MFT NOVEMBER RELEASE - COUNTDOWN DAY 4

Something a little different from me today:

I started with a top folding A2 card made from After Midnight cardstock which I stamped with small snowflakes from You Make My Heart Melt and Versamark ink.

The main panel was cut from Silver Sparkle card with the new Snowflake Window die.  In fact I cut it out three times, with the second two layers being Black Licorice.  The three layers were glued together and helped make the the sparkly snowflakes more prominent.

To make it stand out further, I cut two mounts, from Black Licorice and After Midnight cardstock using stitched and plain die-namics rectangular dies.

Hope you like it, until next time

Happy Colouring

MFT NOVEMBER RELEASE - COUNTDOWN DAY 5

Woo hoo, it's that time again when I start to share some of the new stamps and dies that will be coming soon to My Favorite Things

This adorable little owl is from the new Stacey Yacula stamp set - Warm and Feathered Hugs.

I cut a panel from Copic suitable card with a Stitched Hexagon Stax on which I then stamped the owl and tree with Cement Grey Hybrid ink. The image was coloured with Copic Markers.

COPIC MARKERS:

Background: B000, W1, W2, BG0000, BG70, N0, N2, N4, E30

Sled: E30, E31, E34, W2, B00

Owl: YR30, E40, E41, E70, E71, E74, E77, Y35, YR24, W8

Scarf: YG61, YG63, YG67, W2, W4, Y35

A little extra texture was created by adding a small amount of doodling with a white gel pen.

The panel was adhered to a top folding card I cut from Smooth White card using the largest Stitched Hexagon die.

I will be back tomorrow with another card.

Happy Colouring

MFT COLOUR CHALLENGE #105

It's time for another Colour Challenge over on the MFT Challenge Blog

No actual colouring this time, instead I opted to cut strips of card in the colours listed above and adhered them to some parcel tape to create a new stripey sheet of cardstock.  I then cut this out with a Stitched Square Stax die.

A mount, die cut from Milk Chocolate card framed the panel, which was then adhered to a top folding card that I had cut from the largest Inside & Out Stitched Square die.

The Hello sentiment was cut four times, using the above colours and layered, slightly off centre to give a shadow effect and allow all four colours to show.  I then painted Nuvo Aqua Shimmer on to the top Natural layer and once dry I applied some Nuvo Crystal Glaze.

A few sequins finished it off!

Why not try this yourself, it's a great way of using those scraps of card you have been squirrelling.

One lucky entrant in this weeks challenge will win a $50 MFT Store Voucher, it could be you!

Until next time

Happy Colouring
