I have a couple of cards for you today using many of the products being previewed. My first card started with a Sweet Tooth card stock base, then I cut out a LJD Peek-a-Boo Wonky Windows Die-namics and popped it up on some paper I created. For that, I stamped Winter Waves Background on Ranger watercolor paper and heat embossed with white detail embossing powder, then sponged a couple of new colors on using emboss resist technique: Blue Yonder dye ink and Periwinkle dye ink. I flicked some clean water on it, trimmed it down, and covered my wonky window opening with it, then popped it up on the card front with foam mounting tape.

Next I cut the mittens from Blue Yonder card stock with Warm & Fuzzy Die-namics, stamped the pattern from Winter Warmth with Versamark and heat embossed with white detail embossing powder. I strung them together with some twine and popped them up on foam on top of the sentiment strip. The sentiment is from BB Toasty Greetings and was also heat embossed on Blueprints 26 Die-namics cut from Cement Gray card stock. I finished off with some silver glitter enamel dots.

My second card uses the BB Merry Christmoose stamp set.

I created a little scene with some masking magic, stamped with Black Licorice hybrid ink on Ranger watercolor paper, then colored the images with Zig Clean Color Brush Markers. When that was done I went back and added my background wash using Blue Yonder dye ink and Cement Gray dye ink.

I tied some hemp baker’s twine around, popped it up on a Kraft card stock base, and finished off with some clear Pretty Pink Posh sequins. This card is also for this week’s Crazy 4 Challenges.

And that’s it for today! Thanks so much for stopping by—hope to see you back tomorrow for more MFT November Release Countdown projects!

I have two very different cards for you today, both of which were super fun to make. My first one uses BB Toasty Greetings and BB Toasty Greetings Die-namics, along with several of the new inks.
I started with a Stone Gray card stock base, then on some Ranger watercolor paper, I created a background wash using, top to bottom, Blue Yonder dye ink, Cactus dye ink, and Cement Gray dye ink, then stamped the sentiment, from BB Toasty Greetings, with Black Licorice hybrid ink.

Next I cut and stamped the images from BB Toasty Greetings and BB Toasty Greetings Die-namics, also with Black Licorice hybrid ink and colored them with Copic markers, then popped them up on foam mounting tape. To finish off, I added some clear Pretty Pink Posh sequins.

My second card uses Get Toasty and Toasted Marshmallows Die-namics to create a fun scene.

This card started with a Kraft card stock base, then I built my scene on Blueberry card stock. First I stamped the sentiment from Get Toasty with Versamark and heat embossed with white detail embossing powder. Then I added Tall Grassy Edge Die-namics cut from the new Cactus card stock. Using Toasted Marshmallows Die-namics, I made my flames from Daffodil card stock and Orange Zest card stock, sponging the edges for some dimension.

The sticks were cut from some paper in my stash, Kraft card stock stamped with Wood Plank Background and Chocolate Brown dye ink, and the marshmallows were cut from Ranger watercolor paper and colored with Tangy Orange dye ink and Chocolate Brown dye ink using some smooshing. To finish off I added some stars in the sky cut with Blueprints 24 Die-namics.

And that’s it for today! Thanks so much for stopping by—see you back tomorrow for Day Four of MFT’s November Release Countdown!
