Birthday Wishes–MFT Color Challenge #135



























Hi, all, I'm back with the latest
MFT Color Challenge! Are you ready? Here’s this week’s color combo: Tropical Teal, Persimmon, Lemon Drop, and Limelight. 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.






It occurred to me that the flowers from the just released Freshly Picked Die-namics might work alone on a wreath so I decided to give it a try on this card. I know it’s just turned February but at the rate this year is going by already, Spring will be here before we know it and what’s better than a Spring birthday card?

To begin, I dry embossed Candy Stripes Stencil on Sweet Tooth card stock to give my otherwise plain background some interest, then popped it up on a Sweet Tooth card stock base with foam tape.

Then I cut a lot of the smaller-leafed Fab Foliage Die-namics from Limelight card stock, arranged it on the card front and adhered them with hot glue. Next I cut the flowers from Razzle Berry, Coral Crush, and Lemon Chiffon card stocks, arranged and adhered them on the wreath.





























To finish up, I cut Black Licorice card stock with Tag Builders Blueprints 5 Die-namics and heat embossed a sentiment from Little Birthday Notes Stamp Set, also popped up on foam tape.

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, February 19th, at noon Eastern 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! See you soon!

  1. Great use of the die to crate the wreath. I like the look of the embossing. Nice inspiration for the color challenge.
