My Favorite Things–WSC346!

Hola friends!

Happy Wednesday!!  If it’s Wednesday, it must mean that it’s time for a new Wednesday Sketch Challenge over at the MFT Challenge Blog!  Today’s sketch is a good one – lots of versatility!

And here’s my interpretation of the sketch:

Okay, so I was still playing with my masking stuff for my Camp Create project (have you joined in on all the fun of Camp Create Session Two? You can find all of the deets HERE!), and felt inspired by the sketch to create another flamingo card using the Flamazing Stamp Set.  Ohhhh how I love those delicious flamingos!  And, of course, I had to flip the sketch to suit my purposes – because I’m a rule breaker like that.  LOL  Here’s how I created my project:

1. Trim a 4.25” x 11” card base from Smooth White Card Stock. Score at 5.5”, fold in half and perfect the crease with a Teflon Bone Folder.
2. Trim a 4.25” x 5.5” panel of Smooth White Card Stock.  Mask off the bottom of the panel with some post-it tape.  Blend some Tumbled Glass and Mermaid Lagoon Distress Inks with a Mini Ink Blending Tool, to create an ombre water line. Carefully remove the post-it tape, place another piece of post-it tape over the top of the previously inked area.  Blend some Mustard Seed and Picked Raspberry Distress Inks to create the ombre sunset. Remove the post-it tape.
3. Add stitched detail to the outside of the image panel by die cutting the stitched rectangle from the Blueprints 24 Die-Namics.
4. Stamp the sentiment from the Tickled Pink Stamp Set using Black Licorice Dye Ink.
5. Stamp the flamingo image from the Flamazing Stamp Set onto some Smooth White Card Stock using Bubblegum Dye, Cotton Candy Dye, Insulation Pink Dye, and Black Licorice Dye Ink. Die cut the image using the coordinating Flamazing Die-Namics.
6. Die cut a circle frame using the Single Stitch Line Circle Frames Die-Namics from Smooth White Card Stock.  Adhere it to the image panel using foam tape.
7. Adhere the flamingo to the image panel using foam squares.
8. Adhere some Sparkling Clear Sequins to the image panel using Multi Medium Matte adhesive.
9. Adhere the image panel to the card base using foam squares.

That’s it for me today, friends!  I’m spending the day lunching and wine tasting with my girlies today – fun times!  I hope you have some fun plans in store for your day – thanks for spending part of it here with me!  I’ll be back again tomorrow with another crafty project.  I hope  you’ll come back again, soon!
