Darsie also shows you how to make marbled colored vellum using alcohol inks and a heat gun, which you can then use with your favorite dies to create flowers or sentiments.

Here are a few of my favorite projects using these stamps.
Becca Feeken designed this beautiful card using the frame from Filigree Journal Covers Cling Stamps. (yours for just $5.00 - original price was $22.95).
Plus our Spellbinders Sale ends tonight at Midnight EST. (Monday May 18th, 2015).
Welcome to Tutorial Tuesday, today Heidi Blankenship shares how to use the MISTI Stamping Tool with our clear stamps and our cling stamps. This tool is perfect for using with our multi-step stamps.
To use MISTI with cling stamps remove the black foam piece.
You can use the tool facing you or turned to the side--whichever works best for you. In the video I turned it to the side so it would fit better on my desk for the video.
For the first card I am using the CR-02187 Multi-Step Lilac Bouquet stamp set. Open the MISTI and place your cardstock in the corner. *This is important to make sure your paper is always lined up in the corner. Place the clear stamp on your paper where you would like to stamp it. Close the lid on the MISTI and the stamp will cling to the lid. (I recommend pushing on the lid to make sure the entire stamp has adhered to the plastic grid).
Open the lid and apply ink to the stamp and close the lid and press on it.
Remove the stamp and clean the stamp and any ink that may have gotten on the grid. Line up the second lilac stamp on top of the stamped image. (as seen in the video). Close the lid on the MISTI so the stamp will cling to it. Ink the stamp and close the lid for perfect placement stamping.
Remove the stamp. Line up the second lilac stamp on top of the stamped image. Close the lid on the MISTI so the stamp will cling to it. Ink the stamp and close the lid for perfect placement stamping.
See how beautifully aligned that stamps are....
I just keep repeating the process with the multi-stamps as I build up the layers to the images. Remove the stamp.
Here is a closeup of my card in progress.
The key to getting perfect placement with the MISTI tool is to always make sure your cardstock is lined up in the corner. Also, if you like to make multiple cards with the same design just leave the stamps in place and stamp as many times as needed and then move on to the next stamp. You will be able to create a stack of cards in no time!
Here you can see some of the glittery areas of my butterfly and lilacs.
Next I want to show you how easy it is to use our JustRite Background Cling Stamps with the Misti. Simply remove the black foam from the Misti. I placed the background stamp face down inside of the MISTI tool.
Close the lid and press down so the stamp will cling on the inside. Open the MISTI and place a piece of paper inside. Ink up the background stamp and close the lid.

We were so excited to read your comments on the blog and on our YouTube Channel this week that Darsie has inspired you to create your own stamped candles. And we thought you might still need to make a Mother's Day Gift or two. So Darsie has written a full tutorial and supply list for you. You can see Darsie creating her candle on this week's YouTube Channel at the 7:00 minute time stamp.
6 inch Pillar Candle (preferably white or ivory), White Tissue Paper, 2 inch square of White Cardstock, Wax Paper, Heat Gun
Inks:Assorted Water-Based Inks (I used Memento Summer Sky and Grape Jelly for the Lilacs, Bamboo Leaves and Pistachio for the Leaves, LuLu Lavender and Grape Jelly for the Butterfly)
Accessories: Ivory Silk Ribbon, Pearl Tipped Stick Pin
Instructions:
Cut a piece of tissue, 5 x 9 inches. Stamp the lilacs and greenery with ink and allow to dry. Trim excess tissue from the top if there is any.
Wrap the stamped tissue around the candle.
Wrap wax paper around the candle, on top of the tissue paper. Use a sheet of wax paper that is larger than the candle, so that you can use the extra to hold the candle.
Using a heat gun, you’ll add heat to the wax paper on the candle and the surface wax will melt and embed the stamped tissue into the candle.
Allow the wax to cool and then remove the wax paper.
Stamp the butterfly on cardstock and cut out. Attach the butterfly to the candle with a stick pin. Add a silk ribbon bow.

Darsie Bruno shows you in today's video how to create this gorgeous paper basket. You can find a full supply list for recreating this basket at the bottom of this post.
Directions on Cutting and Scoring Basket Base: To create the basket base, cut 2 white cardstock panels 7 x 8 inches. On the 7 inch side, score at 3 ¾ inches.
Next turn the paper and score at 3 ¾ inches and 7 ½ inches. Cut the large side tab out and then cut the scored line to the left of the cut tab up to the middle scored line. Fold all remaining scored lines. (check out the video to see how quick and easy it is to create this basket).
Here is a close up view of one side of the basket. The sentiment is from tomorrow's release set Choose Joy Clear Stamps.
To create the design on your basket stamp all 4 basket side panels as shown in the video, then put your basket together by gluing one bottom flap to the other bottom flap on one panel. Repeat this process for the second panel. Add glue to the small side tab and bottom on one folded panel and attach it to the side and bottom of the other panel. Glue the last tab into place to finish the base.
Here's another view of the basket. Isn't it gorgeous!
Plus as a bonus project at the end of Darsie's video she shows you how to create this beautiful stamped candle using tissue paper and wax. If you haven't created a stamp candle yet this would be a perfect Mother's Day Gift. It is so simple to make.
