<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Stay tuned to the end of this post, because I’m giving away an Essentials by Ellen stamp set! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">For my first card today, I used the new Mirror Mirror stamps and dies along with the Spa Day stamps and dies to create a card that seems a little busy and wasn't the design I had originally intended, but I love how it turned out and I think it sends a great message!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsPl5WZaPiFP0JXhMOHujyLRN_4hvAHFHMpreLqFyJPM2OGnEtKRSOSRN-hGALj7vgbMhyGms_y0sgPx8hQUwjkqri6q4YnTFTHXRmOz8kj6Th7MQLOs3MzPEjNrXylItQw9I52n2vxLiu/s1600/MirrorMirror.jpg" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I stamped and diecut the mirror in the center of a white cardstock panel and then I added almost all of the sentiments from the Mirror Mirror stamp set around the mirror all over the white panel. I used foiled cardstock for the mirror and used Copic markers to colour the frame of the mirror and the lights.</span><br />
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div>
<div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I stamped the woman image from the Spa Day stamp set onto white cardstock, coloured her in with Copic markers, diecut her and then adhered her in front of the mirror.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">You can see the video sharing how I created this card below:</span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">For my second card, I used the new Make It Beautiful stamp set and coordinating dies to create a fun nail polish themed scene on my card with a really fun sentiment. ;)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6bY_G-lXSCAzRH1MWSywI1oCwZ_232fwkd32gFRbbgZt7SUIjlZvqZdFElgjKJDePInty3odrQTytAysLF5YegSjcXHb_dOI5uoSj9hVSm9EakeQ8TEFFcD3PlRRHVt1KOE9V1efy-x8f/s1600/NailedIt.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6bY_G-lXSCAzRH1MWSywI1oCwZ_232fwkd32gFRbbgZt7SUIjlZvqZdFElgjKJDePInty3odrQTytAysLF5YegSjcXHb_dOI5uoSj9hVSm9EakeQ8TEFFcD3PlRRHVt1KOE9V1efy-x8f/s1600/NailedIt.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I stamped the nail polish bottles onto white cardstock with Tuxedo Black Memento ink and then I coloured each of them in with different colours of Copic markers. Once I was done with the colouring, I added Glossy Accents to the top of each one to make them raised and shiny.</span></div>
<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I diecut the outline of the bottle into the main white cardstock panel and then I adhered the panel with foam adhesive. I added the green bottle into the diceut opening, but adhered it directly onto the card base so it would be lower then the diecut panel.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I added the red and aqua bottles to the panel, one direct to paper and one with foam adhesive, stamped the sentiment and added some clear sequins. You can see how I created the card in the video below:</span></div>

Hello! Welcome to the second day of the countdown to the newest card kit from <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/">My Favorite Things</a> called <b>Beautiful Butterflies</b>!
This month's kit is absolutely gorgeous and includes two stamps sets, a
die set, black embossing powder, a Versamark ink cube, two sheets of
translucent vellum and a beautiful assortment of cardstock.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For my card today I used the largest solid butterfly image and stamped it three times onto watercolor cardstock using Distress inks. And since Distress inks aren't really great for image stamping (they're better for techniques) I used a paintbrush with water and painted over each of them after I stamped them to even out the colour and give them a watercoloured look.</div>

Once they were dry, I stamped the black outline part of the layer using Black Licorice dye ink and then I diecut all three of them using the coordinating Die-namics die. I love the black outline against the bright pop of colour! ;)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of white cardstock and cut it into a strip. I added black and white polka dot patterned paper to the sides of a top folding card base and then I added a white cardstock panel to the middle.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I adhered the butterflies in the center of the cardstock panel and used foam adhesive under the top of the wings of the green and pink butterfly. I trimmed off the parts of the top and bottom butterfly that went off the card front.</div>

Hello! Welcome to day one of the countdown to the newest card kit from <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/">My Favorite Things</a> called <b>Beautiful Butterflies</b>! This month's kit is absolutely gorgeous and includes two stamps sets, a die set, black embossing powder, a Versamark ink cube, two sheets of translucent vellum and a beautiful assortment of cardstock.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For my card today I used the detail layer stamp of one of the butterflies (all of the butterflies have multiple stamps that layer together) and embossed 3 black butterflies onto a watercolor panel using the black embossing powder from the kit. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEji0PwNWeeLx7xG8I4WaYCZoari7EZk1oxByQ8OO1k9UBAZoyoz_TcxJnBIEKNydCqrglDK2sFWFP0pB38rwARwwO5NvNP9BRSai8JIBIOQcVrHpyMy3WiGwtaMxNDhAvn6-o6LUomCCgLS/s1600/MFTFEBkit.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEji0PwNWeeLx7xG8I4WaYCZoari7EZk1oxByQ8OO1k9UBAZoyoz_TcxJnBIEKNydCqrglDK2sFWFP0pB38rwARwwO5NvNP9BRSai8JIBIOQcVrHpyMy3WiGwtaMxNDhAvn6-o6LUomCCgLS/s1600/MFTFEBkit.jpg" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Once I had the butterflies embossed, I did a fun inky technique where I added colour over top by scribbling onto a plastic sheet with Tombow Dual Brush markers and then I added some water with the colour. I then flipped the plastic sheet over onto the embossed panel and pushed the ink onto it with my fingers. I love the random watercolor look you get every time you do this technique! ;)</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhu_KbznYKUxy069g55q9vl4lca2C4T54B6AP7QMsudnfu0lyJem3Gh_i9az0c9f7m1OwO-qQ5Fwm7d0tAPDvX1xvgIklcHn8Eqgp9gxFFE7mXWDH76OpJCVlByFZD66Nb03y0HFqtwebbK/s1600/MFTFebCardKit.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhu_KbznYKUxy069g55q9vl4lca2C4T54B6AP7QMsudnfu0lyJem3Gh_i9az0c9f7m1OwO-qQ5Fwm7d0tAPDvX1xvgIklcHn8Eqgp9gxFFE7mXWDH76OpJCVlByFZD66Nb03y0HFqtwebbK/s1600/MFTFebCardKit.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I decided to leave the front without a sentiment and instead, stamped it on the inside with black ink. I love the artistic watercolor look on the front and didn't want to cover any of it up with a sentiment strip.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You can see how I created this card in this weeks episode of MFTv on the MFT YouTube channel (linked in my blog sidebar).</div>

