MFT RELEASE DAY - FEBRUARY 2018

Oh yes, it's Release Day, but before you head off to MFTstamps.com to fill your shopping baskets allow me to share my latest card from the February release.


I smiled when I saw this particular sentiment on the new Anything but Basic Birthday Wishes, a motto to live by if, like me, you have a sweet tooth!

So I went through my MFT stamp collection and picked out all my favourite cake images along with the new ones from the Birthday Chicks set.  This card involved quite a bit of masking and layering but the finished composition was worth the effort.........I think you'll agree, it's cake heaven!

The images were stamped on to Copic suitable card with my go to ink, Hybrid Cement Gray and coloured, firstly with Copic Markersthen coloured pencil, for additional detail.
