I finally received my SSS card kit and it is awsome. I used the little sail boat die and cut it out of several of the printed papers in the kit. I also had some wood grain printed paper I used to cut the hull and the staff. I use some of my le plume markers to color the little flags. I chose the piece of paper that was light grey with seagulls on it as a background piece . I had made a stencil to go with my cloud cover up by my favorite things by taking the plastic that is inside the pack of bacon and running the die through my big kick machine. First I made me a sunset and then I use this stencil and some white pigment ink and created my clouds. I did add a little bit of orange and pink to the bottom of the clouds to give it that reflection from the Sun. To make my waves I used MFT making waves die and cut two different shades of blue. I dabbed a little bit of white pigment ink on the tips of the waves just to give them that look that you see at the beach. I cut a piece of vellum to the size of my background and embossed in Ranger liquid platinum embossing powder my sentiment. You can't have an ocean scene without seagulls so I added them with a Multiliner black pen. I used my favorite things blueprint 25 and cut the red cardstock that came with the kit and mounted everything on it and then mounted it to a white card base. I really love how this turned out. Thanks for stopping by come back soon.

Count The Stars
I received my happy mail a couple days ago and wanted to try them out. Thought I'd start with MFT 's Count The Stars.
I got out some Neenah Solar White cardstock and made my card base, then using the MFT Bokeh Builder and Simon Says Stamp ink (doll pink, mint, orange peel) I made my background. Taking some card stock from a Simon Says Stamp card kit and a piece of gold, I die cut it using MFT'S Lucky Stars and Stars and Wishes. The word stars is layered on gold and the sentiment is stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink.

MFT Sketch Challenge 231
Okay what to do? It's time for my favorite thing sketch challenge 231 and I also wanted to use my June Simon Says Stamp car kit.
I use the yellow card stock from the kit to make my card base which I dry embossed with Darice ' s dot background. The green frame was cut using MFTs stitched square frames for white cardstock and colored with copics. The washing tape was put on a piece of card stock and die cut using MFTs blueprints 23. Using MFTS Happy Duo and some black cardstock I cut happy out. Using the leftover white square from cutting my frame out I stamped the sun and the sentiment using Simon Says stamps happy and smile. I added some enamel dots to the dotted background paper and stamped birthday on the washi tape and assembled my card.
