MFTWSC110-Enjoy Your Day

Hey everyone, and happy Wednesday!! That means it is time for another Wednesday Stamp Club challenge from My Favorite Things! It's MY favorite
                                               sketch challenge!


For my card today, I used the new Doodle Garden Springtime Wishes stamp set. I stamped her on X-Press It Blending card, and then cut her out with the Oval Stax Die-namics. She was then layered with Fossil cardstck cut out with the Oval Open Scalloped Die-namics. Under my main image, I used the Fishtail Flags Stax Die-namics to cut my paper panel out of MME Lavender paper pad. I used Bubblegum and Blu Raspberry cardstock on the base, as well as Sweet Tooth. For embellishments, I used some Kraft ribbon, a spiral clip, Michael's brads, and a Bubblegum button with hemp cord tied through it. I used the Fishtail Banner Die-namics. My sketch is flipped, but I love how it turned out.


For the inside, I used more of the same supplies.

  Here are the Die-namics I have used:






We encourage you all to play along, and to enter your card in the weekly draw for a $15 gift voucher to the MFT Boutique. Simply follow the sketch and create a card or other paper creation. You may use any stamps and supplies that you wish. Each week, a keyword is assigned to the sketch.

For my card, I started with a Sweet Tooth base, then layered that with Hot Fudge and Fossil cardstock. My  paper is from the MME Fiddlesticks paper pad, and I used some Cavas Flute Tiles to create some texture. The boots from this set were lightly colored with Copics, then layered with my cardstock colors. I cut my sentiment out with the Sentiment Strips Die-namics, and used the Large Hybrid Heirloom Rose in Banana Split(Bazzil) to embellish it. I also added the new Barbed Wire Fence Die-namics to the base, some hemp cord was tied around my fluted tile, and I used Michael's brads and some spiral clips.

Here are the Die-namics I have used:
