You may be saying, "Hey where is the Halloween card?", well there is a very good reason for me to be skipping ahead to Christmas for the day. I’m beyond excited to be guest designing for My Favorite Things this month! It’s such an honor to be invited to join this amazingly talented group of stampers in showcasing all of the fun and fabulous new holiday goodies from the October release. For my card today I have the sweet as can be Nice List Pure Innocence. I am a long time fan of these darling stamps so I knew she would be the first one getting on a card. Because I wanted the sentiment to have a big impact as well, I grabbed the Merry Christmas Greeting, masked off Nice List with some post it tape, then stamped it right next to her overlapping a bit at the top of her list. While the mask was still in place I grabbed some green ink and quickly sponged some onto the bottom corner just to help ground her in place. Once the post it tape is removed this creates the illusion of her standing in front of a large sign. Then all I had to do was grab my new favorite die, the A2 Stitched Rectangle Stax set 1, to cut it all out and pop it on a card base. I LOVE the super narrow border the largest rectangle creates on an A2 card and I seriously can't stop using it!
Now if you head on over to the MFT blog you will find a bonus second card that I've created as well. ;)
Thanks so much for stopping by today!
