MFTeasers | Day 2


Welcome to the second day of Teaser Time for My Favorite Things!  This week is full of inspiration for you AND we have some fun prizes for you too, so be sure to hop on over to the MFT Blog to see how you can win some MFT goodies!

All of these new products will be available for purchase on October 8th @ 10 PM Eastern.

It's time to get going on those Christmas cards and Mona Pendleton's new set, MPD Starry Christmas is filled with beautiful images and sentiments to get you started.



I cut out the dove from MPD Starry Christmas Die-namics in Smooth White Card Stock and then stamped the image in Paver Red and Timber Green Ink.  I popped it up over a Pierced Circle STAX Die-namics and then decorated the panel underneath with Sno Cone Ribbon and 3 Jumbo Fishtail Banner STAX Die-namics.   I added the sentiment along the bottom of the Steel Grey panel in Black Licorice Ink.  The layout here is Jen Shults' DS117.


I kept the inside of the card very simple and added a sentiment in Paver Red Ink.

MFT Wednesday Stamp Club


Hello!  It's Wednesday, and that means it's time for another fun sketch challenge from MFT!  Here's a look at the sketch:


I'm inking up another new set, LJD Grand Holiday Greetings, which will be available for purchase on October 8th - fun!



I loved this unique layout, with the main panel along the side of the card.  It was perfect for these big sentiments and I used the Vertical Frame Die-namics insert in Smooth White Card Stock.  I stamped the sentiment 3 times, masking off the words and phrases as I inked to create the 3 color look.  I stamped the "&" in Pink Lemonade Ink and then cut it out with a Circle STAX Die-namics so I could pop it up over the original.  The background stamp is from Large Scale Backgrounds, in Berrylicious Ink

I'm starting off Teaser Week with my favorite little snowman - Pure Innocence Trim the Branches Snowman.



I started by stamping this adorable guy in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on X-Press It Blending Card Stock and then colored him with Copic markers.  I cut the image out with a Pierced Square STAX Die-namics and then popped it up over some Sno Cone Card Stock, which I cut out with the new Swiss Dots Die-namics and I slipped a sheet of Sweet Tooth Card Stock underneath to make snowflakes.


I stamped him again inside the card in Steel Grey Ink, but stamped the image off once to lighten the lines.  I added the sentiment over the top.
