Hi crafting friends.
Today I'm sharing a make using my favourite MFT Christmas set called snow buddies. This will be my first Christmas make, so I guess I had better get cracking to make the rest! Look out for many more Christmas makes coming your way!
Ingredients
- Stamps
- MFT snow buddies stamps
- ink blot shop cable knit background
- MFT - general BB sentiments
- spectrum noir triblend brush markers
- tattered lace dotted simple circle die
- distress oxide inks
- broken china
- Victorian velvet
A simple card today - I stamped the background panel using broken china ink and left is aside to dry, while I coloured my stamped images. I cut out the circle from white cardstock and trimmed one side down so it would look like it was popping off the side of the card.
I cut them out using my scan and cut and positioned them onto the circle background to make a topped. Some of the images are flat and some are popped up on foam pads.
I then cut a strip of blue glitter card and trimmed my back ground panel to me slightly smaller than the 5x7 card.
I decided to balance the colour, I should do the sentiment in pink, so I stamped in Victorian velvet, but found it wasn't bold enough, so I coloured a scrap of white card with the distress oxide and then let it dry, before white heat embossing. I stamped a snow flake too in the same colour ink for a tone on tone look.
I hope you like it as much as I do - I really love the muted non traditional colours!
