MISTI Monday June 2020 Challenge

[MISTI Monday]

Challenge Title: MISTI Pink!
Hostess: MISTI Monday
Keyword: MSP34
Date: June 1, 2020

Hello everyone! Here we are, at the halfway mark of 2020. This year is indescribable. I'm just going to say that I'm glad I have my card making as an outlet. I can come into my craft room and just get away from everything. I hope you are all coping with everything going on in the world and in the USA.

During these times of strife, one of the big things I feel blessed by is my friendship with Iliana and how the MISTI has brought me so much enjoyment for the last 6 years. (I even picked up a black MISTI from Hero Arts to add to my MISTI family). In my personal life, I have become enamored with pink, just because of my love of My Sweet Petunia.

So, this month, I'd like you to make a card using PINK in any way! Any kind of card, any occasion. Just make a card that brings you joy.

My card is a thank you card that I'll be sending to Iliana to brighten her day. I try to thank her all the time, and that probably makes me a quasi stalker. LOL.

I used a stamp set from The Ton, one of her large floral peony sets, a coverplate die from Reverse Confetti, a Thanks die from Honey Bee stamps and for the ink I used Altenew.

I of course used my MISTI to layer the stamps, creating a beautiful floral focal piece. I added gold sequins to match the gold thanks.

I made 20 peonies in all. Some purple, some yellow, some orange and the pink. Once you get your layering down, it's so easy to mass produce beautiful cards. I hope she enjoys it!




I hope you all enjoy playing with PINK in June! I cannot wait to see what you create!

I hope you are all safe and healthy!

Here is an entry for the Pink Challenge this month:

Pink Petals

The cardstock and brads are from the pink family. I used my Mini MISTI to align my sentiment on the pink strip. Thanks for Looking!

Here is another card with some Pink Petal Flower Embellishments:

I used my Mini MISTI to align my sentiment. Thanks for Looking!

Are we supposed to add our card/links here in this group? I thought we were just to use the keyword so I didn't share it here.

Jeanette, I don't think it's required to link the cards here, but most do it, to share with the rest of the players.

Here is a pink card: Tropical Flamingo by lovinpaper - at Splitcoaststampers

The original sized MISTI was used for creating this background and stamping the flamingo.

I am so happy to have found this challenge. I love my Misti and use it all the time. You can see my card HERE.

I have never figured that out...in the beginning you posted on the thread to win, now it appears the card just needs to go in your gallery.

Here is my entry. Thank you for the fun challenge. I used pink for the sky and in coloring on the trolls. Hope you like my card. It is struggling a bit. Did not use a Misti to stamp it. Could have been better.

By using the keyword, your posted card goes in the challenge gallery, where Misti Monday can randomly pick one as winner. Just putting the card in your own gallery won't enter it, that's why you HAVE to use the correct keyword for the month's challenge.

Here is my submission. I just got email from My Sweet Petunia with this technique, so thought it perfect for this challenge.

Thank you.

[Ozpom]

Here’s my card. Thank goodness I had my Misti to help me stamp my flowers. Thank you for the challenge. Happy day

I made another card for the challenge...

[Dsk1]

Here's a card for the pink challenge. I used my MISTI to double stamp my sentiment. I never would have gotten it lined up to stamp the second time otherwise!

[philsmom]

I used my Misti to place the leaves where I wanted and to get the sentiment straight and dark enough

I made another card with pink - in the flower petals. I use my Misti nearly every day - it sure takes the stress out of stamping.

I'm trying this challenge for the first time. I've looked at this challenge several times...but, just didn't have the time. I finally did!!!

Here is my card......Petals of Pink by SuzyS1104 - at Splitcoaststampers

I'm sure it would have much easier to line up my background stamps if I had a Misti. It doesn't look too bad. Needed to get this thank you card in the mail tomorrow.

[SuzyS1104]

Here is another one that I did with pink.....SuzyS1104 Member Gallery - Page 1 - Splitcoaststampers.com

I stamped several of these images for a group that I'm in. It would have been much easier to use a Misti. I saved one of the images that wasn't too bad...I had a spot that just didn't want to stamp right.

I am entering this card is the SCS Misti challenge for good reason. Yes, there is a lot of pink on it, but mainly because I used a wood-mounted stamp for this card (I rarely use them now that I own a Misti) and me-oh-my! I had to stamp it three times - on THREE pieces of paper until I got a good image. Sheesh! I missed using my Misit!!!

Here is the tutorial for helps with the MISTI and a wood stamp: Wood Mounts in the MISTI Tutorial - Splitcoaststampers

I use an old stamp positioner that has a shape like the Creative Corners and it works the same way as Dini's tutorial. I find it helpful as I still own a lot of wood block stamps.

[Forest Ranger]

WOW! Who knew??? Well, apparently Lisa did, but not me. ;)

Thanks Lisa! Game changer!!!

[lovinpaper]

Glad to help. Maybe you can find Duplo building blocks or Lego's to build your own. It does work, but it is a learning curve as you have to keep your paper in place and not move that positioner. I am fairly sure I use removable adhesive on the back of my paper as some of my wood blocks are large and there no room for the magnet, or keep my paper quite large.

Jeanette if you won you can then purchase the Creative Corners for using your wood blocks! I'd suggest 2 sets of them as I only have one and would like a second set for wood blocks.

I've done the Dina way many times because I still only have 1 set of Creative Corners...but recently watched a video on Creative Corners and went...wow...

[Forest Ranger]

Thanks for the suggestion, Faye. It would be great fun to win, though I doubt I will.

You have entered, that's where you start! There has gotten to be more people entering but it only takes one entry to win You did your part.

It continues to be a fun challenge most months and the unknown person who gives the $50 prize gives a gift that keeps on giving every time the MISTI products are used to make cards for others! Thanks MISTI Monday whoever you are.

[barbaralynn]

I too made a pink card this month for the challenge. One with lots of pink! And, I use my mini Misti on pretty much every stamped card--love it!

Good morning! Came on here to see how everyone is doing! It's a beautiful day where I am and today is my FRIDAY!

My daughter is visiting this weekend because we have a wedding to attend together on Saturday. I'm so excited I get to see her and her fiance.

Heading to the gallery to check the cards out so far!

Someone sent me a private message with their card because they are having trouble uploading their card to the gallery. Going to try and help her.

Have a great day ladies!
