#cardmaking #cardmakingideas
I made my own stamp positioner. Using a slim A4 plastic case, inserted foam sheet cut to size. Added a graph grid which I laminated to enable cleaning. It works really well and for very little cost. One day I will purchase a Misti but will need to justify the cost.
You clever thing! Well done! Thanks for watching!
Wow thanks for the idea. You said A4 and immediately I thought of a CD case. I used an older CD case as it is a little thicker than the newer ones, because i needed something to hold the stamps i have that are bigger than the stamp holders i purchased. So far so good. Thanks for the idea.
As always I thoroughly enjoy your videos. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.
Thanks for your kind words and for watching!
Girl YOU ARE AMAZING! Thanks for sharing your knowledge 😊
Thank you so much!!
Super helpful comparison video. Thank you Ardyth! ❤
Thanks so much for watching!
Absolutely beautiful!
Thank you so much!
A very well presented comparison. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
The colours are fantastic!
Thanks for dropping by, my friend!
Great review Ardyth. I have a Misti or two and I need to get Gina's wheel. Then my life will be perfect.
Not sure if I've told you before. Your voice is perfect for tutorials and such. It's so calming 😌 It's bedtime now. Could you grab a book to read to me 😂❤ Not a diss in anyway.
LOL! I'm glad you enjoy my voice - it's the only one I have! Thank you for the kind words, and for watching!
Great comparisons. Thank you for sharing 😊🤗
Thanks for watching!
All of your information is useful. Thank you so much.
Thanks for watching!
Beautiful cards 🥰 great demo of the different stamp positioner ❤️ thanks for sharing your creativity Hugs xx
Thanks so much!
Great comparison!!
Thanks so much for stopping by, Amy!
Love my Misti. I really like the stamp you used. I do crochet and it looks so like the real stitching for lack of a better word.
I thought so too! I am looking forward to trying some other colour combinations! Thanks for watching!
I did a little happy dance when I saw the Granny Squares stamp set. I fell in love with it and have had it a while but haven’t used it yet. Love how you used it with the stamp wheel! Thanks for all the tips 😃
Me too! I have been thinking about ways to get a granny square look in my card making, but a small stamp set like this really made it easy! Thanks for watching!
You are a master! That granny square? Schnikies!
Thanks so much, Mary. For watching and teaching me a new word! lol!
Mind blown 🤯 at your use if the stamp packaging for placement
LOL! It's a variation of Carly's tip of stamping on acetate to help with placement. I was about to do that when I saw the packaging sitting right there.... Thanks for watching, Sheri!
I thought about the stamp wheel but I'm not sure how my arthritic hands/wrists would like -- or probably not like!- the flipping motion. I'd likely drop it on my project! But the misti is my absolute must crafting tool; it's the only reason I was able to come back to stamping at all. Lovely cards 😊
I definitely have not had a problem with the stampwheel but I do not have arthritis in my hands, so that is not helpful for you. Definitely the MISTI door makes things super easy and reliable! Thanks so much for watching, Melissa!
AGH!!! Granny squares AND cards together??!! These are beautiful!
LOL! Right?! I was so excited when I found it! Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for this information!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks so much for watching!
Your granny quilt is beyond adorable! (And you have such patience.)
I have a bunch of stamp positions too and have given away some. Tool girls/women rule! One I have passed on is the Altenew wheel. Not into using both hands to lift it up and down 30 million times. (I do love the mini Gina K wreath builder.)
But I also gave away the Stencil 360 kit and bunches of stencils although it’s a remarkably cool tool. I wasn’t using it and someone wanted one. Better to rehome than ignore.
Thanks so much for watching!
I have 3! 😂 😭 Thank you Ardyth for your fair and thorough assessment of all of these platforms! I have been salivating over the Stampwheel but have to see if I’ll even use it as much as the Misti! ❤
Thanks so much for watching!
I love this stamp-I have a couple of granny square afghans my grandmother made.
My mom loves to crochet and for some reason, I just love granny squares! lol! Thanks for watching!
Great review. I only have the MISTI v.1. It still works so I’ve not replaced it. TFS.
That's great - my hinges broke on my original, but MSP was very good about replacing it. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for this video. I'm a newbie at cardmaking and didn't want to go too expensive until I was sure I enjoyed it. MISTI was not my 1st choice of stamping platform.
First i bought a Friskers stamping tool, which was a waste of money and I hated it, then I bought a Yescutting stamp platform for 1/2 the cost of the MISTII. I has serviced me fantastically. Now I'm ready to upgrade. This hobby can get extremely expensive, especially when you don't know what you REALLY need to begin slowly then build up. I wish I had seen this video back in June. Again, thank you!
