MFT 2019 Card Design Superstar Contest

Hello, today I have made a card for the MFT 2019 

Card Design Superstar contest Clean and Simple Genius category.

I recently purchased the Tweet Friends stamp set and I can't stop using it!  Those little singing birds are so cute!

I started by sponging some pink ink using the MFT Mix-ables cloud stencil and kept it to the lower right hand corner. I stamped the bird onto a separate piece of card stock and coloured it in with alcohol markers and Prisma pencils. I fussy cut the image out and adhered it onto my stencilled background with some foam tape for a bit of dimension.  I stamped the sentiment from the same set and adhered that directly underneath the bird then stamped some of the music notes directly onto the card panel.  I cut my card panel slightly smaller than my card base and adhered it with a piece of craft foam.

I hope you like my card today.

Stenciling Challenges and MFT stamp set

Hello and happy Monday!  Today I have two cards using stencils as backgrounds.  I have a new MFT stamp set by Stacey Yacula called Tweet Friends and the little birds are so adorable.  Thanks to my friend Michelle Lupton for enabling me!!

For my first card I blended some Catherine Pooler ink in one corner of my card panel. Then I placed the "Perfect Vine" stencil also from Catherine Pooler over the top and pressed a baby wipe over to take some of the ink off.  I coloured in the sweet little bird with Copics and Prisma pencils and adhered it with some foam tape.  The sentiment strip is from The Ton's new Birthday Sentiment Strips printables.

I am entering this into the CAS Stencil Challenge which is "baby wipes".

I made my second card using the Grid Stencil from Altenew with CP Ink and my blending brushes.  I coloured another one of the cute birds from MFT with Copics and Prisma pencils.  The sentiment is again from The Ton printables.

I am entering this card into the AAA Birthday Challenge which is "Use a Stencil"

Thanks for looking and have a great week!

WWC231 - Tristan's "All About Occasions" Challenge

Hello, it's Wednesday and that means it's time for a new Watercooler Wednesday Challenge!

This week Tristan is our host with an "All About Occasions" Challenge.

For my card I have used a new stamp set in my collection from MFT called "Sending sweet celebration wishes" by Stacey Yacula.

There are so many cute images in this set, I can see this will get a lot of use from me.  I stamped the bunny in CP Midnight ink and coloured with Alcohol markers.  I cut it out with my scan n cut but forgot to add the border so it cut right up to the edge and therefore I lost the pom pom on the hat!  I stencilled a background using the CP Designs "Swoop" stencil and added the sentiment from the same MFT set.

Come join in the fun at Watercooler Wednesday.  All you have to do is make a  card for any occasion and link it up to our challenge post.  Check out the projects that the other artists at Watercooler Wednesday Challenges have created for some inspiration. We’d love to have you join us.  You have until Tuesday, 30th July at 09.00am Melbourne Time or Monday 29thJuly  5pm US Mountain Time to link up your project.
