Your Next Stamp Sketch and Color Challenge #88!

4:36 PM 4 Comments

Hello! I wanted to share the card I made for the current Your Next Stamp Sketch and Color Challenge #88! I pulled out one of my older YNS stamps called Total Sweetness and I noticed that it is currently on sale! Such an adorable image and who wouldn't want an ice cream sundae that big LOL!  

I also used the YNS Mini Ink Splatter stamp for the splatter in the corner and some YNS Gumdrops to finish it off. I used both the sketch and the colors for my card:




For the sentiment I used the Lawn Fawn You're Sweet Line Border Die and for the frame I used a MFT Stitched Scallop Rectangle Frames Die-namics

That's it for me! Enjoy the rest of your Sunday!

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge-Anything Goes!

9:56 AM 1 Comments

Hello! I just finished this card and it is just perfect for this week's Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge which is Anything Goes AND it uses the new My Favorite Things Cross Stitch Rectangle Die-namics!

So cross stitching was one of the first crafts I ever did. I love it but I wasn't sure how I liked it on a card. After looking around the web and finding some smaller cross stitch patterns, I was like ok, this could be pretty cool:) I came across this flower image and thought it was so pretty! I didn't even have the color list so I just made up my own lol. I really love how it came out! I used a sentiment from the Taylored Expressions Simply Stamped Zinnias set. Here's a picture of the first cross stitch I completed about 20 years ago!

My Favorite Things Wednesday Sketch Challenge #380!

Hello! I was able to play along with the new MFTWSC380 today: 



I've been anxious to color up this cutie from the new Rain or Shine stamp set:) I knew I wanted to incorporate a rainbow, so I thought having that peek from behind the circle window would be perfect! 

I used the Taylored Expressions Rainbow Cutting Plate to cut my rainbow and then colored it with different shades of Distress Oxide Ink. I will leave the colors in the supply list below. I wanted a smaller sentiment and this one from the retired TE set Certified Mail Art was perfect. I adhered that behind my circle and then added my acetate window behind it so I could make a shaker card:

My Favorite Things-Puddle Jumper!

4:42 PM 1 Comments

So I made it back up to the MFT Boutique yesterday and picked up this cutie!!! I just LOVE this sweet image from Puddle Jumper and I had to get the Rain or Shine set too, mostly because of the adorable little ducks!!!

To create my scene I started by using the MFT Raindrops Stencil and some Tumbled Glass Distress Ink. I then added the clouds cut with a Taylored Expressions Build a Scene Rolling Clouds Die. I stamped my sentiment from Rain or Shine directly onto the clouds using my Mini Misti Tool. The sweet images were stamped with TE Oreo Ink and colored with Copic Markers. I stamped the boy twice so I could paper piece the umbrella and then cut out the colored image on the lines using my ScanNCut 2 to layer over the paper piece image. I framed my scene using a Stitched Rectangle Scallop Frames Die-namics.


That's it for me today! Thanks for stopping by and have a great night!
