There is so much fun stuff this month it’s hard to know where to start, but I’ll start with this card today. I’m using Giraffing Me Crazy Stamp Set and Giraffing Me Crazy Die-namics along with Safari Tree Die-namics from this month’s release and previously release Grassy Edges Die-namics. I stamped the image with Black Licorice hybrid ink and colored it with Copic markers.
The background was sponged with some new Distress Oxide inks (all supplies listed below) splattered with water, and popped up on the Sweet Tooth card stock base. The sentiment was stamped on Black Licorice card stock with Versamark and heat embossed with white detail embossing powder.

So, you know I love a shaker card, right? The new Shaker Flower Die-namics makes it easy peasy!
I cut all the flowers elements from Ranger Watercolor Paper and colored them with Peerless Watercolors. The background was stamped with Distressed Patterns and the sentiment is from PI Beach Day.
I added some Roses All Over Pastels Paper Pack and Dots & Stripes Bright Paper Pack and filled the Circle Shaker Pouches with three shades of yellow Pretty Pink Posh sequins.
And there you have it for Day Two of MFT’s May Release Countdown! Thanks so much for stopping by—hope to see you back tomorrow for Day One!