Hello! It's been a week since the newest release went live from <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/">MFT Stamps</a> and today the design team is revisiting all of the new products and sharing more fun ways to use them! It's so exciting to see everyone receiving their new goodies and creating! ;)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For today's card, I used the new <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/sketched-blooms-2">Sketched Blooms 2</a> to create a simple, but colourful card. I love this stamp set and the endless floral designs you can create with it!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyy6NnzqvHANpg7yqnTD9kGnIERzosffiMQxn2KchyphenhyphenFVH0GJvlKn3yONJW4mnL2zvr7JP0Ji2uI8qdMM2ezHjKJLBU_d2rUbwezpoV3GyMfIWOrel6lZ5ipy9zY3-rBPP0e6fqic2EnI-8/s1600/FebRR.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyy6NnzqvHANpg7yqnTD9kGnIERzosffiMQxn2KchyphenhyphenFVH0GJvlKn3yONJW4mnL2zvr7JP0Ji2uI8qdMM2ezHjKJLBU_d2rUbwezpoV3GyMfIWOrel6lZ5ipy9zY3-rBPP0e6fqic2EnI-8/s1600/FebRR.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I stamped all of the leaves and flowers using various colours of rich, bold inks. I love the yellow, blue, orange and greens together... they blend and overlap so nicely together. Once I had all of the flowers stamped and I was happy with the design, I used the little tiny flower stamp and added some yellow and orange flowers mixed in with the larger ones.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3tdxi8IXhPymDtW1GYbgWodm0hRIRbW4DWSVlOxb-vARJIutEjWjxl6YqwxOtTr1fnQv17O86FhndeQYuqeZPDQ3whIVZHpsMg8gkqUCZFjYiQSIbJJ2oFy765zP-WzdtGHwqB140rB8g/s1600/FebRR_2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3tdxi8IXhPymDtW1GYbgWodm0hRIRbW4DWSVlOxb-vARJIutEjWjxl6YqwxOtTr1fnQv17O86FhndeQYuqeZPDQ3whIVZHpsMg8gkqUCZFjYiQSIbJJ2oFy765zP-WzdtGHwqB140rB8g/s1600/FebRR_2.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I stamped the sentiment from the <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/lots-of-hugs">Lot's of Hugs</a> stamp set onto white cardstock, cut it into a strip and adhered it onto the stamped panel at the bottom over the flower stems. I then adhered the finished panel to a <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/heavyweight-card-stock-grout-gray">Grout Gray</a> card base.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

Hello and welcome to day 1 of the <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/">My Favorite Things</a> February release countdown. For the next 5 days, we're counting down to
the February 2017 release, sharing cards and ideas using the new products.<br />
<br />
Today's card used the new <b>Birdhouses</b> Die-namics (this months free with $60) along with the new <b>Denim</b> stamp to create a textured background.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjh-EgnoujdJfmKqMSXzFUfhEyCMMXVGnOD5WK9Q6KnqFfad7lhep_HZi8lWmRVPhyIzwUu4W4tA-lRbsxgfX5k1_b5hcDYuayxu_nV_5I1kt_oVmvwYN2of15LYR0VMCF3mIV_Iep_M_mV/s1600/Feb_Day1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjh-EgnoujdJfmKqMSXzFUfhEyCMMXVGnOD5WK9Q6KnqFfad7lhep_HZi8lWmRVPhyIzwUu4W4tA-lRbsxgfX5k1_b5hcDYuayxu_nV_5I1kt_oVmvwYN2of15LYR0VMCF3mIV_Iep_M_mV/s1600/Feb_Day1.jpg" /></a></div>
To create the background, I added ink to a white cardstock panel and then I spritzed the entire stamp with water. The more water you add, the more saturated your cardstock will become and it my blur the detail from the stamp. Because Distress ink reacts with water, the stamp design (covered with water) lifts the colour off the cardstock and leaves you with the detail of the stamp.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEho9NisHkbKImb_9TAM-BM0GZ6B2Kl2BaJQw6CCMefqFNaAGbl9yd5WhVzzZp3rni7LjGZF34rIoxG5NA8S32DB7zTHqAT_r9zEF_kZP1-oDYiqhKNgenV8UnnzqgJIB7X2zKnDWG8gmth-/s1600/Feb_Day1_Close.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEho9NisHkbKImb_9TAM-BM0GZ6B2Kl2BaJQw6CCMefqFNaAGbl9yd5WhVzzZp3rni7LjGZF34rIoxG5NA8S32DB7zTHqAT_r9zEF_kZP1-oDYiqhKNgenV8UnnzqgJIB7X2zKnDWG8gmth-/s1600/Feb_Day1_Close.jpg" /></a></div>
Once I had the background done, I diecut the little birdhouses 3 times each from white cardstock and layered them on top of one another. I then diecut them from wood paper and added that as the top layer to make them look more realistic.<br />
<br />
This is the card I created for this week's episode of MFTv so if you want to see how I created it, you can check it out on the MFT YouTube channel. ;)<br />
<br />

