I'm trying to find here in Spain the Altenew Crisp ink pad but I had not luck at the moment��, I only could find a few Aktenew Stamps.<br />Thanks for your videos in Youtube��Isabelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13501130470576059552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7851029484878125041.post-43346431029955124152016-03-25T14:04:02.098-07:002016-03-25T14:04:02.098-07:00PS.

Or are there rosebuds on there that I'm not seeing as such?Carol Rossouwhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01279321411321809284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7851029484878125041.post-29704960127032020932016-03-25T14:01:59.990-07:002016-03-25T14:01:59.990-07:00Oh Helen, this is absolutely beautiful - and so cl...Oh Helen, this is absolutely beautiful - and so clever with the overlapping image on the circle die cut. I told you it was because of your beautiful cards with these vintage roses that I bought a set for myself. Well, after watching a few videos using this set, I also ordered myself a MISTI. At first I thought of ways to try and make my own MISTI, because the cost of getting it to me here in Namibia is just as (if not more!) expensive - especially with our exchange rate of 15 to 1! But then my dear husband said, "Just get it!" I did, and am not one bit sorry, It REALLY helps for lining the stamps up (even my very first attempt was spot on. And like you, I have limited inks to work with, but with the MISTI you can double or triple stamp some colours to get a darker shade. (For ink I ordered the two sets of 12 little Memento tear drop dye inks & now have 24 colours to choose from at a very much less expensive price than buying the bigger pads separately, and they stamp these flowers and roses beautifully). Your cards really are lovely, & I can't wait to see what you create. It's what I love - femininely beautiful. And your flowers on your cards have always inspired me - though I have yet to get mine looking as lovely as yours :)) Blessings!Carol Rossouwhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01279321411321809284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7851029484878125041.post-83151065367878472622016-03-24T23:13:07.144-07:002016-03-24T23:13:07.144-07:00This is beautiful Helen.
