My Favorite Things Stamps...WSC # 156...Congrats!


Hello Stampin' friends! I'm enjoying my holiday and don't return to work until Thursday :) I did a big clean-up of my craft-room today, after the Christmas card making frenzy. When I was done cleaning up, I messed it up again and made this card for the  My Favorite Things Stamps -  MFTWSC156 sketch.  I used a colour combo that I saw on Pintrest, HERE, for inspiration for my card.

Here is the great sketch that I used. I swapped out the Speech Bubble Frame for the Damask Designs.

I used MFT Heavyweight Card Stock in Sweet Tooth, Smooth White, Steel Blue, Steel Grey, and Sno Cone. I used the Sheet Music Background Stamp and stamped the Steel Blue Heavyweight Card Stock with Steel Grey Premium Dye Ink. I also used the NEW Stitched Circle STAX cut from Sno Cone Heavyweight Card Stock and I stamped the Damask Border from the NEW Damask Designs Stamp set with Sno Cone Premium Dye Ink. I layered that with the large Damask Design stamped with Steel Blue Premium Dye ink on Smooth White Heavyweight Card Stock and cut out with the NEW Damask Designs Die-namics.

I used the NEW Celebratory Greetings Die-namics for the sentiment and cut it from coordinating glitter paper and added a few champagne flutes cut from Silver Glitter paper with the Let's Toast Die-namics. I thought I would sprinkle my card with a few sequins and bling and I added a little swirl of silver cord.

Here is the inside...again, I added a Stitched Circle layered with 2 of the smaller Damask Designs tucked under the sentiment panel made with the Layered Treat Tag Die-namics and the Framed Greetings Die-namics. I stamped a sentiment from the NEW Celebrate Big Stamp set. I also used the NEW Negative Dots Numbers Die-namics cut from Sno Cone and Steel Grey Heavyweight Card Stock.

Well, thanks SO much for stopping by and havin' a wee peek at my card with this week's MFT Wednesday Stamp Club Sketch # 156!

My Favorite Things Stamps....Merry Christmas!


Hey stampin' friends! Just wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and share one last card with the sweet Pure Innocence Happy Christmas girl with Authentique Joyous 6X6 papers.

I matted in MFT Heavyweight Card Stock in Wild Cherry, Jellybean and Black Licorice. I used my Pierced Rectangle STAX, Rectangle STAX, Fishtail Flags and Fishtail Layers STAX and Decorative Doily layered with the Pierced Circle STAX and Circle STAX.

I coloured up the Pure Innocence Happy Christmas girl with my Copics and paper pieced her out fit, cut her out and popped her up on the Decorative Doily. I stamped a sentiment in Electric Red Premium Dye Ink on Primitive White Heavyweight Card Stock on a tag cut from Blueprints 2. I also had to add more corrugated snowflakes cut with the Let It Snowflake Die-namics and added Wild Cherry Buttons tied with hemp cord.  The little fishtail flags are from Blueprints 10 and I added a few Gumdrops.

Here is the inside...I stamped a shadow image of the sweet Happy Christmas PI girl in Jellybean Green Premium Dye ink and used the Pierced Rectangle STAX, Rectangle STAX and Decorative Doily Duo to create the sentiment panel. I stamped a sentiment from the Pure Innocence Stocking Girl in Wild Cherry Premium Dye Ink on Primitive White Heavyweight Card Stock cut out with the Layered Treat Tag Die-namics.

Well, thanks for stopping by and having a little look at my last Christmas card.  I hope you and your family have had a very Merry Christmas!
