MFT December Hop and Shop

OK, it's finally here--MFT Release night! It's time to hop and shop! If you got here from the fabulous Sherrie's blog you're right on track. If not, I'm sayin' it would be a good idea to start at Kim's blog 'cause that's the beginning and you don't want to miss one little THING about this crazy awesome release!

I'm so happy that I get to show you the newest set in the Inspired by... series, Inspired by Love.


I started by stamping the music image in light green, stamped off once, then stamped the heart image in peach, then the Love image in black, then cut it out. Then I cut a layer to pop up over it like a frame, using the new Textile Frame Die-namics die for the inside window. I so {heart} this die!!! The shape is to "die" for. Sorry ;-) Then I made a nice fluffy bow with wrinkled seam binding and topped it off with a Rolled Rose Die-namics rose. I think it's such a romantic card, don't you? I LOVE that "Love" image--so vintage.

And here's the inside. I repeated the layered stamping, only I added a sentiment from the set.




Thanks SO much for stopping by! Remember that somewhere along the hop there's some blog candy. We're not spillin' the beans about where it is, but for the best chance of winning it, it's a good idea to leave a comment on every designer's blog. Just sayin'...

Now, you'll want to skedaddle on over to my BFF Tammy's blog to see what she has for you. I'm so stinkin' excited to have her hopping with us tonight and I know for a fact that she's got something outrageously fabulous to show you.
