MFT PIBerrySweet wm

For my project today I created a card, basket and strawberries using the MFT Stamps PI Berry Sweet Stamp set and the MFT Die-namics Strawberry die, both are being release tonight.

Let’s start with my card which is a Slit Latch card, the top and bottom layer of the right side of my card have slits in them so that they interlock together.

Here you can see the slit in the top right corner of the front of my card. the slit goes to the middle point of the card about 1inch in from the edge and on the inside the slit is on the bottom.

I love this little PI’s dress as it resembles a strawberry, this was paper pieced using designer paper.

The image is layered onto the MFT Stamps Die-namics Oval Decorative Doily die. I have also used the new Die-namics Rolled Scallop Flower and one of the pennants from the Die-namics Mini Wavy Pennant die.

Here is the inside of my card, I used one of the sentiments from the PI Berry Sweet stamp set. The oval is from the Die-namics Sweet Stack Labels die and this was layered onto the Die-namics Decorative Doily Duo Die which is another of the new Die-namics to be released tonight.

One of the new Die-namics which is to be released tonight is the Die-namics Strawberry Box. I am so excited that this die is being released it is lots of fun. You can pop a few treats inside the strawberry before closing up the box.

MFT PIBerrySweetBasket

I needed something to hold the strawberries that I created, so I decided to make a basket to hold them.
