My Heart Wears a Smile Because of You–MFT Color Challenge #133





Hi, all, I'm back with the latest MFT Color Challenge! Are you ready? Here’s this week’s color combo: Grout Gray, Electric Red, Gravel Gray, and Tickled Pink. All of the details about the color 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 thought these colors would be perfect for a Valentine’s Day card so I started looking through product and when I saw this sentiment I knew I’d found my theme. First off I cut a Sweet Tooth card stock panel with A2 Rectangle STAX Die-namics and then cut the center out with Stitched Heart STAX Die-namics to created a shaker window. I created the shaker element, backed it with more Sweet Tooth card stock and adhered it to a Grout Gray card stock base. Next I cut several 1/4” strips from card stock in the challenge colors, taped them together, and cut them out with Big Smile Die-namics.




Next I heat embossed the sentiment from Smile Maker Stamp Set on Gravel Gray card stock cut with Stitched Fishtail Sentiment Strips Die-namics and adhered it over the heart shaker window with foam tape. I popped up the Big Smile die cut right above it on foam tape and finished off with small hearts cut from Silver Sparkle card stock with Tag Builder Blueprints 5 Die-namics,

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!
