MFT Stamps • August Card Kit • Countdown Day 1

29.08.2022

Happy new week everyone,

today we're introducing the Sending Sunflowers Card Kit which will be available tomorrow, August 30th at 10 am EDT.

Sunflowers are so pretty and can make anyone happy, right?! Why not sending a bunch of these beauties along with some heartfelt greetings. The products in this kit can be easily combined with each other and here is the card I came up with. For my bouquet in a vase, I used the Sunflower Wreath Die-namics and Farmhouse Foundations Die-namics.

First, I started off with a white A2 card base. I did some soft ink blending in the background using Tumbled Glass and Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide Ink. I also added some small ink splatters with a brush. I stamped one of the Thoughtful Greetings in VersaFine Onyx Black at the top of the card. On the bottom, I adhered a strip of red Falling for Houndstooth Paper to mimic a tablecloth.

I applied some Mustard Seed and Wild Honey Distress Oxide Ink to white cardstock to create two tones of yellow and let it dry. I die cut the sunflowers from my self-made yellow cardstock and the inner pieces from Milk Chocolate Card Stock. The leaves and stems were done in Sour Apple and Field Day Card Stock.

For the vase, I tried to create a transparent glass look by die cutting it from Sno Cone Card Stock and a piece of acetate which I layered on top. I inked the edges of the light blue cardstock with Salvaged Patina and carefully added a thin line of liquid glue to attach the acetate. I made sure to leave the top of the vase open so I could insert the flower stems. To be honest, it took me a while but it was worth it.

Finally, I assembled the sunflowers and build a bouquet by adding the leaves here and there.

Here's another peek at the August Card Kit:
