The My Sweet Petunia team is hopping with Power Poppy today!
Leave a comment on each stop on the blog hop for a chance to win a MISTI (winner’s choice of an Original or a Mini) from My Sweet Petunia or the Power Poppy Giveaway – TWO $25 Gift Certificates!
The MISTI winner will be announced on the My Sweet Petunia Blog on April 14th. The Power Poppy winner will be announced at the Power Poppy Blog.
My project uses the Short Stack set from Power Poppy and my Mini MISTI and Creative Corners.
I stamped the sweet image in with black ink with my Mini MISTI. Make sure and leave your stamp in your MISTI….
I watercolored my image (yep… in the MISTI. Great for in your lap while on the sofa) and then restamped after my paper was dry for a nice crisp outline. 
I created my border by masking the center and sponging on inks and then splattering with water. 
Hop List:
I never tried leaving my paper in the misti while coloring, but the corners allow for centering which will make it much easier. Thanks for the tip
YEAH! I’ve been trying to get here for about thirty minutes—links weren’t working! But it was worth the wait! I adore this creation-plan to “case” this one!
What a darling card! Love how you colored the sweet image and I am really loving your border! 🙂
Beautiful! Love how you created the border and the choice of colors.
Cute card, Jeanne! Love how you created the border around your stamped image….Will have to try that! Also good tip on leaving image in the MISTI to color….making it a “lap-board.” 😉 Thanks for sharing your work.

Such a beautiful card. The border was an especially nice touch.

Love how you did the borders!
Such a sweet card! I thought the border was made from patterned paper – it’s lovely!
Love the blue framing you’ve created!
I would never have thought to colour the image while it was still in the MISTI!!! OMG >>>Mind Blown<<< Not to mention the masking to create the border – such a fantastic idea and it looks amazing!
This is amazing Jeanne, the cups are beautifully coloured. A great card!
I love how you made this one-layer card!

One of my very favorite stamps. I had a very sweet parakeet that color for 12 years. Beautiful colors.

Oh Happy Day! I would love to win a Misti! 🙂
Beautiful card!
What a lovely card! And such a clever idea with that border xx
Beautiful card. Loved the border tip.
I can see this stamp coming to me soon. I grew up with a parakeet named Joey, who was this color. he loved to play in the kitchen with his toys, yes he did have toys, he would pick them up and drop them off the side of the table and turn his head until he heard them hit the floor, then he would go back for another and do it again and again
WOW, never thought about re-stamping the image AFTER I was done coloring and love how you masked off for your awesome border..
truly love this..
hugs
Cool techniques. I love how the blue border. I t makes the image stand out even more.
What a cute card and clever techniques. I’ll have to try coloring and masking while still in the MISTI.
Super cute card!
Love cups stamp! And the way you made this gorgeous card!
What a cute card! Love the stamp!
Loving all the wonderful ideas on stamping and coloring. Love your card and how you did the background
Wow, your card is just so cute! I love your tip about leaving your piece in the MISTI and coloring it and then re-stamp it, how smart is that?
Great card! What a neat frame you made!
This is such a lovely image and coloured beautifully. The restamping tip is great I wonder if it works when colouring with pencil…might have to give it a go. Gorgeous card.
So lovely looking
and great stamping.

Gorgeous image and I love your border.
Jeanne, TFS! Love the little budgie too. “I watercolored my image (yep… in the MISTI. Great for in your lap while on the sofa) and then restamped after my paper was dry for a nice crisp outline. ” Another new tip for me to glean! I don’t have a MISTI but still good info to use soon I hope 😉
Love the tea cups, such a sweet stamp.

I love that image and you colored it so beautifully.
Thank you for sharing your lovely card!
I love that stamp set, and I love how you colored it. Great idea to use the MISTI for in your lap watercoloring, or any other coloring, then be able to
restamp for the crisp lines. Perfect.
Such a cute card, thanks for sharing
great tip! and luv his card!
*this
I have that stamp but it has never looked as pretty as yours!
Love the border, Jeanne!
Will be trying it!
Beautiful details.
This is such an adorable card and image.
I soo love it.
Beautiful and I love your tip about restamping after you watercolored.
So cute. I like your watercoloring and the background.
I have this stamp and I am gonna try this. Thanks for sharing!
Very sweet card. TFS
every detail of this card is so beautiful!
Such a spectacular card. Everything is just happy and vibrant! Thanks for sharing with us.
Love the coloring and like the outline stamping once it is colored!
Love this teacup set, and your card is gorgeous!
Excellent watercoloring, and I appreciate seeing the overstamping technique to sharpen the outlines!
Lynn Mathers
LOVE this! It will be my next stamp set for Coffee Loving Cardmakers hop! Thanks for the inspiration!
Another beautiful card and a simple technique. Thank you for sharing!
What a pretty card, great idea about painting the border yourself!
Fabulous card. What a good idea to keep the card in the misti for colouring and then sharpen up the stamping. Thanks for the great tips
I love the way you did the border on the card. I would never have thought to do that. Another wonderful idea for my card making arsenal. Thank you!
This stamp is adorable and you did a great job with coloring it!!!
I love this one! The coloring and the background are just perfect. I really like the idea of stamping once and being able to color and then stamping over again. Hmmm, I think I need a MISTI. LOL
Thanks for being part of the blog hop. Your card is adorable. I must confess I would have never thought to restamp the image after I was done coloring it. But, it’s a fabulous idea to use with the stamp tool .
Love these sweet birds & your awesome coloring!!
These power poppy designs are so detailed and just wonderful!
I adore this image and restamping ove it after watercolouring would be fabulous! I sometimes risk the end of a marker to rehighlight edges lost by watercolouring over them, but a Misti would solve this!
Cute card! Love the colors!
Love your card (and that stamp). Thanks for sharing.
Your card is lovely! Love the bird and teacups. <3
Nice job! Thanks, Denise
what a great tip to leave your card in the MISTI to watercolor! Will be using that this summer when sitting in the back yard, enjoying the sun 🙂

Such a beautiful card!! I love your coloring. The border is so pretty.
Really love both the Misti and Power Poppy. Your card is really cute.
Oh, Jeanne, what a darling card, and I love that you watercolored right in your MISTI! Wow! I love the new Creative Corners and use them a lot (they are more well behaved than those smaller magnets…hehe!). Your watercoloring of this darling image is beautiful, and I love the nice, crisp re-stamp after your coloring. What a fabulous “frame” with the sponging and the doodling! Hugs!
Sweet as can be and I love how you did the border!
Beautiful card! I’m totally new to stamping, so the misti would really come in handy.
Great idea to watercolor then re-stamp the outline of the image again. Wonderful card.

I have been reviewin online more than four hours today for painter
jobs in calgary & Power Poppy & My Sweet Petunia Blog Hop and GIVEAWAY!
, yet I never found any interesting article like yours.
It’s pretty worth enough for me. In my view, if all web
owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the internet will be much more useful than ever before.
