A Cup of Thanks

Hi there! I got a chance this weekend to ink up the Tea Time Stamp Set from Avery Elle and play along with the AEI♥U Challenge #27–Embossing. 



I have two different types of embossing on my card. The background is created with an embossing folder from Taylored Expressions, Dotted Lattice. And the checkered pattern is created with the MFT Fine Check Background Stamp, white pigment ink, and white embossing powder.


The tea cup is colored with Copics and I added a little glitter to the tea. The pretty sequins are from Pretty Pink Posh.

Thanks for stopping by! Have a great week!

MFT's March Ingenious Inking Challenge – Mixed Media

Thanks for stopping by today for MFT's March Ingenious Inking Challenge – Mixed Media. 

 Mixed media can be a little intimidating – once you begin piling up different textures, patterns, and colors though, you quickly realize how forgiving, and exciting, it can be. Mixed media projects are the perfect opportunity to experiment with the capabilities of your supplies and explore your creativity so this month, we’re using Hybrid Inks – the perfect choice for mixed media applications with it’s quick-dry, no-smudge formulation – in mixed media applications.

I used a piece of canvas for the background of this scrapbook page. First I stamped the Birthday Background Stamp in Black Licorice Hybrid Ink. The Hybrid Inks are perfect for Mixed Media because they are permanent and do not run. 

Next I used an embossing paste and the Concentric Circles Stencil, sprinkling glitter on the paste before it was dry. The bottom border pattern is sponged with the Diagonal Bars Stencil and Black Licorice Premium Dye Ink.


Next I misted the entire canvas with spray I mixed with the Berrylicious Premium Dye Ink Refill and water. The "16" is cut with the Little Numbers Die-namics and "happy" is cut with the Happy Birthday Die-namics. 


On my tag I  stamped the Birthday Background Stamp on craft tissue paper and then applied the stamped tissue paper over Summer Splash Card Stock with a medium mat gel. The tag is cut with the Traditional Stitched Tags Die-namics. 

Next I cut the Modern Morocco Cover-Up Die-namics from chipboard and embossed the chipboard with Silver Embossing Powder. 


The large rose is cut from Banana Split Felt with the Mini Hybrid Heirloom Rose Die-namics. The smaller rose is cut from Ripe Raspberry Card Stock with the Royal Rose Die-namics and then brushed with gesso. I used the Layered Leaves Die-namics to create the leaves. 

The sentiment is stamped with Ripe Raspberry Hybrid Ink and watercolored with the Sour Apple Dye Ink Refill and water. It is included in the Birthday Greetings Stamp Set. 


Here are the products I used to create by projects:

MFT's March Die-namics Design – Cover-Up Craze

Thanks for stopping by for MFT's March Die-namics Design Challenge.

We put a lot of thought into our products and our line of Cover-Ups reflects our attention to detail when it comes to what works for you. Designed to layer beautifully on a standard A2 size, Cover-Ups add dimension and texture. These designs are equally as beautiful tone-on-tone as they are with bright, contrasting pops of color. You’ll be amazed at the creative ways our team has featured Cover-Ups in their projects this month.

Be sure to stop by the MFT Blog for the list of all the designers sharing projects today.


On my  first card uses the Floral Fusion Cover-Up Die-namics to create an elegant card for a wedding. I cut the background from Whip Cream Card Stock and added a white, glittered card stock behind the flowers. 

The sentiment is from the Together Forever Stamp Set, stamping Delicata Silver Ink on Black Licorice Card Stock, and embossing with silver embossing powder. The sentiment is cut out with the Stitchable Dot Circle STAX Die-namics and then the Circle STAX Die-namics. 


On the inside I stamped another sentiment from the Together Forever Stamp Set. 


For my second card I went with a more graphic feel and used the Triangle Screen Die-namics. I cut the Cover-Up from Sweet Tooth Card Stock and then cut a few more triangles from Blueberry and Limelight Card Stock and inlayed them in the card front. 

I used the Scribble Die-namics to add the circle embellishments. 


Behind the Triangle Screen Die-namics I added Lemon Chiffon Card Stock stamped with the Swiss Dot Background Stamp. The sentiment is from the Totally Happy Stamp Set and cut out with the Stitched Fishtail Flags Die-namics. 


On the inside I stamped another sentiment from the Totally Happy Stamp Set.
