MFT CHALLENGE

Hello, 

Here is a card I made for an MFT Challenge recently. I used Flower Flopsey for the challenge, which was to create a summery card with flowers and polka dots.

I'm not sure about the summery part, but I got the polka dots and flowers in! 

I'm starting to really love Flopsey, I feel like I need to have all of them! Ah - another stamp collection to start! :) 

Have a great night!

MFT Sketch

Hello! Here is a card I made for last week's MFT Sketch Challenge over on SCS. I used "How Sweet Is" for the stamp set. The DP is brand new from Stampin Up, and it's called Tall Tales. I colored in the image with Prismacolor Markers.

My Favorite Things Sketch Challenge

Here is my submission for the MFT Sketch Challenge for this week. I chose to use the "Girls Night Out" set for this layout. It's one of my favorite MFT sets. The DP is from SU (Blueberry Maine). I paper-pieced most of the main image (the wine glasses were colored). The DP on the bottom card is actually the inside of the card. 

Thanks for looking!

MFT May Ambassador Challenge

Hello all, hope you are having a great Sunday. I spent the afternoon with my family including my cute little 9-week-old nice Tavi. She was cracking smiles and adorable faces most of the afternoon. Awww!

Anyhow, I thought I would share my big project for the weekend that i have been working on, which is the May Ambassador Challenge. The challenge was to find inspiration from this abstract picture that was posted over on SCS. I loved all the bright colors so decided to try to pull those into my card. I'm really pleased with how it came out! I did most of the paper piecing late last night (er, early this morning!) and then put the rest together this morning. The card uses the MFT Set "Here's The Scoop". 

The full recipe can be found HERE in my SCS Gallery! Thanks for looking! 

Have a super night!

MFT Guest Designer Challenge

This is the first time I participated in the MFT Guest Designer Challenge on SCS. Some of my SCS buddies were chatting it up and I decided what the heck, give it a whirl. The stamps are from Ride Em Cowgirl, which is the first MFT set I bought. Just love those cute little cowgirl boots! So to make this card, I stamped the main image 3X on whisper white card stock, cut them out, and lined them up on the DSP (Retired SU) I then stamped the boots and the ground on the same line of DSP (forgive me I forgot the name of the DSP!)  and then layered those on top. I colored in the skirt with Sage Shadow WWC, and then used SU Markers for the rest. The Ribbon is Seaside Ribbon Originals (also retired SU). 

Thanks for looking! Hugs! LJ
