MFT Camp Create ~ Awesome Ombre

So for the final challenge of Camp Create 2019 over at My Favorite Things, this challenge was to create some kind of ombre effect on your card or project.

I decided to follow the color scheme of a recent card I had posted (here) and use a pink ombre of Distress Oxide inks… soooo pretty!

I stamped each of my little bear images from the “Joyful Heart Bears” stamp set, masked off each stamped image and then blended the smooth oxide inks over my back ground.

I kept my coloring fairly simple and limited to just pinks, reds, whites and a pop of turquoise for a tiny pop of color. I even added some tiny speckles of gold!

And that concludes the 5 cards I created for the Camp Create 2019 event!  I was just so inspired to create the last 24 hours so I just went for it!

Thanks for stopping by!  I’d love to know your favourite?

MFT Camp Create ~ Monochromatic Magic

For the My Favorite Things Camp Create 2019, challenge #4 is all bout creating with only one color!  Yup, this project had to be monochromatic!

This one I had to think a little bit about so I went strolling through my MFT stamps and came across the sweet little cowboy & cowgirl images from the “Saddle Up & Celebrate” stamp set.  Perfect!  I thought a brown or sepia color scheme would work perfectly for this card!

I kept the card design simple to show off the monotone image.

That’s now 4 or 5 cards!  Only one more to go!

MFT Camp Create ~ Background Bonanza!

Challenge #3 for the Camp Create 2019 event sends us to create a fun back ground.

For this card I wanted to create a fun tall, thin style card instead of my traditional A2 sized cards.
I just had to use these sweet little birdies on my card from the MFT set “Tweet Friends”.  For their back ground, I used the “Mini Cloud Edges” and the “Grassy Edges” dies and some Distress Oxide inks to make a fun back drop for them to play on.

Are they a cute group or what?  I sure think so!

That’s 3 of 5!  Only 2 more to go!

MFT Camp Create ~ Inlaid Dies

Howdy everyone!  I’' really wanted to participate in the first round of My Favorite Things “Camp Create 2019” but I never got a chance so I made an effort to participate this time.  So I’m going to bombard your emails in the next few hours with some fun MFT card creations.

So the first Camp Create challenge was to create something with inlaid dies.

I chose to use a whole series of dies and a few stamp sets too for my card.  I used Rolling Hills, Radiant Sunshine, Grassy Edges, In the Clouds and Fall Friends.  I used my Copic Air Brush System to color most of my pieces; all except my little girl.

It turned way better that I thought it was going to.  I love the little girl image on the pumpkin – how cute is she?

Thanks for stopping by for project 1 of 5!  You'll have to tell me which card of the 5 is your favorite!!!

I Otterly Adore You!

And here is card #4 today for the My Favorite Things Camp Create 2017 event.  For this card, we had to create a card using die cuts.

I chose to stamp all my little fishies so they would peek out from behind all the polka dots!  I used my Copic air brush system to add some little blue colour and then took my Blender Pen and made it look like there were a few bubbles.

Thanks for stopping by today.  I hope my cards today have inspired you to create!  Have a great night all!

Happy Birthday Hippos!

Hey back again with card #3 today for the My Favorite Things Camp Create 2017 event.  For this card, we had to create a card using a masking technique.

I chose to feature the cute little hippos from the new "Happy Hippos" stamp collection.  I masked them all to make a little birthday hippo scene.

I had to add some party confetti too!

Hope you're having a great weekend!  I'm hoping to finish up the last remaining 2 challenges plus the bonus challenge too.  Off to create!

Hey again!I'm back with my second card for the My Favorite Things Camp Create 2017 event.  For this card, we had to create a card using the inlaid die cutting technique.

For this card I used a variety of fun MFT dies including Warm & Fuzzy Friends, Grassy Edges, Birch Trees. I had a ball colouring the night sky and landscape for this card...

Here's a little close up of my card front... I had to add a bit of shimmer...

For the sky and ground, I used some Ranger Distress Oxide inks with Copic tree and grass details.

Thanks for dropping in!  I hope you're creating something fun too today!

My Favorite Things Fun!

 

Hey everyone!  Happy Sunday!  This weekend I've been playing along with the My Favorite Things Camp Create 2017 event.  This event is five days of fun techniques and challenges for their product lovers.

 

I chose to create cards out of order and by whatever struck as inspiration first.  So my first card if for the Monochromatic card challenge.  I chose to use the colour orange.

For my card I used the sweet little kitties from the "Smitten Kitten" stamp set.

Here's a close up of my no-line coloured kitty...

Thanks for stopping by!  I'll be sharing my other cards soon!
