MFT Countdown: 3

And just like that, we meet again!

We’re halfway through the countdown to the April release from My Favorite Things. Yep. You guessed it! I’ve got a couple more cards to share with you today.

Shall we? We shall!

Meet card #1.

So this card involved a bit of die-cutting and piecing things together to make the little scene. The flowers, tools, bench and birdhouse are all from the new Spring Garden Die-namics, which arrive on April 7th at My Favorite Things (along with the rest of the April release).

To create the flowers, I stacked some of them together and then just used a white paint pen to add a little dab to the centers. I tend to use a lot of enamel dots and bling these days , but sometimes you just want a cute card that is super flat and easily mailable (aka: won’t cost you an arm and a leg to send it). A pen is nice tool to use rather than those chunky embellishments.

And this is card #2.

I again used the Spring Garden Die-namics to create the little scene. Behind the little banner (cut with Blueprints 24 Die-namics) is a little flourish-y frame that (cough) you’ll be hearing more about later in the week.

For the centers, I just cut a couple sequins from white cardstock using some of the dies from Blueprints 24.

So that’s what I have for you today.

Here’s a list of MFT products I used to make these cards:

• Blueprints 24 Die-namics (lands on April 7th at MFT)
• Spring Garden Die-namics (lands on April 7th at MFT)
• PI – Heart Bouquet Stamp Set (lands on April 7th at MFT)
• Happy Trio Die-namics
• Totally Happy Stamp Set

And, once again, be sure to hit the MFT Blog to see who else is sharing projects today. I can assure you this: LOTS of good stuff to be found. I might have peeked. Might have. 😉

Hope you will cruise on by tomorrow.
