Hello, BOOTIFUL–MFT August Hits & Highlights Design Team Challenge

Hello, all, welcome to the August MFT Hits & Highlights Design Team Challenge! Our mission is to use sliders on our cards or projects this month.

Slip, slide, and twist your way to interactive cards featuring scenes with movement, created with our range of slider discs and elements. Assembling slider mechanisms is a breeze with these products sized to perfectly fit within your slider channels. Combine movement with virtually any characters in your collection to add even more versatility to your crafting arsenal. As always, our team is an unending source of inspiration.




I thought it would be cute to use Slider Channel Builder Die-namics and Slider Channel Companion Window Die-namics to create an interactive sentiment element on my card today. The background was done using Mini Cloud Edges Stencil and, top to bottom, Nightshift Blue dye ink, Grape Jelly dye ink, and Orange Fizz dye ink, The grass at the bottom was done by flicking Copic Markers in several greens from the edge up until it was filled in.



Images are all from BB Fab-BOO-lous Friends and BB Fab-BOO-lous Friends Die-namics, stamped with Black Licorice hybrid ink on No-Line Coloring Card Stock and colored with Copic Markers. The interactive strip was stamped with “PULL” from Interactive Labels stamp set. When I cut out the window, I saved that strip and adhered it back on the interactive pull strip so it blends with the rest of the background until the strip is pulled. The little witch image is popped up on two layer of foam mounting tape and acts as a stop when pulled out. Another super fun card to create!

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

You Amaze Me - MFT Color Challenge #76

Hi, all, I'm back with the latest MFT Color Challenge! Are you ready? Here’s this week’s color combo: Steel Blue, Ripe Raspberry, Tropical Teal, and Cornflower. All of the details about the color challenge are available on the MFT Challenge & Inspiration 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’ll admit these colors stumped me for a while! Then I decided to think big—as in big swatches of the colors and started looking at dies, spied Chevron Segments Cover-Up Die-namics and knew this was it! First I cut my segments from card stock in the challenge colors, placed them in my MISTI and stamped them all at once with Versamark and Bundles of Blossoms Background. I wanted subtle images but lots of them and this worked perfectly.



Next I adhered the pieces to a Sweet Tooth card stock base, using a template created but cutting the die from white card stock, added the sentiment, from All About You, heat embossed on Black Licorice card stock, and the “You” from You Trio Die-namics, cut from Silver Sparkle card stock and called it done!

And there you have it! Remember, you can get all the details by visiting the MFT Challenge Blog. You have the chance to win a $20 in MFT voucher. One winner is chosen at random each week!

Thanks for stopping by! See you soon!
