Hello and welcome to an exciting week of the My Favorite Things October Release Countdown! Be sure to head over to the MFT Blog to see today’s full product reveals AND enter for your chance to win a $75 gift voucher on each of the 7 countdown day blog posts there!
My card uses these products being featured/revealed today: Christmas Label and Tag stamp set and coordinating Christmas Label and Tag Die-namics, Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-namics. <== Did you see that, folks?!! More fabulous STITCHED basic shape dies from MFT ... I am SO excited about these!! Stitched ANYTHING is a hot trend and I LOVE it!!
(I'm also giving you a little sneak peek of a few of tomorrow's featured products: the gorgeous Snowflake Fusion Cover-Up and Pierced Snowflakes)!
I used this week's brand new MFT Wednesday Stamp Club Sketch #197 for the layout of my card. I chose to use the wonky panel to be a window looking out onto the falling snow, with one giant (gorgeous) silver glittery Pierced Snowflake in the window!
The Snowflake Fusion Cover-Up background was die cut from Primitive White cardstock and then backed with Sno Cone cardstock. The panel was mounted with foam tape to a Steel Grey card base. The "window" was die cut using two of the new Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-namics to create a frame -- I hope you can see the lovely stitched detail in this closeup:
The window frame was stamped with the new Snowfall Background and Whip Cream Pigment Ink, then backed with Vellum. It is also popped up on foam tape. The gorgeous new Christmas Label was stamped with Versamark onto its pretty coordinating Christmas Label Die-namics (I love this shape!), cut from Wild Cherry cardstock and silver embossed -- I love these fonts and the stitched detail on this label, too! The label was popped up on foam tape over a Sno Cone Medium Fancy Flourish which was added to represent the banner element in the sketch.
All the new products will be available for purchase on October 14 at 10pm Eastern in the MFT Boutique. During this countdown you can enter to win some HUGE prizes over on the MFT blog . . . where you will also find links to the other design team members that are sharing samples using today’s featured products!
Thanks so much for stopping by … I’ll be back on Friday with more October release inspiration!
