Happy Bird-day–MFT April Release Countdown, Day Two

Hey there! Welcome to Day Two of MFT’s April Release Countdown! It’s getting close! Two more days until the April Release goes live on April 3rd at 9pm in the MFT Online Boutique! Be sure to stop by the MFT Blog for all the details. Today we’re previewing A Tweet Hello Stamp Set, A Tweet Hello Die-namics, Birdbath Die-namics, Garden Gate Die-namics, Aim for the Clouds Stamp Set, Cloud Shaker Window & Frame Die-namics, Cloud Shaker Pouches, and Mini Raindrops Stencil.

OMG, but I love that birdbath and all the sweet birdies in A Tweet Hello Stamp Set!! Perfect for a sweet little scene. For this one I did a watercolor wash background, created some greenery by doing some watercoloring on Ranger Watercolor Paper cut with Stitched Cloud Edges Die-namics. I added a brick walkway by spreading molding paste through English Brick Wall Stencil on Gravel Gray card stock, then sponging on Brick Red dye ink once it was dry.



The bird and butterfly were stamped on No Line Coloring card stock with Extreme Black Hybrid Ink, cut out with the coordinating Die-namics, and colored with Copic markers. I stamped the sentiment on the background, added some Copic marker shading on the birdbath, cut from Cement Gray card stock, and popped them  up in the scene with foam tape. To finish off I added a sun and some clouds. Tweet, no?!

And there you have it for Day Two of MFT’s April Release Countdown! Thanks SO much for stopping by today! See you back tomorrow for the last day of Countdown!
