I Am Praying for You–MFT November New Product Release

This simple Cross Die-namics pairs up SO well with the new Beautiful Blessings Stamp Set so I HAD to use them together on this card! I wanted them to both shine so I kept the rest of the card pretty simple and highlighted the cross with a floral arrangement. The cross will come in so handy for so many occasions! Births, weddings, holidays, and yes, even for condolences. The fact that it’s such a CAS design means you can do so much with it so let me show you what I did. To begin, I wanted some “light” rays emanating from it but I wanted it subtle so I dry embossed Radiating Rays Stencil on Some Sweet Tooth card stock for the background. I framed that with Elegant Rectangle STAX Die-namics and adhered it to a Sweet Tooth card stock base.



I cut Cross Die-namics from Gold Sparkle card stock and popped it up on foam tape for dimension, then added the bouquet of Mini Rolled Roses and Fab Foliage Die-namics. To finish off, I heat embossed the sentiment on Heavyweight Translucent Vellum with Ranger Liquid Platinum embossing powder. I love this powder and don’t use it enough—it shows up better than white but is still unobtrusive in the design. I popped this up on clear foam tape and it was done. Tip: place bits of clear foam tape behind the sentiment and you won’t see it at all.

And that’s it! I hope I’ve given you some ideas for using YOUR new November goodies in some fun and creative ways. Thanks so much for stopping by…and happy shopping!! 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 by end of the day on Thursday, November 15th.
