Hello and happy Thursday. I've been crafting this week and have several cards to share. First up is homework for my last day of MFT Summer School: White Space. I used these adorable dogs from MFT Pups & Kisses. I am also entering this card at The Card Concept #138c, Shopping Our Stash #426: KISS, and Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Use Your Favorite Tool (Copics).
My next card was inspired by the sketch at MFT Sketch Challenge #501 and the colors at Color Throwdown #605. I used another brand new to me MFT stamp set called Big Birthday Sentiments. I used one of the sentiments and also a little candle stamp from the same set. That candle stamp is the sort of extra little image I would normally never notice, but challenged myself to feature it on this card.
I am also entering this card at Seize the Birthday #196: No Topping and Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge: Happy Birthday, and Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Use Your Favorite Tool (Tim Holtz Stamping platform--there is no way I could have stamped all 64 candles without it).
Next up is a card that features some of the cute dogs from Newton's Nook Woof Pack, inspired by the sketch at Inky Paws #129. I focused in on a couple of the dogs in the pack, colored them and greyed out all the other dogs near by. I am thinking if I have time, I might want to try this again with darker colors. I am also entering this card at The Card Concept #138c and Shopping Our Stash #426: KISS.
I really liked the way this card came out the other day, so when I saw a few of the new challenges this week, I decided to use a different color paint chip and a more masculine-looking die cut sentiment.
I am entering this card at Freshly Made Sketches #447, The Male Room #141: 7th Birthday (Happy Birthday to The Male Room!!), AAA Birthday #16: Tic Tac Toe (masculine/die cut/pattern paper), Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge: Happy Birthday, and Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Use Your Favorite Tool (paint chips).
Last up is this card featuring these sweet elephants from Poppystamps. I am entering this card at Poppy Challenge #71: Heat Wave (I used warm colors for my elephant ears and a spray of water to cool them off), AAA Cards #171: Along the Edge, Shopping Our Stash #426: KISS and Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Use Your Favorite Tool (texture plates).
Thanks for Visiting
