MFT So Much Love


Hi Lovelies...

I'm back with another card using one of these little girlies from MFT.  I really do love their cuteness...  but I promise I'll put them away again for a while after today!

I decided to go for turquoises today - using a smooshed background and some matting and layering.  I fussy cut the girlie that I'd coloured, then created a little cloudy panel with some blended grass, for her to stand on - so she didn't look like she was floating!  I adhered her with foam pads, and the card was done.

Pink MFT Girlies


Hi Lovelies...

It's pink time again for me... (when is it not?!)  So today I'm sharing a couple of cards using older MFT stamps that are sitting in my stash - too nice not to be used again, so out they came!

Both are stamped, coloured and fussy cut.  Then I created backgrounds for them using Distress Oxide blending onto a panel, which is then splattered with gold watercolour paint.. (SO difficult to catch on camera!)


Card Info:
Image - MFT Because You're Special
Paper - from stash
Distress Oxide - Spun Sugar
Gold Watercolour Paint
Colouring - Copics
Skin - E000/00/11 R20
Hair E21/23
Clothes and Flowers R81/83/85
Pot - E40/42
Gold Glitter Glue


My second card is using another of these cute little girlies... this time the sent is called Love You a Bunch...  I made it very similarly to the one above, even with the same colours.... just different paper for the background.  Ooh and I also drew the little flowers on her dress with a white gel pen and a yellow centre.


So two cards in PINK!  

I'm loving creating with my older stash..  I encourage you to have a peek through your own and see what you can enjoy using again..  or sometimes use for the first time!

MFT In Focus Florals Die Set


Hey Peeps...

Today I'm sharing a couple of cards I made with an MFT die set called In Focus Florals...  they are CAS cards - so easy to make. 

Firstly, I did a bit of Distress Oxide blending through a rectangle die onto die cut card panels.  I used three different greens to graduate the colour, and then I splattered with gold watercolour paint.  Then I adhered the floral die cuts..  adding a tiny sentiment which I'd stamped and heat embossed in white, on black cardstock.  Lastly, I matted the panel onto some dotty green cardstock.


Card Info:
Dies - MFT In Focus Florals Die Set
MFT stitched rectangles
Distress Oxides - Shabby Shutters, Peeled Paint, Bundled Sage
Sentiment - The Stamp Market Tons of Type
Dotty Cardstock
Gold Watercolour Paint

If you scroll on, you'll see the second card I made - just with another of the three dies that are included in the set.



Hope you like my makes today...

Marion Emberson Designs On Your Special Day


Hi Lovelies..

As you know, I'm sorting through my older stash to see what I'd like to use again, in maybe a different way than I've done before.

Today, I've used this gorgeous Marion Emberson Designs stamp set called For Your Special Day.  I stamped it in black onto a Distress Oxide blended background I'd created using a circle stencil - then added some gold watercolour splatter, a tiny die cut butterfly, and a little sentiment.  Finally, I drew a little butterfly trail, then adhered the panel onto pale pink cardstock.


Card Info:
Image - Marion Emberson Designs On Your Special Day 
(no longer available)
Sentiment - Clearly Besotted Fancy That (again not available)
Distress Oxides - Spun Sugar, Kitsch Flamingo and Dried Marigold
Gold Watercolour Paint
MFT Stitched Rectangle Die
Hero Arts Butterfly Confetti Die

Hope you like my make today - I really do love splattering on my cards - especially in gold!

Big hugs

Simon Says Stamp Swing Blossoms


Hi Lovelies...

OK, I'm back again with another card using the Simon Says Stamp Swing Blossoms..  this time I decided to use a background paper to see how it looked.  It's still CAS, but I am happy as I was able to use different colours on the flowers (this time I used Copics) - and I also added a couple of vellum butterflies.


The card info this time is very similar to my previous cards, with the exception of the Copics (RV17/63 G82) - and the butterflies, which are Hero Arts Confetti Butterflies.  The paper is a digital stripe paper from Pink Petticoat.

I know I'm going to use this die a lot in the future - there are so many different ways to use it!

Hope you like...

Hugs..
