One of my Favorite things - MFT July Teaser, Day Four

Happy Tuesday! Are you reeling from all the awesomeness that was yesterday's MFT sneak peek? More teasers from MFT's July release are coming your way today. Here's what you need to know:
  • The July Guest Designer contest continues and you can find the deets here.
  • Teasers began Saturday and will continue through Wednesday, July 7th. Be sure to check Kim's blog every day at 11:00am for links to designers previewing each day.
  • The July Hop and Shop will begin at 10:00pm on July 7, with the hop starting at Kim's Blog.
Today we're showing you a Joline and a new stamp and die set--Framed Greetings. Be still my heart--I love this set! Yep, you know I love me some sentiments as focal images and these are awesome! Kim has hit this one out of the ball part!


That sentiment is die cut, then stamped! There are three outline stamps and four sentiment stamps, plus some underline bars to match each outline. Oh, and do you see those rolled flowers? There's no need to cut your own spiral now 'cause MFT has a DIE to do it with! YES!!! A die to cut the spiral, then you just roll it on up and glue it down to it's little built-in base. How totally slick is that!?

Don't you just love that sentiment? I just had to use MFT's signature colors with it ;-) I think the basic card construction is pretty obvious, but I'll point out that that doily is just a little paper doily I picked up at a craft store in the cake decorating section. I "antiqued" it with Antique Linen Distress ink. Other MFT products I used are Pink Lemonade and Whip Cream card stock, Crocheted Ribbon Collection, and Royalty Ribbon Collection. I punched out some leaves from Gum Drop Green card stock and added some dark gray Dew Drops to the center of the rolled flowers.

Here's the inside with another sentiment from Framed Greetings:


Did I mention that I love Framed Greetings? ;-)

Now to recap what you need to know:
