My Favorite Things - June Mid-Month Release - TODAY'S THE DAY!

Hello again!

The day has finally arrived that all of the beautiful red rubber stamps that the design team has been sharing with you are available for purchase! But before you go shopping, I'd love to share one more project with you, this one featuring the Fanciful Roses Background Stamp.

The Fanciful Roses Background Stamp is a gorgeous design that I decided to stamp onto watercolor paper using Sweet Tooth Pigment Ink, heat emboss in white, and then use my new Karin Pro Markers and a water brush to watercolor one of the focal rose images. I used the A2 Rectangle Frames to create a bit of an off-centered spotlight, and I adhered the panels to an A2 vertical top folding Limelight card base. I stamped a sentiment from the More Essential Sentiments Stamp Set onto some Black Licorice card stock using Sweet Tooth Pigment Ink, and I die cut it using the Skinny Strips Die-Namics. I've listed and linked all of the MFT Products that I used below.

And while you're there, be sure and leave some love along the way for your chance to win one of TWO $100 shopping sprees to the MFT Online Boutique! It's a random draw, but you can't win if you don't comment on the design team blogs!

My Favorite Things - March Birthday Project Challenge!

Hello friends!

I'm so excited to be popping in today to share the design that I created for this month's Birthday Project Challenge! And this month's challenge was really fun and provided me with an opportunity to play with a previously released stamp set that I hadn't had a chance to use yet! And I had so much fun playing with it!

I used the gorgeous Rose Garden Stamp Set to stamp out the largest image from the set using Sweet Tooth Pigment Ink, and then I heat embossed it with white embossing powder. I stamped it somewhat off the edge of the Razzle Berry card base.  Then I stamped the image again onto a white panel using Black Licorice Hybrid Ink, and I die cut a portion of that out using the Tall Snow Globe Die-Namics (I love using holiday product for non-holiday purposes!), knowing that I wanted the design on the tag to align with the image on the card base.  I die cut out another tag from vellum and I adhered the two tags together with a foam square placed on the single rose image. I stamped the single rose image from the Rose Garden Stamp Set, colored it with my Copics, and die cut it using the coordinating die.  I aligned it onto the vellum and adhered it in place with a foam square.  I used the You Impress Me Hot Foil Die to emboss and transfer some heat transfer foil to a Smooth White panel.  I used the All About You Die-Namics to cut that word out!  I stamped a sentiment from the All About You Stamp Set using Sweet Tooth Pigment Ink onto Black Licorice Card Stock and then heat embossed it with white embossing powder and then I die cut it using the Skinny Strips Die-Namics.  I adhered both the foiled word and the sentiment strip with foam squares, and adhered some enamel dots for embellishment and balance.  I've listed and linked all of the MFT products below.
