Hello there!! It’s time, it’s time!! MFT’s December Release is now available for purchase in the MFT Online Boutique! Be sure to check by the MFT Blog for all the details and to see how you can have a chance to win free stuff!
I have a couple of cards for you using Kind Words stamp set and Kind & Kindness Die-namics. For my first card I started with some Ranger Watercolor Paper, stamped Wavy Coloring Book Background with Black Licorice hybrid ink, applied a watercolor wash with Peerless Watercolors, and adhered it to a Sweet Tooth card stock base. Next I cut more Sweet Tooth card stock with Stitched Basic Edges 2 Die-namics, stamped the sentiment from Kind Words, and popped it up on foam mounting tape.
Then I cut “Kindness” from Sweet Tooth card stock and sponged it with Lush Lagoon dye ink and cut it twice more from Black Licorice card stock and adhered them together. The black layers add some contrast and definition on the white background. To finish off I added some Sparkling Clear Mix Sequins.

More watercoloring for my second card :)
This card also starts with a Sweet Tooth card stock base. Then I applied a watercolor wash to Ranger Watercolor Paper with Peerless Watercolor. I also added some splatters with clean water and black Kuretake Gansai watercolors and popped it up on the base with foam mounting tape. I added a strip of Dots & Stripes Neutral Paper Pack and part of a sentiment from Kind Words stamped with Versamark on Black Licorice card stock and heat embossed with white detail embossing powder.
Then I added Bold Greenery Die-namics, cut from Ranger Watercolor Paper and colored with Peerless Watercolors, and Kind & Kindness Die-namics, cut from Sweet Tooth card stock and popped up on bits of foam tape.
And that’s it! I hope I’ve given you some ideas for using YOUR Kind Words stamp set and Kind & Kindness Die-namics in some fun ways. Thanks so much for stopping by…and happy shopping!!
