Hello MFT fans! I am super excited to share with you my entry for the MFT Stamps 2021 Card Design Superstar. This card is for the Clean and Simple Genius category.

I started by stamping the image from the Let Your Hair Down stamp set with Memento Tuxedo black ink on some Bristol smooth white card stock. Without removing the stamp set from my stamping tool, I also stamped the image on some masking paper.

Next, I colored the images in with my Copic markers. I fussy-cut the mask and covered the images so that I can work on my simple background.

I sprayed my Watercolor Wash Rectangle 6×6 Stencil with some Pixie Spray, and placed it on my colored image. I used some Pink and Yellow Quick Dry Dye inks with my blending brushes to add the soft color to the background. Once I was happy with the color intensity, I removed the stencil.

I used the Thanks Die-namics (retired) to die-cut the word on the foreground. I die-cut the word two more times and adhered them together with liquid glue for added dimension. I added the foreground with the “thanks” die-cut letters on some A2-size notecard.

To finish my design, I stamped the sentiment on some Milk Chocolate card stock with Versamark ink and sprinkled some white embossing powder. I heat-set the sentiment with my heating tool and used my precision snips to cut it out, then adhered on my card with liquid glue. Here’s another look at the card:

Clean and simple, don’t you agree? I love how this card turned out! I hope I win this year so please wish me luck!

The supplies I used are listed and linked below. Thanks for stopping by today and happy stamping!