Thanks so much for watching!
I have 2 of the original Misti's & the Stampin' Up Stamparatus. I love my Misti the best. Well worth the investment. 😊
Thanks so much for watching!
I bought one from a scrapbook store online and recently pulled it out after a couple of years sitting ona shelf and am just intimidated by it. You make it look so easy.
I think we can get too much in our minds about these things, wanting to be 'perfect' the first time we try something. Maybe just play with it at a time when you're not rushing to actually get something done, and I think you'll be surprised how quickly you figure it all out. Good luck!
That was interesting. I didn't know there were that many different kinds of them. I have a stamp positioner by diamondpress. It's similar to a Misti, but a lot less expensive. I love the granny squares that you made! They're really cute!
Thanks so much for watching!
I bought one from Amazon added some wood rulers from dollar tree. Works perfect and cost less than $15.
You clever thing! Well done! Thanks for watching!
@@ardyth Not clever cheap lol have grand babies so hobby comes last.
I have several also. 😂 And use them all for different things. Mini Misti is usually in my bag for going elsewhere. I have a small Tim Holtz one that I keep handy for smaller things. Original size Misti and Altenew are within reach. I keep the Altenew in the original box so far. Really great comparison!
Thanks so much for watching!
I love your comparison i have a mini misti
Thanks! I love my mini misti! Thanks for watching!
Great video, Ardyth! Love all the comparisons you did. I have 3 stamp positioner tools - the We R Memory Keepers Precision Press Advanced Stamping Tool, the original large Tim Holtz Stamping Platform, and the original sized Misti in the new turquoise color. I've got a few stick and stamp mats and just ordered a Waffle Flower grip mat for my Misti. I also have the Gina K wreath-builder set and a number of Concord & 9th turnabout stamps with the jig set. I thought about getting the Stamp Wheel, but I'm holding off for the time being. So glad to see you using that Altenew granny squares stamp set, I just recently got it and have only seen you and Jaycee use it! Your cards all turned out so cute with it, can't wait to get mine out and use it!
I am itching to make more granny squares - I think they are so fun! Thanks so much for watching!
Thanks 😊
Thanks for watching!
Super-useful! While I don't have the Sizzix or the Stamp Wheel, I DO have the Gina-K wreath-builder stencils and several Concord & 9th turnabouts with jig. Seems Iike I am all set ;) I did just order a mini-Misti, for exactly the advantage you mentioned, stamping sentiments smaller than a card front. Love that granny-square stamp, BTW, so cute and cozy!
The mini MISTI is large enough for as A2 card front.
Found this video from Justine's channel. Just what I was looking for.
It was so nice of Justine to mention my video and I'm glad it was helpful to you! Thanks for watching!
I was going to buy the Stamp Wheel but instead bought the Scrapbook size Misti. I love that I can stamp scrapbook size (12x12) pages and stamp 4 card fronts at once. I use my Gel Plate for stencils and it’s all good! I also have my TH one and one from Europe that looks like the Sizzix one. It’s my go-to. I find the TH one clunky!
Thanks so much for watching!
I have a misti and also a Tim Holtz one. The thing I like about the tim holtz one is that the door comes off like the sizzix you have there and the hinge has a metal bar so its really robust. It has 2 sides that don't have raised edges but you do still have the corner to easily line up so you can stamp on 8x8 cards without risking creasing the card if it overhangs which could happen if I used the misti on bigger pieces. Between the two I find i have the best of both worlds but I do like the look of the stamp wheel.
Thanks so much for watching!
I agree with some of the comments that MISTI is too expensive & it's sad they are so aggressive in suing other companies. I still like it for the raised corners that contain cardstock and the foam base pad. Stampwheel seems to allow for smudging if I don't lift or drop the wheel plate evenly. Sizzle reminds me of the Tim Holtz product, which I have and use with a foam pad & clear grid sheet to get good results.
I think that every company has the right to protect their patent and charge what they think their product is worth. If people don't buy it because of the price (or any reason), then that company will have to change their strategy. I just wish that we didn't have to argue about it here. I agree with you that the Sizzix tool is similar to the Tim Holtz platforms, while being much bigger. Thanks so much for watching!
@@ardyth I love my time holtz one. I have that and the original misti. I use the tim holtz one bigger pieces as it doesn't have that raised edge on 2 sides but you do still have the corner. I like that the door comes off and that the hinge is so strong. I use either depending on whether the card will overhang or not and if I want the door off which I find helps with precision when colouring a stamp with markers rather than using an ink pad.
