Life is too Short!

Hi everyone,
It’s challenge time again over on the Riley and Company blog. This time round it is Joy’s turn to host the challenge.
Joy has challenged us to create a monochromatic card.
For my card I used Riley and Company’s Life is too short to worry Funny Bones sentiment.
The layout of my card is a recent Mojo sketch (mojo328).

Fall!

Hi everyone,

It’s challenge time again with my friends over on the CCEE Stampers challenge blog. Vicki Gould continues to bring us this month’s challenges.

This week Vicki has challenged us to Make a Fall/Thanksgiving card.

I have been wanting to play with this Fall Boy image from Alota Rubber Stamps for a while now so I decided to use that for this week’s challenge.

I used a recent Mojo sketch (Mojo265) for the layout of my card. I also added some leaves which I created using the MFT Die-namics Fall Leaves set and Thankful Leaves stamp set.

Don’t forget to check out the CCEE Stampers blog (goes live 12 AM EST) to see the rest of the creations the CCEE Stampers created this week. You can also see more details of their creations on their individual blogs:

MFTeaser–Pure Innocence!

Hi everyone,

I have another couple of MFTeasers to share with you all today in readiness of the MFT Stamps new release, this coming Tuesday 1st May.

The PI’s to be released include: PI Baseball Boy; PI Goldfish Girl; PI Home Sweet Home; PI Giraffe Girl; Freckles and PI All Occasion Sentiments.

For my first card today I used the MFT Stamps PI Home Sweet Home stamp set. As you can see I created a house shaped card, I paper pieced the girls outfit. I used the Die-namics Fresh Cut Grass for the bottom of the card. I also used the new Die-namics Squiggle Border along the edge of my roof.

Here is the inside of my card. I stamped the girl and one of the sentiments from the set. I also used the Die-namics Squiggle border along the edge of the designer paper.

Die-namics: Squiggle Border; Fresh Cut Grass – MFT Stamps

Other: Black Ink; Sizzix Eclips; My Scrap Chick House SVG; Brad; Foam Tape; Copics

For my second card I used the Pure Innocence Freckles stamp set, what a cutie!!!! After stamping it onto my white card I cut it out using MFT Die-namics Oval STAX Set 1 and Die-namics Oval STAX Set 2. I have also used the Die-namics Fishtail Flags STAX for the panel on the left side of the girl. On the bottom corner of my card I added a photo corner from the Die-namics Photo Corners set. And finally I added the sentiment using the Die-namics Chat Bubbles set, I shorted the chat bubble by putting it back into the die at a different place after I cut it the first time.

I finished the front of the card off by adding some Grosgrain Ribbon Sno Cone to tie a bow.

Here is the inside of my card. I used one of the sentiments from the PI Freckles stamp set. The sentiment is layered using the Die-namics Framed Greetings and Die-namics Sweet Stack Labels dies. I also added a panel using the Die-namics Fishtail Flags STAX …. I love this set!

MFTeaser–Pure Innocence!

Hi everyone,

I have another couple of MFTeasers to share with you all today in readiness of the MFT Stamps new release, this coming Tuesday 3rd April.

Today the MFT Design team are featuring the “Pure Innocence” range, and this month there will be six brand new Pure Innocence sets to be released … you are going to love them!!!!!! The PI’s to be released include: PI Policeman; PI Policewoman; PI Dress Up Diva; PI Magician; PI Scientist; Mouse in the House – Do Not Disturb This Mouse.

For my first card today I used the MFT Stamps PI Policewoman stamp set. The layout of this card uses the SFYTT sketch for March (better late then never hehe). For the panel on the right side of my card I used the Die-namic Fishtail Flags Stax. The sentiment is stamped onto a circle cut using the Die-namics Circle Stax 1 & then layered onto one of the Die-namics Mini Doily Circles … these are the perfect size for sentiments!!!!!

Here is the inside of my card. I added a sentiment to the top portion of my card and added a border at the top edge of the designer paper using the Die-namics Chevron Stripes Border, there are sooooo many ways you can use this border die-namics.

For my second card today I used the PI Policeman stamp set … another cutie for sure! This time round I used a recent Mojo 233 sketch for the layout of my card. I used the Die-namics Circle Stax 1 & 2 for the sentiment and I have also used the Die-namics Pinking Edge die along the right side of my dividing panel on my card.

Here is the inside of my card. I added one of the sentiments from the set and also stamped the PI Policeman again. You can also see the Die-namic Pinking Edge border to the right of the designer paper.

Happy Trails To You!

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 March.

Today the Design Team are featuring 3 stamps sets. I am sharing with you a card I created using the Flopsey Goes Camping stamp set. I always love Flopsey, he is such an adorable rabbit don’t you think!

I used a recent Mojo Sketch (Mojo 229) for the layout of my card. The campfire is a extra stamp so you have options as to whether to use it with Flopsey or not. The sentiment is stamped onto the smaller ribbon from the MFT Die-namics  First Class Award Ribbon die set.

Here is the inside of my card. I stamped Flopsey again on the bottom right hand corner of my card and also added one of the sentiments from the set next to him. I also added one of the newest Die-namics dies to the border which is the Die-namics Mini Monarch Border.

Here are the details about the upcoming release on March 6th at 10 PM EST:
