Today begins the MFT Starry Night Card Kit Release previews! The Kit will be available this Tuesday, September 17, at 10am EST. Here’s what’s included in the kit:
I couldn’t wait to get busy with the new Night Sky Color Burst Trio!
I am such a huge fan of watercolor powders! I know a lot of crafters get intimidated, my only advise to that is put some gloves on (no blue fingers needed), and get busy. That’s exactly what I did here. And let me tell you- I made a MESS! I gently tapped the Blueberry and Field Day a few times over watercolor paper that was taped down to a clipboard, then sprayed the paper with shimmer water. I moved my clipboard around in a circular motion a couple of times to get the pigments moving, using paper towels I had handy to soak up any pooling colors. Once I liked where the colors were at, I used my heat tool to dry the panel. Next, I used the included Starry Nights Vertical Die-namics to die-cut the panel twice in a horizontal line. I made a another quick background with the Blueberry and Grape Jelly Color Burst powders, then die-cut a star from it.
I die-cut white card stock and Color Burst panel with a stitched rectangle Stax. I attached the watercolor panel with Scor Tape to a card base, then die-cut an opening in the white card stock with a Stitched Snow Drifts Die-namics. I stamped part of the sentiment onto the bottom half of the white card stock, attached the die-cut star, and adhered both pieces to the card with foam adhesive. I stamped and white heat-embossed the word Star onto Blueberry card stock, die-cut it, and attached it with foam squares onto the star to finish the card.
