Have a Blessed Season – MFT Stamps

It’s the last day of spotlights for the October MFT Stamps release. I hope you enjoyed all of the inspiration! Today’s card is one of my favorites that I made this week. I absolutely love the Santa images in Nicest on the List. They are super cute and have a slightly vintage cartoon vibe. I also love all the layers I added to this card.

STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS

Die cut and adhere the layers of the background from solid colored cardstock (Jalapeño Popper and Red Hot) and patterned papers (Holiday Plaid, Colorful Christmas Text, and Falling for Houndstooth). I die cut the layers from the Postage STAX Die-namics and the Double Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-namics.
Die cut a panel using the second to largest die in Stitched Rounded Arch STAX Die-namics.
Using Jalapeño Popper and Limelight dye inks, stamp several branches from Mod & Merry.
Adhere the panel with foam tape.
Die cut the 2 and 5 from the Solid Numbers Die-namics using Jalapeño Popper cardstock. Add some Jalapeño ink at the top for am ombre look. Adhere to the card front.
Stamp one of the Santas from Nicest on the List using Memento Rich Cocoa ink and color with copic markers. I did very simple copic coloring with very little shading. Die cut with the coordinating die.
I did not like how I colored the list so I stamped another one and fussy cut it out. I layered it on top with foam tape. I like the added dimension. Pop up the Santa with more foam tape above the 5.
Stamp and white heat emboss a sentiment from Christmas Wishes. Die cut the sentiment with the coordinating die and die cut two more layers to add stability to the thin sentiment.
