Hello, there and welcome to Day Five of MFT’s March Release Countdown! I can’t even tell you how excited I am about this release. I know I say this every month, but it just keeps getting better and better! Today we’re previewing Blueprints 23 Die-namics, LJD Circle Scribble Flowers Die-namics, LJD Circle Scribble Flowers Stamp Set, LJD Scribbles Die-namics, and Circle Grid Stencil. Also releasing this month are five more colors: Blue Breeze, Tickled Pink, Field Day, Cranberry Cocktail, and After Midnight—card stock, dye ink/refills, and hybrid ink/refills.

I have two cards for you today using several of these products. My first card starts with a Grout Gray card stock base. Then, on a Sweet Tooth card stock panel, I stamped the flower, stem, and leaf scribbles with Black Licorice hybrid ink and stamped the flowers with Tickled Pink hybrid ink, Yellow Chiffon hybrid ink, Blue Breeze hybrid ink, and Field Day hybrid ink. I popped that up on foam mounting tape on the base and added a matching enamel dot to each flower. The sentiment, from another new set this month, Totally Happy, was stamped on Black Licorice card stock with Sweet Tooth pigment ink, heat embossed with clear detail embossing powder, and popped up on foam.

Another sentiment from Totally Happy was stamped on the INSIDE with Black Licorice hybrid ink.

My second card uses the flowers as a background.

I have a video showing how I created this background and the card. You can view it HERE in HD on my YouTube channel or click on the button below.




I’ll also give you a quick run down of what I did here. I stamped the three flower sizes randomly With Versamark all over the front of a piece of water color paper, then heat embossed with white embossing powder. Using a water brush, I colored the flowers with Blue Breeze dye ink, Tickled Pink dye ink, and Lemon Chiffon dye ink, then adhered one each of LJD Scribbles Die-namics cut from Sweet Tooth card stock. The sentiment, another one from Totally Happy, was stamped on Black Licorice card stock with Sweet Tooth pigment ink, heat embossed with clear detail embossing powder, and popped up on foam. I finished off with some clear sequins, adhered with a Quickie Glue Pen

Yet another sentiment from Totally Happy was stamped on the INSIDE with Black Licorice hybrid ink.

  7. Like the matching enamel dots in that first card, and the second one, I liked how you used a die cut of the scribble for only a few of the flowers. Great looking cards, B.
