My Favorite Things, Sketch #346

Love this week's sketch challenge. I started with an idea for a Halloween card, but it didn't turn out that way. I'll see how the next one goes. LOL I still like this one though. I challenged myself to mask the whole scene without using die cuts or foam tape. Totally flat card! Go me. :)

BB Party Like a Pirate stamp set. Had a tiny accident with one of my copics that decided to leak at the very last second and mess up my treasure chest. I think I did pretty well with the colorless blender cleaning it up. Could you tell if I hadn't mentioned it??

Day 2, Magnificent Masking

We're back at Camp Create for Day 2 where we are creating with masking techniques. For today's masking challenge, I used a seashell scallop stencil and masked off a border in three blended colors. I used those same colors as the theme throughout my card, including the sweet little mermaid from the Mermazing stamp set by My Favorite Things.  See product list below.

I love her. :)

Welcome crafty friends. Today is Day 1 of My Favorite Things Session 2, Camp Create. Our project for today is Inlaid Die Cutting. Fun technique, and great for cards you may want to mail as there is no dimension, it all lays flat, but still has eye-catching texture.

Super simple, hope you'll try it if this is a new technique to you. Thanks for coming by!

Cutest whale ever, by Peachy Keen Stamps

Come on. Can you even stand the cuteness?? Kathy, Peachy Queen, has done it again. This whale is the cutest in his sailor hat (which is a separate stamp, so he doesn't have to wear it if you don't want him to). I made this one for my mom who is recovering from surgery. I think she'll like him. :)

Here he is on his slider - love these interactive gadgets! - playing in the ocean. I made my ocean scene using several stamp sets and distress inks on watercolor paper .

See product list below for links to the stamp sets I used for this card.

Parents-to-be card with MFT

We have happy news in the family as one of our nieces is expecting baby number two! Coincidentally, he/she is due on big brother, Charlie's 2nd birthday, so it's going to be exciting watching the countdown to see how close the new baby's arrival will be. :)

Thus, the reason for this sweet baby card featuring the My Favorite Things newest release Happy Hippos (love love looooove!) and the Adorable Elephants. I just felt these two had to meet as they are both cute as can be! I made this one a slider card using the MFT Channel Slider Builder die set. The interactive labels stamp set is perfect for this type of card (PULL) with 'pull', 'shake', 'slide', 'press', and several other words for creating cards that invite the recipient to play!

The baby chicks are also part of the new Happy Hippos set. Super cute!

MFT Color Challenge #73

Another mermaid shaker card, I hope you're not tired of them. ;) She's so adorable, I don't know how you could be. LOL I used the Ocean Fun set to create the shaker shapes, and used the stitched square peek-a-boo window and square shaker pouch for the shaker.

Love the jellyfish from the Ocean Fun set. The fish are also from that set.

I used stickles on the mermaid tail and starfish in her hair. Looks much more mer-mazing in person, of course. Foam tape behind the mermaid as she perches on her rock, and sequins for added pizazz.
