Happy Saturday! Today is doubly happy for me, it's my birthday! So not only do I get to share a fantastic new MFT set with you, I get to spend the day celebrating with my gorgeous husband - bliss!
Today I'm sharing a card made with First Class Friend, the latest in our large stamp and die-namics combo range. I'm always excited for these sets, the mix of sentiments and images gives you unlimited options.
I started with some MME paper - Breeze from Lost & Found Two. The collage look of this paper was perfect to start building my focal layer. I stamped the main sentiment and filled in the open font with stickles. It's a small space - but if you're careful it looks great. I use a small rubber brush to apply stickles, it makes it super easy to get them exactly where you want them.
I stamped small elements from the set in various distress inks, overlapping them randomly. The frame was cut then stamped with the large script stamp from the set - I love this stamp and you'll see more of it from me this month!
Inside I continued stamping small elements over top one another and also used the cute envelope die-cut after sponging it with distress ink. Have a wonderful day, I'll see you tomorrow with one of my favourite sets from this release!
