When I saw the new color challenge from My Favorite Things, I was challenged! The new MFT Color Challenge 162 was to use these colors:
I seem to have very few Easter stamps and dies, so I had to get creative. I used the MFT Balloon Shaker die set. I only used the interior shape which happens to look exactly like an egg! I made the two grassy levels and attached them to the patterned paper. Then I cut through all of them with the balloon die in the exact spot I wanted! MFT has amazing shaker pouches for many of their dies so I used that to include some spring type sequins. I cut the shape one more time from patterned paper which has every color and used as a backer for the shaker. I stamped that sentiment in the bottom right corner using Eiffel Tower ink. The speech bubble sentiment is from MFT stamp set Geek is Chic. I had to cut the sentiment into two pieces to fit in the speech bubble. Then I added one more plain egg. The little bumble bee is a brad that just added the right touch!
Sadly, I think the products used have all been discontinued except the ink color. MFT makes wonderful stamps and die sets that I have proven never go out of style!
Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog.
