Go Wild

By on August 14, 2016 in Paper Crafting

I love these stamps by WPlus9, and I was delighted to use them again for this week’s Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Let’s Go Wild.

lets-go-wild

These cute Wplus9 critters are having a wild party with cupcakes. (That’s about as wild as it gets around here, peeps!)

I used distress inks and a MFT stencil for the background. The grassy die cut from Lawn Fawn, the fence die from Pretty Pink Posh, and the hay and sentiment from the MFT The Whole Herd stamp set. The cupcakes are from the birthday set from Simon Says Stamp.

I love that these guys have lots of cupcakes at their wild party! Lol.

You brighten my cloudy days

By on August 14, 2016 in Paper Crafting

This card is inspired by the Neat & Tangled challenge: Little Tangles: Shakers/Sequins

71-Shakers.Sequins
I thought I was going to do a shaker card, but when it all started coming together, it turned into this:

you-brighten-my-cloudy-days

I used a variety of inks from Simon Says Stamp, matching sequins from  Pretty Pink Posh and the Clouds stamps are from Neat and Tangled! I have always loved those clouds and I thought they would look great in color. 🙂

I added some gray pencil beneath each cloud (to make them pop off the page) and some glitter dots with my Sakura glitter gelly roll pen. The sentiment is heat embossed with Ranger embossing powder. I framed it with a very dark grey cardstock.

Enjoy!

Shadow Stamping

By on August 13, 2016 in Paper Crafting

The final MFT Camp Create is Stunning Shadow Stamping.

This was a fun challenge…and new to me. First I stamped with Hero Arts Unicorn white pigment ink, then offset on top of that I used Hero Arts Cornflower ink. I think it looks nice on the blue cardstock.

I used a few light blue sequins and put some silver Stickles in the center of them. I also used silver Stickles on the shadow stamped dots and on the base of the flowers.

The hello die is from My Favorite Things. I used some striped paper (from my scrap stock) and popped it up with foam sheet.

To finish it off, silver glitter paper serves as the base. Enjoy!

Dry Embossed Background

By on August 12, 2016 in Paper Crafting

So I struggled with this MFT Camp Create – Divine Dry Embossing.

I don’t have many dies, but I did find one that might work…these daisies. I ran the card through my Big Shot machine multiple times with a rubber mat in order to emboss these flowers onto the shimmery yellow paper (from Bazzill).

Then I die cut the white daisy out of the same die and layered it up on the black panel. The “Thanks a bunch” sentiment came from MFT’s Cheeky Monkey set. I thought it worked perfectly on this card!

I added white dots with a gel pen and green leaves from a patterned paper (found in my scraps stash). The center of the flower is Nuvo drops…I’m beginning to like these Nuvo drops! Enjoy.

Single Layer Card with MFT

By on August 12, 2016 in Paper Crafting

Today’s MFT Camp Create Bonfire Challenge is Single Layer Savvy.

Oftentimes it requires much masking and patience to make a single layer card. I have not done many of these type of cards (yet), but this time I thought I’d jump right in!

sweet-hello-single-layer

I used my Prismacolor pencils for the coloring, and distress inks for the background sky and ground. And lots of masking!! The stamp set is My Favorite Things Forest Friends.

Hope you enjoy! Thanks for visiting. 🙂
