My Favorite Things Camp Create 2019... Day 2 Challenge

Hi All!

The My Favorite Things Camp Create 2019 is back for a new session! Each day they bring in a new camp activity for everyone to play along with. With each new challenge you can earn a new camp badge while taking your card making up a notch. For day 2 the challenge was Remarkable Resist.



I decided to use a stencil to create the clear embossed background. After using the clear embossing powder I used the Distress Ink to finish creating the background. I also wanted to continue on with the birthday party theme I have going with all the other cards so I used the Celebrate die. I cut out the Celebrate die 4 times to layer them on top of themselves to create more dimension.

My Favorite Things Camp Create 2019... Day 5 Challenge

Hi All!

The My Favorite Things Camp Create 2019 is back for a new session! Each day they bring in a new camp activity for everyone to play along with. With each new challenge you can earn a new camp badge while taking your card making up a notch. For day 5 the challenge was Glitzy Glitter.



I am not normally one for glitter because it gets everywhere. My Mom on the other hand loves working with glitter in some of her projects so I borrowed some of her glitterness as inspiration to create this card. As I seem to have created birthday cards for all the other days of Camp Create I continued on with that theme to create a fun birthday wish card.

Supplies: White Cardstock, Black Cardstock, Matte Gold Cardstock, Tim Holtz Distress Ink (Picked Raspberry, Carved Pumpkin, Mowed Lawn, Mermaid Lagoon), MFT Wish die, MFT Card-Sized Star Confetti stencil, Nuvo Glitter Accents (Aztec Gold), Palette Knife

My Favorite Things Camp Create 2019... Day 4 Challenge

Hi All!

The My Favorite Things Camp Create 2019 is back for a new session! Each day they bring in a new camp activity for everyone to play along with. With each new challenge you can earn a new camp badge while taking your card making up a notch. For day 4 the challenge was Sensational Sliders.



I thought a hippo flying up in the air holding 3 balloons would be cute with a slider die. My Favorite Things has these little pieces for their sliders called "Slider Elements" but a penny works as well. As I used a penny for my slider element I used some of large pop dots to create a stopper at the top so that the top of the balloons we contained inside the card.

My Favorite Things Camp Create 2019... Day 3 Challenge

Hi All!

The My Favorite Things Camp Create 2019 is back for a new session! Each day they bring in a new camp activity for everyone to play along with. With each new challenge you can earn a new camp badge while taking your card making up a notch. For day 3 the challenge was Spectacular Shakers.



I really like the shaker pouches that My Favorite Things has as it makes it easier to make a shaker card. I absolutely love the Radiating Rays stencil so my thought for this card was to center the stencil on the background and using a rainbow set of Distress Ink create a very colourful background. I wanted the shaker to be front and center so I cut out the Happy Birthday Circle Frame die out of black and put the shaker over the center part of the Radiating Rays stencil.

My Favorite Things Camp Create 2019... Day 1 Challenge

Hi All!

The My Favorite Things Camp Create 2019 is back for a new session! Each day they bring in a new camp activity for everyone to play along with. With each new challenge you can earn a new camp badge while taking your card making up a notch. For day 1 the challenge was Wonderful Watercolour.



I decided to see how the Distress Ink and the Distress Oxide Ink would look to create watercolour backgrounds. So I created a Distress Ink rainbow background with pink, red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple. Using the background I created a cute birthday card.

Card 1 - Smile it's your birthday!



Supplies: Watercolour Paper, Black Cardstock, White Cardstock, Memento Black Ink, Tim Holtz Distress Ink (Picked Raspberry, Candied Apple, Carved Pumpkin, Mustard Seed, Mowed Lawn, Mermaid Lagoon, Wilted Violet, Hickory Smoke), Water, Paintbrush, MFT Double The Smiles die, MFT All Smiles stamp, Your Next Stamp Gumdrops (Clear Sparkle)

I also created a blue background with the Distress Oxide Ink before using Distress Ink and a stencil to create waves. Using the background I created a pirate card that could be used for many different types of cards.

Card 2 - Ahoy, Mate!



Supplies: Watercolour Paper, White Cardstock, Kraft Cardstock, Memento Black Ink Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Ink (Broken China), Tim Holtz Distress Ink (Mermaid Lagoon, Tumbled Glass, Vintage Photo), Water, Paintbrush, MFT Party Like A Pirate stamp, MFT Make Waves stencil, Copic Markers, Wink of Stella Brush Glitter Clear, Your Next Stamp Gumdrops (Cosmic Crush, Clear Sparkle)
