Hi everyone! Happy Tuesday!
It’s time! The incredible new MFT Release is available right now, right HERE in the MFT Boutique!
The MFT Design Team is sharing inspiration tonight using each and every new product from this release! I am SUPER excited to feature the fantastic Take The Stage Die-namics! I was super inspired, and I have two cards to share with you! My first card also features the new Pure Innocence Heartstrings, Pure Innocence Heartstrings Die-namics, BB The Whole Herd and BB The Whole Herd Die-namics!
For this card, I was SO inspired by this sweet new Pure Innocence Heartstrings, and I thought I’d create a honky tonk ala Urban Cowboy for her to perform in! This was SO fun to create! I started by cutting her out from X-Press It Blending Card and then stamped her using Pure Innocence Heartstrings using Black Licorice Hybrid Ink. I colored her with Copic Markers and then cut out two hay bales using the BB The Whole Herd Die-namics and then stamped them with BB The Whole Herd using Black Licorice Hybrid Ink and colored them with Copic Markers.
I cut the stage using Brown Paper Bag Prestige Card Stock and sponged the edges with Kraft Premium Dye Ink. I used Blueprints 1 Die-namics to cut a panel of Hot Fudge Card Stock and stamped the panel using the Western Backgrounds and Hot Fudge Premium Dye Ink. This was the perfect floor to my stage. Once I had the stage assembled, I added bows of Hemp Cord to each side of the curtain. I then popped up the hay bales and sweet little guitarist using Jody Boosters. I cut a panel of Smooth White Card Stock using Blueprints 14 Die-namics, and stamped “HOGS & KISSES” from BB The Whole Herd using Black Licorice Hybrid Ink. I thought it was a cute name for my Honky Tonk! I used the little hanger die from the Dog House Die-namics to “hang” my sign from the curtain.
My second card features the Take The Stage Die-namics again, as well as the new Pure Innocence Perfect Harmony and Pure Innocence Perfect Harmony Die-namics! For this card, I went more Celine Dion then Urban Cowboy!
Isn’t this sweet new Pure Innocence SO pretty? I love her! I cut her from X-Press It Blending Card using the Pure Innocence Perfect Harmony Die-namics and stamped her with Pure Innocence Perfect Harmony and colored her with Copic Markers. I added some shimmery glitter to her dress for lots of sparkle and shine!
The stage was cut from Wild Cherry Card Stock and I sponged the edges of each panel using Wild Cherry Premium Dye Ink. The curtain tie backs were cut from Daffodil Prestige Card Stock. The stage floor was cut from Kraft Card Stock and stamped with Kraft Premium Dye Ink using the Western Backgrounds set. After assembling the stage, I popped this cutie up with Jody Boosters and then arranged 11mm Silver Star Confetti and 6mm Sparkling Clear Sequins along with rhinestones all around her. SO sparkly! I cut a panel of Smooth White Card Stock using the Fishtail Flags STAX Die-namics, running it through my Big Shot twice so that both edges are flagged. I stamped the sentiment, “Happy Birthday toooo Yoooou” using Black Licorice Hybrid Ink. Love that!
Thanks SO much for stopping by! Please head on over to the MFT Blog for a listing of all the designers, and to find out how to get a chance at an MFT Gift Certificate!