Hello and welcome to day 2 of the <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/">My Favorite Things</a> February release countdown. For the next 5 days, we're counting down to
the February 2017 release, sharing cards and ideas using the new products.<br />
<br />
If you are a wine lover, you are going to love all of the great products being revealed today! For my card I used the new <b>Wine Service</b> and <b>Cheers</b> Die-namics to create my scene.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgB3WpYpyQ9BLh4gKpsgVoyjvsPJMyKrgf1T_3VxM5zHWkjI1S7EQ5iHtaKCkuMR7U3JDjJ2Koy3HZfSqTNx-bsAJn60hGs8Of2HZ-kDyGkOsOh8oA4deRSSD6aXfiFoWgrDOgxyN2azkt7/s1600/Feb_Day2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgB3WpYpyQ9BLh4gKpsgVoyjvsPJMyKrgf1T_3VxM5zHWkjI1S7EQ5iHtaKCkuMR7U3JDjJ2Koy3HZfSqTNx-bsAJn60hGs8Of2HZ-kDyGkOsOh8oA4deRSSD6aXfiFoWgrDOgxyN2azkt7/s1600/Feb_Day2.jpg" /></a></div>
I die cut the wine bottle, label, cork and two glasses from white cardstock and then I masked off the areas that I didn't want to have ink. I added Aged Mahogany Distress Inks to the bottle and glasses to mimic red wine and then I added some water to distress them.<br />
<br />
I used grey ink for the label and the cork and distressed them with water as well. To create the background panel I used Peacock Feathers Distress ink and then I cut the panel out with the largest Wonky Rectangles Die-namics.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8gbk4Nto7irfz9yoG_njYvWcOLGn9wEx7ZxkpiCFWz1AP7QsNoibF_N5w3GlORs21xljehiTnLMpH0lTZi9yVAH5CYtRMyOBD6rQ8k78L7SKPF42qRllgHHWuYr5wglY5ECADGAwqIej2/s1600/Feb_Day2_2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8gbk4Nto7irfz9yoG_njYvWcOLGn9wEx7ZxkpiCFWz1AP7QsNoibF_N5w3GlORs21xljehiTnLMpH0lTZi9yVAH5CYtRMyOBD6rQ8k78L7SKPF42qRllgHHWuYr5wglY5ECADGAwqIej2/s1600/Feb_Day2_2.jpg" /></a></div>
To create the sentiment, I diecut the word <b>Cheers</b> 4 times from white cardstock and then layered them on top of one another with liquid adhesive to give it more dimension. I adhered all of diecut pieces onto the panel and then I added it to a Grout Gray card base.<br />
<br /></div>

Hello and welcome to day 3 of the <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/">My Favorite Things</a> February release countdown. For the next 5 days, we're counting down to
the February 2017 release, sharing cards and ideas using the new products.<br />
<br />
For today's card, I used the new <b>Farm Friends </b>stamp set to create a simple design with the adorable cow image and the fun sentiment that goes with him. ;) <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivGQA0Z7o_k5P07UBqTgPsPQq63E379mEIhlh3WoOETBiHAUm5wam9vpehp0BuDQqCE_qTDKPUeBe6FAP7GeB3DK6bXsseJ201rTnF93eNW6VKtVqpuKwYLB4rr51FKmqEwA52iDKbDdZ8/s1600/Feb_Day3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivGQA0Z7o_k5P07UBqTgPsPQq63E379mEIhlh3WoOETBiHAUm5wam9vpehp0BuDQqCE_qTDKPUeBe6FAP7GeB3DK6bXsseJ201rTnF93eNW6VKtVqpuKwYLB4rr51FKmqEwA52iDKbDdZ8/s1600/Feb_Day3.jpg" /></a></div>
To create my panel, I added blue and green distress inks to a white cardstock panel with an ink blending tool and then I spritzed on some water for a more textured look. This is a go-to technique on almost every card I create lately lol! ;)<br />
<br />
Once the panel was dry I trimmed it down and added it to a card base with a strip of black and white striped patterned paper and silver sparkle cardstock.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxGWIieoy96Csg0_reRoriz6Ge_h9n6VDG7Q6Nv2JJ-u8NzFl0qSvQ4a7rtxLVHL4oM8EjmLMvJh5kwG7g3kYCLcKbdqIANKqpJAATVNu_memZWxdHsMuNx4_3PugJmM1jaCO_2BrTKBA5/s1600/Feb_Day3_2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxGWIieoy96Csg0_reRoriz6Ge_h9n6VDG7Q6Nv2JJ-u8NzFl0qSvQ4a7rtxLVHL4oM8EjmLMvJh5kwG7g3kYCLcKbdqIANKqpJAATVNu_memZWxdHsMuNx4_3PugJmM1jaCO_2BrTKBA5/s1600/Feb_Day3_2.jpg" /></a></div>
I diecut 2 banners shapes from white and grey cardstock, stamped the sentiment onto the white one, and then I stapled them onto the bottom right of the card. I then stamped, coloured and diecut the adorable cow image and added him on with foam adhesive. <br />
<br />
Thanks so much for joining me for day 3 of the February release countdown.

