VIDEO | Cotton Candy Critters

Hello there, I am delighted to be over on the My Favorite Things YouTube Channel today, sharing a circle card using Cotton Candy Critters, from the July 2023 release. I really enjoy making circle cards and I thought these images worked well for the shape.

Here in the UK, cotton candy is called candy floss! So I will call it that in my post, but do be assured that I am referring to cotton candy, if that is what it is called where you are! :)

I started off by stamping the candy floss cart and cat from the MFT Cotton Candy Critters Stamp Set on to white cardstock using MFT Extreme Black Ink. I then coloured them using Copic Markers. The colours that I used are listed below the supplies area. They were die cut out using the MFT Cotton Candy Critters Die-namics. 

I die cut a a circle using the MFT A2 Stitched Circle STAX Die-namics set and added ink blending on top using Distress Inks. I used Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn for the grass and Mermaid Lagoon for the sky. I then stamped a sentiment from the set on to black cardstock using Versamark Ink. I applied white embossing powder and heat set. It was cut into a strip using the MFT Itty Bitty Strips Die-namics. 

I die cut another two circles from white cardstock, slightly bigger than the ink blended one. I cut a little off the bottom on one (so that it stands up nicely) and then scored a line at the top to create a hinge. I added adhesive to the hinge and adhered it to the other circle to create a card base. I adhered the images and sentiment to the ink blended panel using thin foam tape and then adhered it to the card base with thin foam tape also.
