MFT August Card Kit Day 2...

Hello there!  We are back today with another day of cards to share, using products from the new August Card Kit from MFT.  

For this card, I did a watercolor wash and then matted it with black card stock.  I added the stitched white flower die cuts from the kit to the front of the panel.  The "thanks" die you see is part of the new "many thanks" freebie with purchase.  I cut the die out of some black glitter paper.  I finished the card off with some black pearl centers for the flowers.

August MFT Card Kit Day 1....

Stopping in today with a card using the new stamps, dies and paper from the August MFT Card Kit called Sensational Stitched Flowers....



The kit includes lots of adorable stitched dies all wired together.  I saw them and instantly thought....emboss!  I grabbed a piece of kraft from the kit and embossed with the stitched dies all in one pass.  Then I added the kraft panel to the Blu Raspberry card base.  The kit also comes with vellum, embossing powder and an adorable stamp set full of sentiments.  I was able to make a little vellum banner with the "smile" sentiment and then added strips of card stock, included in the kit, for few pops of color.

C9 Birthday Bash Blog Hop...

I am so glad you are stopping in today!  It's a fun day over at Concord & 9th!  Its another day of the Birthday Bash Blog Hop!  I have a couple of cards to share today and there are prizes!

First up is my card using the set Pop Art Pineapple (all supplies linked below)...



I did a very simple watercolor wash with my Peerless watercolors.  Then added that adorable Pineapple stamp and sentiment over some silver thread.  To finish the card off, I added in some clear raindrops.  

This next card showcases the set called Tree Hugs.  I am from Colorado and my favorite tree is an Aspen.  So when I first saw this set, I knew I had to have it.

This is a simple, one layer card.  I simply stamped the trees and then the heart and sentiment.  I added in some red hearts and the colored in the background and trees with some Pebbles Chalks.  Super easy!



Now for the prize!  Leave a comment here for your chance to win a $20 gift card to Concord & 9th.  Comments will close Monday, August 22nd at 12pm CST.  Head on over to Concord & 9th to check out all the details for their Birthday Bash!  Thanks so much to Greg and Angie for having me along on the hop!

Hope you all have a great day!

PTI Release in Review...

I have a few more projects to share today for the August Papertrey Ink Release in Review.  This has been such a fun release and definitely has me in the mood for fall.

First up, a new card using the set called New Every Morning....



This next card showcases the new set called Stylized Autumn....



I made a valentines card out of the new set called What the Doodle: Tea Time and Inspired: Blessed.



This fun die from Paper Clippings: Thankful for You looks great with a little watercolor....



Maile has a new stamp set and dies that are so much fun, called Fancy Foliage.  I used the die to create a faux embossed look and then added in a sentiment layered on vellum.



This new set called Spooky Smiles is so much fun.  I did a candy corn watercolor wash in the background and then added in a simple image and sentiment on top.



This last one uses a beautiful sentiment from Lucky Break.  I heat embossed it with copper embossing powder.  I added in pumpkins from Autumn Pumpkins and wheat from Give Thanks.



So that is it for me today.  I hope you have enjoyed my August release projects!  Head on over to Nichole's blog to see more.  Thanks so much for coming by!

Halloween Stitching Fun...

Today we are showcasing the adorable, new Stitching Dies from PTI.  I have a fun little Halloween project to share today....a halloween banner!



I have taken 4 of the new dies, the ghost, the bats, the candy corn and the moon, along with the previously released Sew Stylish Alphabet 1 Dies and created an easy Burlap banner. 

These dies create the most easy way to stitch and create shapes (especially for those of us who do not sew!).  I cut these little burlap panels and the stitching was super simple.  

To tie the whole thing together, I just added in some black twine and then attached each banner to the twine with the mini black clothespins.  So easy!

Hope you have enjoyed today's project!  Nichole's blog will have lots more stitched projects to see.  Stayed tuned for the release in review tomorrow!  Thanks for stopping in!
