Hooray for Happy Hour!

MFT alamodesMartinis wm

Hi everyone and happy Sunday! I hope you are all enjoying your weekend.

It’s day 5 of the MFTeasers and I have one more Teaser to share with you! Today the MFT Stamps Design Team are featuring more of the new sets that are to be released by MFT Stamps on Tuesday 3rd April.

The sets being shown today are “à la modes An Apple for Teacher” and “à la modes Martinis on Me”.

For my card today I used the à la modes Martinis on Me stamp set, don’t you just love her!!!! The à la modes image is stamped on to white card and die cut using the Die-namics Circle Stax 1 & 2. I have used the Die-namics Fishtail Flags Stax for the panel underneath the circle. I cut out two martini glasses using the Die-namics Let’s Toast die cutting the glasses in clear and pink card. The sentiment is stamped onto the smaller ribbon from the Die-namics First Place Award Ribbon
