Stampin' In Alaska

  I'm joining the sketch and color challenges at MFT with a mixed media birthday card.  I pulled out an older/retired MFT set from 2013 called LJD Pretty Poppies.   The solid poppy images were stamped in Brick Red distress ink on kraft card stock then a black pen used the trace the outline. The border word stamp was used repeatedly on the panel then spritzed with brown walnut stain.

I'm joining the current sketch challenge at My Favorite Things with a clean and simple design.  My card features a retired MFT set called Pretty Poppies.  Perfect for this simple birthday card! I started by making my own circle template and sponged the circles with Tim Holtz distress ink.  The floral images were then stamped using my Misti.  A few sequins and MFT birthday die-namic finishes the card.   I would like to share my card with the following: My Favorite Things Weekly Sketch:  Challenge #467 Word Art Wednesday:  Anything Goes #416- #417   QKR Stampede Challenge:  #376 Anything Goes 

I'm back with Day 2 of Camp Create with My Favorite Things.  Counselor Barbara demonstrated a great emboss resist technique for Day 2.  My card started by stamping poppies from MFT's retired Pretty Poppies set and embossing with white powder.  I water colored the panel with distress inks then applied ink directly around the poppies. I recently ordered the MFT Prayers die-namic and it worked perfectly with this set and sentiment.
