I have a card to share today.   I am playing along with this week's MFT Weekly Sketch Challenge and Sunday Stamps Color Challenge.  


I started with MFT card stock in smooth white, chocolate brown, tropical teal, and banana split.  My card base is 5 x 5 and  chocolate brown.  I inked up the edges using versamark for added depth.  I cut the tropical teal panel using MFT Blueprints 14.  I stamped this panel using MFT Fine Check background stamp using MFT premium tropical teal ink. distressed the edges with versamark to add some shadow and depth.   


I used MFT Pierced Oval Stax to cut the smooth white oval.  I then die cut the fox and the squirrel from Cute Critters die namics using Neenah Solar White card stock and stamped the coordinating image from MFT Cute Critters stamp set  in MFT hybrid licorice black ink.  I colored the fox and the squirrel with copics.  I tucked the fox behind the sentiment strip and popped the squirrel up on top for added dimension.  

Next, I used the smallest of the Vertical Stitched Strips to die cut the banana split strip.  I stamped this panel with MFT diagonal stripe background stamp.  I then die cut a smooth white piece using Fishtail Flags Stax.  I stamped the sentiment from Friends Like Us stamp set in MFT hybrid licorice black ink.   I  finished the card with a few of Verve's Shine Bright Sequin Mix.  

As always thanks so much for stopping by!
