Welcome to day FOUR of MFT Teasers!  Today, we're showing a little sneak of Doodle Garden Hunny Bunny and Springtime Wishes.

I made a card using Springtime Wishes for you today.



I started with this month's MFT Guest Designer Sketch (there are a few more days to play!) and stamped this sweet girl in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on X-Press It Blending Card Stock and then colored her with Copic Markers.  I stamped her again on some Collectable - Memorable 6x6 paper from My Mind's Eye and paper pieced her bow and dress and then cut her out with an Oval STAX Die-namics.  I added some Whip Cream Ribbon around the card to hide the paper seam and then used the Squiggle Border Die-namics along the bottom.

I tied the Notched Tag Die-namics to the card with some ecru perle thread.


I used another sentiment from the set for the inside of the card in Black Licorice Ink and added more fancy stitching.

For my card tonight, I used Western Sentiments and the layout is MOJO278.



I grabbed some of my new Collectable - Unforgettable 6x6 papers from My Mind's Eye and cut out a Hexagon STAX Die-namics and stamped the sentiment right on top of the pattern in Kraft Ink.

I sewed it onto another hexagon in Kraft Card Stock and and added a few pearls underneath to dress it up a bit.  I also added a Leaf-Filled Flourish Die-namics peeking out from under the sentiment and placed a couple small pearls within the flourish. 


The inside of the card is filled with more of the same patterned paper pack and I added a sentiment from You Make My Day in Kraft ink, leaving room for a personal note.

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 made a card using Complimentary Greetings after I received the sweetest note from my daughter's teacher yesterday and I just had to make something special for her (this just shows you how last minute I really do stamp, haha!)  She makes me so proud and honestly, she makes me look like a fabulous parent - she's always kind to her teammates and classmates and she has this sense of humor that always cracks me up.  Quick as a whip!  



I started with a Kraft Card Stock base and some Collectable "Notable" 6x6 papers from My Mind's Eye.  I stamped the sentiment on Whip Cream Card Stock in Kraft Ink (have you noticed how much I LOVE this color??) and cut it out with a Fishtail Flags STAX Die-namics.  I used some Tangy Orange Buttons to embellish the flag.

I used the Open Hexagon Borders Die-namics as my vertical element and I filled in the negative spaces with various patterns from the Notable paper pack. 


On the inside of the card, I stamped another sentiment in Kraft Ink and then used more of the hexagons to fill space in the lower corner.

Welcome to day TWO of MFT Teasers!  Today, we're showing a little sneak of Laina Lamb Design Journal It - Library Card and Document It - Right This Way.

I made a scrapbook page!  I KNOW!  What?  I had this sweet little picture of my 2 youngest kiddos from a summer trip to the library and I just had to use it with these new sets.

I started with an 8" x 8" base of Kraft Card Stock and chose patterned paper from the Remarkable 6x6 pack by My Mind's Eye.  I printed the picture in a 3.5" size and then popped it up over the green paper, which I cut out with the new Insert It - 3 x 4 Notebook Paper Die-namics.  The library pocket is made using Whip Cream Card Stock and I stamped the image from Journal It - Library Card in Kraft Ink.  The pocket itself is the new Insert It - 3 x 4 Pocket Die-namics and I love the little angled front of it.  So cute!   



I needed a little extra something in the bottom right corner of my page, so I used this small sentiment stamp from Journal It - Library Card in Kraft Ink.  I really like the Kraft Ink on Kraft card stock - so soft and subtle. 


In the top corner I layered 3 different fishtail flags - the blue is a Mix & Match Banners Die-namics, the red and the yellow are both from Accent It - Labels & Tabs Die-namics. And I cannot seem to leave any banner naked, so I added some straight stitches along the top. 



I added a couple accent pieces using Document It - Right This Way with Wild Cherry Ink and...


Kraft Ink.  I stamped STORY in Wild Cherry ink and added By The Letters Die-namics underneath.  The date is from Document It - Days & Dates, and added a few Wild Cherry Buttons.


Along the bottom left I added some arrow accents from Document It - Right This Way and some clear rhinestones.  There is another arrow image in Sno Cone Ink, but the photo makes it look so faded, so it's difficult to see.  You might have to get really close to your screen. *wink*
