MFT Design Team Announcement/Reveal

I've got an MFT card to show you but first I have a little something else to share.

Happy, happy, joy, joy! Kim is announcing the MFT Design Team members for the next term and I couldn't be happier to be staying!! This past year has been awesome--Kim and MFT just simply ROCK and I'm so thrilled to be working with the super talented designers on the team! In fact, she's announcing a couple of new teams in addition to the MFT Design Team. They are the MFT Scrap & Arts Team and the MFT Challenge Team. To find out more about all of the teams and who's on them, check out Kim's blog :)

I made this card for a Papercrafts Connection challenge a while back--obviously I didn't win, LOL, but I loved the challenge: to use phone book pages on your project. Nothing is more appropriate for that than the Call Me set that I used. I stamped the image on a Perfect Paper Panel with Memento Rich Cocoa ink and colored it with Copic marker and Prismacolor pencils. I also did some paper piecing and cut my phone book paper with the Jumbo Scallop Die-namics die for a little interest. I don't know why my dark brown always looks black, but I assure you that ribbon is dark brown ;-) Other MFT products I used area Sour Apple card stock and buttons from the Spring Collection.

Thanks for stopping by! Don't forget to hop on over to Kim's blog to get the news!

  4. You incorporated the phone book pages so well. I thought they were patterned papers. And that sentiment is perfect for this!!
    Great job!
