Striving For Success!

MFT-Stive-Success-wm

Hi everyone,

It’s that time again when the MFT Stamps designs team begins showing our MFTeasers in preparation of the new stamps which will be released by MFT Stamps after the release party this coming Wednesday 1st September.

Today the Design Team are featuring three of the new stamps to be released. These are “Tiny Town Halloween”; “Wendy Uppercase Alphabet”  and “Clearly Sentimental About Harvesting”.

For my teaser today I used the Clearly Sentimental About Harvesting set.  I used the MFT Die-namics Framed Greeting Die to stamp my sentiment on and also cut two more in red which I used to create the layers underneath.

The flowers are cut from My Favorite Felt - Veggie Garden Collection  using the new MFT Die-namics Perfect Petal Trio Die. And of course the ric rac border was created using the MFT Die-namics Ric Rac border die and the Creations Grosgrain Texture Board.

My card is also a sample for September’s Guest Designer challenge which is hosted by Cindy Haffner and I. Click HERE to find all the details about becoming MFT’s next Guest Designer!  :)

For the inside of my card I stamped another of the sentiments from the Clearly Sentimental About Harvesting stamp set and also added the ric rac border again.
