Stuffed Santa, MFT's August Card Kit, is Now Available for Purchase!!

 


It's time!! It's time!!! MFT's August Card Kit, Stuffed Santa, is now available for purchase in the MFT Online Boutique!! Be sure to stop by the MFT Blog for all the details and for more inspiration from the MFT Design Team. 





If this card kit doesn't start to get you in the Christmas mood, nothing will! Stuffed Santa is an awesome kit that can be paired with products you already own to make it your own, as I show you. I wanted to have another being present, as if it were speaking the sentiment and who better than Rudolph, who would be with Santa anyway, amirite? Rudolph is from Joyous Holidays Stamp Set and Die-namics from last year and perfect for the job at hand!




 To begin, I created my background, sponging Broken China, Blueprint Sketch, Chipped Sapphire, and Black Soot Distress inks through Watercolor Wash Rectangle Stencil on Strathmore Bristol Smooth paper. Once Dry, I spattered with white craft paint for stars and set it aside. All images were stamped with Extreme Black hybrid ink on No Line Coloring card stock, cut with the coordinating Die-namics and colored with Copic markers. Except the chimney, since I wanted to extend the snow to represent the entire roof. That was done with a black Copic Multiliner pen and then fussy cut out.




Once the sky was dry I heat embossed the sentiment and adhered it to a Sweet Tooth card stock base with foam tape. The moon was cut from Sweet Tooth card stock with A2 Circle STAX and stamped with Distressed Patterns Stamp Set and Cement Gray dye ink then adhered directly. The colored images were then popped up in the scene with foam tape. I love this!




And that's it from me today! Thanks so much for stopping by, now go shop!
