It's time to party! - Birthday card

Hi There! I’m playing along with the MFT Color Challenge #88 and MFT Wednesday Sketch Challenge #374 today. I kept away all my dies and made this simple one layer birthday card featuring adorable bears from MFT BB Bitty Bears. This particular set is one of my most favorite and I really enjoyed playing with them. I did a simple masking technique for my card! So, here is my take!

First, I drew a frame on the base card and lined the bear stamps. I picked all the birthday themed bears to add extra fun to the card. Using my MISTI tool, I stamped and colored the bears with Copic Markers. Next, I inked up the background with Salty Ocean distress ink. I combined two sentiments from the Bitty Bears set and stamped directly on the base card. That’s all for today!

Happy Hippo Bird-Day!

Hello! Hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Today, I'm sharing another birthday card inspired by this week's My Favorite Things Color and Sketch challenge. I had a fun time making this card. I'm in love with the adorable hippos and birdies from the Happy Hippo stamps set from MFT. Can't wait to play with the rest of the stamps! Let's move on to the card.

It's been quite a while since I used patterned papers on my cards. So, I had to look on my patterned papers stash to pick the right matching color patterned papers for this card. I used wonky stitched die from MFT to create a border. Then, I colored the hippos and birds using distress inks and cut them with coordinating dies from the stamps set. Next, I used circle dies to cut out few frames and made a round window for the bird to peek through and view the scene. Finished off by stamping the sentiment and adhering the images using adhesive foams.

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:

Make a Wish Birthday Card

Hi there! I have been doing a lot of things in my craft room. I'm a bit stressed out looking at my room and decided to purge out all the supplies. Today I'm sharing this birthday card featuring cute little mice from the Penny Black - Loads of Love stamps set. I used Copic to color the image and the sentiment I used is from Studio-G stamps set. 

I used distress inks to create the background and made a gold glitter frame using Sizzix circle die cut as a border. Finished off this card by adhering the layer on a kraft cardstock using foam adhesive to give some dimension. 

I'm entering this card in the following challenges :

Celebrate with Cupcake!

Hello everyone!! Here is a quick card I made for my friend. I don't remember when was the last time I had cupcake! :P I adore this cute cupcake stamp from Recollections. I used some of my very favorite colors. Too much of stitch lines! I can't seem to resist adding stitch lines to all my cards. I'm linking up this card at Simon Says Stamp challenge - "Triangles".
