Inspired By …..

MFT-InspiredPoppy-wm

Hi everyone,

It’s day 2 of the MFTeasers, in preparation of the release of the new stamp sets which are all due to be released by MFT Stamps this coming Tuesday 6th September.

Today the Design Team are featuring one of the new stamp sets that will be released which is Inspired By Flowers (Set 3). This is a continuation of the flowers of the month sets.

For my card I used the Poppy flower from the set which is August’s flower of the month. I used the Die-namics Open Scallop Doily to layer under the poppy. Two new Die-namics make an appearance on this card and they are the Die-namics Prima Donna Petals  which I cut using red felt so it might resemble a poppy. The sentiment which btw is from the Inspired by Flowers (Set 2) was stamped on the new Die-namics Ticket Tab.

Here is the inside of my card. The sentiment is layered using the Die-namics Open Scallop Doily again. Along the bottom of my card I added the new Die-namics Woodgrain Fence, I just love this die and you will be seeing a lot more of it for my teasers this week.
