The Perfect Gift–MFT December Teasers, Day One

Hey, there, everyone! Today is the first day of teasers for MFT’s December release. Today we have two new sets from Lisa Johnson Designs: Gift Card Greetings II and On the Line. There’s also a coordinating die for the gift card set: Die-namics Gift Card Pocket – Horizontal. How cool is that!? Before I show you my card using all of these soon-to-be-released products, here’s a little something you need to know:

Alrighty, then! I’m using several new products on this card in addition to those I mentioned earlier. See that snowflake? That’s Die-namics Snowflake Doily (squeeeeeel!!) and is a perfect winter-themed doily. I {heart} it a lot. Then there’s the new Die-namics Postage Stamp STAX. Need I say more? Awesome, just awesome! I cut it out or patterned paper first, then cut another copy from Steel Gray card stock and attached the two on an offset. Gives the impression of a border without really being one. Then I tied around some Honeydew baker’s twine and tied on a Steel Gray button as an accent. Then I cut my gift card out, stamped the sentiment, from Gift Card Greetings II, on the front, assembled it, and popped it up on foam dots. I did a little stitching and some sponging with Vintage Photo Distress Ink and I was done. I think this would make a great masculine Thank You card ‘cause here’s the inside, with a sentiment from On the Line. I LOVE how crisp and clean this sentiment set is and I ADORE the line around this one in particular.

 

Here’s a peek at the the new products used on this card that will release on December 11:

 

Thanks so much for stopping by! See you back tomorrow for Day Two!
