I was inspired by Sue Hastead's card. Love the layout and how she has the girl looking through the heart.

Well here I am again entering my last card for MFT Card Design Superstar. I wasn't intending on entering the color virtuoso challenge after seeing all the spectacular entries. I don't think I stand a chance in that category. However I still wanted to complete this card because the idea was still in my head and I love to watercolor. As you can see from my entry I'm no expert, I'm barely a beginner at best, but I do enjoy it. I hate to have this card just sitting here and not putting in something in each category so I'm gonna give it a go!</p><p><br /></p><p>Materials used:</p><p>MFT - Lets Stick Together</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKQLbv064dq3Unu1NSHfgTMLAS7D-zBI7SMahLQUbkRSTkFSQVtdfQx8TU-7ep1biPSoQkDQ2hwfQwnc7_EXs6ODloh24HWNgRfYSmeS_chVzwagTYg7gnZpyBpFPGp4xaaPj3sRf7NW2z/s1024/20200919_170400_wm.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="576" data-original-width="1024" height="360" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKQLbv064dq3Unu1NSHfgTMLAS7D-zBI7SMahLQUbkRSTkFSQVtdfQx8TU-7ep1biPSoQkDQ2hwfQwnc7_EXs6ODloh24HWNgRfYSmeS_chVzwagTYg7gnZpyBpFPGp4xaaPj3sRf7NW2z/w640-h360/20200919_170400_wm.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p>I used Daniel Smith watercolors to paint up this scene.

I'm back with my next creation for MFT's Card Design Superstar. Today I decided to work on innovation master. Last year I entered with a chibi lights card and once again I'm back to the chibi lights, I have no idea why since they are kind of a pain to work with, atleast for me they are! So I had this idea to use the MFT dienamics meet in the middle to activate the chibi lights instead of the regular pressing down. I also wanted to make a couple of presents move to make it look as though my yeti was bursting through the gifts (not sure if I achieved that look.lol). So below you'll find a little on my process.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWldHkVyGycO0_vAuHCAEI4i9-TCWUHeeeyALsUqFGGAfMde_k9gKbNFPvT4P9dnspxDRonKMPXsQU5nK-Vo_u-IRQEayV_U2FdwvHkWZhpzAYmyFC2ZMiPfPw0mRwCDmzQmblYBhbzlzJ/s1023/20200914_230953_wm.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1023" data-original-width="1023" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWldHkVyGycO0_vAuHCAEI4i9-TCWUHeeeyALsUqFGGAfMde_k9gKbNFPvT4P9dnspxDRonKMPXsQU5nK-Vo_u-IRQEayV_U2FdwvHkWZhpzAYmyFC2ZMiPfPw0mRwCDmzQmblYBhbzlzJ/w640-h640/20200914_230953_wm.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Materials used</p><p>MFT - Beast Friends, Jingle all the way (presents)</p><p>MFT - Meet in the middle, Starry circle</p><p>chibi lights, copper tape</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYXP_r2JaNyjZzBk1glyhSbrYUSWga8NrEsZ83pZcpxR128OegF3Tq7rDQVdg-ockosqyOAocVL0ioAMrAixb6LGNBrWOfICKiMb3jpVuao2DGgmjQAGQWTfRcKpPW2Peo0lFfFqk5cCMd/s2048/20200914_160614.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="2048" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYXP_r2JaNyjZzBk1glyhSbrYUSWga8NrEsZ83pZcpxR128OegF3Tq7rDQVdg-ockosqyOAocVL0ioAMrAixb6LGNBrWOfICKiMb3jpVuao2DGgmjQAGQWTfRcKpPW2Peo0lFfFqk5cCMd/s320/20200914_160614.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p>While assembling this card I decided that the my pull tab would be going up instead of the bottom of the card because I wanted the presents to pull away from my yeti not towards him.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOTQTDtbWWqGALZyna_UxuOB_Yy6CPbr3ckQ-wJFYhGopLik6mlsQrMlUGYpeqEdnX73rY5C2SNDyIBATozNv_VlzmEYNlbl09edmmQhyphenhyphenqi9Gmk13sJodt_tmf53EYA8iIpQjY1DJcZH2J/s2048/20200914_160942.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="2048" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOTQTDtbWWqGALZyna_UxuOB_Yy6CPbr3ckQ-wJFYhGopLik6mlsQrMlUGYpeqEdnX73rY5C2SNDyIBATozNv_VlzmEYNlbl09edmmQhyphenhyphenqi9Gmk13sJodt_tmf53EYA8iIpQjY1DJcZH2J/s320/20200914_160942.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p>I put the copper tape around my pull tab at where I wanted it to stop on the card to make the connections for the lights. I then used score tape to adhere my battery to the top of that copper line, and put together my circuit. While testing it I ran into some problems, it wasn't making a strong enough contact between the pull tab and the circuit. First I tried layering the copper tape to lift it higher so that it would touch the pull tab better, this didn't help. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4rS92TNtea6dDeUm5tFS1_S43kFyRZg9zte0m5mTPTnos-y8Zu1D1lc8H5eNcbZ6-R1rMcg5hmk956tgQS40Ol9WHd-3JBt6omxa8AxPVC8eicTtRZZCnrG5iRix5sFdKrIfMGE9lJLBo/s2048/20200914_185856.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="2048" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4rS92TNtea6dDeUm5tFS1_S43kFyRZg9zte0m5mTPTnos-y8Zu1D1lc8H5eNcbZ6-R1rMcg5hmk956tgQS40Ol9WHd-3JBt6omxa8AxPVC8eicTtRZZCnrG5iRix5sFdKrIfMGE9lJLBo/s320/20200914_185856.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p>I solved this by placing my broken earth magnet to the back so when the battery runs over the magnet pulls it towards it making a stronger connection.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihQFRT3fa33PLpsZMqE6adC91fetQniGnKWxux4SbKDH-9q9irR1VCmTKlvIzmpPChx5cfUrzm7cN_f_3FLC_3UZyKkfjf5l-O3udP3PLU_Tmwmwgcq432gDX0HD7e7Z3yixl4Z73F_2o6/s1023/20200914_230607_wm.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1023" data-original-width="1023" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihQFRT3fa33PLpsZMqE6adC91fetQniGnKWxux4SbKDH-9q9irR1VCmTKlvIzmpPChx5cfUrzm7cN_f_3FLC_3UZyKkfjf5l-O3udP3PLU_Tmwmwgcq432gDX0HD7e7Z3yixl4Z73F_2o6/w640-h640/20200914_230607_wm.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p>Colored with copic markers, and distress oxides for the background sky.

