Hello and welcome to a new card challenge for Cards in Envy. The theme is Feeling Blue or “Distressed“. Create a cards with Distress inks and a lot of the color blue.
I didn’t use any pattern paper for my card. Instead, I created the background using a MFT polka dot stamp and Distress inks. I used the same blue ink for my cute little monster. I love how the monster is waving hello thru the window.
Background stamp – MFT
Image and sentiment stamps – MFT
Image die – MFT
Peek-a-Boo circle die – MFT
Inks – Ranger Distress Oxide and Reverse Confetti

Very cute card, Kristie. That polka dot background stamp sure looks like pattern paper. Great stamp and you can get a lot of mileage from it, I'm sure. 🙂 Your little monster is pretty cute waving out his window. Great job on this card! Have a great day. 🙂
I love this cute monster and love the polka dots in the background.
Thank you, Jeanne! It's the first background stamp I've ever purchased. But I think it's something I will use quite a bit. At least when I'm not reaching for fun pattern papers. 🙂
Thank you, Sherri! It was a fun card to create. 🙂
Great background stamp, and that monster is super cute. I really like the peek-a-boo opening in your circle!
Thank you, Jennifer! I think this is the first time I used the peek-a-boo circle dies. 🙂
