VIDEO | CASEing Your Own Cards

Hello there, I am over on the My Favorite Things YouTube channel today, sharing a card using the super cute Ride or Die set. I knew that I wanted to use this set and which character I wanted to use but I wasn't sure of a card design. I went to my Instagram feed and found a card that I made previously where I thought I could adapt the design slightly to work with the character.

I started off my card by stamping the bunny from the MFT Ride or Die Stamp Set on to white cardstock with black ink. I then coloured her using Copic Markers (the colours that I used are listed below the supplies area for reference). I die cut her out using the MFT Ride or Die Die-namics


I took a 3.25" x 4.5" white panel of cardstock and added a little Tim Holtz Mermaid Lagoon Distress Ink to it to create the illusion of a sky. I die cut a MFT Grassy Terrain Die-namics from white cardstock and then added ink blending with Tim Holtz Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn Distress Inks. Finally, I die cut the MFT Heartfelt Fence Die-namics from white cardstock also. 


I stamped a sentiment from the MFT Itty Bitty Basics Stamp Set on to the panel and then adhered the fence below using MFT On-Point Precision Glue. I cut off the excess with scissors and then adhered the grass piece on top. The panel was adhered to a US A2 sized white card base with thin foam tape. The bunny was then added on top with more thin foam tape. To finish off, I added black glaze pen to her eye and white gel pen highlights.
