MCT April Release Sneak Peek Day 4 ~ enjoy the little things!



Happy Thursday my paper lovin' friends!  Today is Day 4 of My Creative Time's April Release Sneak Peeks!  How exciting we only have to wait one more day until the Blog Hop and shopping begin!!!  Hasn't this release been fun!  I'm loving the "revamped" hot air balloon...and today we are sharing the "revamped" plane...and just as fun!

I have two projects to share with you today.  This first one is the "freebie" stamp (there are some rules that apply to the "freebie" stamp).  I wanted to created something totally different...


First I painted stripes on canvas (2"x2" canvas), then I stamped the image twice on cardstock.  One I die cut out for the shape, the other I fussy cut the banner and popped it up on the full image.  Lastly I outlined the die cut with gold gel pen.


For my next card I  die cut clear cardstock to create a stencil then inked in several blue distress inks to create the "sky".  I colored the plane and banner with copic markers, and used wink of stella and glossy accents on the plane.  A few gold stars later and voila it was completed!  :)
