I Fish You Were Here - June MFT & Friends Feature


























All of our May Release products are available in the
MFT Online Boutique NOW! Today our team is taking a fresh look at our most recent release with inspiring ideas and innovative takes on the complete collection. We love the opportunity to look at our products with fresh eyes, envisioning entirely new ways to showcase the possibilities they present. We can’t wait to share our ideas with you so be sure to also stop by the MFT Blog to see who else is participating!





I hadn’t had a chance to play with Fish You Were Here Stamp Set and Die-namics so I thought this was a perfect opportunity to remedy that! I’m also using Under the Sea Die-namics to complete my underwater scene. To begin, I sponged Peacock Feathers Distress Ink on Strathmore Bristol Smooth paper, adding some Ray of Light Stencil accents. I stamped the sentiment then adhered the panel to a Sweet Tooth card stock base.




























Next I cut the Under the Sea Die-namics elements (card stock listed below) and added them to the card front, some directly and some with foam tape. Then I stamped the images on No Line Coloring card stock, cut them out with the coordinating Die-namics colored them with Copic markers, and popped them up in the scene with foam tape.

And that’s it from me for the June
MFT & Friends Feature! Thanks so much for stopping by! See you soon!

  21. The ray stencil adds so much to sea scenes; every time I see it in use, I think "That's genius, and I need it." I also like all the little raised fish. They look like they're about to swim right off the card. Thanks for sharing!
