MFT Camp Create -Divine Dry Embossing and Spectacular Shakers

Happy Wednesday!!

Today I am back again with some more for My Favorite Thing's "Camp Create."

I have been attempting to do these challenges-some are more successful then others. I created a galaxy background for the first challenge-was going to throw it out and then my daughter told me she liked it. Have yet to figure out how to make a card out of it, though.

I did create a card for Day 3's "Spectacular Shaker" challenge.

I am going to be honest-I HATE making shaker cards. No matter what I do, I never like it. I used the technique from the video with the foam and could not get it to line up properly. Couldn't line up the foam right in the middle and the sides fit with the card stock when I originally measured it but not when I put it together.

I used a retired MFT die "Rock and Roll" for the guitar and star die cut, as well as "Blue Prints #13" for the stitched rectangle. The sentiment is from a Simon Says Stamp" retired stamps set.

Supplies:

Paper-Neenah Solar White 110 lb white paper, Gray Bazzill, "Papaya" card stock, "Kraft" card stock, Hero Arts Acetate

Stamps-Simon Says Stamp!

Other-Sizzix Big Shot, Doodlebug Design Sequins, Memento Tuxedo Black Ink, Spiced Marmalade Distress Stain, Heidi Swapp Gold Lame Color Shine, Persimmon Distress Stain, Fun Foam

I created a card for the "Camp Create" bonus round "Divine Dry Embossing."

This card I actually LIKE!!! I embossed the background with MFT's "Die-namics Hugs & Kisses" Cover Up die.

I then die cut it with MFT's "Blue Prints #13." I used a sheep from "Ewe are the Best" stamp set that I had colored in with Copic Markers.

The sentiment is from MFT's "LJD Celebrate With Cake" stamp set. I then added some die cut clouds with a sun peeking out.

I added a bit of Clear Spectrum Sparkle marker on some elements from the card as a finishing touch.

Well that is all from me today. I hope you have a FABULOUS day. Thank you for stopping by!!

Monday and a card for some Challenges

Hello everyone!! I hope your Monday is going well. I wanted it to snow some more so we could have a three day weekend but the snow gods did not cooperate!! No, I am fine with it. Just have a lot to do. Would like a snow day more at the end of the week but it is supposed to get into the 40's!

Today I am showcasing a card that I created using Sunny Studio "Mug Hugs" stamp and die set. I bought this BEFORE Christmas hoping to use it but never did. This is not a Christmas card but more of a "friend" card.

I used the Fab Friday #103 Sketch as my inspiration, though I did place the sentiment banner at the top right of the image rather then the bottom left.

I started by stamping the to go cup and one of the hot chocolate cups from "Mug Hugs" onto a white panel that I had die cut with a Mama Elephant die from "Peek a Frame."

I layered the frame over three pieces of patterned paper from my stash that had pink, green and black in them so I could play with this week's "Color Throwdown" Challenge #424.

I then layered a die cut cup of cocoa that I had stamped onto patterned paper and cut out. I adhered a pink candy cane, some marshmallows and at heart over the cup.

My last step was to stamp the sentiment onto a green banner and adhere it to the card using foam adhesive.

This card was so fun to make and will be using this set again in the near future as I stamped and colored a TON of cute images so they would be ready to make into a card.

I am also entering this card into the Simon Says Stamps "Wednesday Challenge" Blog for "New Something." My stamp set was brand new, never been used before!!

I thank you for taking the time to stop by today!! Have a fabulous Monday!!
