So, the story of this card. I watched a You Tube video and saw the most genius hack ever! Using [what was currently being used in my car, for my cell phone not to slide all over the place], to using in my MISTI for adhering un-adhered wood based stamps! [I use to use double sided tape, which really wasn't to good - the sticky got all over my MISTI - a hug mess]. Check this out:
I was SO IMPRESSED with this hack, that I ordered a 5 pack from Amazon for like $5! You can also cut this mat if you want it smaller - you can use it to hold ink pads on your desktop, you can put one [back in] your car! The list is crazy. (No affiliated, just sharing a terrific hack!)
Now, back to my card. You would of thought this card was easy peasy to make - HA! This is the 3rd try, and yep, there is a smudge at the bottom and I don't care - 3 times is my limit :)
I do like the finished [very CAS] result, but the best part, was being able to use my SU stamps that I have had for like 25+ years! This hack will be a game changer for me.
Sorry I rambled, I just wanted to share. So, it's your turn to play along. Just upload your card over at JUGS #762 showing how Friend inspired you~
Thanks for stopping by~

Love this simple but impactful design, Vicki! And thank you for passing on this product tip! I love my Misti and have removed the rubber from many beloved stamps and it's a pain using them. I've ordered these mats! Hugs, Darnell
CAS and ever so lovely!
That is a most beautiful CAS design! Cool way you have discovered using your stamp too!
Vicki... fabulous CAS card! Love the hack...already checked it out! Also now you know the true reason for my making duplicates of every card... all will be donated but one will be perfect for photographing!
Super simple but elegant card. Love it. Also the tip about the mat. I have one that I haven't ever used and I am going to dig it out today and keep it with my Misti. That is a very clever hack! Thanks for sharing
Good ideas are always welcome, Vicki. I don't have wood stamps but I'm glad this trick brought yours out because that rose is beautiful in its simplicity.
This is such a stunning CAS!! YES, I saw that hack as well...so now I'm on a mission for my rubber stamps on blocks!! LOL
Classic perfect CAS card Vicki.
This is so pretty and elegant in design! Love the hack, already ordered!
Absolutely gorgeous CAS design! I love the stamps and sentiment! I've become a huge fan of MISTI Sticky Mats!
