January MFT Release Countdown: Day Five!

Hi everyone!! Happy Friday!

It’s time, my friends! Time to begin the countdown to the DARLING MFT January Release! All of the amazing new products will be released on Tuesday, January 9th at 9PM EDT right HERE in the MFT Boutique!

Today I have a card to share with you using the ADORABLE new Raving Raccoons, Raving Raccoons Die-namics, Full of Heart Die-namics, and a new Paper Pack that made my crafty dreams come true…the Black & White Stripes Paper Pack! ALL BLACK & WHITE STRIPES!!! YES!!!

These raccoons totally have my heart! LOVE! I started my card by creating the background, and I cut two panel of Smooth White Card Stock using the A2 Rectangle STAX 2 Die-namics. I cut one of the panels again using the GORGEOUS new Full of Heart Die-namics (SWOON!) and put it to the side. I then took the other panel and sponged on Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide Ink, Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide Ink and Candied Apple Distress Oxide Ink. I spritzed the panel with water, and then with watered down white acrylic paint. Once the background was dry, I added the panel cut with the Full Of Heart Die-namics on top.

I cut the raccoons from X-Press It Blending Card using the Raving Raccoons Die-namics, and I stamped them using the INSANELY AWESOME new Extreme Black Hybrid Ink using the Raving Raccoons set. I colored them with Copic Markers and then popped them up with Foam Tape onto a panel of Smooth White Card Stock cut using the Circle STAX 2 Die-namics. I cut a panel of Red Hot Card Stock using the Essential Fishtail Sentiment Strips Die-namics, and I stamped the sentiment from Raving Raccoons using Versamark Ink and then heat embossed it using White Detail Embossing Powder. I then added two more panels, also cut using the Essential Fishtail Sentiment Strips Die-namics, cut from Cotton Candy Card Stock and paper from the new Black & White Stripes Paper Pack (OBSESSED). I finished off the card with a trio of enamel dots.
