MCT: 40th Release: Sneak Peek Day #1

I'm so excited!! It's day 1 of sneak peeks for the fabulous My Creative Time's 40th Edition Release!!  This release makes me so ready for warmer weather and spring!! 

Today we are show casing, the oh so adorable "To a Cute Chickie" Stamp Set & the beautiful "Wishing You" stamp! 



I love these adorable little chickies!! I first stamped them on top of each other by masking the legs. I then carefully did selective cutting with the dies to cut them out as a whole. I colored them in with Copic markers. I also added Glossy Accents to their eyes and white gel pen accents to their wings.

For the background, I first cut out a 3x4 journal card using MCT: Stitched Journal Die. Then I stamped on the clouds using MCT: Cartoon Cloud Background Stamp. I finished the journal card by adding two rows of grass that were cut out using MCT: Stitched Grass Die.



I cut the Paper Studio: Polka Dotted pattern paper out using MCT: Stitched Rectangular Dies. I matted it with some light blue Recollection's card stock. I added a pink bow from my stash.

I stamped the adorable sentiment from the new "To Cute Chickie" onto a speech bubble cut out using MCT: Stitched Round Speech Bubbles.



For this card, I used MCT: Bunch of Fun Circle dies to create the base of my card! I then layered the base with a pretty MCT: Stitched Doily die cut. I stamped the beautiful sentiment from the new "MCT: Wishing You" onto a large pink circle also cut from the Bunch of Fun Circle dies.

I created the elegant flowers by combing the two flower dies from MCT: Rolled Flower dies together. I inked the edges with purple Colorbox ink and then added some sparkly Stickles to the edges of the petals. 

I cut the leaves from MCT: Stitched Leaves dies. I inked the sides with Stampin' Up Old Olive ink. I also added a little bit of Stickles to the edges of the leaves as well!

I stamped and paper pieced the cute little chickie from the new MCT: To a Cute Chickie. I colored the beak and outlined him with Copic markers. I added sparkly Stickles to his body and Glossy Accents to his body.
