MFT December Teaser, Day Five

Can you believe this is the last day of MFT's December teasers!? Tonight is the night--release party and then hop and shop!! Yeehaw!! Today we're previewing From the Bottom of My Heart WTG and Clearly Sentimental About Love (Triple Scoop set). I'm showing you Clearly Sentimental About Love, but first here are a few things you need to know:
  • The December Guest Designer winner will be announced at the release party.
  • Teasers end today. Be sure to check Kim's blog at 11:00am for links to designers previewing today. There will be a prize hidden on two of the Creative Team's blog posts. Leaving a comment on every designer's blog post will give you the best chance of winning :)
  • The November Hop and Shop will begin at 10:00pm TONIGHT, with the hop starting at Kim's Blog.
OK, got that? Good :) Now for my card. I decided to make a Valentine's Day card more on the masculine side. NOT that you can't give pink hearts to a guy for Valentine's Day, but I wanted to see if I could make some blues work.  


First, I stamped and die cut one of the border images from the new Textile Rectangle Die-namics Die and Stamp Set on Bashful Blue with Chocolate Chip ink. Then I stamped a sentiment from Clearly Sentimental About Love on Fossil card stock, punched it out, and popped it up on the rectangle. I'm using the great sketch that's the Wednesday Stamp Club challenge today for my layout, and used a piece of wide twill from the Creme Cotton Twill Collection and some twine and a button from the Earth Girl Collection (out of stock) or that horizontal element.


Here's the inside, where I used a sentiment from From the Bottom Of My Heart WTG set and the new Hearts a Plenty Die-namics die set.



Thanks so much for stopping by today! Hope to see you tonight at the release party and the hop!
