MFT Stamps | June Release Countdown – Halfway There!

MFT Stamps | June Release Countdown – Halfway There!

June 6, 2020

Hello friends! We’re halfway until the big day! There are only 3 more days left until the June Release from My Favorite Things becomes available! My card today features the new Sunny Vibes Stamp Set. I created a single-layer slimline card featuring the cute images from the set to share with you today.

To start, I first trimmed a piece of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock to 3.5″ x 8.5″. I then used some Gina K. Designs Magic Masking Sheets to use a masking technique to layer my images so that they appeared to have some dimension to them. I stamped all of my images with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and used Copic Markers to color everything.

Copic Colors Used:

  • Sand: E30, E31, E33, E35
  • Bunny: W00, W0, W2, W4
  • Yellows: Y11, Y13, Y15, V12
  • Greens: G20, G21, YG17, YG67
  • Umbrella: BG70, BG72, BG75, BG78
  • Pink Sky: RV0000, RV000, RV00, RV02
  • Light Browns: E50, E51, E53, E55
  • Teals: BG10, B11, BG13, BG49
  • Dark Gray/Black: W2, W4, W6, W8

Once I was finished coloring everything, I then trimmed my card down to 8.25″ x 3.25″. Next, I used some white gel pen to add some accents to my card and then stamped my sentiment with black ink onto the top left corner. Lastly, I layered my card with both white and Summer Splash Prestige Card Stock.

    Love tha skinny card! It gives you room to play and keeps it from becoming crowded. A great design idea! Thanks for sharing your talent.

    Room to have fun with your beach scene.

      Yes! 🥰 That’s the thing that I love most about slimline cards. They allow you the room to use more images without looking too overcrowded. 🙂

    Love seeing so many slim line cards. This scene is perfect for just that size. Critters can’t be cuter and I love that darling little car… Nicely done.

  • Karen Green June 6, 2020 at 6:14 PM

    I love the coloring and all of the critters. I also like the dimensions of the card. It’s nice to change things up a bit.

    I enjoy that you made a slim line card! I know they are getting popular and I am going to start using them some as well. I really appreciate your list of Copic color combinations! Thanks so much for sharing your work.

    Love this card, Rachel. When I first looked at it, I thought the background was a stamp. It looks wonderful. I love the colors. Your little critters look so happy to be having a fun day at the shore. Your coloring looks wonderful and I also really appreciate your sharing your Copic colors. Helps me so much! Thanks for sharing your creativity and talent. Hugs!
