Lunar New Year... July Inspiration


Happy Monday blog friends.. can you believe it is already the 22nd of July. WOW where does the time go? I have some good news.... there is still time to link up on the Lunar New Year Challenge. There are 4 amazing prizes... yes, I said 4 and the sponsors are amazing. You have to link up for a chance to win. 


Today I am getting crafty with one of this month sponsors My Favorite Things. I am creating with...
Images colored with Copic Sketch markers and background is Ranger Oxide inks: Worn Lipstick and Wilted violet. 


Create card from white cardstock A2 size.

Cut a white cardstock panel A2 size and ink blend the Ranger Distress Oxide inks Worn Lipstick and Wilted Violet. Do not blend down all the way.... leave a little white at the bottom. 

Sprinkle a little water on the background and see the magic of using oxide inks. I sprinkle the water and then blot with a cloth. Don't rub just blot. Set aside to let dry completely. 

Stamp out all these adorable images from the MFT Darling Dragons stamp set on white cardstock using black ink. Color the images using your favorite medium. I used Copic Sketch markers. Don't be scared of mixing up the colors when coloring. They almost all blend well together. Create fun colorful dragons.  

Die cut all the pieces out using the coordinating MFT Darling Dragon die set. 

Now it is time to create your scene. Use foam tape and liquid glue and create a scene that you will love. 

Finishing with the sentiment from the Word Bouquet stamp set, stamped directly onto the background using black ink. 


This set is so cute, I just had to use almost all the images on one card. Why not, right? 

Thank you for stopping by.
Have a wonderful day.
