MFT November New Product Launch

NPL1_2014nov11

Are you ready to shop?! MFT October Release is NOW, at the MFT store! All the goodies we’ve been showing you for the last week are now available for purchase!

I have some cards to show you using several of the new products being released tonight. My first card starts with a Kraft card stock base, on which I stamped the knit image from LJD Nordic Knits with Kraft pigment ink since I just wanted a hint of pattern as a backdrop for my other elements. The first element is a piece of Primitive White card stock stenciled, first with embossing paste and then Grape Jelly dye ink, through Small Chevron Stripes stencil. I popped that up on foam and added the sentiment strip, also from Primitive White card stock, stamped with an image from Cozy Greetings with Grape Jelly pigment ink. I cut LJD Cozy Mittens Die-namics from Kraft card stock and stamped them with the intricate design from LJD Nordic Knits and Grape Jelly pigment ink. I joined them together with Hemp cord and clipped them together with a mini clothespin, and I finished it off with some sequins.

Another sentiment from Cozy Greetings was stamped on the inside.

I had lots of fun with my second card :)

NPL2_2014nov11

I started with a Grout Gray card stock base, then on a piece of Sweet Tooth card stock, I stamped the knit image from LJD Nordic Knits in a rainbow pattern, from the top: Red Hot dye ink, Orange Fizz dye ink, Lemon Drop dye ink, Sour Apple dye ink, I popped that up on foam and added the sentiment from Cozy Greetings, stamped on a strip of Sweet Tooth card stock with Black Licorice dye ink. I cut the small sweater from Comfy Sweater Die-namics from Red Hot card stock with Sour Apple card stock ribbing and added a Sour Apple card stock tree, cut from LJD Cozy Mittens Die-namics. I colored some tiny gems to match the card colors with Copic markers and “decorated” the tree with them, then popped the sweater up on foam on top of some silver thread.

Another sentiment from Cozy Greetings was stamped on the inside.

My third card is definitely warm and cozy :)

NPL3_2014nov11

It started with a Hot Fudge card stock base, then I added a piece of Kraft card stock dry embossed with Small Chevron Stripes stencil. I stamped up a piece of Sweet Tooth card stock with images from LJD Nordic Knit in Sno Cone pigment ink and Hot Fudge pigment ink and popped it up on foam. I added a little strip of Kraft card stock stamped with another image from the set with Kraft pigment ink, then cut Comfy Sweater Die-namics from Sweet Tooth card stock stamped with LJD Nordic Knits and Sno Cone pigment ink. The ribbing was cut from Hot Fudge card stock and the center image is from LJD Cozy Mittens and LJD Cozy Mittens Die-namics. The sentiment was stamped on Sweet Tooth card stock using Cozy Greetings and Hot Fudge pigment ink. A few enamel dots finished it off.

On the inside, I stamped LJD Nordic Knits with Sno Cone pigment ink and the sentiment, from Cozy Greetings, with Hot Fudge pigment ink.

My last card is a little more CAS.

NPL4_2014nov11

It starts with a Kraft card stock base, then on a Sweet Tooth card stock, I stamped the image from LJD Nordic Knits with Orange Fizz pigment ink. I popped that up on foam, then added the sentiment strip, cut from Grout Gray ink with Fishtail Flags STAX Die-namics and stamped with an image from BB Cool Day with Black Licorice ink. I cut the mittens, with BB Cool Day Die-namics from X-Press It Blending Card and stamped the coordinating image, from BB Cool Day, with Black Licorice hybrid ink, colored them with Copic markers, stamped the heart from BB Cool Day with Red Hot pigment ink, and popped them up on foam.

Another sentiment from Cozy Greetings was stamped on the inside.
