Beary Christmas

I know that it will be here all too soon, I thought I would start making Christmas cards, this is my first one for this year. I am still making cards for the MFT 100 sketches this sketch is number MFTSC97. I used the stamp that was free with the do crafts creativity Mag, released in Australia last month.The DP and card is from some stock that I had. After colouring and layering the image I added Kindy Glitz 3D GLT Crystalina to the fur on the hat.
Stamps: Daisy & Dandelion
Paper: DP & CS from stock

Other: Kikki K - ribbon, glitter brads, nestibilities, copics, Kindy Glitz 3D GLT Crystalina

Pamper Yourself

Here is another card on my way to the 100MFT SKETCHES countdown. This is made for MFTSC98, on SCS. Sketches make card layouts so easy, Thanks to all the ladies who come up with the ideas.
I am amazed that I have had any time for stamping after working so much over the last three weeks. I am now off to pamper myself, I certainly need the rest, maybe I will relax and get some more stamping done. LOL
Stamps: MFT - Time for Bubbly
Paper: DP - Haiku, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie.
Other: Wild Wasbi Ribbon,Nestiblities, copics.

Happy Fathers Day

Happy Fathers Day to all the Dads in Australia.
I think my Hubby had a good day, our daughter remembered and rang from America, they celebrated fathers day earlier this year over there.
We spent the day, with the first of many BBQs' that we will have over the summer, my dear hubby loves his outdoor cooking appliance. What better stamp set to use, than Who's that grilling guy? from MFT. This is the first time I have used this set, so not only did I make a card for my Girl's father, I also made one for my youngest daughter's boyfriend's father. This is the card that Kait chose for her Dad.
It was fairly simple to make, except I couldn't get my steak to look real enough, in the end I inked it in red ink and then re-inked in chocolate chip and coloured the bone with my copics. I paper pieced the apron and coloured the image with my copics. I went I little way back into the files at SCS to find the master list of past sketches and used MFTSC31.
This is the card that she chose for Adam's Dad. The closest I could get to this sketch is MFTSC89, I made this card at 4am this morning and wasn't really following any sketches. I had so many things on my mind and couldn't sleep, thought I would try to relax with some stamping, and was pretty happy with the way they turned out.
Stamps: MFT- Who's that grilling guy?
Paper: Black, red, white cs, stock dp.
Other: nestibilites, copics, scallop & oval punch SU, cuttlebug folder tiny mosaic, paper piercing mat & tool, brads, ribbon - SU, ds tape.


Have a great day.
