MFT's February Pep Rally




Hi Everyone! Today is the final day of MFT's February Teasers! I hope you join us tonight for the release party in the MFT Forum at SCS

Today we are focusing on new Die-namics and all the different ways to use them! You can stop by Kim's blog for the list of designers sharing projects today. 


I LOVE the new Ring Me Die-namics and Stamp Set. I just think it is the cutest!! I used the Die-namics Dies to cut out all the parts of my phone and then stamped the phone cord, the numbers, and the sentiment. 


My border is cut with the new Monarch Border Die and my papers are from October Afternoon Sidewalks. I also added some Bakers Twine.


I used Jody's Boosters to pop up my phone giving my card a little more dimension. I added rhinestones to the center of the phone and tips of Monarch Border.


On the inside I stamped another sentiment from the set, a long phone cord, and added another Monarch Border and the center of the phone with a cute sentiment in the center.

I have a number of upcoming weddings to attend and thought that this sentiment would be perfect for a new couple. I decide to use a very neutral color scheme, just black and cream. My papers are from Creative Imaginations Narratives. My embellishments are stitching, pearls and crinkle ribbon.


My oval is mounted on the larger die in the new Oval Dainty Doily Die-namics


I created my flower with the new Botanical Beauty Die-namics. It is just so pretty! I used Tim Holtz Distressing Ink in Tea Dye on the edges and added a brad to the center.


On the inside I stamped another sentiment included in the Clearly Sentimental About Romance Stamp Set.

February MFT Teasers Day 2!

It's Day 2 of MFT February Teaser and we are sharing projects with three new stamp sets, Inspired by LighthousesInspired by Up, Up & Away (with coordinating Die-namics), and Fix-It Fred

So I am a California Girl! Born and raised in Southern California. I love the ocean! I always tell my husband the ocean feeds my soul when I try to talk him into taking a 15 minute drive to walk the boardwalk in Carlsbad. I also love lighthouse images so I was very excited to see the Inspired by Lighthouses Stamp Set. 


One of the things I love about the Inspired By Series is that the shading is done for you. I highlighted my image with my Copics, then masked off the lighthouse, and sponged the sky. 


Notice how I highlighted the waves. Last weekend I was lucky enough to get to take the Intermediate Copic Certification, taught by Sherrie Siemens and Marianne Walker. One of the Copic products we got to use was Copic Opaque White. I really like the effect. 


My border is cut with the new Monarch Border Die-namic and I added a sentiment for the stamp set. I finished my card off with machine stitching, twine, and a Tim Holtz charm. My papers are from My Mind's Eye 6 x 6 Pad Breeze.


On the inside I stamped another lighthouse from the set and another sentiment.
