MFT Stamps | June Release Countdown - Day 5

Are you ready for a new MFT Release Countdown?

It's that time of the month again and today it is the first day of previews. The release will be live on June 13th at 10am EST and it is full of sea themed products and much more!

And now, let's literally dive into my first card!

I absolutely loved the Oceans of Fun stamp set as soon as I got my hands on. And I instantly thought of a recent design from Samantha Mann that I would have loved to take as my inspiration.

I firstly started inking an A2 panel with Distress Oxides in Salvaged Patina, Salty Ocean and Wilted Violet. I used blending brushes until I got a good result, then I splattered some water, some Copic Opaque White and some Salty Ocean drops to get just a bit of texture.

While the panel was aside to dry, I stamped all the underwater critters I wanted to feature in the card on some Neenah Smooth Solar White cardstock, using Memento. I then colored them wit the copics listed below the post and I die cut them using coordinating dies.

I took another A2 Smooth White Panel and I die cut the edge using the wavy border die included in the Island Paradise Die-namics: I thought that the wavy look was perfect!

I also decided to use one of the sentiment included in the stamp set, but I wanted to customize the word "OCEAN": I die cut those letters from the Bitty Banner Alphabet and I white heat embossed the rest on some black cardstock. I assembled all the pieces: I attached the white panel over the distressed one, I adhered the critters and the sentiment. To complete the card, I added some sparkling sequins too! And here's the finished result!

Thanks for stopping by, I really hope you will like it. Be sure to check out the MFT blog to see all the other product previews and for even more ideas and inspiration, please visit the My Favorite Things YouTube channel.
