MFT Stamps • June Release Countdown Day 5

Hi peeps,

today we're kicking off the countdown to the My Favorite Things June Release. All the new products will be available on Tuesday, June 7th at 10 am EDT.

I picked the new Stacey Yacula stamp set Reel-y Great Day for my first card which would be perfect for a man's birthday.

First, I did some ink blending and stenciling to create a little pond scene. Therefore I used Distress Oxide Inks and the previously released Scene Stencil - Rolling Hills. For the water of the pond, I masked off the background and blended on Broken China, Speckled Egg and Tumbled Glass ink. Then I covered the pond with the mask and blended together Peacock Feathers, Salvaged Patina, Cracked Pistachio, Antique Linen, Bundled Sage and Rustic Wilderness. Finally, I added ink splatters with a paint brush and let it dry. 

Next, I used the two little wave dies from the Better Together Die-namics set at the bottom of the pond. I cut out the panel with the largest of the A2 Stitched Rectangle STAX Set 2 Die-namics and adhered it to a white A2 card base.

I stamped the images, colored them with Copic markers and used the coordinating Reel-y Great Day Die-namics to cut everthing out. The sentiment was stamped in VersaMark Ink onto a black fishtail banner and I heat embossed it with white embossing powder. I finished off the card by adhering the images and sentiment banner using liquid glue.
