MFTeaser Day 1!

MFT Sympathy 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 Tuesday 2nd August.

Today the Design Team are featuring two of the new stamps to be released. These are “ By The Numbers Die-namics and Stamp Set” and “Clearly Sentimental About Sympathy”.

For my card today I decided to use Clearly Sentiment About Sympathy. Sympathy cards are cards that none of us really enjoy making, but we all need to at one time or other unfortunately and it helps if we have a stamp set that we can turn to to use. The sentiments in this set are just awesome, I am in love with this set.

I used the Die-namics Well Worn Greetings for my sentiment. Along the bottom edge of my card the border is created using the Die-namics Double Scallop Border. I also used two of the new Die-namics being released on Tuesday, these are the Rolled Retro Flower and the Fancy Flourish dies. I am just loving these two new dies as you will see as the teasers progress.