Hello and welcome to day 4 of the <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/">My Favorite Things</a> February release countdown. For the next 5 days, we're counting down to
the February 2017 release, sharing cards and ideas using the new products.<br />
<br />
For today's card, I used the awesome new<b> Space Explorer</b> stamp set (and coordinating dies) to create a cute little space scene. <br />

I started off by diecutting a circle from a piece of masking paper and then I adhered the negative piece of the masking paper onto a piece of white cardstock. I used an ink blending tool and various colours of Distress Inks and added colour to the inside area of the circle.<br />
<br />
I started with my lighter colours first and then slowly built up the darker colours on top until I had it nice and dark with different shades of colour. Before I removed the mask, I watered down some white acrylic paint and then I splattered it on top to give the look of stars.<br />

I stamped, coloured and diecut one of the adorable little astronauts from the stamp set and adhered him over the inked circle with foam adhesive for some added dimension. I stamped the sentiment below him with black ink and then I matted the panel onto a piece of Lavender Fields cardstock before adding it to a Stone Gray card base.<br />

Hello and welcome to day 5 of the <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/">My Favorite Things</a> February release countdown. For the next 5 days, we're counting down to
the February 2017 release, sharing cards and ideas using the new products.<br />
<br />
For today's card I used the new <b>Friends Furever</b> stamp set (and coordinating die-namics) along with the new <b>Lots of Hugs</b> stamp set (my favourite from this release!!) to create a cute card with an awesome sentiment.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCbdU_Djs1Ojab1zfOHbSxRIGVeFq7X35LVfWZo47YPLXjwbp53FH9AqNomWTtggP4UA-2TOhepwWCWTJL2n4yW__YNCNFjyF7ReNHfEny50tErcykuvG_VhAZxLHoJavHRcZ3R1woW85x/s1600/Feb_Day5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCbdU_Djs1Ojab1zfOHbSxRIGVeFq7X35LVfWZo47YPLXjwbp53FH9AqNomWTtggP4UA-2TOhepwWCWTJL2n4yW__YNCNFjyF7ReNHfEny50tErcykuvG_VhAZxLHoJavHRcZ3R1woW85x/s1600/Feb_Day5.jpg" /></a></div>
I stamped the bear and puppy image onto white card stock, coloured them in with Copic markers and diecut the image with the coordinating die. As soon as I saw this image and the cute bear and puppy hugging, I knew I wanted to use the <b>Lots of Hugs</b> stamp set with it.<br />
<br />
I created a blue inked background by adding distress ink to a white card
stock panel with an ink blending tool. I added some texture to it by
spritzing some water on it and dabbing it off with a paper towel... I
love the distressed look you end up with just from adding water.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNI8qHrhUCtYhe605TIXMLmJoKrogKoZyPfk7QxkA02svsqAKVbFci8viLYwXCP2QhfEUR2Lu1ThK3ShLAlRwGOldfPRmSpT5r_CkfHhVwoMWRUHTtQm75J2mRK21qaqDoPBAjppPWZxc4/s1600/Feb_Day5_2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNI8qHrhUCtYhe605TIXMLmJoKrogKoZyPfk7QxkA02svsqAKVbFci8viLYwXCP2QhfEUR2Lu1ThK3ShLAlRwGOldfPRmSpT5r_CkfHhVwoMWRUHTtQm75J2mRK21qaqDoPBAjppPWZxc4/s1600/Feb_Day5_2.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
Once the background was dry, I added the sentiment (one of my favourites in the stamp set) with black ink and then I adhered the diecut image above it with foam adhesive. I also added some clear sequins for some added detail and dimension. ;)<br />
<br /></div>

Hello and welcome to my release post for the <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/">My Favorite Things</a>
January 2017 card kit, No Place Like Home. This month's kit is officially available now in the <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/">MFT online store</a>!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For my card tonight, I wanted to go a little out of the box with my design and do something a little different. So I pulled out my distress inks and created a sunset. I masked off the horizon line and a circle for the moon and then I added orange and yellow distress inks and then blues to the top part of the sky.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbnP8T2IqA-oQSxehMUNnuU42eKSXErBbRaE9ZPwM_VysCE8pJhayjajfV4VWK5uws7u4lJrDbSJANeoFCUIL90oz9Jv6JMd8aPzdtmfQCNmw7RYqHDhJ0HY7pZ80_XPS39gboOK1EggTd/s1600/Jan_CardKit_1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbnP8T2IqA-oQSxehMUNnuU42eKSXErBbRaE9ZPwM_VysCE8pJhayjajfV4VWK5uws7u4lJrDbSJANeoFCUIL90oz9Jv6JMd8aPzdtmfQCNmw7RYqHDhJ0HY7pZ80_XPS39gboOK1EggTd/s1600/Jan_CardKit_1.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Once I had the sky area done, I took off the masks and covered the sky so I could create a snow covered ground at the bottom. I used blue and grey inks to create the look of snow in the dark, and then I added some yellow to the area of the snow under the moon. I also added a bit of black ink along the horizon line so it wouldn't be completely straight across.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I diecut one of the houses and three of the tree trunks from black cardstock and adhered them to the scene so they would look like silhouettes. I then used a dark grey marker and added shadows onto the snow coming from the house and trees.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihtAQPTltumtYwymETOY8b-5Bb0msZmpg9CiEQQcQRVEvtrzXgSAZDhdJZUaTZIFpv1af4HLtM4BOL0wyFUFAONcSj0IYe5D7yFcTk2fGpGf7bKKWGFM7iz7RetBqIAOGC5Z0vm57rOt0k/s1600/JanCardKit_1_Close.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihtAQPTltumtYwymETOY8b-5Bb0msZmpg9CiEQQcQRVEvtrzXgSAZDhdJZUaTZIFpv1af4HLtM4BOL0wyFUFAONcSj0IYe5D7yFcTk2fGpGf7bKKWGFM7iz7RetBqIAOGC5Z0vm57rOt0k/s1600/JanCardKit_1_Close.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To finish the card, I stamped one of the sentiments from the stamp set onto the bottom area of the snow with Black Licorice dye ink. Not sure that I totally love the card in the end, but I loved experimenting and using the kit in a fun, unexpected way!</div>

