MFT Clean and simple genius

It’s that time of the year again. My Favorite Things are having their annual card making contest, the Superstar contest. I wasn’t entirely sure if I had the time or energy to take part this time, but after a week of back pain followed by a week with a nasty cold and cough I simply needed something to do! So here I am with my first project. Hopefully there’ll be at least one more.

White on white is quite common, but I wanted something different. So for my sympathy card I’ve gone with black on black. I think it’s the first time I make a proper black card, actually.

I’ve used the Magnolia Blossoms stamp set. This time I embossed it with clear embossing powder onto black card stock before colouring it up with my Prismacolor Pencils. A STAX stitched rectangle die cut and an essential stitched banner die for the embossed text (from the same set as the flowers, the card kit version), both added with foam tape, gave the card a bit more interest and dimension.

Party Animals

Time for a colourful and fun card! I’ve used three of the party selfie stamps from MFT Stamps and coloured them up in matching colours. The card base is also from MFT Stamps onto which I’ve stamped various sentiments and some confetti. The lion is added on with foam tape and I’ve coloured up chipboard numbers to match.

I’ve entered this card into the following challenge:

Simon Says Monday Challenge: Stamp It

Have a gorilla good time

When I saw this week’s MFT Sketch challenge image I had an idea right away. 15 minutes later my card was done! I used a stamp I’d recently coloured up, matched it with two different shades of brown card stock and matching ink. All these items are from My Favorite Things. I simple Norwegian sentiment finished off the card.

Birthday penguin

I have another fun card to share today. I’ve used a background stamp from Simon Says Stamp together with a Pinkfresh stencil and some Distress Oxide inks to create the background. Both the penguin stamp and the die cut border are from MFT Stamps and the sentiment is from Avery Elle. To finish it all off I used some Altenew enamel dots.
