My Sweet Petunia (MISTI) and Visible Image

One of the stamp companies I fell in love with at Creativation was Visible Image, so I am beyond thrilled that the My Sweet Petunia (MISTI) Team is hopping with them today. 

These were some of the stamps on display.

 

I knew these beautiful grungy images would be perfect to try with some of my Gel Press Prints (a post featuring that Monoprinting process is here).

With Versafine Clair Ink, multiple stampings using my MISTI, and clear embossing, I was able to get solid contrast stamping on the acrylic paint backgrounds.

Stamps are from Visible Image Rock Out.

The stamps from Visible Image Visometry reminded me of my favorite childhood toy ... my Spirograph.

 

Again, I paired Versafine Clair with a Gel Press printed background and my MISTI.  I was able to stamp all three sizes at once using my MISTI to speed up the process.

Love the fun way to create an easy background.

The sentiment is from a wonderful set of stamps called Just Be Happy.

My formidable music years involved a collection of Cassette Tapes.  I was so thrilled when I got my first car that my dad was able to install a Cassette Tape player under the dash.  I commuted to college classes several nights a week and that Cassette player and perfect Mix Tapes timed for my drive kept me sane.

So of course, I had to create a card using Just Hit Play.  I used my MISTI to stamp the unwound tape stamp multiple times to create my card background.

 

Oh the memories of trying to create the perfect Mix Tape.

There will be two prizes for this hop ... we will choose two lucky commenters from the hop to win one of two prizes: a $50 shopping spree at www.mysweetpetunia.com and a $50 shopping spree at visibleimage.co.uk.  You must leave your comments no later than Monday, April 30th, at 11:59 PM CST and winners will be announced on Tuesday May 1st, on the Visible Image and My Sweet Petunia blogs.
