I’m using Sending Thanks for my card today. I started with a Primitive White card stock base, then added a little strip of Sweet Tooth card stock on which I’d stamped an image from LJD Art Expression Text stamped with Black Licorice ink. I added some Kraft corrugated paper on that, then cut my sentiment panel from Primitive White card stock with a die from the soon-to-be-released Die-namics Pierced Rectangle STAX set. I stamped several images from Sending Thanks on it, in Black Licorice ink, Tangy Orange ink, and Berrylicious ink, then popped it up on foam after matting it with Black Licorice card stock. I added a little Tangy Orange ribbon and hemp cord-tied Berrylicious button element under the edge. I finished it off with a few scattered enamel dots.

I stamped another sentiment from the set on the inside, with Black Licorice ink.

I did another scrapbook page for my project today—another one documenting our trip to Florida in May to the MFT Retreat. The day after all the MFT festivities was my birthday and my DH and I spent it at Disney. I’d been to Disneyland but never to Disney World so since we were SO close we took advantage of it. We were only there one day so my goal was Magic Kingdom and Epcot and we made them both so this “Bucket List” element is PERFECT! :)

I started with some Kraft card stock and stitched on a sheet of patterned paper, the edges of which I distressed. Then I brushed on some gesso  and created some bricks to match those in the photos with MPD Brick Wall stencil and some molding paste; I sponged on some Brick Red ink for color after it was dry. I stamped the lines from LLD Journal It – Take Note on Primitive White card stock cut with Die-namics LLD Insert It – 3 x 4 Insert with Berrylicious ink then stamped “Bucket List” with the soon-to-be-released Steel Gray ink. Yep, that’s one of the new colors of ink for September and I’m happy dancin’ about that! I added the check marks from the set with Brick Red ink and the paper clip with Black Licorice ink.

I slipped a Die-namics Boy Meet Girl border, cut from Steel Gray card stock on top of the bricks, then mounted the photos, which were matted with Steel Gray card stock as well. My next step was to cut some Die-namics Stacking Stars from glitter paper and scatter them around. Then I created the “negative” strip by adding some acetate behind a Die-namics Mini Film Strip die cut after running the acetate strip through some Copic refill ink over and over until I got the effect I was looking for. I wish I could take credit for this idea, but I CASE’d it from Tara Godfrey, a former MFT designer :)

To finish it off, I stamped the tickets from a previously released set, DC Just the Ticket with Steel Gray ink and the stick pin is from LLD Journal It – Take Note, stamped with Steel Gray ink and Brick Red ink. This was really a fun page to do—looking forward to my next one :)

I have a couple of cards to show you today using MPD Winged Beauties and Die-namics MPD Winged Beauties. I love butterflies—they work for EVERTHING! Birthdays, weddings, sympathy, and everything in between. These sets are fabulous, with several sizes of butterflies and some SWEET sentiments.  

For my first card, I first stamped some background paper with last month’s
Plaid Builder Background set using Jellybean Green ink on Primitive White card stock and matted it with Black Licorice card stock. Then I popped up another panel of Primitive White card stock onto which I adhered a Die-namics Large Fancy Flourish cut from Jellybean Green card stock. Then I cut out three sizes of butterflies with Die-namics MPD Winged Beauties and stamped the correlating butterflies from MPD Winged Beauties in Lemon Drop ink, Orange Fizz ink, and Tangy Orange ink and popped them up on foam. I cut both of the flags from Die-namics First Place Award Ribbon, from Primitive White card stock and Black Licorice card stock and stamped the sentiment with Black Licorice ink and popped it up on foam. To finish it off, I added some enamel dots in matching colors.

I stamped another sentiment from the set on the inside.

For my second card, I started with another Primitive White card stock card base. Then I stamped a piece of Kraft card stock with another new set this month, Large Scale Backgrounds—love the big old hounds tooth image! This set is this month’s Free With $60 set.

I stamped it with Versamark then stamped the sentiment from the set with Black Licorice ink. I matted that with Black Licorice card stock and popped it up on foam on the base.

Next, I cut a Die-namics Peek-a-Boo Squared from Primitive White card stock and popped it up on foam, then cut four butterflies and stamped them with Lemon Drop ink, Orange Fizz ink, Tangy Orange ink, and Brick Red ink. I added matching hemp cord-tied buttons to each before popping them up on foam as well. Before adhering it all together, I wrapped some hemp cord around in a bow to finish it off.

For the inside, I stamped another sentiment from the set.
