MFT Sketch 494 - Happy Birthday


I'm back with a card for the current MFT Sketch challenge.

I used the same stamp as last week, Fresh Cut Flowers, but masked off the large rose for a smaller focal point image.

The stamp was inked with MFT Biscotti hybrid ink and then colored with two Copic markers.  I used two 
Prismacolor pencils to add some shading.  All of the supplies are listed below.

I had a difficult time getting a good picture this card, and I think it's much prettier in person.  Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day.

MFT Sketch 493 - Hello There

Hello, and thanks for stopping by to take a closer look at my card for the current MFT Sketch Challenge.

Since my last MFT Sketch Challenge card posted on May 18th, I learned that Christina Hor has suspended her Cards for Little Hearts card drives for the remainder of 2020.  I certainly understand her decision to do so.  Hopefully I'll find another group that will accept the 30 kid's winter theme cards that I have completed since January, all inspired by the weekly MFT challenges.

Since I hadn't made a card for a few weeks, I needed to make something quick and simple to get back in the grove of it all.  My card didn't turn out as I had envisioned, but I'm sure the friend I plan to send it to will be happy to receive a bit of happy mail in any case.

I used  the MFT Drifts and Hills stencil, positioned vertically on the card stock, and Distress Ink applied with a blending brush for the wavy lines/sections on the sketch.  The pretty Fresh Cut Flowers stamp is the focal point.  All of the supplies are listed below.

Have a great day!
