MFT December Mid-Month Release!

Hello and welcome back. The new Good Time to Wine card kit and the Tweet Friends stamp set (and coordinating dies) are now available at MFT Stamps! I love all of these fun products and had so much fun creating my cards!

For my card today, I combined one of the adorable birds from Tweet Friends as well as a sentiment stamp, with the new Free with $60 called Mondo Cheers. I love this big script font and thought it would look cute to have one of the birds standing on top. :)

I added distress inks to a panel in rainbow colours, and then I die cut the Mondo Cheers from it. I adhered it to a white card stock panel that has some Peacock Feathers distress ink added to it, and then I added the cute bird and a few stamped music notes.

Make sure to head over to the MFT blog for the full reveal and more ideas using the new products.

Thanks so much for stopping by today.

MFT December Mid-Month Release!

You Make My Good Times Great

Hello and welcome back! Today's card features the newest Stacey Yacula stamp set from My Favorite Things called Tweet Friends. This set has some adorable bird images that I couldn't wait to add colour to. 

I decided to stamp three birds on my card, side-by-side, and colour to them with Copic markers. I love being able to step outside of the box and use fun bright colours that you wouldn't expect.

I stamped all of the birds in black ink using my Misti stamping tool so I could easily line them up and then I coloured them all in. I kept their bodies and beaks the same colour and then changed up the colours I used on their feathers and flowers.

To complete the card, I added a coordinating sparkle gem to each of the flowers, layered the stamped panel onto a Limelight card base and then I adhered it to a Summer Splash card base.

Thanks so much for stopping by today. See you tomorrow for the December mid-month release!

MFT December Card Kit Countdown | Day 2

Hello and welcome back! Today is the first day of the countdown to the new My Favorite Things December card kit called Good Time to Wine. I love the fun theme of this month's kit and can't wait to create even more with it. This new kit will be available on December 18th at 10am EST.

I created a trio of clean & simple cards using the kit and decided to just use the wine glass die without the shaker. I love that you can go more simple or go all out with different shaker elements.

To create my cards, I used card stock and the gold sparkle paper from the kit, and I also added in some vellum as well. I love the soft look of the vellum wine glass behind the gold sparkle sentiment.

I added clear sequins to each of the finished cards for added dimension and detail and also added glitter Stickles to the centers of each one for a little more sparkle and shine.

Stay tuned to the MFT YouTube channel tomorrow for a video sharing how I created this card set. :)

Make sure to head over to the MFT blog for the full kit reveal and join me back here tomorrow for more peeks. Thanks for stopping by!

MFT December Card Kit Countdown | Day 2

MFT Color Challenge 107

Hello and welcome back! Today I have a card to share for the newest MFT Color Challenge. This weeks colour combination includes some of my favourite colours to use during the holidays!

I recently created a tag for the 12 Tags of Christmas that featured a beautiful aqua poinsettia and I decided to use the same flower design on my card today with a couple of small changes.

I die cut and coloured the poinsettia with aqua and green markers and on this, one I coloured the center piece red rather than pink. I then layered everything together and added white paint on top for snow.  I finished the flower with a red sparkle gem and I adhered it to a white card stock panel that was layered onto Candy Land striped paper that perfectly matches this week's colour combination.

I added the finished panel to a red card base, stamped the sentiment in black in and added some clear droplets to the design to look lie drops of water.

Thanks so much for joining me today! Make sure to head over to the Challenge blog to see more card ideas using this week's colours and to enter your own for a chance to win.

MFT December Release | New Product Launch

Hello and welcome to the December Release New Product Launch! All of the new products we've been sharing for the past five days are available NOW at My Favorite Things!

For my card today I used the new Forever and Owlways stamp set to create a clean and simple card with bright colours.

I created a circle mask with masking paper, and then I added pink and purple distress inks to the center with an ink blending tool. I then stamped, coloured and die cut my images and added them over the circle with both regular adhesive and foam adhesive.

I added the sentiment stamped onto a sentiment strip, and then I completed the card with some aqua enamel hearts and a Blu Raspberry card base.

My Favorite Things December Release Countdown | Day 1

Hello and welcome to day 1 of the My Favorite Things December Release Countdown. For the next five days, we'll be sharing cards and projects featuring all of the new products coming out on December 11 at 10am EST.

For my card today I used the Hello, Beautiful stamp set and Essential Slanted Sentiment Strips Die-namics, along with the new Brilliant Blooms stamp set to create a simple, but colourful floral design.

I stamped out two of the same flower image along with two of the leaf designs and coloured them all in with Copic markers. Pink, aqua and green is a favourite colour combination of mine, so I love being able to combine them on a card design.

Once I had them stamped and coloured I die cut them with the coordinating dies and adhered them to my card front. I then stamped the sentiment onto the sentiment strip and added it over the top with foam adhesive for some added dimension.

I finished the card by adding the finished panel to a Limelight card base and then I added some clear sequins with Stardust Stickles in the centers.

Thanks so much for joining me for Day 1 of the December release countdown. Make sure to head over to the MFT blog for a closer look at the new products and more ideas using them.

Hello and welcome to day 2 of the My Favorite Things December Release Countdown. For the next five days, we'll be sharing cards and projects featuring all of the new products coming out on December 11 at 10am EST.

For my card today I used this new Free with $60 called Best Wishes and paired it with one of the sentiments from the Hello, Beautiful stamp set to create a greeting over a colourful embossed background.

To create the embossed background I used my favourite background stamp called Garden Flourish and stamped it onto a panel with Versamark ink. I then heat embossed it with white embossing powder and then added Distress ink on top.

I finished by adding the finished panel to a Limelight card base.

For my card today I used the newest Pure Innocence stamp set called Butterfly Kisses to create an interactive spinner card.

My Favorite Things December Release Countdown | Day 4

Hello and welcome to day 4 of the My Favorite Things December Release Countdown. For the next five days, we'll be sharing cards and projects featuring all of the new products coming out on December 11th at 10am EST.

For my card today I used the new Birdie Brown stamp set Friends at First Sip along with the Boutique Die-namics to create a cute little coffee shop scene.

I first created the coffee shop by die-cutting all of the pieces and then I coloured them with Copic markers and adhered them all together. I stamped the sentiment in two parts on the window and then I added the dog and cut off the bottom of him to make it look like her was peeking out from inside the coffee shop.

I coloured the girl second and added some fun rainbow colours to her striped dress and then I assembled the scene onto the card stock panel. I love how these products work so well together.

My Favorite Things December Release Countdown | Day 4

My Favorite Things December Release Countdown | Day 5

Hello and welcome to day 5 of the My Favorite Things December Release Countdown. For the next five days, we'll be sharing cards and projects featuring all of the new products coming out on December 11th at 10am EST.

For my card today I used the new Bold Beautiful Die-namics - I love this die and have so many ideas for using it! I decided to keep it simple today and use just the die cut portion that I cut from a panel of rainbow card stock.

To create the rainbow colours, I first added Distress inks to my panel and then I die cut the word from it. I carefully removed the framed word portion and I adhered it to a white card stock panel that measures 4" x 5 1/4". 

I stamped a secondary from the Hello, Beautiful stamp set onto black card stock and heat embossed it with white embossing powder. I then adhered it directly over the die cut word.

I adhered the finished panel to a Limelight card base and added a few clear droplets to complete the design.

Thanks so much for joining me for Day 5 of the December release countdown. Make sure to head over to the MFT blog for a closer look at the new products and more ideas using them.
