Paper Playhouse: January 2013

Welcome to day four of seven fabulous days of MFT teasers!

Today is all about Doodle Garden and I've created a fun Easter card using Doodle Garden Hunny Bunny. Isn't she sweet with her little bunny ears!?!

I started with a Sweet Tooth card base then used the new Woven Basket Die-namics to cut out the Kraft basket. All the patterned papers are from the My Mind's Eye Dwell collection. I used the large egg from Easter Elements Die-namics to cut out the three patterned eggs then added a bow to the basket using Blossom twine.

I used the Sentiment Strips Die-namics to cut out the Sweet Tooth flag then stamped the sentiment using Black Licorice Premium Dye Ink.

I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo Black onto X-Press It Blending Card and coloured her with copic markers. I need to work on hair and facial features...sigh. I used the Fresh Cut Grass Die-namics to cut out the grassy strip to anchor everything, then I mounted her on foam tape for a little dimension.

On the inside I used the Insert It - 3x4 Notebook Paper Die-namics to cut out the Kraft paper, then stamped another sentiment from Doodle Garden Hunny Bunny. The little white bunny is part of the Woven Basket Die-namics.

Welcome to day three of seven fabulous days of MFT teasers!

I've gone a little country today and created two western themed cards. In this first card I used the new Inspired by the Wild Wild West stamp set.

I started with a Whip Cream card base, then added a layer of Kraft. The sentiment is stamped onto Natural cardstock then I coloured it with copic markers. The images in the Inspired By line have the shading built into them so they're super easy to colour, although I did use a ton of markers...sorry! I didn't do any blending though, only shading according to the image.

I pictured this cowboy riding in the background with a fence in the foreground so I used the new Barbed Wire Fence Die-namics to cut out the fence from Hot Fudge (for the posts) and Steel Grey (for the wire). I wanted the wire to have a bit of shine though so I coloured over it with my Sakura Gelly Roll glitter pen.

For the Howdy sentiment I used the previously released Howdy Frames Die-namics to cut out the arrow then attached it with two brads.

On the inside I used the new Western Sentiments to turn this into a get well / feel better card. The sentiment was stamped with Kraft Premium Dye Ink.

**********

I've used the new Triple Scoop set for this month, Western Sentiments, for my second card today. In case you don't already know, the Triple Scoop set changes with each release and you'll receive it FREE with a qualifying $60 order. Yay!

I used DS85 for the layout and kept everything pretty simple to let the sentiment shine. I started with a card base of Whip Cream cardstock then added a layer of Kraft. I chose starry patterned paper from the October Afternoon Campfire collection.

For the sentiment, I inked the top half with Black Licorice Premium Dye Ink and the bottom half with Kraft Premium Dye Ink, then stamped it onto Whip Cream card stock.

For the accents I used the Fishtail Flags STAX Die-namics to cut out the Wild Cherry flag, then I used the new Button Border Die-namics to cut out the button accents from patterned paper. I added some Hemp Cord to tie up the buttons.