Today's card is for the Lawnfantics challenge blog which is a sketch challenge. I love sketch challenges because one of the hardest things for me as a card maker is deciding where to place things.<br />
<br />
So what went wrong with this card, well several things. first I wish I would've thought to do my embossing before I added the acetate! Thats right unfortunately this warped my acetate not sure if you can tell. Next while I did put down some powder on the acetate to prevent my sequins from sticking this didn't really help so it's not to much of a shaker card. Finally my wish tag I made every effort to get this cut out without cutting off the top part of the h but it still got off!!<br />
<br />
Anyway here is my card for the challenge, hope you like it. All in all I'm still happy with it!<br />

I colored this little guy and the background with copic makers. My original intentions had been to create a daytime scene but it turned into dusk.lol</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I was also going to add a sentiment to the front but I liked it just the way it was and sometimes less is more right?!</div>

It's been a long time since I've been on here, but today I'm back with this mermaid pop- up birthday card. Since I very rarely make boy's cards I geared this one a little more towards boys although I'd like to think of it more as unisex since it would make a great card for anyone.<br />

Today's challenge is all about being thankful. So I'd like to thank Kitty Bee Designs for having me on their design team. They are an awesome group of ladies! Unfortunately my time with the team has come to an end. I've recently gone back to work and with that and other things in life I'm finding it difficult to add in some crafting time. I honestly don't know how some of you ladies do it!<br />
<br />
I'd also like to thank our sponsors for this challenge <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/SasayakiGlitter">Sasayaki Glitter</a> and <a href="http://lemonshortbread.etsy.com/">Lemon Shortbread</a>.<br />

For my spotlight today I'm using <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/94527674/iheart-you-digi-stamp?ref=shop_home_active_82">iHeart You</a>. This cute little guy goes perfect on an old fashioned to go bag! Remember when asking for a take out bag was asking for a doggy bag?! I wanted to keep this bag pretty simple so I wouldn't take away from anything by adding layers and layers to it. I fun flocked the dog bone to add a little fun to it!<br />

For my mid-inspiration post today I have decided to use images from both of our sponsors to create these shaker bookmarks, a perfect non sugary treat to add to those goodie bags! Usually I have a complete list of the copic colors I've used, but I've found that going back to work after 13 years of being a stay at home mom, I barely have time to craft let alone keep track of the markers I've used!lol So today will be a quick post. <br />
<br />
I'd like to give a special thanks to <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/StarStampz">Star Stampz</a> and <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/theeastwind">The East Wind</a> for sponsoring us in this challenge. They both make so many fabulous images!<br />

For my spotlight today I've created a gift bow. The bow is an SVG cut from Sandra's Scrapshop and comes with a card base which I have not added. I'm using the ever so cute <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/201343278/narwhal-love-ii-digital-stamp?ref=shop_home_active_26">Narwhal Love II</a>. I wanted to paint him in space colors and had the perfect fish in space paper to go with it.<br />

To make Narwhal with galaxy skin I printed her out on some bristol paper. I then went over the outline with my versamark watermark pen and heat embossed her in gold. Then I used Zig clean color real brush markers black, purple, deep violet, blue, and cobalt blue. I randomly marked Narwhal up leaving white space here and there for the color to flow into. Next just add water to a brush and let it flow on, its amazing how the colors come together. After letting it dry I flicked Tim Holtz picket fence paint on with a splatter brush, and with a white gel pen I added a few more dots and some stars.</div>

Yay, it's blog hop time! There's so many new adorable images at the Kitty Bee Designs etsy store to chose from! For my project on this hope I've chosen to use the oh so cute and versatile <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/547928208/unicorn-panda-digital-stamp?ref=shop_home_active_5">Unicorn Panda</a>. While it is halloween and this image would go perfect on a halloween card or treat bag, I simply can always use a good birthday card!<br />

First I took a piece of scrap cardstock I had and Placing an old gift card that I had lying cut it down to 4" x 7". Next I scored it at 3" then around I marked where I wanted the cuts that again at 3" from that score line. would hold the card in place. I used an xacto knife and metal ruler to cut these slits. I then used my PPP stitched borders to the top fold over a little more fancy.</div>

Finally I folded my fancy edge down and marked where I wanted my half moon to go to help keep the holder shut. My half moon is not perfect drew and cut this by hand using an xacto knife. I know they make punches for this kind of tab but I don't have one, if you have one feel free to use yours!<br />

Today I wanted to do something a little different and create a gift tag instead of a card. I decided since this little bunny was having a delicious shave ice during the hot summer, the sentiment should match.<br />
<br />
I haven't used my fun flock in a long time so decided it was time to bust it out! Unfortunately its been so long I forgot that its a good idea to color your image first to cover up any holes that the fun flock doesn't cover, so my bunny is a little splotchy.<br />

For my spotlight for this month I'm using Narwhal again. I love pink and orange together so wanted to do a bit of different coloring on him/her. I used the copic airbrush to create my multi colored background trying to give it a koi fish look.<br />

For my mid-inspiration this week I've chosen <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/270025970/1-digital-mermaid-coloring-page?ref=shop_home_active_43">Mermaid coloring page</a> from <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/SweetEscapeDigis">Sweet Escape</a>. I do cards so much that I decided to do this on a box instead that can be used as a little box to hold treasures in or a gift box. I normally write down what copics I used but so much coloring went into this that lets just face it, I was too lazy to write down! I like to shout out a big thank you to this aloha friday challenge sponsors!<br />

I used the copic airbrush to achieve the background but first punched out a 1" circle out of post it tape to mask my Earth. Creating a Galaxy/night sky background is incredibly easy to do and a lot of fun you just pick the colors you want to use and blotch it everywhere!<br />
