MFT Stamps | June Release Countdown – Only 24 Hours Left!

June 8, 2020

Hello friends! There are only 24 hours left until the June Release from My Favorite Things can be yours! I have a simple card to share with you today that features the new “All the Encouragement” Stamp Set combined with a sweet little pup from the new Birdie Brown “Woof Pack” Set.

I wanted to keep the main focal point on the bold sentiment, so I kept my card rather simple with just one image and a quick blend of Distress Oxide Ink in the background. To start my card, I first diecut a piece of Smooth White Card Stock with one of the rectangles from the A2 Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-namics Set 2. I then lightly blended the center of this panel with some Shaded Lilac Distress Oxide Ink. I added some splatters with water as well as diluted white and purple paints for some slight added interest.

I then stamped my image with black ink onto a scrap of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock and colored it with Copic Markers. I used the coordinating die-namics to cut it out and then set it aside while I finished my card base.

Copic Colors Used:

  • Light Browns: E41, E42, E43, E44
  • Dark Browns: E31, E23, E25, E29
  • Purple: BV000, BV02, BV04

For the base of my card, I trimmed a piece of card stock to 4.25″ x 5.5″ and then added a piece of purple polka dot patterned paper (the same size) from the new Summertime Polka Dots Paper Pad. I then added my stitched ink-blended section to the center of my base and then added both my sentiment and my image with 3D Foam Adhesive Tape.

    I appreciate the way you describe your techniques for getting the background done. I really like the way it turned out and believe I would like to make an attempt at using this technique. This has been a great five days in advance of the MFT release. Thanks so much for sharing all of your inspiration (and especially for sharing all of your Copic combinations)!

    You squeezed out so much color with your distress oxide background complimenting the polka dot paper behind the doggie.

    Awww, isn’t he proud as punch and wants to share! So fun. I adore your background color and splatter. I love the look of a good splatter. I can’t recreate it so save my life, but it sure looks great on others’ cards! 🙂 Thanks for sharing, Rachel. Hugs!
