MFT Superstar Contest & Inkspirational Challenge #298

Hey everyone.  For today's post, I created a card for the My Favorite Things 2023 CAS Superstar Contest.  While I would love to win [the competition is fierce!], playing along is fun too.

Everything I have from MFT, at this point, is retired.  However, I read the rules, and retired products work so YAY!  I used Greenery Die-namics, Fishtail Frames, and the flowers are from Desert Bouquet [with matching die-namics]

The sentiment was from My Favorite Sentiments, that I stamped and embossed with white, on vellum.  I like my layered CAS card -- Let's hope MFT does too~

-----------------------------------------------

I went on to join in the Inkspirational Challenge; #298 Moodboard.  [My favorite type of challenge!]


When I saw the moodboard, that fuchsia pink jumped right out to me!  Here is my card:

I used a MFT mask, Rectangle Extraordinaire, sponged on 3 lovely colors of ink, removed the mask, and stamped Woodware's, Gardenia, using Versafine Black Ink. [LOVE this stuff!]

The sentiment is from one of Simon Says Sentiment Strips.  I am rather in love with this card.... 😉

Thanks Challenges.  Quite the awesome day - I do love being creative!

Both cards are wonderful! Love all the layers on your first card, each layer has its own personality and work beautifully with each other. Your second card is stunning in color, and so gorgeous with the bold white frame and bold & beautiful colors as a backdrop for your outline bouquet.
