My Favorite Things - Friendship & Flowers February Card Kit







The MFT Stamp February card kit 'Friendship & Flowers' is now available for purchase.  If you loved January's Flower Fusion Kit you're going to love this one too!  Here's what I've used in the making of this card:-


This is a 5 3/4 inch square card and I started by preparing my layered panels starting with a 5 3/4 inch white square, then a 5 1/2 inch patterned panel from the Holiday Plaid paper pad and then 3 decreasingly smaller panels created using MFT's cardstock in Cotton Candy, Poppin' Pink and then finally another white panel which I didn't glue down yet.




The floral stencil set has 5 stencils total, but for this design I only used stencils 1, 2, 3 and 5 and with stencil 2 I chose to only ink the trio of dots design.

My ink colours for stencilling are:-

Poppin' Pink by MFT
Cotton Candy by MFT
Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Ink
Field Day by MFT
Limelight by MFT

So I worked through the stencils I was using, softly ink blending, sometimes choosing not to fully ink blend the entire image for a more defused or 'shabby chic' appearance.


Once I was happy I adhered down this final panel.




To finish up, I stamped the sentiment from Essential Messages using Memento Ink in Rich Cocoa and applied the strip with foam tape and to add a little dimension I used Nuvo drops in pink and white to the centre of the flowers and a few scattered elsewhere.

Here's a look at the entire kit but you can as always, purchase components of the kit separately:-
