Welcome to the MFT Stamps Creative Construction with Blueprints Challenge! This month the challenge is Hip to Be Square. Making square cards is a lot of fun and its easy to accomplish when you use the fantastic dies and the sketches that are provided with Die-namics Blueprints!
For my card today, I had fun mixing and matching elements from several sets of Die-namics Blueprints. They all work together beautifully and I love that I get so much use out of these dies!
I started by cutting Sweet Tooth card stock with a rounded rectangle from Die-namics Blueprints 14. Then I stamped the two parts of the flower from Fall Florals.
Using the stitched square from Die-namics Blueprints 14, I cut the new paper pack, Homespun Gingham. Then I layered it with another square with a rounded corner. The Kraft card stock I used to create that, was also from Die-namics Blueprints 14. I stamped the panel with a small image from Fall Florals using Kraft ink. Small white dots were added to each flower as well. I thought they kind of looked like hearts, so they would be a fun touch.
The pennant piece was created with Persimmon card stock using a die from Die-namics Blueprints 12. By cutting it twice, layering it together, and trimming off the top notch, I had a great element, in the perfect scale! The sentiment is from Pretty Poppies and was stamped on a label shape from
Die-namics Blueprints 14. One last detail to note, all the edges of the papers were inked with Natural ink, to add cohesion and a shabby look for fall. I love how it ties everything together!
