MFTeasers: Day Five!


Hi everyone!  Happy Sunday!  Today is the fifth day of MFTeasers for the newest My Favorite Things release!  Today sure is a fun day of Teasers...it's á la modes time!

We have two fabulous new á la modes up to bat this month, The á la modes in Disco Queen and The á la modes in Knit Happens, and since they are so darn sassy, I had to make a sample with each of them!

First up, The á la modes in Disco Queen.  How groovy is she?  I've paired her with some new Authentique paper, Free Bird Comfort and Warmth.  She is colored with Copic Markers and her disco ball is super duper sparkly.  The sentiment, "Hey Foxy Mama" was stamped onto a panel cut with the Ticket Tab Die-Namics.  I added a flower cut with the Pretty Posies Die-Namics and in the center I added a peace sign (woot!) cut with the new Peace Signs Die-namics.

Lots of stitching, some black brads, and two more peace signs for good measure complete the front.


For the inside I added some more patterned paper, and stamped this foxy mama again, this time in Old Olive ink, and added some more brads and yet another peace sign.


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




Next up is The á la modes in Knit Happens.  How cute is she?  My Mother In Law knits so this is a great set to have on hand when I want to create a card for her! 

I stamped her and colored her with Copic Markers. All of the patterned paper is Darling Dear from My Minds Eye and I embossed the background panel with the Square Lattice Embossing Folder.  I split my sentiment by cutting my stamp (lol...yes, I said cutting my stamp) and just used "Without You" on the front, which I stamped onto a panel cut with the Ticket Tab Die-Namics

I added some selective stitching and  a border cut with the new Crown Border Die-Namics (LOVE).  I used My Favorite Felt in Puff Cloud White with the new Loopy Bloom Die-Namics to create the flower, and once it was rolled up, I cut the loops for a different, fun look.



On the inside I added some more patterned paper, selective stitching, and the rest of the sentiment, "I'd come unraveled", which I featured on the Sweet Stack Labels Die-Namics.  The extra circle layer is from the First Place Award Ribbon Die-namics.


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







Speaking of Die-Namics, here is some exciting news!  Starting on November 1 at 10 PM EST, most Die-Namics dies will be available for purchase with OR WITHOUT the stamp set!   If there were any Die-Namics you had your eye on, for example, the Tag Your'e It Die-namics or the First Place Award Ribbon Die-Namics, and wanted to purchase without the coordinating stamp set, you will be able to!  SO awesome right?
