It’s time! MFT’s July Release is live right NOW at the MFT Boutique!! To celebrate, and to continue celebrating MFT’s 9th Birthday, I have a card using some of the new products for you.
I started with a Kraft card stock base then added a Sweet Tooth layer popped up on foam mounting tape. I added a couple of strips of stamped paper from my stash, one using Plaid Builder Background and one using Sheet Music Background then tied around some twine. Next I created a shaker element FULL of Birthday Balloons Die-namics, cut from Berrylicious card stock, Safety Orange card stock, and Black Licorice card stock, arranged on the super fun new Balloon Strings Background, stamped on Sweet Tooth card stock with Black Licorice dye ink. The frame was made from silver foil card stock cut with Pierced Rectangle Frames Die-namics and using heat resistant acetate as the window. I filled it with 4mm Metallic Bronze sequins, 6mm Onyx sequins, 6mm Aquamarine sequins, 4mm Aquamarine sequins, and seed beads from my stash. I adhered it to my card base then added sentiment strip made by cutting Brushstroke Birthday Greetings Die-namics from Black Licorice card stock, adhering it to a strip of Sweet Tooth card stock, and popped it up on foam.
And that’s it! Thanks so much for stopping by tonight—now go shop!! See you soon! And don’t forget that MFT will be giving away TWO $100 vouchers—to have a chance to win one, be sure to comment on each of the designers’ blogs—check out the MFT Blog for all the details. Good luck!!
