Creative Construction with Blueprints – Frame It

Hi everyone!  The MFT team is back today to share our monthly challenge constructing with  Blueprints. This month we are using Blueprints 2, 16, 17, and 19 featuring framing elements of all shapes and sizes.  First we’ll assemble a card based on one of the provided Blueprints sketches, then we’ll design an original card combining elements from those sets.

For my first card, I chose a sample sketch using Blueprints 19 and super-cute new Somebunny stamp set by Birdie Brown. All colored images were cut from X-Press It Blending Card and colored with Copic markers.

Framing elements were cut from Peach Bellini, Coral Crush and Sweet Tooth card stock.  Small hearts were cut using Blueprints 11.

I actually love how my second card turned out. I created a banner using Blueprints 16, a ladder from Blueprints 2, a floor from Blueprints 17 and scalloped borders from Blueprints 19.

The banner was cut from Lemon Chiffon, Summer Splash and Pink Lemonade card stock with gold stars (from BP 17) cut from a scrap of gold card stock. The sentiment was stamped in Golden Glitz ink.  (LOVE this ink!)
