Summer School 2018: Ombre

Ombre is such a beautiful look on cards. I love using it with embossing and Stencil Brushes. I embossed the background and used brushes to add color on the panel. I love the look and how it turned out. Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Supplies: MFT Brushstroke expressions, MFT Roses All Over background, White EP,  Stencil Brushes.  

Summer School 2018: Rainbow

I love emboss resist! I embossed the MFT Stamp Set- Balloon Strings on a white CS panel and  applied Distress Inks using Stencil Brushes over the top.  I love how bright it turned out. Thanks for looking! Have a great day!

Summer School 2018: Visual Triangle

This lesson is full of all my favorite things! I love the visual triangle (I have used this rule for years). I love to place things in groups of 3.  I love stencils and stencil brushes, I used them to create the light gray background. I used another one of my MFT card kits- Plentiful Petals. Thanks for stopping by!

Supplies: All MFT- Plentiful Petals, Stax Pierced Fishtail Flag Dies, Essential Sentimets, White EP.

Summer School 2018- Focal Point

Our girls started back to school this week, so it seems a little funny for me to start "Summer School." It has been fun to play with a technique and use what ever supplies I want. So much fun! Today I pulled out one of my MFT card kits that is all in it's original box, so I dusted it off. I love the flowers in this set, so many possibilities to use with watercolor, colored pencils, or Copics. I started by stamping the flowers in VersaFine Black ink and embossed the flowers on a white card panel. I used the coordinating die to cut out the focal flower and pop it up with fun foam.   

Supplies: MFT Essential Sentiments & Fancy Flower Card kit, Copic Marker, Versa Fine Black, Clear EP. 

Summer School 2018- Monochromatic

WOW! Once again it has been a while since my last post. I love to think/dream that life is going to slow down......I am at the age that I know that is NOT going to happen.

I love the MFT Summer School and I love to watch stamping videos. Thank you MFT for the inspiration! I used the new MFT Happy Birthday Block and Sassy Pants Birthday Greetings. I am obsessed with stencil brushes, I used them on a white panel to blend Summer Splash, Blue Raspberry, and Tropical Teal. I then cut the panel with the Happy Birthday Block die and popped it up on my card base. Finally, I embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder.

I hope you enjoy the MFT Summer School and find some inspiration, too.
