MFT October Vault Release is Available for Purchase!

 

Hey there and welcome to MFT's October Vault Release! It's all available for purchase right now in the MFT Online Boutique!! Be sure to stop by the MFT Blog for all the details!

Today I'm using another couple of products that just broke my heart when they retired so I'm absolutely THRILLED to see them back!! Modern Trees Stamp Set and Die-namics became a staple in my stamp room and although I used them for every season--this is the first time I've used them for all FOUR seasons on one card! I had so much FUN making this card it ought to be against the law!

To begin, I trimmed an A2 panel of Strathmore Bristol Smooth card stock down to 5" x 3 3/4" and then into quarters. I knew I'd be sponging backgrounds, thus the Strathmore paper. Once that was done I sponged my backgrounds using various inks (listed below) and drifts & Hills Stencil and popped them up on a Sweet Tooth card stock base with foam tape. 

I've found it easier to do the die-cuts first and then align the stamps for this set so once I got all my trunks done I added leaves in seasonal colors and simply added some Nuvo Amplify to the Winter version and popped them up on foam onto their corresponding backgrounds. I added suns to two, cut with A2 Stitched Circle STAX and Petite Clouds to some as well.

I finished off with the PERFECT sentiment from Little Birthday Notes Stamp Set and heat embossed it on Milk Chocolate card stock cut with Skinny Strips for the finish!

Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope I've given you some ideas for YOUR new MFT October Vault goodies!! See you soon!