Hello and welcome to day one of the countdown for the <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/">My Favorite Things</a>
January 2017 card kit, No Place Like Home. This month's kit might be a
new favourite... I love everything that comes in it and had so much fun
creating with it! ;)</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For my card today, I used the large keyhole die and cut it out of the center of my cardstock panel. I added some Peacock Feathers Distress ink through the Small brick Stencil to give the background the look of a house and then I adhered the panel onto a Grout Gray piece of cardstock with foam adhesive.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjm1W57bAy-t7jYBvmH1Za3gA1A6eqRIf8m-qDfsR3ac2JwuYExI0Aa9hHNOphPeDL86f7NypVCClJ7CydDhwELFyNX2oihsQr6vd1LO0iZjoUcpXV6iogQjAC0X9rqwEUp2keNvQTyD4iJ/s1600/JanCardKit_2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjm1W57bAy-t7jYBvmH1Za3gA1A6eqRIf8m-qDfsR3ac2JwuYExI0Aa9hHNOphPeDL86f7NypVCClJ7CydDhwELFyNX2oihsQr6vd1LO0iZjoUcpXV6iogQjAC0X9rqwEUp2keNvQTyD4iJ/s1600/JanCardKit_2.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Before adhering it to the grey panel, I stamped the sentiment with black ink above abd below the keyhole. I love the stitched detail that the die leaves behind. Once I had everything adhered, I used the Silver Shine cardstock to cut out one of the keys and added it over the opening. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgb8FvdUMqDaEbXjBJ-v87GELqbSbMZMI8tPemud2rJ2PQ7DLDBPMq8RaLGkfScZqL2QGjiTv4KVyw_PTL5wxwdjbCv_4gMd1t81Ah-kkZ5xP0DYSDP86RotyAPAUzVCxuS14NU82afM0XW/s1600/JanCardKit_2_Close.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgb8FvdUMqDaEbXjBJ-v87GELqbSbMZMI8tPemud2rJ2PQ7DLDBPMq8RaLGkfScZqL2QGjiTv4KVyw_PTL5wxwdjbCv_4gMd1t81Ah-kkZ5xP0DYSDP86RotyAPAUzVCxuS14NU82afM0XW/s1600/JanCardKit_2_Close.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I also added a heart that I had diecut from the Hot Cocoa Cups Die-namics.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

Hello and welcome to the countdown for the <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/">My Favorite Things</a> January 2017 card kit, No Place Like Home. This month's kit might be a new favourite... I love everything that comes in it and had so much fun creating with it! ;)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For my card today, I created a watercolour scene by first drawing out some lines with a black pen and then I watercoloured the scene with Prima watercolours.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhx9A3cN-2BCrAYR7b213MHQRaUw8lbWh6bcmRAyypDFDmHV9yVRn7aGZ7k-y_dON7TXjg4Er9cJE_uy4CWbRhmLg_ZBBAKxwXezZlKu_JfNhCpzjtRjCOu53C8owp9SXCMYel-CxiQjLbF/s1600/MFTJanKit_3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhx9A3cN-2BCrAYR7b213MHQRaUw8lbWh6bcmRAyypDFDmHV9yVRn7aGZ7k-y_dON7TXjg4Er9cJE_uy4CWbRhmLg_ZBBAKxwXezZlKu_JfNhCpzjtRjCOu53C8owp9SXCMYel-CxiQjLbF/s1600/MFTJanKit_3.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Once I had the scene watercoloured and I had let it dry, I diecut the house and tree from using the Home Sweet Home dies from the kit and I added colour to them using Distress Inks and an ink blending tool.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I used the <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/stencil-english-brick-wall">Small English Brick Wall</a> stencil to add some detail to the house before adhering all the pieces on and then I added to roof, door, windows and chimney.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2SKAU7M7b8h5UB19HhyphenhyphenYa_RSU41hmHILxdryzIo0ok2K3nXSHAokNzADEjIYElJsBvFsTey68Myo76-C6htDO5A7FI4IeNWXUO05KgVHXhEZveFMKSs3Dp9X4ooBgqGmvyGtRJPgdANpL/s1600/MFT_JanKit_3_2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2SKAU7M7b8h5UB19HhyphenhyphenYa_RSU41hmHILxdryzIo0ok2K3nXSHAokNzADEjIYElJsBvFsTey68Myo76-C6htDO5A7FI4IeNWXUO05KgVHXhEZveFMKSs3Dp9X4ooBgqGmvyGtRJPgdANpL/s1600/MFT_JanKit_3_2.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Some of my green watercolour ran up into the sky area, so I used the same black pen that I used for the horizon and sidewalk, and I tuned the blob of green paint into a couple of bushes lol! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

Hello and welcome to the <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/">My Favorite Things</a> Release Replay where the design team shares more projects using products from the January release.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For my card, I wanted to use the cute <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/i-m-owl-yours">I'm Owl Yours </a>stamp set to create a fun card with a bunch of 'selfie' photos on it lol! I thought having a bunch of selfie's of one of the owls would work awesome with the sentiment that I used on the card.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEid5Sojt1xHJf83XPxueT-QKPdZD9XcLns1DPlGh4V5p4fgP6_JtVKnrQaEwD13M5G0cksdzeSMuzxEGvtUZFvT508YOqtYpaaIfqtOpRM1LL5JTDzipvRdg0Mz3V2-20ahqdjA48fXRRDf/s1600/Jan_RR.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEid5Sojt1xHJf83XPxueT-QKPdZD9XcLns1DPlGh4V5p4fgP6_JtVKnrQaEwD13M5G0cksdzeSMuzxEGvtUZFvT508YOqtYpaaIfqtOpRM1LL5JTDzipvRdg0Mz3V2-20ahqdjA48fXRRDf/s1600/Jan_RR.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I stamped the same owl on a bunch of different <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/die-namics-precious-polaroids">Polaroid Frames</a> that I had cut out with watercolor paper. I wanted the images to look like he was getting too close to the camera and getting out of frame... you know, all the usual things that happen when we try and take selfies haha!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJu0TFKIpKjb5KGRaMy0b-o5ZmZMTBtcD10eCoEAqfPazTxCpO-Qcispps8_bd4VihW5KfxDtZlnb6WPqfWrNThgIH1ID_8_zYBlTOJyfU-THLLP7NmdVcwCUwlP5LEkwM77aJ37YtUu3U/s1600/Jan_RR_2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJu0TFKIpKjb5KGRaMy0b-o5ZmZMTBtcD10eCoEAqfPazTxCpO-Qcispps8_bd4VihW5KfxDtZlnb6WPqfWrNThgIH1ID_8_zYBlTOJyfU-THLLP7NmdVcwCUwlP5LEkwM77aJ37YtUu3U/s1600/Jan_RR_2.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Once I had all the images stamped, I coloured them in with my watercolours and I also created a watercolour background. I let everything dry and then I added the photos to the card front, stamped the sentiment and adhered the whole panel to a top-folding grey card base.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">The

<div style="text-align: justify;">
For my card I used the new <a href="https://www.thetonstamps.com/products/city-girls-park-life">City Girls Park Life </a>stamp set (my favourite from this release) and created a fun watercolour scene on my card. I love all of the images in this set and couldn't wait to get them on a card! ;)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisOoFxhjkaLsZqPApoQmR2z55emrhJ8PVWiv5lwilRj0U7Q1u7xD2z9-z1mvFAFCP88-kcPoZW-DQDsny_a5bOj3c_UFxMkXGBROCImNHwUamzAiAaNzmYdBPg9fSEVqrjmLt8LMavtusB/s1600/TheTon.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisOoFxhjkaLsZqPApoQmR2z55emrhJ8PVWiv5lwilRj0U7Q1u7xD2z9-z1mvFAFCP88-kcPoZW-DQDsny_a5bOj3c_UFxMkXGBROCImNHwUamzAiAaNzmYdBPg9fSEVqrjmLt8LMavtusB/s1600/TheTon.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I stamped the two girl images onto Neenah Solar White cardstock, coloured them in with Copic markers and then fussy cut them with my scissors. To create my background scene, I stamped the bench onto watercolor cardstock with Versafine Onyx Black ink and then I heat embossed over it with clear embossing powder.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I then used Distress Inks and added the background colours to look like the ground and the sky. I love the outline of the watercolour area and think it looks so great with the stamped images.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_Yz6z98JRtcmgkRkqzplmVCNwSbyydavUmKiXBK2FVOFa5_xGUKbHN4uCerAcNSLOwe2ugor7i3LQ6sB3VmlST4SBAVDDbqSJWcV-wHmASGGEnusd0QZkUVfMIoZQJakmVNe-PKeQmOXr/s1600/TheTon_2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_Yz6z98JRtcmgkRkqzplmVCNwSbyydavUmKiXBK2FVOFa5_xGUKbHN4uCerAcNSLOwe2ugor7i3LQ6sB3VmlST4SBAVDDbqSJWcV-wHmASGGEnusd0QZkUVfMIoZQJakmVNe-PKeQmOXr/s1600/TheTon_2.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Once the watercolour was dry, I adhered the girls to the bench with liquid adhesive and I created the sentiment banner. I used a sentiment from the new <a href="https://www.thetonstamps.com/products/brushed-hugs">Brushed Hugs</a> stamps set and white heat embossed it onto black cardstock. I trimmed the left edge into a banner and adhered it to the top area of my card so it didn't cover any of the watercolour scene.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

Hello and welcome to the new product launch for the My Favorite Things January 2017 release! We've been sharing projects all week long using the new products and everything is officially available now in the MFT online store! Yay!!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Tonight I'm sharing a card that I created using the new <b>Mailbox</b> die and my favourite sentiment ever from the new <b>Love is in the Mail </b>stamp set.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcULaRz4WsL-5ZpuLOlU5AqXg3mhRuu8nX70Wpy_Ioz3PE_VKBs3NZdK6NPAnKzqqWE7jKw9wFWBDOFWIy3IAaqL6PbfgN7hH5osT3fhEHhDvbeji9kSBnW02GlLYvuSp7PH0OUxC5tgIk/s1600/Mailbox.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcULaRz4WsL-5ZpuLOlU5AqXg3mhRuu8nX70Wpy_Ioz3PE_VKBs3NZdK6NPAnKzqqWE7jKw9wFWBDOFWIy3IAaqL6PbfgN7hH5osT3fhEHhDvbeji9kSBnW02GlLYvuSp7PH0OUxC5tgIk/s1600/Mailbox.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I diecut the mailbox from watercolor paper and then I coloured each piece with an ink blending tool and distress inks. I love how saturated the colours are and how textured it looks from using the watercolor paper.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDVoTMawDHQ1CcxFmV9rxfYOcnTTtReme1ImXKEj9xKQJ-jIJj0erVRR2CfFRxgryxzb8RJGvcKboBkStjqimp_HWEcSniqzjN_OVBJG6wRB84prCcy8Wdl2IExBiaGo0jo9VLcRcKcYV0/s1600/Mailbox_2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDVoTMawDHQ1CcxFmV9rxfYOcnTTtReme1ImXKEj9xKQJ-jIJj0erVRR2CfFRxgryxzb8RJGvcKboBkStjqimp_HWEcSniqzjN_OVBJG6wRB84prCcy8Wdl2IExBiaGo0jo9VLcRcKcYV0/s1600/Mailbox_2.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For the background I used distress inks and lightly blended them onto a white cardstock panel and then I added some water to give it a distressed look. Once it was dry I adhered the mailbox over top with foam adhesive for some fun dimension.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I layered the top part of the mailbox with foam adhesive so I could add some envelopes inside and make it look more realistic and then I also added one into the grass to make it look like it fell from the mailbox.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5RBGBIiBj62NK1HO3zMZ1pjTryFccB_WE4iTq1Jq-fl4To0o980yeo09ASU4OrNLZcuXQovO1kB4L99W6B8eT6mDgJkjz049E6TtsngWxvSpQYhO9tZOryc_V6qU8IezFQfUObD2P1Q1j/s1600/Mailbox_3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5RBGBIiBj62NK1HO3zMZ1pjTryFccB_WE4iTq1Jq-fl4To0o980yeo09ASU4OrNLZcuXQovO1kB4L99W6B8eT6mDgJkjz049E6TtsngWxvSpQYhO9tZOryc_V6qU8IezFQfUObD2P1Q1j/s1600/Mailbox_3.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I decided not to add a sentiment to the front of the card, so I added inside instead. I love love love this sentiment and was so excited when it was added to a stamp set. ;)<br />
<br />
You can see how I created this card in this weeks episode of MFTv on the MFT YouTube channel. </div>

Hello and welcome to my stop on the <a href="http://wp.me/p6Dps1-3xs">Altenew blog hop</a> featuring their new Artist Markers! You should have arrived here from <a href="http://meandminimecrafting.blogspot.ca/">Marika's</a> blog.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Here's a little bit about the markers from Altenew:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Altenew Artist Markers are alcohol-based, allowing you to beautifully blend colors to any stamped images. Our various range of stamps is perfect for these markers. You can also easily pair them with our Crisp Dye Inks to take your coloring to the next level! The colors in this set are designed to be as close as possible to our existing ink colors, so you can take the color guessing game out of the way when coloring.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For my card<i> </i>I used the Altenew Tulip stamp set so I could use the markers to colour in the beautiful flower images.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXS83Rhrojc-FUOoSNpyBzEPKlN2C_8X2hrmgRbXFCY9Sd1l75du4h65Xlu8oLXv9IVj95g0_0RwZnHf6f3uWZDuEwtahz7yyzxk6BDv5bl5SCzZckBLqku7_8ZDBwG7ThtJnQDjnFgASm/s1600/Altenew.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXS83Rhrojc-FUOoSNpyBzEPKlN2C_8X2hrmgRbXFCY9Sd1l75du4h65Xlu8oLXv9IVj95g0_0RwZnHf6f3uWZDuEwtahz7yyzxk6BDv5bl5SCzZckBLqku7_8ZDBwG7ThtJnQDjnFgASm/s1600/Altenew.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I used every colour that comes in this first set (except the black) to colour in my flowers. They blend beautifully together and the colours are so vibrant and beautiful! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoHCDpsZWc21DT9RwpOzPpPVCamSWFnJkwL7TDzx9fe-9YBAAv9zMUVJrNlM034lTsjy5UBqOkXYnJMcgB-eMGi7Qvg0gmzIUgrA12xEEj3TtuAZD1aqw42CDO2XpDKpFvJmzwdxgqAYwY/s1600/Altenew_2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoHCDpsZWc21DT9RwpOzPpPVCamSWFnJkwL7TDzx9fe-9YBAAv9zMUVJrNlM034lTsjy5UBqOkXYnJMcgB-eMGi7Qvg0gmzIUgrA12xEEj3TtuAZD1aqw42CDO2XpDKpFvJmzwdxgqAYwY/s1600/Altenew_2.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Once I had all of the flowers coloured, I stamped a sentiment onto a white cardstock banner and adhered it onto the bottom area of the panel. I then added the finished panel to a top folding grey card base. I love the pop of colour from the flowers on the grey card base.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

You can see how I created my card in the video below:<br />

Hello and welcome to day 1 of the <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/">My Favorite Things</a> January release countdown. For the next 5 days, we're counting down to
the January 2017 release, sharing cards and ideas using the new products.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For today's card I used the new <b>Floral Fantasy </b>background stamp to stamp my white card stock panel and then I diecut a heart out of the middle with the stitched heart from the new <b>Flop Card - Heart</b> die-namics.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZ6TAgLxplkiPp2jHVbccBqn9Yj1MYig7zyfsnGS_5qIyI5YTwO0lI6er_oJ5SFTxWxNFcL2DXokFjoF3J4BoU353oHMEj-vlNE3T116u-YTKF_KJ20Gv0JvlTryeaCuOqbrr0L190o1E8/s1600/MFTJan10.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZ6TAgLxplkiPp2jHVbccBqn9Yj1MYig7zyfsnGS_5qIyI5YTwO0lI6er_oJ5SFTxWxNFcL2DXokFjoF3J4BoU353oHMEj-vlNE3T116u-YTKF_KJ20Gv0JvlTryeaCuOqbrr0L190o1E8/s1600/MFTJan10.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I used markers and coloured in the diecut heart with lot's of bright pinks, reds and greens and then I adhered it onto the card base with the negative piece. I adhered the heart directly to the card base and the negative piece with foam adhesive for some dimension.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJcjneAPTD68ptDHzxGtn4MRpE5qu47iQqRQWybFqfu25Ak8q-QAN-gFHDNvehs_aLQ31pbgkSnbwbw3LoB3tvA-UPIVs-46R1VbJCNUAKsHnKBbE1nVEgnzGawWDbOtlswknZmMYoAxxr/s1600/MFTJan10_2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJcjneAPTD68ptDHzxGtn4MRpE5qu47iQqRQWybFqfu25Ak8q-QAN-gFHDNvehs_aLQ31pbgkSnbwbw3LoB3tvA-UPIVs-46R1VbJCNUAKsHnKBbE1nVEgnzGawWDbOtlswknZmMYoAxxr/s1600/MFTJan10_2.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I stamped the sentiment onto a white Stitched Sentiment Strip and adhered it over the heart. I love the shadow effect you get behind the banner and I love how the bright colours make the heart pop off the background, ;)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>

For my card today I used the new <b>Well-Connected Alphabet </b>stamp set along with the <b>Big Hugs</b> die to create a personalized card.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I used the <b>Big Hugs </b>die and cut a window on my card front and then I added the stamped sentiment banner through the H for fun unique look.<br />

Hello and welcome to day 3 of the <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/">My Favorite Things</a> January release countdown. For the next 5 days, we're counting down to
the January 2017 release, sharing cards and ideas using the new products.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For today's card I used the new <b>Mailbox</b> Die-namics and diecut a bunch of the two envelopes in the die set from white cardstock and added colour to them using distress ink.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjA5wdFVXi4Gdd02d7vJwc5_BOeZp6sXrThSOCAvlIPXsc5XgcgQ_bsqIY7WM3c8Bdvz4zQqf2Rf4Ko75ao-MmpfY8L6hNXW0Cu9m6Hn0mk1Q2x9orw74oN9vkVIDES5Rjz73Uv3JSNj0Ak/s1600/MFT_Jan8.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjA5wdFVXi4Gdd02d7vJwc5_BOeZp6sXrThSOCAvlIPXsc5XgcgQ_bsqIY7WM3c8Bdvz4zQqf2Rf4Ko75ao-MmpfY8L6hNXW0Cu9m6Hn0mk1Q2x9orw74oN9vkVIDES5Rjz73Uv3JSNj0Ak/s1600/MFT_Jan8.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Once I had the envelopes inked up, I layered a few of them on black cardstock for a shadow effect. I stamped the sentiment (my all-time favourite sentiment ever!!) from the <b>Love is in the Mail </b>stamp set with black ink onto a white cardstock panel and then I adhered the envelopes all around it.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLVVulPnkvL4tEuImmCNWjjyI-aui0mYEttmfF2peyC85qGxSij5YdjPpTUDVpV5GK6KvILRxih-tam6Pig1aokno_PxoWtx72JIEagY9YjmM6OjpTxpW7LziTWAU00GfC8phB4_KYlNL4/s1600/MFT_Jan8_2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLVVulPnkvL4tEuImmCNWjjyI-aui0mYEttmfF2peyC85qGxSij5YdjPpTUDVpV5GK6KvILRxih-tam6Pig1aokno_PxoWtx72JIEagY9YjmM6OjpTxpW7LziTWAU00GfC8phB4_KYlNL4/s1600/MFT_Jan8_2.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I stamped the heart from the stamp set onto the center of all of the envelopes with black ink and then I completed the card with a scattering of clear sequins.</div>
