SFYTT July 2012 Revisited

I was inspired to use the camera and filmstrip for this monthly challenge. I am happy with how it turned out. I ink MFT's Little Shutterbug with Memento ink and stamped the image on neenah solar white. She is paperpieced and colored with copics. The DP is from echo park and called Happy Days. I also used SU cs: black and River Rock. The camera circles are cut from nesties and raised with a "wobble." The crystal "flash" is colored with copic marker R29. The camera and filmsrip are from MFT. Fishtail flags are used inside and the small circle is from the camera die.

I used some of the same markers for this card as for my other sketch 82 entry: Her skin is from E50, E00, E11, R20 and R00. Her hair is E13, E15, E39 and E59. Her hair clip is spica glitter pen in red.  Her camera is C1, C3, C5 and C7.  She is outlined in BG70.

Welcome Tilda

Thanks for taking a look at my first time inking up a Magnolia Stamp. This image is Princess Welcome Tilda. I used the MFTWSC82 again and the same DP: BoBunny Little Miss. Cardstock is SU: River Rock and Artichoke and retired Gauva. Images are stamped with Memento on neenah solar white.  Dies used are MFT's fishtail flags, mini tabs,  and rolled royal rose. Inside I used a retired SU heart punch. The sentiments come from the MFT set: Love You With All My Heart and PI All Occasion Sentiments. Dazzling Details (glitter stickles from SU) is added to the tips of the flower petals.

Most of the copics are the same at my first sketch 82. (I liked these combinations and they were all on my worktable!) Her skin is E000, E00, E01, E02, R20 and R00. Her hair is Y21, YR23, E35. Her crown is Y15, YR23 and YR24. Her lace is E40 and E41. The pink is from RV21, RV23, and RV25. The peach is from YR61, R20, R02 and R22.

MFTWSC #82

It's Wednesday again - was busy today and almost forgot it was time for a new challenge. Squeezed some coloring in after taking my DH to the eye doctor and before the next round of company arrived.
Isn't she too cute? This is MFT's "Heart Stripes" that I bought on my last trip to the shop and I used some new BoBunny paper: "Little Miss" that I picked up at Deb's shop yesterday. I had fun; it's not my usual color combinations. The cs is neenah and SU: Chocolate Chip. The ink is Memento. MFT dies are used: Fishtail and Mini Tabs.

I used the following copics to color her skin: E000, E00, E01 and R20. Her hair is E13 and Y21 (over all), E35 and E37. The pink in her outfit is from RV21, RV23 and RV25. The greens are YG03, YG25, and YG63. Her peach jumper is YR61, R20, R02 and a touch of R22. She is outlined in E50. The grass and gound is G40 over Y28 with YG93 and YG95 for grass.

The Sun is an older Sizzix original die. The sun has been blended with Distress Ink: Old Paper. The inside of the sun is covered with Stickles Distress: Scattered Straw. Several MFT dies are used: the wave and wonky borders and the image is stamped on the new rounded banner.

Loralie Mermaid

My sister left this morning and I decided to take some time to ink up a Loralie stamp that I haven't used yet; I really like the way she turned out. She is stamped on neenah with black memento, colored with copics and fussy cut. (I cut through her arm at the top of her glove to reach inside that area.)  The dp is imaginisce and the cs is SU: Razzleberry and Melon. I used MFT die: mini scallop border and wave. The sentiment inside is a retired SU stamp as are the pearls.
Her skin is colored with E50, E00, E11, R20 and R00. Her hair is E33, E35, E37. Her lips are RV63 and RV66. Her eyelids are E21 and spica "Sand."

MFTWSC81

I am so excited. I just applied to take two copic certification classes beging offered in Orlando this September. Keep your fingers crossed that my applications will be accepted.

 I didn't color for this week's MFT challenge. The cs is from SU: crumb, vanilla and expresso. The dp is from My Mind's Eye Lost and Found:" Breeze." I inked up an image from MFT and called "Just My Type." The image is stamped and edges are blended with distress ink: "Vintage Photo;" then clear embossed and cut with the matching MFT typewrite die. The sentiments are popped up at the top with dimensionls. Other dies that are used from MFT are the large scallop border and Fish Tail Flags. The edge of the card is cut with a HOltz On - the - Edge die: " File Tabs." The brad is from my stash and the pearls and seam binding ribbon is from SU: "Baja."
