MFT Camp Create Day 1

I saw this you-tube video online and just couldn't wait to participate in the challenge. I have a new minc mini and have been waiting for the perfect time to use it. Here is the card I created for the challenge.

The background is embossed using an embossing folder I got from Hobby Lobby then inked with distress inks. I then used the BB Recipe for Happiness stamp set and colored him with copic markers. I then created the foiled "happy" using my mini minc machine and red deco foil. The birthday is stamped and embossed using detail white embossing powder on a piece of black card stock. The card stock is cut into a flag shape and glued to the front of the card. 

I hope you all have a wonderful day.

This Week's MFT Color Challenge

This week I thought it would be fun to play along with MFT's color challenge.

I just received my new MFT goodies and could not wait to try out the new MFT pop-up element wide die-namics. I also had the wonderful Happy Mail stamp set and Incoming Mail stamp set from Mama Elephant.

I water colored the background using four different distress inks then embossed the Happy Mail sentiment with silver embossing powder. The card front panel was cut out using the Blueprints 1 and Blueprints 2 die-namics from My Favorite Things. I then added some of the envelopes from the incoming mail set to tie it in with the inside of the card. 

The background was created again using some distress inks. I used the pop-up element dies to pop-out the pandas. The pandas and mail box are from the Mama Elephant incoming mail set. The pandas were colored with my new Spectrum Noir Sparkle Pens. I love these pens. So much fun. Everything is supper sparkly. 

July 8, 2016 Stamping Bella Bellarific Friday Challenge

This weeks Bellarific Friday Challenge is a MojoBella sketch.

Here is the card I made for the challenge.

I used Stamping Bella's Edna the Diva rubber stamp and colored her in with copic markers. I then applied gold wink of stella to her crown and clear wink of stella to her wings. Next, I cut out a piece of purple card stock with the Mft Inside and Out rectangular stax die-namics. I cut out a piece of pattern paper using the largest die from the Blueprints 2 Die-namics. I then adhered a piece of gold ribbon and red strip of card stock to the patterned paper. Then adhered everything together and applied to a A2 sized card front. I then stamped Edna the Diva on the inside of the card using Mft's Grapesicle Hybrid Ink. 

Stamping Bellarific Friday Challenge

I have been very bad about updating my blog lately. I have still been making cards, just not uploading to the blog for challenges. I did decide I wanted to play along with the bellarific Friday challenge this week and use paper piecing with a current Stamping Bella image. I was also making this card for my niece's Easter card this year and had already picked this image out.

MFT Sketch Challenge 242

This week I played along with MFT's sketch challenge #242. It has been a while since I have played along with these challenges, but finally had some time to do so this week.

I used a new digi stamp that I purchases from Make It Crafty, Chasing Nova. I had some difficulty coloring the hair because their is so much of it. I think it turned out okay though. Hope everyone has a great day!

Birthday Card for My Grandmother

Recently, I saw this digi stamp (Gift from Millie) on Crafty Bits you tube channel and just loved it. So I decided to create this card using that stamp for my grandmother's birthday.

I really like this stamp. She always turns out so cute!

MFT Sketch Challenge 238

I whipped a card together really quickly for the weekly sketch challenge on MFT's blog.

I used a digital stamp from Tiddly Inks and some papers fro the Taylored Expressions Summer Nights Pack.
