I tried stamping about 10 years ago with a couple wood stamps and gave up quickly. I'm too shaky and never got a good image. Second time around about three years ago I wanted to try again and bought a Misti. I've been hooked ever since! My stamp press has also helped my hand pain/weakness! Lastly, watching crafters like you is my #1 most important tool! You help people feel confident that they too can try this! Thanks, Cathy!

Good evening, this isJacqui. I live in Jamaica and on a very slow cardmaking journey. Your video has been eye opening. your Ideas are really novel to me. I started but challenged with the cost of purchasing and shipping but impressed with what can be accomplished by following your suggestions. Great job.

Hi Cathy. I have never commented before on your videos. You DO make me laugh a lot :) I bought a silicone mat. off amazon about a year ago. Measures 15"x24", 1/8" thick, blue color. I LOVE this mat. Keeps work area CLEAN, ink pads don't slide about, can ink blend on it and then the ink just wipes off, can heat emboss and not worry about the heat. Glitter does stick - put EVERYTHING glitter, ink, glue wipes right off with a baby wipe. LOVE this thing!! Best think I have purchased since the Misty. try it - you'll LOVE it!! Have not tried alcohol inks - don't believe those would wipe off :) - still use glass for that. ha ha

@cici7329 2 жыл бұрын

Excellent! Love top 5 suggestions. Embossing powder bag is the bomb. Often see attempts to emboss but there's embossing powder left in places where don't want and embossing ends up wonky. And using a paint brush to remove a lot of wayward power seems tedious with potential to mess up the design - I'd likely end up doing just that. 🙄 Thanks!
