Hi Friends!
I have been a fan of MFT since I was a baby card maker...all their images are completely adorable, so fun to colour up and the quality of all their products are second to none. When I had the opportunity to be a guest designer for this month's release I said yes instantly! It was like Christmas Day when my package arrived from them and I got to see all the goodies first hand.
I had so much fun creating with this release that I made four fun projects to share with you.
MICE DAY TO CELEBRATE
My first project features the "Mice Day To Celebrate" stamp set. I coloured up the images with Copic markers and created a cute scene card using a variety of images from this amazing set.
FEEL BETTER
Next I decided to create a clean and simple "get well" card using the Stacey Yacula stamp set, "Feel Better". I have been such a fan of Stacey Yacula's art for ages and this was my first time colouring up some of her images and it certainly wont be my last time.
SWEET CELEBRATION
For my third card, I instantly saw this simple scene card in my head when I looked at the "Sweet Celebration" stamp set. I quickly coloured up up this lovely image using my Copic markers. For the background, I created the clouds using Copics as well and feel like it perfectly finished off the scene.
BALLOON BESTIES & HAPPIEST BIRTHDAY
For my final project, I wanted to do a slime line card that showcased the "Balloon Besties" stamp set. I coloured up my favourite images from the set using Copics and then created an ink blended background using Distress Oxide inks. I was going to use one of the accompany sentiments from the set but decided to use the beautiful "Happiest Birthday" sentiment stamp and heat embossed it with gold embossing powder.
I so hope you enjoyed my card projects showcasing the February 2021 release from MFT! I also would like to give a big thank you to MFT for having me guest design this month...one thing off my bucket list.

ReplyDeleteWhat a fun set of cards! I really enjoy your framing and layering with patterned papers. I'm not really good at that, so it helps to see how other people put it all together, especially in a CAS context. I also really like how you put the Balloon Besties breaking out of the frame of the card. I think that's a really cool look.
ReplyDeleteGreat color ideas for the sets. I like the longer blended card.
ReplyDeleteI cannot pick a favorite!! The little birthday mouse is exactly how I feel about this release! Wonderful coloring and scenes!
