Hello Everyone! I hope you all had a Happy World Card Making day. I spent mine working on my very first contest entry.
The card I am sharing with you today is for the Guest Designer contest at My Favorite Things (MFT) using the MFTGUESTDT1012 sketch.
About a year ago I discovered the Pure Innnocence collection of My Favorite Things stamps at my LSS. The quality of the impression was important for my coloring and the price was great. I purchased my first stamp and used my Copics to color the girl with brown skin. I loved the result and how easy I could paper pierce or color them. My crafting girlfriends liked the way I changed her ethnicity with color. I was hooked from that day forward.
This is my entry for the MFT Guest Designer Contest.
I love using this Die-Namic because it is the perfect size for all of my cards and the edges are so elegant. I paper pierced the little girl’s shirt and colored her and her pants with my Copics. I used dimensional adhesive to raise the wagon for a 3D effect. The Jillibean Soup label was just begging to be used with this stamp so I kindly obliged. Twine was my go to instead of ribbon to compliment the theme. I just had to use the blossom gem since it echoed the blossoms in her shirt and who could resist a little bling?
If have not visited MFT before, you should take a look because they sell a variety of fun products for all your crafting needs at great values.
