MFTeasers: Day One!



Hi everyone!! Happy Friday! Welcome to the first day of MFT Teasers! This release is OUT of control fabulous!! I can't even WAIT for you to see all the new stamps and Die-Namics being released!!! Shall we get started?

Today, I have peeks of TWO amazing sets to share with you, The Great Outdoors and Fred Bear Out West!

I was SO inspired by the new Great Outdoors set, not to mention the new Die-Namics that are PERFECT with this set!! I created a SUPER simple little set of cards using only the sentiments in the set and Die-Namics! I created three and they are all 3.5 X 3.5.


Here is a picture of all three of them together...they make me happy!



For the first card, and my personal favorite of all three, I used the sentiment, "Behind the clouds, the sun is still shining" and I used the Die-Namics Sunshine Die and the brand new, and totally FABULOUS Die-Namics Flat Bottom Cloud Die. LOVE.THESE.CLOUDS.



For the second card, I used the beautiful sentiment, "We can't all be stars, but we can all twinkle" and created the stars with the Die-Namics Stacking Stars Die.



For the last card in the grouping, I used the "Go fly a kite" sentiment (LOVE) and the brand new Die-Namics Fly A Kite Die (LOVE), along with the Die-Namics Clouds. Isn't that kite FAB? Totally love it!











The second set I get to share with you today is everyone's favorite bear, Fred! This time, Fred hits the West in Fred Bear Out West. I had ALOT of fun creating this cutie!

I started by stamping, masking and stamping the cactus from this set onto X Press It Blending Card and colored them with Copic Markers. I then added Fred to the mix and colored him with Copic Markers too.

The patterned paper is Crate Paper Restoration and I added a crimped corner to the focal panel ala the fabulous Inge. I added a twine lasso (this was fun!) and created a little Wanted poster for Fred to hold. Some lace, machine stitching and brads finish the front of this one off.



For the inside, I used more of the same patterned paper, and added the SUPER fun sentiment, "You Spin My Spurs". A border created with the Die-Namics Star Border complete this one.





Thanks SO much for stopping by!! Please head on over to Kim's Blog for a list of all the designers previewing new sets today!