@@ardythTrue...consumers biggest power comes from buying or not buying a product or service. At the same time, I don't know that expressing concerns or opinions about a company is neccesarily arguing, though. It's just discussion about a topic related to the content of the video. I do feel badly that the discussion doesn't seem to sit well with you, though. It probably is a reflection of your nature, which seems to be very kind and makes sense why it would bother you. I think this particular thing probably generates SO MUCH discussion because it is an anomaly in this industry/community. All the other companies and creators I've seen are all so supportive of each other. The fact that this one isn't that way REALLY stands out. I was floored when I first heard about it when researching 2 or 3 years ago which platform to get. I didn't believe what I was reading in comments because I'd never come across such a thing in this community before. I then did my own research on it and made my own decision about buying or not buying the product. I wonder (just came to me) if it also might have something to do with anonymity? We all know, for example, who Tim is - so much so I don't even have to say his last name 😁 - because he's visible. People feel like they know him and support him and his products. But with MSP, I have no idea who the face of that company is or the story or struggle or whatever. It's harder to empathize with a Corporation (capital intended) than with an individual so for folks who get heated or passionate about it that might be part of the reason maybe? And, of course, that might not have anything to do with it at all! 😂 In any event, your video is great. You explain them all very well and the demonstrations are, as always, super helpful. I really appreciate the time you put into all your videos, Ardyth - thank you!
@@lucyc Thanks for taking the time to write this kind and thoughtful comment. Since posting this video, and removing some comments, and upsetting some viewers (and losing subscribers), I have been thinking about this a lot, and wondering how (or if) I should be moderating comments on my channel. I believe people have the right to their opinion, and I believe that their feelings about and experiences with certain companies are valid. I am just not convinced that this is the best forum for those kinds of comments that can't help improve the situation in any way. They are rarely framed as just 'passing on helpful information', and are often very hurtful and unkind. I don't want that here. As you say, fortunately, this situation is a bit of an anomaly. I try hard to be positive and helpful, and it upsets me when things take a negative turn. Thanks for reaching out!
@@ardyth It is definitely unfortunate when people can't frame their thoughts and opinions as constructive dialogue. Simply sharing thoughts/ideas is great - even (or especially) when they differ. When it takes a turn down a vitriolic path, though, it becomes something else. Navigating all that on your channel must really be difficult. Bless your heart, Ardyth, for doing it! I've thought a few times about getting into the content-creator universe and that's one of the things that keeps me out of it. You're an angel for forging through!💗🇨🇦💗
Thanks, Ardyth. Since I’m on a budget the original Misti is my only positioner but maybe someday…
Thanks so much for watching!
Thx Ardyth. I actually have the now retired Stampin up Stamparatus which is similar to the misti but has 2 doors you can move ve up and down. I use Good na K wreath builder with it. I would like to get a Mini Misti.
That Stamparatus sounds pretty cool - seems like lots of people really like it! Thanks for watching!
Love my MISTI...still have the original, but also bought the Mini for some reason. Turns out I reach for that little guy a lot! Resisted the MISTI in the beginning, BUT now can't imagine how I stamped without it! Not interested in anything else.
The MISTI was definitely a game changer for stamping. Thanks so much for watching!
Ardyth, i think you gave a fair comparison. I have 2 regular Misti’s, original and 2.0, plus a mini. I dont really do wreaths except for turnabouts. For me, there’s just no reason for another stamping tool. Did try the TH platform but found it too flimsy for stamping well. The Misti is solid and reliable IMHO.
Thanks so much for watching, Kristine!
I have a full sized Tim Holtz from when they were sold in the States. Back then I used a 40 or 50 percent off coupon at a store. I have a Memory MISTI from when you could use coupons on the Hero Arts branded ones at Joann fabrics. I like the MISTI for clear stamps and the Tim Holtz for rubber stamps. For wreaths I love my Tond-Oh, but I am not sure if Katia Kalinine makes those anymore.
OH, I have a Tond-Oh too! I forgot! I need to get it out! Thanks for watching!
@@ardyth I used a friend's wreath maker, but I find tbe tond-oh easier.
I have got several stamp positioners too. I would have said what I didn't like about my first one, was there was no corner to butt against, and the next one, similar to the one everyone talks about (sorry I really do not like the company) but the mat kept slipping, hinge broke, then I got the Sizzix one, which I've had most success with, made me want to do more techniques. I couldn't resist the stampwheel, as I love wreaths, and the idea of the large lump of photopolymer for sticking and reverse stamping, plus I saw someone arc a sentiment (Seven Hills) and make a circle with it. And thank you for your video, you reminded me I can move the lid. I love them granny squares ❤
Ardyth I’m wondering which to buy the sizzix stamp and spin vs the Altenew stamp wheel for wreaths? What do you think
Good question and I will be part of the Catherine Pooler video hop on this tool next week. If I were starting fresh, I would buy the Stamp and Stencil Tool (you need to buy that if you don't already have it, for the Stamp and Spin to work) and Stamp and Spin tool, and I would use it as both a positioner and spin tool. Right now, I'm using the stamp and spin tool (with the stamp and stencil base) for everything and I'm loving it. That's a lot of words, and I hope they're clear - if not let me know and I'll do my best to help further! lol!
Do you prefer the waffle flower grip mat rather than a regular sticky mat inside the Misti?
That's a great question! They both serve the purpose of holding the cardstock in place, and I think a regular sticky mat is probably cheaper, but I like the idea that the WF grip mat won't lose its stickiness and need to be replaced. It hasn't so far... lol! I did wear out a couple of my Brutus Monroe Stamp & Stick mats, but I loved them as well. Thanks for watching!
@@ardyth thank you for your comprehensive explanations and reviews!
I’m wondering how the We R Makers Precision Press compares to these? That’s what I have and there are times when I’m using a stamp with very fine details and it seems the stamp does not stamp in *exactly* the same place. There is the tiniest amount of wiggle room - a fraction of a millimeter - but it’s noticeable with finely detailed stamps. Is this true for other stamping platforms as well?
Because Misti has the patent on the hinged stamp platform in the US, the other brands had to come up with something different. WRM Precision press is probably that has the most wiggle room.
I did have that one for a while, and I remember that about that tool. Definitely I have not had that issue with my 4 tools. I think the Sizzix one (with the moveable door) would be the one to most likely have a similar issue, but because of the size of that door, I rarely use it to stamp sentiments. Thanks for watching!
I have just one, my Tim Holtz stamping platform. So much better and fairly priced. $30 for the large one. All of these are way over priced.
I have TH too, I had researched and made up my mind to get this one, only to have hopes dashed that it was discontinued! After a few months finally found one on ebay for $25 + shipping. I found I have to keep a piece of 'fun foam' under my card to get a good impression (I have it on the clear side), but I am beyond happy with it! I won't support the other company.
@@jeanpolkoski2107you have voiced my sentiments exactly! I found a “back up” from a British vendor when I heard they were no longer able to sell in the US I like it so much! Love that I can use odd sized paper in it easily and it’s a quick flip of the cover to change stamps to accommodate thickness variances. 🧑🏼🎨
I had that one at one point too! Thanks for watching!
@@Mari-cre8s So true! I love that it can be used for rubber and clear stamps too. I literally handle it with kid gloves knowing that I can't get another nor will I buy any of these. I can't believe how much they are.
@@ardyth Do you like the Tim Holtz version?
I don't understand why no one talks about the Stampin' Up positioner. It's by far the best one I've ever used. Is it because it's sold through demonstrators? If so, that's a stupid reason to not include it in your comparison. You're not doing a real service to your viewers by leaving this out - but you're not the only one that ignores this amazing platform. EDIT - I'm NOT a demonstrator and I got it online used.
Maybe she just doesn't have it.
Oh, no! This is not just directed at Ardyth - I love her. It's just that I NEVER see these comparison videos using the one I have.
maybe because it is no longer available to purchase - new that is. Stampin Up was forced to cease selling it because MSP sued them.
@@pattyh2410 I didn't know that, but I don't think it's the reason as I've been making cards for years and could have purchased it online at the time. I've never seen any card maker use it unless they were demonstrators. I just find that strange. I actually also have a Misti but don't use it. Must be a reason
LOL! I don't have a Stamparatus, but I know that there is a strong, loyal following for it (kinda makes me wish I had purchased it while it was available!) It had the two-door system, right? I bet that allows for some really cool techniques. I think the reason you will see only demonstrators using it is because that's how they make money (and at least at one point, they weren't allowed to use nonSU! stuff). And non-demos don't tend to use it because they can't make money on it. If I ever find one, I'll try it out and post an update to this video. Thanks for all the feedback and for watching!
I wonder how long will the Sizzix tool will be available. MSP will probably go after them like they have others that have, correction:HAD, a hinged stamp posititioner. Thanks.
Sizzix tool as well as Stampin' Up Stamparatus do have hinges, but they are different. They are not fixed hinges. They are one step further.
@@turkey1528 Sorry, my point is that the Stamparatus is no longer available to purchase because MSP sued them for copyright - hinged stamp positioner. Even though it is vastly different the MSP tool. Again, wondering how long before MSP goes after Sizzix and forces them to cease selling them. Note how many other hinged stamp positioners are no longer available - Tim Holtz, WR Memory keepers, etc.
Thanks for watching! I'm going to leave the legal stuff to the companies involved and just enjoy the products I have that make my crafty life easier and more fun!
