It's MFT VIP Time...and the Surf's Up!

Hi everyone!  Happy Tuesday!  It's that time of the month again...it's MFT VIP Time!  YAY!  Here is this month's AWESOME offering...the Surf's Up VIP Collection!   LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!  This is what is included:

Pure Innocence Surf Chick stamp set

Pure Innocence Surfer Dude stamp set

Surf's Up Sentiments mini (VIP exclusive stamp set - will never be offered for sale or be available again $9 value, FREE)

Jumbo Squiggle Border Die-namics

Sentiment Strips Die-namics

These two cuties were both my concept, so I am a tad bit excited that they are this month's VIP Collection!  To start, I have a card using the ADORABLE Pure Innocence Surf Chick!   I stamped her onto X Press It Blending Card, colored her with Copic Markers and then fussy cut her out.  I paper pieced her board with the same papers I've used on my card, Beach Babe by Fancy Pants.  I added two borders...one using the Wonky Scallop Border Die-Namics and one with the new Jumbo Squiggle Border Die-Namics...love!

I added a double flower cut with the Hibiscus Die-Namics (I adore this flower) and added it to my card to anchor my sentiment, "Ride The Waves", which is from the exclusive Surf's Up Sentiments Mini.  I stamped this onto a panel cut with the new Sentiment Strips Die-Namics.  Can I just say SWOON?  Where have these been all my life.  You are going to see me use these ALOT...(like Fishtail Flags STAX Die-Namics alot...lol).

I popped her up onto two layered circle panels cut with the Circle STAX 1 Die-Namics and Circle STAX 2 Die-Namics.  I embossed the Kraft circle using the Square Lattice Embossing Folder and added a rhinestone circle for some pop. I also added LOTS of stitching with my Janome Sew Mini.

The inside is REALLY simple...I let this piece of patterned paper do most of the work.  I added stitching, rhinestones and another sentiment from the Surf's Up Mini Sentiments, "Happiness Is A Day Spent At The Beach".  

Here are the Copic Markers I've used on my card:

And here are the Die-Namics I've used on my card:

Next up I have a card to share with you using the new Pure Innocence Surfer Dude!  Isn't he SO cute?  I stamped him onto X Press It Blending Card, colored him with Copic Markers and then cut him out.  I paper pieced his board with the same papers I used on the rest of the card, Paradise Beach from Echo Park Papers, and I then added two coats of Glossy Accents to make his board shine.  I popped him up onto two layered circles cut with the Circle STAX 1 Die-Namics and Circle STAX 2 Die-Namics, and the Sno Cone circle was embossed with the Seeing Spots Embossing Folder.

Here is a closeup of him...I think he is SO cute!

I used a panel cut with one of the new Sentiment Strips Die-Namics (still swooning) to stamp my sentiment, "Feeling Gnarly?", from the Surf's Up Mini Sentiments.  I also added a trio of flags cut with the Fishtail Flags STAX Die-Namics and lots of stitching.

On the inside I added more patterned paper, lots more stitching, along with another sentiment from the Surf's Up Mini Sentiments, "Hope You Are Back on The Waves Soon".  LOVE this for a get well soon card!

Here are the Copic Markers I've used on my card:
