Congrats!

Hi all! Long time, no see! I'm back along with the rest of the Card Concept Blog Challenge crew for NEW challenges! And we are starting off with a good one ;)  I used a mix of old MFT die-namics and patterned paper, as well as an older Your Next Stamp die.

We look forward to seeing what you create! Thanks for stopping by!

The Card Concept Challenge Time!

Hi all! I'm pretty excited to have a card for you today! This is inspired by the latest The Card Concept Blog Challenge. I used all MFT goodies for this one. :)  And I hope my background prop doesn't offend - just trying to laugh during these crazy times...

I hope you are all doing well, being cautious and taking advantage of being able to spend extra time with family and maybe squeezing in some crafty time!

Hugs,

Angel

The Card Concept Challenge Time!

Hello All! Looong time, no see! I'm back with a card (yes, a bit late) for our first challenge of 2020! I used some older MFT die-namics. The sentiment is from their Sassy Pants B-day Greetings 2 set.

Thanks for stopping by!

The Card Concept Challenge Time

HI all!  We're back with a new challenge this week - a pretty Thanksgiving table setting! I used some Lil Inker Designs dies, MFT dies and a Lil Inker Designs stamp for my CAS card. The card base is MFT's primitive white cardstock. I used several MFT inks and played around on watercolor paper. Once dried, I used the dies to cut out the pumpkin and leaves.

Thanks for stopping by and we hope you'll play along!

The Card Concept Challenge Time!

Hi all! I'm back! In case you wondered, we had a major renovation project in our house thanks to a toilet leak. We spent 57 nights in a hotel. Not. Fun. But it's all done and we're back home :)  Here's my card for the latest The Card Concept Challenge:

I used some retired MFT die-namics and a messy watercoloring technique using my Zig pens for the flowers.

The Card Concept Challenge Time!

Hi all!  Happy Wednesday and welcome to another The Card Concept Challenge!  I swiped some of my Copic markers to create a rainbow pattern then cut it out with the Celebrate Speech Bubble die-namic then backed it with white cardstock.  I used Versamark ink to clear emboss the Radiating Halftone background stamp onto the black licorice card base, then adhered the Celebrate die on top. 

Thanks for stopping by! We look forward to seeing your creations!

The Card Concept Challenge Time!

Hi all! It's time for a new challenge on The Card Concept Challenge Blog and it's a FESTIVE one! I layered silver foil behind the circle/die-namic cut layer. The tree was colored with Copic Markers. The sentiment is from the Snow Globe Sentiment set from MFT. I love the simple font! The card base is Grout Gray.

Thanks for stopping by!  We would love for you to play along with us!

Have a Beary Good Birthday

Hi all! I'm back with another card I made, this time using the MFT set Polar Bear Pals. This was made for their World Card Making Day challenge - ROYGBIV. I colored the bear with Copics, then used a star stencil (MFT - retired) and MFT inks for the background. I added a little shimmer with my clear Wink of Stella marker to the scarf and stars. I layered some MFT black and white patterned paper to break up all the white.

Thanks for stopping by!

MFT Card Design Supterstar Contest - 3rd card!

Hi all! Here's my final card for the Innovative category of the MFT Card Design Superstar Contest. I got the idea for this one after watching THE Jennifer McGuire's video for tunnel cards. This one was SO fun to make! :) I used the Bitty Bears, Birthday Bears and Up in the Air stamp sets. The black and white patterned paper is from MFT, as well as the cotton candy and black licorice cardstock. All images were colored with Copics. I did add a little shimmer to all of the birthday hats and banners with a clear Wink of Stella pen. I curved the sentiment so it matched the banner die-namic that is in a retired Blueprints set. I also stamped some of the cardstock with the Itsy Bitsy Polka Dots BG stamp using ripe raspberry ink.

Thanks for stopping by!

MFT Card Design Superstar Contest - 2nd card!

Hi all!  I'm back with another card for the MFT Card Design Superstar contest because, well, you gotta be in it to win it! FINGERS CROSSED! Here's my coloring virtuoso card using the BB Mermazing set. The small island is from the Party Like a Pirate set and the sentiment is from the Beach Buds set (it seemed fitting for this card). :)  I used several MFT inks. You can even see a few stars that I stamped in sweet tooth ink from the retired Totally Happy set. I used a white gel pen to add a bit of glisten to the water and also some dimension to her tail. 

Thanks for stopping by!

MFT Card Design Superstar Contest!

HI all!  Here's my card for the Clean And Simple category of the MFT Card Design Superstar contest. I used the Floral Fantasy background for this sympathy card.  I embossed the stamp with white embossing powder, then colored with my Zig pens, blending with water as I went. I added a twist to the card by cutting the image then adhering to acetate to create my card front. The sentiment is from Brushstroke Expressions. There are some amazing entries in ALL of the categories, so I'm SUPER nervous!

Thanks for stopping by!

Howdy, Friend

HI all!  I had a little fun with the new MFT Saddle Up & Celebrate set. I also made this for their MFT Sketch and Color Challenges. I'm also entering this in Kathy Racoosin's Coloring Contest. I colored everything with Copics.  I used the cloud stencil and sweet tooth pigment ink for the background on the card base.

Thanks for stopping by!

Let's Celebrate

Hi all!  I colored up this cute new PI for Kathy Rac's coloring challenge and also the MFTWSC397. I used Copics for my coloring. I curved the sentiment to match the curve of the scalloped circle die-namic (retired).  I also stamped the scalloped circle die and the Grapesicle layer with the Itsy Bitsy Polka Dot background.

Thanks for stopping by!
