The Card Concept Challenge Time

Hi all! I'm here (albeit a little late) with my card for the latest The Card Concept Challenge. I used a new set from Erin Lee Creative along with one of her new stencils (the embossed shimmery houndstooth background). The sentiment is from the MFT Sending Sweet Celebration Wishes set.

Thank you 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

You're Fintastic!

HI all!  Here's my card that I made for the MFTWSC423 sketch challenge. I colored a few of the images from the Beach Buds stamp set and used a circle die to create this scene.  I added a layer of acetate to give you the feeling of looking in an aquarium.  :)

The Card Concept Challenge

HI all!  Happy Hump Day! It's time for a new challenge over on The Card Concept Challenge Blog!  I colored the tree from the Santa's Elves set and made it the focus with patterned paper framed with primitive white card stock. I added some red glittered YNS Gumdrops as ornaments.

The Card Concept Challenge Time! #100!!!

Hi all! It's time for a new challenge over on The Card Concept Blog and it's number 100! We have special guests joining us - so exciting! I asked my sweet crafty friend Brianna to join me in this challenge. I used the Lil Inker Designs Dual Stitched Pumpkin die for this card. I smudged some versamark ink on the bottom and then embossed with gold embossing powder. I colored the stem and created the grooves in the pumpkin with Copic markers. The flowers/vines and sentiment are also from Lil Inker Designs. The wood grain background stamp is from MFT.

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!

Small Card - Big Thanks

Hi all! Here's a card I made using the MFT Color Challenge #102 and their sketch challenge #405. I used the More Rustic Flowers stamp set and dies to create the main layer. I also added an extra flower with some Glossy Accents for extra dimension.  I embossed the sentiment, from the Bitty Bears set, onto black licorice card stock. The card base is Cement Gray.

Thanks for stopping by!

You mean the World to me

Hi all! I made this one for the MFTWSC392 challenge and their current color challenge #96. Need to relax a bit and take your mind off things?  Create a 'galaxy' background!  SO much fun!  No right or wrong, love it!  ;) I colored the Space Explorer image with Copic markers.

Have a Jawsome Day!

Hi all! I made another card for the MFT Summer School Classes - this one is for the Repetition challenge. I stamped the shark from the new Beach Buds stamp set then colored them with my Zig pens and some water to create my ocean scene. I love the loose watercolored look. The sentiment is embossed. I added a few clear gumdrops for fun.  :D

Life without you...

Hi all! I made another card for the MFT Summer School challenge. This one was to use primary colors.  I kept it small and simple by using them on this cutie's umbrella from the Bitty Bears stamp set. I used the cloud stencil and die-namics from an older Blueprints set for the sun to create an outside scene. The 'window' was created with one of the Blueprints 29 elements. The sentiment is from the Town Bear stamp set.

Thanks for stopping by!

Have a delightful day

HI all! Here's a card I made for the MFT Stamps Summer School 2018 Day 1 challenge: White Space. Well, my 'white space' is kraft colored :) I used an image from the BB You Gnome Me stamp set with a sentiment from the retired Sweet Forest Friends set. I used a (retired) Pierced Circle STAX die-namic to emboss the card base then layered the image over it creating a highlight. A trio of clear sequins add a little something extra, as do the rounded corners.

Thanks for stopping by!

The Card Concept Challenge Time!

Hi all! It's time for our last challenge of the summer over on The Card Concept Blog! I loved the gold and pinks so I embossed the Floral Fantasy BG stamp on some watercolor paper then used a few inks to swipe on some color, similar to the table card. I added a little twine behind the embossed sentiment from the Brushstroke Expressions set (retired).

We hope you'll play along with us!

Thanks for stopping by and see y'all back on The Card Concept Challenge Blog in September!

Hugs,
Angel
