I'm a sucker for all paper crafting tools but especially ones that make things easier and more precise! (yes, it's the scientist in me:) So a few months ago when I heard about this new stamp positioner called a MISTI, I was definitely intrigued! Unfortunately, it was also sold out. Bummer, right? Well luckily for me, I have friends who love paper crafting supplies as much as I do! My sweet, sweet friend Wida managed to snag a MISTI for me and sent it to me as a surprise. I love that gal! And what do you know it, I love my MISTI!
After using my MISTI for a couple months, I've worked out a few kinks and put them in a video.
Hope you pick ed up a couple new tricks! By the way, I have no affiliation with the the company that produces the MISTI (My Sweet Petunia) and I have not been compensated for this post. Just spreading the love!

Wish I had some friends like yours LOL. As things stand, the Misti is still on my wish list. Do you prefer using tape to using the magnets that can be bought as accessories?
ReplyDeleteI've never used the magnets, so I can't give a thumbs up or down. I'm a big fan of the tape just because it's so gentle. No sticky residue or dents from the magnets. Let us know if you try them!
DeleteNice friend! :)
ReplyDeleteDefinitely!
DeleteGreat tips, JJ! Mahalo!
ReplyDeleteThat Wida is something else!
Ain't she though!
DeleteGreat video JJ, and good tips too, they make a lot of sense and I think will keep the Misti in good condition for longer too!
ReplyDeleteI just got a MISTI last week and absolutely love it!! Thanks so much for the tips!!
ReplyDeleteReally great tips, JJ...especially using the brayer! This tool is at the top of my wishlist right now :)
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome gift to receive! Very nice friend and gesture.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your tips.
WICKED AWESOME!!!! It's a GREAT tool and tanks for the tips. You should get some of those magnets from the MISTI lady. They hold the card down without need for tape. Oh...I guess that was a tip from me!!! HA!!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to share this in the MISTIfied Facebook Group. You should join! Great tips, thanks!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the great tips! I'm filing these away for the day I can get one! That brayer idea is so smart!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tips, JJ. I love my MISTI.
ReplyDeleteThat Wida is AWESOME!! Thank you for these tips. This tool is on my wish list!!
ReplyDeleteI love Wida too! Love your quick video filled with lots of tips on using this new product. Definitely not a no-brainer, I've never considered wiping my stamp inbetween impressions with the same ink. But now that you say that, I have had ink from another layer on the card come up slightly and contaminate the next image. That's when I toss the card and start over, hahaha! Now I'll just be smarter about it : )
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your tips! I recently got the MISTI and really appreciate the tips as I've been so worried about breaking it or messing up! Loooove the brayer idea and making sure there's something on the backside of the lid when inking things up. I get nervous when I hear the acrylic squeaking!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your expertise with the Misti! I'm still on the fence about getting one but I appreciate the tips. Mahalo to you! ♥
ReplyDeleteGreat tips - it looks like a fantastic tool but haven't decided yet if I "need' it - LOL
ReplyDeleteyeah!!! Can't wait to watch :))) I love your brainy brain!
