I have a couple of cards to show you using January products starting with this one using  Linked Chain Oval Frames Die-namics, 100% Lovable Stamp Set, From the Heart Stamp Set, and the new Black & White Stripes Paper Pack.

My Favorite Things January Release Countdown, Day One

Hey, everyone!  Tonight’s the night! MFT’s January Release will be available for purchase at 9pm, Eastern so set your alarms! Be sure to check by the MFT Blog for all the details. Today we’re previewing Stitched Heart Peek-a-Boo Window Die-namics - Free with $60, Heart Shaker Pouches, Heart Maze Shapes – White, Heart Maze Shapes - Wild Cherry, Maze Spheres, Sending a Smile Stamp Set, Sending a Smile Die-namics, Hybrid Ink Cubes - Set 14, Hybrid Ink Cubes - Set 17, and Hybrid Ink Cubes - Set 20.

Heart-shaped mazes—yes, please!!! I decided to build one into a little scene including the already previewed Raving Raccoons Stamp Set and Die-namics. First I sponged my sky and added a little more ink through Full of Heart Stencil. Then I cut with Stitched Peek-a-Boo Heart Window Die-namics and created my maze element using Heart Shaker Pouches, Wild Cherry Maze Shapes and Maze Spheres. I stamped two little hearts with in the maze from From the Heart Stamp set for a little play on the sentiment.



I added some Sour Apple card stock cut with Grassy Hills Die-namics and stamped with the sentiment, and my adorable Raving Raccoons Stamp Set and Die-namics, colored with Copic markers. To finish off I added some Puffy Clouds Die-namics.
*****

Up next is a card also using Sending a Smile Stamp Set and Die-namics.



First I created a shaker element using Stitched Peek-a-Boo Heart Window, acetate card stock, foam mounting tape, and sequins, cut into a watercolor washed background.



The images were stamped with Extreme Black hybrid ink, colored with Copic markers and popped up on foam tape. A heat embossed sentiment finished it off.

And that’s all the my sneak peeks for MFT’s January Release Countdown! Thanks so much for stopping by! Hope to see you tonight for New Product Release!

My Favorite Things January Release Countdown, Day Two

Hello and welcome to Day Two of MFT’s January Release Countdown! it’s getting close! Release is tomorrow night, January 9th, at 9pm Eastern. Be sure to set your clock and check by the MFT Blog for all the details. Today we’re previewing Valentine Wishes Stamp Set, 100% Lovable Stamp Set, Full of Heart Die-namics, Full of Heart Stencil, Monster Sized Stamp Set, Monster Sized Die-namics, Stitched Star Peek-a-Boo Window Die-namics - previous Free with $60, and Star Shaker Pouches.

Valentine monsters are the cutest, don’t you think? These are certainly adorable! For my card front, I dry embossed Full of Heart Stencil on Sweet Tooth card stock and popped it up on my Sweet Tooth card stock base. Then I added the Marble Background stamped “LOVE” that was left over from yesterday’s card, also on foam, and added the sentiment heat embossed on Black Licorice card stock cut with Blueprints 31.



The images were stamped with the new Extreme Black hybrid ink, colored with Copic markers, and popped up on foam, as well. I’m not sure what to call the starburst thingies but I cut them from Silver Sparkle card stock and adhered them directly to the card front.
*****

I love this card and had so much fun making it!



Working directly on a Sweet Tooth card stock card base, I stamped the sentiment from 100% Lovable Stamp Set with Extreme Black hybrid ink. Then I cut some Ranger Watercolor Paper with Full of Heart Die-namics and colored the hearts with bold values of conversation hearts candies.

Then I arranged them the way I wanted and popped them up on foam bits. To finish, I added some Sparkling Clear Mix Sequins.

And that’s it from me today! Thanks so much for stopping by! See you soon!

My Favorite Things January Release Countdown, Day Three

Hey there, welcome to Day Three of MFT’s January Release Countdown! We’re halfway to release and we have lots more to show you. Today we’re previewing PI Blowing Kisses Stamp Set, PI Blowing Kisses Die-namics, Brushstroke Blooms Stamp Set, Brushstroke Blooms Die-namics, Love You Die-namics, Marble Background, and Be Mine Banner Die-namics. Remember that Release is on January 9th at 9pm Eastern, and be sure to stop by the MFT Blog for all the details.

My first card today uses the awesome new stamp, Marble Background. I can tell I’m going to be using this A LOT! I stamped it on Sweet Tooth card stock with Gravel Gray dye ink and then cut it with Love You Die-namics and created a shaker element from that (my shaker contents are listed below).



Before I popped it up on foam on the card base, I tied around some baker’s twine then added some fun and bright heart die cuts to the bottom.
*****

Next up is PI Blowing Kisses Stamp Set and PI Blowing Kisses Die-namics.



I used Marble Background again on this card, added a Tall Tag Duo element (trimmed off the top) and the new patterned paper, Black & White Stripes. LOVE THIS so much! I’ve been hoarding this paper from Black & White Basics and now I don’t have to any more! Next I added Stitched Heart STAX cut from Tiny Hearts Brights Paper Pack and the heat embossed sentiment.



The star of the show was stamped with the new Extreme Black hybrid ink and colored with Copics before also being popped up on foam.

And that’s it for today! Thanks SO much for stopping by! See you back tomorrow for Day Two of MFT’s January Release Countdown!
