I started with a
Sweet Tooth card stock base, added some of the sweet Lucky Prints Paper Pack on the right side along with a narrow strip of Dots & Stripes Neutral Paper Pack. Next is more Sweet Tooth card stock with an opening cut with Inside & Out Stitched Circle STAX Die-namics. Behind the opening is some Ranger Watercolor paper colored with Peerless Watercolors, then the Sweet Tooth card stock was popped up on foam mounting tape.

My
PI Lucky Us was stamped on PI Lucky Us Die-namics, cut from Neenah Classic Crest Cover, Solar White Smooth, 110lb paper with Black Licorice hybrid ink and colored with Copic markers. I added some Crystal Effects to the horseshoe for dimension and definition. The sentiment was stamped with Versamark on a flag cut from Black Licorice card stock with Blueprints 25 Die-namics and heat embossed with white detail embossing powder. I popped it and Pi Lucky Us up on foam and finished off with some enamel dots.

And that’s it for today. Thanks so much for stopping by! I’ll be back tomorrow with the last day of MFT’s February Release Countdown! Hope to see you then!

I’m so please with the way this card turned out! I decided to create a kitchen scene and it just all came together as I envisioned it. I started with a Sweet Tooth card stock base. Next I cut some County Fair Plaid Paper Pack with Blueprints 24 Die-namics and cut the opening with Inside & Out Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-namics. Be still my heart!! I’ve been wanting some of these shapes—I love to have stitching on the inside of a frame and now it’s possible! Moving on, next I stamped up some Sweet Tooth card stock with Small Brick Background and Gravel Gray dye ink to look lik subway tiles—I have some in one of my bathrooms and was inspired but it. The floor was inspired by another bathroom that has those tiny hexagon tiles—the new Mini Hexagon Background is PERFECT for it!! I popped the plaid frame up on foam mounting tape on the backgrounds and adhered it to the card base.

Then, using BB Recipe For Happiness and BB Recipe For Happiness Die-namics, I stamped the images with Black Licorice hybrid ink, colored with Copic markers, and popped them up on foam. The rack was cut with Blueprints 16 Die-namics from Silver Shine card stock. The sentiment was stamped on Black Licorice card stock with Versamark and heat embossed with white detail embossing powder, then popped up on foam.

And there you have it for Day Four of MFT’s February Release Countdown! Thanks so much for stopping by—see you soon!
