Our Favorite Find: April

By on May 2, 2011 in Our Favorite Finds

Every week, we bring you a selection of gorgeous projects that our designers have discovered either in blog-land or within online galleries.  We’re constantly amazed by your stunning projects and we’re thrilled to be able to share just a sampling of what we find each week with you!

Then, at the end of each month, we select one sample as our very favorite of the month.  Today I’m thrilled to be able to share this knock-out project with you from Lea.  I’m in love with the soft, shabby design, and I think you’d agree, the timing is totally perfect with mother’s day this weekend, right?  Please congratulate Lea by dropping over to her beautiful blog Cupcakes and Sunshine. The image below will link you directly to her blog!

Lots going on here at MFT this week, we’re getting pumped up for our next release on Tuesday, April 5th and you’ve been seeing our Freeze Frames each day, just tiny previews of the upcoming sets.  I’ve just posted the last of the Freeze Frames – just below this post.  Tomorrow we’ll have our Designers on board to share some inspiration with the new sets.

This post, however, is all about YOU. Our amazing customers.  It is always a joy to open either my Google Reader, or the Splitcoast Stampers Gallery and see it filled with love for MFT.  You have no idea how happy that makes my heart.  I love that MFT has become a part of all of you, and I’m always in awe of the beautiful work that you all do. Yes, I am gushing.

So, today I have five amazing projects to share with you – I hope you’ll stop by to leave a little love for each of the featured artists today. Because, I’m quite certain that you’ll love these projects just as much as we have!

Inge’s project today is so gorgeous, I love the monochromatic look here with Being Cute is What I Do!

This week has flown by! I can’t believe it is already Thursday – but hooray because today’s the day that I’m going to be sharing with you some of the fabulous projects that our designers have found in the last week!

Before we get to this week’s eye candy, I wanted to remind you about this week’s special……

Spring Cleaning Sale

We’ve been spring cleaning here at MFT! We found a huge number of products that were limited edition, retired, or are retiring, and we have filled a big box full of our finds.

From Wednesday, March 23 though Friday, March 25, we are having a Spring Cleaning Sale. When you place ANY order that requires shipping, you will receive a freebie with your order. It could be a full spool of ribbon, a patterned paper pack, or any other item out of our Spring Cleaning Sale box. It’ll be a suprise… a little extra reason to look forward to receiving your order. You have three days to take advantage of this fun sale, so get your wishlist together and go shop HERE in the MFT Boutique.

*The Spring Cleaning Sale freebie is ONLY good for orders that require shipping. If your order is ONLY for digital products, you will NOT receive a freebie. We’re sorry, but the shipping department cannot take requests for the freebie.

And now, we’re onto this week’s Favorite Finds!  Up first is a fresh and happy creation by Becky using a la modes: Miss You a Latte

Goodness!  Is this ever beautiful from Wendy! Such an unexpected yet totally striking color combination with Pure Innocence: Making a List.

Gretchen plays along in the Wednesday Stamp Club challenge, and her Groovy Girl is the life of the party!

Lori inks up some green to celebrate Saint Patrick’s day with last week’s sketch challenge:

Donna gets straight to work with her new Who’s That Girl and paper pieces a stunning dress. If you missed this one as part of the VIP Kit, she’ll be available again soon as part of our April 5th release!

I hope you have enjoyed these projects as much as we did! I’ll see you again tomorrow with another project from our March Fabulous Friend – Tami Mayberry!
