It’s time to start the countdown to the My Favorite Things September Release! There’s so many cute sneak peeks on the MFT blog today, including this new Birdie Brown Sweater Weather In The Woods stamp set.

It was love at first sight for me when I saw these sweaters! I immediately stamped these friends out and colored them with the following Copic Markers:
- Moose- E41, E43, E44, E47, W5, W3, W1, W00
- Beaver- E41, E43, E44, E47, E49
- Bear- W5,W3, W1, W0, W00, R00, R000
- Sweater Color Combos- Green: YG91, YG95, YG97, YG99; Yellow: Y21, Y23, YR23, E33; Burnt Orange: E47, E09, E07
For the background, I stamped and white heat-embossed the new Knitted Sweater Background (LOVE!) onto watercolor paper. I tapped Fall Green, Golden Sparkler, and Solar Flare Nuvo Shimmer Powders onto the paper, and sprayed with water. Once the panel was dry, I used an A2 Rectangle Frame to cut out the window.

I blended Kraft and Orange Zest ink at the bottom of a card base before attaching the background frame with Scor tape. I die-cut three frames, stacked and glued them, then glued them inside the frame. I stamped the sentiment, then attached the friends with foam squares to finish the card.

Stop by the MFT Blog for more product sneak peeks, and to see what the MFT design family has created. Everything you see this week will be available on Release Day – Tuesday, September 3rd– at 10am EST. Thanks for stopping by!

It’s such a cozy stamp!!
Love the Autumn feel of this card!
Thank you! These are some of my favorite colors
Super cute! Who doesn’t love a beaver in a sweater?!? Love how the background turned out!!! I’ve been afraid to try pigment powders but I like the results you got 🙂
Pigment powders are so fun- but yes, a bit intimidating. I love the shimmer powders because they’re softer in color. A little goes a long way. And I usually use them for coloring background stamps. The Falling leaves Gold Sparkler are really light colors. If you want to pick up a couple to try, I recommend those. And when you get more comfortable, then there’s Ken Oliver Colorbursts. Those are wildly pigmented! I love them. Check out YouTube. There’s great resources on these products. That’s how I learned to use them. ❤️
Adorable card. Love the new background stamp. And the sentiments in this release are really fun.
Such a cute friendship card.
