Are you ready? The August MFT Vault has opened today, and there’s so much to see! You can find all of the new products HERE.

Party Like A Pirate… being a mother of two boys, this stamp set hit HOME! I colored these boys in a “dirty” manner, because my boys were always dirty while playing outside! I was very heavy-handed with E04 Copic marker on the skin areas. I contribute my coloring inspiration to Jessie Banks… I am obsessed with her coloring.
I started by stamping my big pirate. I fussy-cut a mask for him, covered him, and stamped the second pirate. I masked him too, then made the background. The background was ink-blended with a blend of dye inks. I removed the masks, and colored the images with Copic Markers.

I finished the card panel with a heat-embossed sentiment, and attached it to a card base.

Be sure to stop by the MFT Blog to see all of August’s Vault Release products, as well as inspiration from the design team.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Ahhh so amazing! Wow thanks for the shout out! I am finally done my backyard projects and am going to start filming again. Maybe I will pull this set out again after work today:)
Big hugs its a lovely card
Thank you so much, Jessie. I can’t wait to see another video. I admit it- I’m a fan girl. 😍❤️❤️😉
Amazing Angelica! Love this set, it reminds me of my two boys! Great coloring and design!
Thanks, Heather. My boys were always outside, digging and running.
I love these pirates and your coloring is just as good as Jessie Banks.

Such a cool card! The coloring is amazing!
So cute! Thanks for sharing!
Your rack full of Copics made my eyes POP… (swoon) I think I have about 35. These guys are so adorable. I love the coloring and they really look kind of dirty. Fun set and I have about 4 items on my list but am still shopping. Great Job!
Ha! Yes, I’ve been collecting Copics for two years. Now working on re-inkers.
Such a fun card! Thanks for sharing.
Fabulous card! I absolutely love it!
What a fun scene. The masking makes a big difference and just love the way it looks so well put together.
Amazing colors, would watch a video of how you color!
Wow! I love it.
I love the color choices you made for this card. It’s really cute!
This card is so nice for boys and girls, big and little 🥰
Cute card! Love the blue background!
Absolutely impressive coloring! TFS
I love the masking and beautiful coloring. Wish I had the confidence to color directly to the card stock to create a scene.
Confidence comes with time, believe me! I used to only use die cuts.
So cute! Beautiful coloring
Beautiful scene, love how you masked the boys off 😍
Your coloring is out of this world. Makes me want to keep practicing so mine will look like that some day. This flat card comes to live with such dimension, just wonderful.
Practice, practice, practice! I picked up my first Copic Markers 2 years ago.
I think it might be time for me to get this stamp set out again and play! Such a cute card!
Very handsome card.
Beautiful coloring on these pirates! My fav of the vault!
Oh, you’re “dirty” coloring is just the perfect style for these cute little mates!
Darling pirate scene! Love the way you colored them!
Love these pirates! Your coloring is always amazing! As is your ink blending!
Really adorable card and I can see your boys out reenacting this seen, getting dirty, just like real pirates. And, your background is gorgeous!
Thank you! My boys have always been into digging. They just dig. Why? I have no idea.😂
Beautiful coloring
I LOVE these pirates, and how you colored them. They are just adorable.
Such a cute card, and actually showing your process is a great help!
What an adorable card! Love the coloring. 🙂
I’m pretty sure I’ve given those little boys a bath at the end of a long day of pirate play! Such an adorable pair, and your coloring is off the charts good.
😂❤️❤️
Cute pirates and love your coloring.
Man… I am not a colorer and when I look at this it is a photograph quality. Just gorgeous. This needs to be framed in an adventurous little kiddos room!!
Thank you, Carol. ❤️
I am marveling at your color choices and blending. So realistic. Can’t believe you have only used Copics for 2 years.
Thank you. I practiced. A lot!😂❤️
Wow your card is stunning..amazing masking.
OMGOODNESS……Your colouring is amazing! I am hoping to invest in a starter set of copics soon. Thank you for sharing.
Enjoy your markers!
Angelica, your card is beautiful and your coloring is gorgeous!
