My Favorite Things - Sketch 62

As you will know from my last post, I got some scrummy yummy My Favorite Things stamps for Christmas. I've been after them FOREVER so I was ridiculously excited on Christmas morning and couldn't wait to ink those babies up!

For my first MFT card, I decided to take part in a sketch challenge posted on the MFT forum section of SCS. It was a fab sketch and I had a great time working with it.


I started off by layering some red Core'dinations cardstock onto my square card blank. Onto this I added Basic Grey 'Cupcake' paper, into which I handcut a scalloped edge (I really need a scalloped punch....!). I coloured the MFT image using a mixture of Promarkers and Copics and added this panel on to a 'doctored' rectangular Nestie. I finished the card with Poppicrafts ribbon, adhesive gems and a MFT sentiment. I'm really pleased with how everything turned out as I love all the bright colours!

I'm off to do some blog hopping now, I need to pull my socks up as I've been a useless blogger of late!

Hi Stacey, I really like that stamp too, great card. The ribbon slider you asked about is one of a set of 4 cuttlebug dies. Hope that helps, thanks for stopping by.
