Love Yourself!

Hi everyone!  Happy Wednesday!

Wednesday means another new MFT Sketch!  WOOT!!!  This week we have another FUN sketch!

As usual, I had SO much fun making my card!!!  I went VERY literal and used the same shapes (which are NOT required!) as shown on the sketch.  I pulled out the AMAZING Own Your Story set and stamped this quote onto Fossil Cardstock.  I cut it out with the Die-Namics Four Point Frame and then sponged the edges with Memento Potter's Clay for some definition.  I stamped the flouish, also from Own Your Story, in Baja Breeze Ink.

Using the Typewriter Alphabet, along with the AWESOME Die-Namics Fishtail Banner Dies, I created the "Love" banner.  I added eyelets to each banner and then strung it all up with some yummy twine!  A crystal flourish and tons of stitching complete the front!


For the inside, I added more of the same patterned paper, and yes, once again, you are seeing Lime Tart Happy Go Lucky paper on my blog, and added the simple "Love Yourself" sentiment from Own Your Story.  I added a heart cut with the Die-Namics Hearts A Plenty Die to finish it off.


Here are the Die-Namics I've used on my card today:
