Now for the deets on my cards
For the first card I started with a white top folding card base, a Black Onyx panel for the mat and a white panel for the front. I used the Peacock Mandala stencil by Picket Fence Studios and Gina K Designs Glitz Glitter Gel by Thermoweb in the Turquiose Sea and Wild Lilac. If you have never tried the glitter gel you need to, it is so easy to spread and the clean up is easy peasy. For the Greeting I used the Hey You word die also by Picket Fence Studios. I cut it out using the Peel & Stick Toner sheets by Thermoweb and ran it through the laminator using Gina K Designs Fancy Foils transfer sheets also by Thermoweb. I placed the negative piece of the die cut in the MISTI to add the word. Doing this makes it so much easier to line up. This is how versatile the MISTI is, it helps me in so many other ways than just stamping.
To create the second card I used the Rainbow Shattered Glass foil transfer sheet along with the Peacock Tail Stencil and the Everything die by Picket Fence Studios. I started with a White top folding card base, a Black Onyx panel an a white panel. I placed the Peacock stencil on the white panel and covered it using Transfer gel by Thermoweb, after it was completely dry I cut a piece of the Rainbow Shattered Glass foil and laid it pretty side up across the panel and ran it through the laminator. For the greeting I used the Everything word die by Picket Fence Studios, I cut the background out of vellum and the everything out of black onyx. I placed the negative in the MISTI and lined it up easy peasy.
