It's time!! MFT's December Card Kit, Wild About Rainbows, is now available for purchase in the MFT Online Boutique! Get all the details at the MFT Blog.






What a fun kit this is!! SO much scope for your imagination! For this card I again started by creating the sky, using Blue Breeze dye ink and Mini Cloud Edges Stencil.

You Make Me Happy - One Day Until MFT's Wild About Rainbows December Card Kit Release!

 


Hello! Welcome to Day One of MFT's December Card Kit, Wild About Rainbows, Release Countdown! The kit is available tomorrow, December 15th, at 10am Eastern so set your clocks! And don't forget to stop by the MFT Blog for all the details!





I love the way Color Blast Die-namics seems like the rainbow's end ifs right in front of you and that's what drove my design plan. To begin, I sponged the sky with Blue Breeze dye ink and Mini Cloud Edges Stencil. Then I cut Color Blast Die-namics from Sweet Tooth card stock, colored each strip with a Copic marker, and taped the strips together on the back.




Next I added Grassy Hills Die-namics cut from Sour Apple card stock to sandwich the "end of the rainbow" and to support the Modern Trees Stamp Set and Die-namics. Foam tape was used for dimension.




To finish off, I added Happy Day Stamp Set stamped with Black Licorice dye ink and cut with Phrase Builder Die-namics and popped up on foam.




And there you have it for today's card! Thanks so much for stopping by! See you back tomorrow for MFT's November card kit release!

Look On the Bright Side - Two Days Until MFT's Wild About Rainbows December Card Kit Release!

 


Hello and welcome to Day Two of MFT's November Card Kit Countdown! Wild About Rainbows Card Kit  will be available for purchase on December 15th at 10am Eastern so make a note! And be sure to stop by the MFT Blog for all the details.





What a great sentiment for a rainbow card, right? And how awesome is this rainbow?? I decided to design from the sentiment so to begin, I created the rainbow by cutting it from Sweet Tooth card stock and coloring each segment with Copic markers--great way to save colored card stock if you're like me and insist on traditional rainbow colors, LOL! Then the strips were taped together on the back and popped up on foam on the card front.




Using the assembled rainbow as a guide, I sponged the right side with Blue Breeze dye ink and Mini Cloud Edges Stencil for the sunny side. On the left, I simply sponged with Cement Gray dye ink for the cloudy side. 





Once the rainbow was popped up on foam, I added a sun cut from Lemon Drop card stock cut with A2 Circle STAX, and Cute Cloud Outlines, Sweet Tooth card stock on the sunny side and Cement Gray card stock on the cloudy.

To finish off I added a sentiment from Good Vibes Only Stamp set, heat embossed on Black Licorice card stock cut with Skinny Strips Die-namics and added some rain drops on the left. I love how this turned out!!





And that's it from me today! Thanks so much for stopping by! See you back tomorrow for Day One of MFT's Wild About Rainbows Card Kit Release Countdown!

We Wish You a Merry Christmas - MFT Wednesday Sketch Challenge #519



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 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.




When I was looking through my stamps searching for an idea for this card I ran across We Wish You a Merry Christmas Stamp Set and realized I had never used it! It is PERFECT for this sketch so win-win!





To begin, I created a background by spattering Sweet Tooth card stock with Green Room dye ink and gold and black acrylic ink. Next I stamped the sentiment, using Green Room dye ink, heat embossing the top star with gold detail embossing powder.




Once dry, I matted it with Gold Shine card stock and adhered it to a Black Licorice card stock base with foam tape. The sentiment was heat embossed with gold detail embossing powder on Black Licorice card stock cut with Skinny Strips Die-namics and popped up on foam for the finish.

And there you have it! Now it’s YOUR turn to play! Remember, you can get all the details by visiting the MFT Blog. You have the chance to win a $50 in MFT voucher. Winners are chosen at random, so everyone has a chance!
