Stay Tuned, We Have More in Store–Four Days Until MFT’s February Release!















Hello and welcome to Day Four of MFT’s February Release Countdown! Release is on February 4th at 10am Eastern so make a note! And be sure to stop by the MFT Blog for all the details. Today we’re previewing SY Sweet Shop Stamp Set, SY Sweet Shop Die-namics, Hydrangeas in Bloom Stamp Set, Hydrangeas in Bloom Die-namics, Lots of Love Die-namics (Previous Free with $60), Impressive Happy Birthday Die-namics, and Freshly Picked Die-namics.



I was thinking of using the chalkboard technique on this image but after I got it heat embossed I decided to color it with a white pencil instead. Once that was done I trimmed it with A2 Rectangle STAX Set 2 and popped it up on a Sweet Tooth card stock base.


I stamped a sentiment from All About You Stamp Set on Sweet Tooth card stock cut with Skinny Strips Die-namics and adhered it directly to the card front. Then I stamped and cut All About You Stamp Set and Die-namics and popped it up on foam for dimension and finished off with some Clear Round Drops – Set 2.

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

MFT February Countdown Kickoff—Five Days Until the New Release!












Hello and welcome to Day Five of
MFT’s February Release Countdown! Release is in five days and it’s another amazing release! Today we’re previewing BB Birthday Buds Stamp Set, BB Birthday Buds Die-namics, All About You Stamp Set, All About You Die-namics, You Impress Me Die-namics, Little Birthday Notes Stamp Set, and Hip, Hip, Hooray Die-namics. Release is on February 4th at 10am Eastern so mark your calendars! And don’t forget to stop by the MFT Blog for all the details!





I do love the Impressive Die-namics line for hot foiling so I used You Impress Me Die-namics for this card. I used turquoise hot foil and stamped a sentiment from All About You Stamp set under it with Black Licorice dye ink, then framed it with Sweet Stack Paper Pack after tying around some baker’s twine.





The frame was cut with A2 Rectangle STAX Set 1, A2 Rectangle STAX Set 2 and popped up on foam tape for dimension and I finished off with some sweet heart shaped enamel dots.

And that’s it from me today! Thanks so much for stopping by! See you back tomorrow for Day Four of MFT’s February Release Countdown!

If I Had 100 Hearts, They’d All Belong to You - MFTWSC #474






















Hi, everyone, I’m back with this week’s MFT Wednesday Sketch Challenge! Are you ready? Here’s this week’s sketch. All of the details about the sketch challenge are available on the MFT Blog as well as in the weekly newsletter. The MFT Design Team will be on hand to provide plenty of inspiration to get you started.



I just love this sketch!! I’ve done similar designs in the past and I love to mix sizes and colors for them. For this card, I started by dry embossing Lots of Heart Stencil on Sweet Tooth card stock and used it for the left panel. Then I popped up more Sweet Tooth card stock on foam tape for the right panel.

Next I cut lots of hearts from different colors of MFT card stock (Die-namics and card stocks I used are listed below) and arranged them, following the sketch.


























Some were adhered directly, some adhered with foam for dimension. Once I was pleased with the arrangement I heat embossed a sentiment from Smitten with You on Translucent Vellum with Ranger Silver Pearl embossing powder and adhered it with clear foam tape. I love it!

And there you have it! Remember, you can get all the details by visiting the MFT Blog. You have the chance to win a $50 in MFT voucher. One winner is chosen at random each week!

Now, it's your turn. You have until Wednesday, November 13, at noon EST to add your link and be eligible for the prize of $50 in MFT Cash to be spent in the MFT boutique. Winners are chosen at random, so everyone has a chance!

Thanks for stopping by today! See you soon!

I’m Smitten With You–Color Throwdown Challenge #578




























Hi everyone and welcome to a brand new
Color Throwdown Challenge! This week Lynn is our hostess and she’s got a sweet winter color combo for us.





For this card I used
MFT’s Impressive String of Hearts Die-namics along with silver hot foil to create this focal point on Sweet Tooth card stock. I colored the hears with Copic markers and highlighted with a white gel pen. I cut it with Elegant Rectangle STAX, matted it with Wild Cherry card stock similarly cut, and popped it up on a Cement Gray card stock base after tying around some baker’s twine.





















To finish off I added a sentiment from Smitten With You Stamp Set heat embossed on Black Licorice card stock cut with Skinny Strips Die-namics.

And that’s it from me! Remember, you do not have to have the exact colors to play the Color Throwdown challenge. If you don't, just use the closest you have. So, c'mon over to the Color Throwdown blog and play along with us this week. Please use the link service to post your card and please link directly to your card so we can find it easily. And please include a link in your post to the Color Throwdown. If you upload your card to a public forum, please use the keyword CTD578 so we can see your beauty all in one place, and use #ctd577 and #colorthrowdown on social media. Hope to see you there! Be sure to check out what the other team members have come up with this week, including our super talented January Guest Designer, Amy Tsuruta, who is joining us for another month since we only had two challenges in December!
