My Favorite Things - Wednesday Sketch Challenge #552

Ready for another sketch challenge with My Favorite Things?   Will you be the lucky winner with your entry?  Let's find out and start with my inspiration card and a look at the sketch you are working with.

To create my card I used the Double Stitched Edge Die-namics and die cut Chantilly Cream Prestige Cardstock in a size a little under A2 and this was adhered to a full size A2 white panel.   Grabbing a smaller die-namic from the same set I die cut a piece of pattern paper from the Petite Gingham 6 x 6 Paper Pad.   This was backed with white craft foam and applied to the corner of the larger panel.

I used the same smaller die-namic and die cut a piece of white cardstock and then used the Stitched Rolling Clouds Edge Die-namics to create both the clouds and the grass.  I blended the grass panel using Prickly Pear Premium Dye Ink.   Both die cuts were then glued in place.

I stamped my images from You Have My Heart and coloured them with Copic markers.   Here are my colours used:-

Skin - E04, E11, E21, E00

Hair - E44, E43, E42, E0000

Dress - B95, B93, B91

Boots and Heart - R04, RV13, RV21

White Shirt - W2, W1

Puppy - E40, E41, E42, E43, W5, W3, W2

A few points were highlighted with a white gel pen then the elements were die cut using the coordinating die-namics and backed with foam tape and applied.

I found some coordinating pink jewel embellishments in my stash and applied them with glue for the finishing touch along with the sentiment which was stamped to die cuts made using the Stitched Sentiment Strips Die-namics and which I trimmed down and applied with foam tape.  Card complete!

Enjoy the process of creating your entry - happy crafting!

My Favorite Things - Color Challenge #163

Hello!  Another fun colour challenge for those of you looking to try and win a $50 gift card at My Favorite Things.  This is Challenge #163 and here is my inspiration card.

I love this colour combination it just makes me ridiculously happy!  I ink blended a panel of white cardstock using My Favorite Things Premium Dye Inks in (from the bottom up) Prickly Pear, Princess Pink and Poppin' Pink.   I used a wet toothbrush to spritz on some water which I blotted up and then used a little watered down Poppin' Pink and spritzed that on to further distress the background but just subtly.  This panel was then die cut using Blueprints 27 Die-namics.

I used the Farm Fence Die-namics and die cut white cardstock for the picket fence which I trimmed to fit and adhered to the background.   I stamped the sentiment from You Have My Heart with Versamark Ink and heat embossed in white.

I stamped the images from You Have My Heart and used Copic markers to colour them and a white gel pen to highlight points.   They were die-cut using the coordinating Die-namics, backed with foam tape and applied to the scene.

To assemble the card I backed the decorative panel with white craft foam and adhered it to an A2 panel cut from a sheet from the Gift Wrap 6 x 6 Paper Pad.   This was all then adhered to my white card base.  I wanted to keep this card super duper sweet and simple and decided to restrain myself from applying any further accents.
