MFT New Product Tour

admin — Wed, 08 May 2013 02:00:08 +0000

Welcome to the My Favorite Things New Product Tour. All of the new Die-namics and Stamp Sets you’ve seen over the last 7 days of Teasers are now available HERE in the MFT Boutique!

I am just loving the new products for May! Can you tell? I was so excited to work with Chalkboard Greetings, and of course wanted to create a chalkboard art card. I cut my Vertical Frame once from wood veneer and then again in Steel Grey. I stamped and embossed my sentiment on the Steel Grey card stock, and then used a sponge dauber to add white pigment ink to achieve the effect. Once that was dry I added a swirl (brave, aren’t I?) with my white colored pencil, and then played around for probably 30 mins trying to figure out what would work well in the space between “good” and “day”. I seriously tried 4 or 5 different things and then VOILA! Remembered we had an itty bitty sun in the Notched Tag Die-namics. I love it when I realize I have exactly what I need. I used Lemon Drop card stock to cut out my sun and popped it up on the main panel. Once I’d settled that debate, I cut a Chicken Wire Die-namics panel from Steel Grey card stock and then cut it to make a partial panel and adhered it to my card front using a Quickie Glue Pen. Then I added two Lemon Drop buttons, threaded of course, and my card was complete.

I hope you’ve enjoyed the amazing work our Designers have created for you, I know I’m inspired and can’t wait to get back in my craft room!

I was DYING to break out my newest Blueprints 2 Die-namics to try it out, and went rogue with my own *sketch* using the provided components. I wanted a simple, bold color scheme, and knew I had the perfect match in Blu Raspberry, Smooth White, and Steel Grey.

I stamped the word Birthday in Blu Raspberry ink, and then stamped Happy using Black Licorice ink. I then stamped Birthday again in Top Boss, and mixed together a very chunky glitter and clear embossing powder. It looks so neat IRL! I’ll definitely try that trick again in the near future.

I love that this card works for any age and any gender, and am SO thankful to have a few birthday cards in my stash to pull from. I actually had to PURCHASE a birthday card recently and I felt HORRIBLE. Sigh. Well, I’ve gotten over it, of course, but boy did it teach me a lesson.
