Inspired By!

MFT-InspiredBird-wm

Hi All!

It’s Day 4 of the MFTeasers and I have another card to share with you! Today the MFT Stamps Design Team are featuring three more of the new sets that are to be released by MFT Stamps on Wednesday 6th October.

The sets being shown today are called Flapper Doodles in the Kitchen; Be Inspired – Cage Bird and Jolinne – I’m Sorry.

For my card today I used the Be Inspired – Cage Bird stamp set. This is a brand new range of stamps that MFT will be releasing. I have been wanting to create a card using the brick wall technique for some time now and finally got around to doing it.

On the front of my card I used three MFT Die-namics …. these are:

  • Button Quartet die which is a brand new die going to be released this week.
  • Notebook Edge die
  • Rounded Banner die

Here is the inside of my card, I used one of the sentiments included in the set and also another MFT Die-namic die…. this one is the Scalloped Scallop Die.

This is such a great resource that you are providing and you give it away for free. I love seeing websites that understand the value of providing a quality resource for free. It?s the old what goes around comes around routine.
