My Favorite Things July Release Countdown | Day 2

Hello and welcome to day 2 of the July release countdown for My Favorite Things. All this week, we're sharing cards and projects using the new products that officially releases on July 11th at 9pm EST.

For my card today I used the new Jungle Gym stamp set and the new Mini Cloud Edges Stencil to create a fun and colourful scene in the sky! :-)


This release has been all about rainbows for me and this card is no exception lol! I created the colourful rainbow cloud background by starting at the bottom of my panel with the new Mini Cloud Edges stencil and red ink and I worked my way up the panel going in rainbow order with my colours.

Once I had the background of colourful clouds created, I die cut the panel with the stitched rectangle from the Blueprints 13 die and I adhered it onto a top folding Grout Gray card base.


I stamped, coloured and die cut the awesome tree swing image from the new Jungle Gym stamp set and then I adhered to to a piece of vellum cut slightly smaller than the cloud panel before adding it to the card. I wanted to soften the clouds a bit in the background so the focal image wouldn't get lost in all that colour. ;-)

I decided to stamp the sentiment on the inside of the card since there is so much going on, on the front of the card.

Make sure to head over to the MFT Stamps blog for more ideas using the new products from the design team. See you tomorrow for more countdown fun.

Oh those clouds! Not only are the rainbow colors so lovely but "clouding" the entire background adds such a wonderful sense of loftiness to the critters on the branch. Thanks for sharing this design.
