Roar! - SSSC #247

SSSS247_2014nov30

Hey, everyone, it’s time for another Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge! I love this week’s sketch! That wonky panel just sings to me :)

SSSS247
I started with a Sweet Tooth card stock base then I cut the soon-to-be-released Stitched Fishtail Flags STAX Die-namics from Safety Orange card stock and stamped the sentiment, from MSTN Wild Things, with Black Licorice hybrid ink, then adhered it to my card base. I added the next element, the straight panel, cut from Black Licorice card stock, and popped up the wonky panel, cut from Berrylicious card stock. I stamped the lion from MSTN Wild Things on X-Press It Blending Card with Black Licorice hybrid ink and colored it with Copic markers, then popped it up, as well. I added some Wild Greenery Die-namics, cut from the new Limelight card stock and Jellybean Green card stock and finished off with some gold and silver sequins.

Another sentiment and another lion were stamped on the inside.

Today’s card uses MSTN Wild Things. I started with a Grout Gray card stock base. On a piece of X-Press It Blending Card I stamped and masked two images from the set with Black Licorice hybrid ink and colored them with Copic markers. I matted it with the new Tropical Teal card stock and popped it up on foam. The sentiment was stamped with Black Licorice hybrid ink and the sun, made from two die in the new Blueprints 21 Die-namics and cut from Banana Split card stock and Lemon Drop card stock, was also popped up on foam.

Another sentiment from the set was stamped on the inside.

MFT Release Countdown, Day Four

releasecountdownday4_2014nov28

Hey, everyone, I’m back today with a couple more cards for MFT’s December Release Countdown. Release is on Tuesday, December 2nd, at 10pm. Be sure to check out the MFT Blog for all the details. Today we’re previewing Go with It Stamp Set, Go with It Die-namics, Pierced Star STAX Die-namics, PI Wild for You Stamp Set, Wild for You Die-namics, Giraffe Background, and Giraffe Stencil.

 

NewReleaseCountdown_Day4
My first card is using another adorable Pure Innocence set being released this month: Wild for You. I started with a Sweet Tooth card stock base, then stamped up more Sweet Tooth card stock with Kraft dye ink and the new Giraffe Background, matted it with Black Licorice card stock and popped it up on foam on the base. Next I added a bunch of Wild Greenery Die-namics, cut from Limelight card stock and Jellybean Green card stock, hopefully to resemble a jungle canopy. The sentiment was stamped on Black Licorice card stock (obviously my new FAVE way to stamp a sentiment, LOL!) with Sweet Tooth pigment ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder, then adhered to the card. I cut Wild For You Die-namics from X-Press It Blending Card, stamped it with the image using Black Licorice hybrid ink, colored it with Copic markers, and popped it up on foam.

Another sentiment from PI Wild for You was stamped on the inside.

My second card is using a groovy new set, Go With It and Go With It Die-namics.

C4C264_2014nov29

I started with a 4 1/4” square Sweet Tooth card stock card base. On another piece of Sweet Tooth card stock I stamped the different arrows from the set in all SIX of the new colors being released this month: Peach Bellini dye ink, Persimmon dye ink, Blueberry dye ink, Wild Wisteria dye ink, Limelight dye ink, and Tropical Teal dye ink. I LOVE all these new colors and so will you!!!

OK, so I popped that up on foam and cut some Black Licorice card stock with another new product this month: Stitched Fishtail Flags STAX Die-namics. Been wanting these!! I stamped the sentiment from Go With It with Sweet Tooth pigment ink, heat embossed with white embossing powder, and popped that up as well. I cut one of the arrows from Go With It Die-namics from silver glitter paper and popped that up on the sentiment element. This card is also for this week’s Crazy 4 Challenges challenge.

A sentiment from DC Life’s Direction was stamped on the inside.
