put the die cuts in their proper spaces.

 I then closed it down and applied slight pressure to transfer the ink to the cut. I then opened the lid, inspected my cuts, re-inked and because my pages did not move, I was able to re-stamp in the same place again.

 After inking all the pieces I wanted to use for this project, I used my Spectrum Noir Markers and colored it up. My project was then put together using red power-tape and my project was complete.
