Tonight I made a few cards using Laina Lamb's new set, LLD Friend Request.

I paired this stamp set with Smart Phone Die-namics and started by cutting out the phone in Spearmint and Smooth White Card Stock. I stamped the sentiment in Sweet Tooth Ink and then heat embossed it with white embossing powder.
I added a little Red Hot heart on the top and used the Mini Delicate Doily in Pink Lemonade Card Stock for a little accent. The layout is from Seize the Sketch, STS #13, and the color combo is Color Throwdown 278.
You can find these fabulous items waiting for you in the MFT Boutique:
Up next I have another card showing off more of the sentiments from LLD Friend Request.

I started by cutting out the Sun Ray Die-namics in Smooth White and Pink Lemonade Card Stock and then stamped the sentiment in Sweet Tooth Ink on Natural Card Stock. I heat embossed it with white embossing powder. I added a Fishtail Flags Layers STAX Die-namics in Smooth White and stamped the HELLO in Spearmint Ink. I added a little row of Red Hot hearts using the Smart Phone Die-namics and then sprinkled a few rhinestones about.
Here are the MFT products I used in this card:
My last card is super clean & simple and it's my favorite.

I started with a Smooth White Card Stock base and then along the edge, I stamped an image from LJD Textile Backgrounds in Red Hot Ink. I cut out the large speech bubble from Smart Phone Die-namics and added the Hello in Spearmint Card Stock. Then I cut out the smaller speech bubble out of the main card layer and stamped inside the negative space. So fun! I really like this technique and really need to remember to use it more.
These fabulous products are waiting for you in the MFT Boutique:
