Are you ready for the MFT February Release? There are only 2 days until the release, which will be live on Tuesday 8th, at 10am EST.
Today the DT is highlighting some circus-themed stuff and this is the card I created.
How fun is this You're the Main Event stamp set?
When I saw this card, I knew I wanted to create something really simple. I was also inspired by one of Audrey Tokach's recent cards for the design.
I firstly took a 4"x5,5" piece of Smooth White cardstock and I stamped the circus, masking it with a Post-it tape (I didn't mask all the smallest flag, I added some white after coloring the background). I masked the panel to ink blend only the upper part. Since I wanted dark vibrant colors, I used Regular Distress Inks, cause the result is quite better. I needed only two colors: Black Soot and Blueprint Sketch. I then splattered some water and I let the panel dry.
I stamped the two main protagonists on a piece of Neenah Solar White cardstock and I colored them using the combos listed below. I also die cut them with coordinating dies.
I stamped the sentiment just below my little scene and I decided to matt my panel with an A2 Smooth White cardstock. I also layered a piece of MSTN Rainbow Love Paper Pad on the left to add some color.
And that's all for today!
