Celebrate–MFT Wednesday Sketch Challenge #359

Hi, everyone, I’m back with this week’s MFT Wednesday Sketch Challenge! Are you ready? Here’s this week’s sketch. All of the details about the sketch challenge are available on the MFT Challenge & Inspiration blog as well as in the weekly newsletter. The MFT Design Team will be on hand to provide plenty of inspiration to get you started.

Goodness, this card was fun to make! I started by sponging some balloons on Sweet Tooth card stock using Big Balloons Stencil (ink colors listed below). I “tied” on some strings with a black Copic multiliner and splattered some gold Kuretake Gansai watercolors.



Then I created my shaker element using foam tape, Heat Resistant Acetate, Black Licorice card stock cut with Stitched Square Frames, and filled it with Twinkle Lights Sparkly Shaker Selection sequins, Silver Shimmer seed beads. For the horizontal element I cut Celebrate Die-namics from Gold Sparkle card stock and twice from Sweet Tooth, stacked them for strength, and adhered it to the shaker frame.

And there you have it! Remember, you can get all the details by visiting the MFT Challenge Blog. You have the chance to win a $20 in MFT voucher. One winner is chosen at random each week!

Thanks for stopping by! See you soon!
