MFT Stamps | March Release

March 7, 2023

Hello crafty friends! The MFT March Release is now available HERE!

I have one last project to share with you today using products from this gorgeous release. My card today features the new and adorable SY Unforgettable Birthday Stamp Set and coordinating dies. I also used a cute little birthday/party hat from the new YUZU Presents and Cupcakes Set.

I stamped all of my images onto a sheet of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Copic Markers. I then used the coordinating die sets to cut them out.

Copic Colors Used:

  • Elephant: W00, W1, W3
  • Mouse: 0, C00, C1, C3
  • Teal: G000, G00, BG34, BG18
  • Pinks: RV52, RV55, RV66
  • Purples: V01, V12, V15, V17

For my card background, I trimmed another piece of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock to 4.25″ x 5.5″ and placed two separate strips of masking tape horizontally across my card to mask off an area for ink blending. I then blended a mix of Salvaged Patina, Kitsch Flamingo, and Wilted Violet Distress Oxide Inks to create a fun background sky. I used this same blend for an earlier card this past week that you can check out below. With my masking tape still in place, I added some water spatters to this area for added texture, blotted it dry with a paper towel, and then added some diluted opaque white Copic paint spatters for some extra interest. I removed my tape, allowed it to dry, and then die cut this panel with the largest die from the A2 Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-namics Set 2. Next, I stamped my sentiment and attached this panel to my A2 sized, top-folding card base. Lastly, I adhered my images with some 3D Foam Adhesive Tape for a pop of dimension.

    Your final project is just as cute as the rest of them. I grinned big when I saw that balloon carrying the elephant. So fun. Great colors! Great card. Thanks so much for all you do Rachel.
