Such a cute birthday card, love the rainbow colors you used for the cake. This would make a wonderful card for my great niece! Thank you Vicky. I would like to hear your opinion on the stamp platform.
Did someone say chocolate cake??!!!!! Adorable card and it’s good to see you using purple again!!!! This video reminds me that I have a b’day cake die that I don’t think I’ve ever used. Yes, I would like to see a review of the stamp platform. I did find a company in the US that has it available and several more that are currently “out of stock” (maybe they’re waiting for their order to arrive?). The magnet holders would be great. During the black Friday sales I finally invested in a MISTI and the first thing that happened after opening it was I accidentally dropped the magnet and it split in 3 (but taped it up so I can still use it). If you wouldn’t mind, I would also like to see a review of the magic mat. I’ve watched a few videos on it and read some reviews, but it wasn’t that helpful to me in making a decision. For instance, I would really like to know if it makes any difference on intricate dies since I have a really … really hard time getting intricate dies to cut (so much so that I’ve given up buying any more intricate dies). Also, how long does it last? I’ve also read that some people are buying inexpensive self-healing mats and cutting them down to fit their machine. I feel rather confused!!!! Anyway, thanks for the video — as always. BTW, I love your nail polish art on the ring finger of your left hand!! Enjoy the day and your weekend!
Hi Debbie, here are some answers regarding your comment! Hope they will help!
Intricate dies need a metal shim, do you use one? Once you get that you will never have any issues again!
The magnet holders stick nicely on top of the stamp press even though they have that plastic cover because they attach directly on the board but if you try to use them on the MISTI they are not strong enough since there is the plastic cover of the magnet plus the MISTI foam between the magnet and the board. Hope that makes sense.
As fot the nail polish I am a big fun of MOYOU London, love their polishes and stamping system!
Hi, Vicky! I’ve tried card stock shims and some other tips I’ve heard about, but I don’t have a metal shim. Will consider that. Thanks for the tip on the magnet holders not working with a MISTI. Makes perfect sense! Appreciate that. I’ve never before commented on someone’s nail polish, but I couldn’t help it with yours!!! Thank you for the reply.
Such a cute card Vicky. This will brings a smile on every birthday boy or girl’s face.
Thank you so much for sharing, stay safe and have a wonderful day.
HI, Vicky –
I would always like to hear any review you would like to give. I tried to create an account and there is no place for USA. Then I got a message saying that the company you linked to only sells to businesses in USA, not individuals. Darn! Please work your contacts, Vicky… that work surface looks great! It looks like the Wendy Vecchi Make Art Stay-tion.
Your card is ADORABLE. I love it! TFS –
