Speed Cardmaking

My entry for Event #4 in the MFT 2018 Creative Olympics – Speed Cardmaking.  You are given 20 minutes to create a card.  Sounds simple enough but once you get into it time flies.  It makes you realize how much time you actually take laying out a card design  and then creating it.  Also, I began to realize how many times I am interrupted.  It doesn’t bother me until I have a time limit to finish something.  This was a great challenge and an eye opening experience too.  I used the MFT Get Down To Business stamp set, grey card stock and grey ink.  It took me 18 minutes and 30 seconds to complete the card.  Thank you MFT for these Creative Olympic Events.  I had so much fun.

This is my entry in the MFT 2018 Creative Olympics Even #3 – Biathlon.  In this event you must choose two different techniques to incorporate into a card, I chose masking and shaker card.  Using the Polar Bear Pals stamp set and tried to make the shaker element look like water.  I enjoyed laying out and creating this card.  It stretched me creatively and I really liked that.

Event #2 in the MFT 2018 Creative Olympics.  Freestyle Card with a winter theme.  I had fun creating this card.  I only have one set that is “wintery”, but I love the Polar Bear Pals stamp set.  They are all so cute.  I also used the MFT stitched Die-namics and cloud stencil.

You Saved The Day…MFT Challenge

 

My Favorite Things Stamps is having a 2018 Creative Olympics.  This is for Event 1.  Use 3 different stamps sets to create a card.  I used You’re Super, New Best Friend and You Make My Tail Wag stamp sets along with other MFT stencils and stitched die-namics.  This card was a lot of fun to create.

I have been away from my blog and crafting for a while due to a death in my family but I am very much looking forward to posting more regularly.

Have a great weekend and enjoy the Olympics. GO USA!!
