MISTI and Concord & 9th!

Posted on April 19, 2016 | 116 comments

Please join the MISTI team for a hop with Concord & 9th!

One lucky person who comments on the hop will win a Mini MISTI!

The prize will be randomly chosen from everyone who leaves a comment on every post. The winner will be announced on the My Sweet Petunia Facebook Page on Friday.

I used the Flourishes Stamp Set. What a fun set! Lots of flowers (and flower parts) to mix and match. So much fun. The Concord & 9th April release can be found here. They are also doing a special where if you spend $60 you get a super cute stamp set! Check it out!

First I used my Mini MISTI to stamps the leaves.

Then I added some blue flowers (Soft Sky & Bermuda Bay). It’s pretty just like this…but I wasn’t finished playing just yet.

I went to town with the wee little dot stamps (they work great as a little accent for the flowers or a flower center). Then I wet all the little flowers and let the ink (Rich Razzleberry) bleed a bit. Then I did a wash background using the same ink as the lighter part of the flower (Soft Sky). After everything was dry I painted some circles onto the background with white acrylic ink. I also edged the flowers with a marker to define them a bit.

I stamped the sentiments on a strip of white cardstock and then cut to size.

I added some pearls and doodled my card edge with a fine black pen. I added a few accents with a white gel pen.

Our hop list!
