warm winter wishes: MFT Stamps November Release Countdown



Welcome to the start of the MFT Stamps November Release Countdown! For the next few days we will be sharing projects featuring the new stamps, dies, stencils, and colors that will be releasing this month. You will be able to purchase any of the products you see over the next few days on Tuesday, November 3 at 9 pm Central.

The poinsettia image in the new stamp set, Winter Warmth, caught my eye right away! I love how it has three images, allowing you to stamp and layer! The holly leaves image is awesome too! Using those, I was able to make a cute and traditional Christmas card. I cut Sweet Tooth card stock with the coordinating die set, Die-namics Winter Warmth. When stamping coordinating images, I like to place the die cut paper onto a dark surface. The dark background really helps me line up my images better. For the ink colors I used, check the supply list at the bottom of my post.

On the Kraft card stock base, I stamped Polka Dot Background with Kraft ink. The striped piece of card stock was created with a new background image, Bold Diagonal Stripes and Poppy ink. This background image will never, ever leave my desk. Its perfect!

The sentiment was stamped in Field Day ink and uses the set released last month, Joyous Christmas Sentiments. I chose that color to coodinate with the holly leaves tucked in the poinsettia flowers.


These images came from the same set of coordinating stamps and dies! Winter Warmth is a fantastic mix of images! 

The scarf has two parts to the image, the solid base and the stripes. SO clever! Imagine all the color combinations you can create! I hung the scarf on a panel of Sweet Tooth card stock cut with 

The mittens are adorable and are two images, like the scarf. I added a piece of twine to "tie" them together. Winter Warmth comes with a string image and coordinating die. The sentiment is from a new stamp set called, Let's Get Cozy. Behind it, for some color, I stamped two different snowflakes from Winter Warmth.

The background of this card may be my favorite out of everything today! Winter Waves Background is a red rubber background stamp and the ideas are endless! Stay tuned as I will be featuring that image during the new product launch next Tuesday. On this card I stamped it with watermark ink and then heat embossed it with clear embossing powder. It creates a tone-on-tone look, but with texture, and I love it!

MFT Stamps March Release Rewind



Welcome back to one last peek at the March release products from MFT Stamps! As I get creating each month, I have lots of ideas, but not always the time to create them all. This post lets me share more looks at the fantastic new products. And this month, wow! There was a lot to choose from!

I am pretty excited about the way this card turned out! Lisa Johnson's new stamps, Circle Scribble Flowers, is a set I will not be putting down anytime soon! There are just so many possibilities with these stamps!

When I envisioned a dark background with flowers popping off, I had no idea if it would work, but with MFT's new pigment inks, it did! I started by stamping a large circle from Circle Scribble Flowers with Whip Cream Pigment ink onto After Midnight cardstock. Then I stamped a smaller circle with Peach Bellini Pigment ink. The scribbles were in Persimmon Pigment ink. the leaves in Limelight Pigment ink and Gumdrop Green Pigment ink. The way the ink sits on the paper is fantastic. Keep in mind that these inks take time to dry, so heat set them once you are finished stamping, or set the project aside and allow it to dry. But the time is totally worth it!

I added a small strip of gold metallic paper under the sentiment from Totally Happy to balance the dots I made on the background with my gold Sharpie marker.

And for a card that is completely opposite of the previous...a bright and happy card!

The small star border in the stamp set, Totally Happy, caught my eye right away! I wanted to stamp it down the entire front of a card, in rainbow colors, of course! (Yes, I have a thing for rainbow colors...have I shared my childhood bedroom with you yet? Remind me to share that sometime!)

I mixed the word happy from Die-namics Trio of Happy (this month's free with $60 purchase item) with part of a sentiment from Totally Happy. I cut the largest word happy from Blu Raspberry cardstock and layered four words together. The solid look from layering die cut words is just my favorite!

Visit the MFT Blog to see what the rest of the team has up their sleeves! Not to mention read about all the fun we have been having with sharing our pets! MFT has been giving away amazing prizes AND donating to some pretty special pet groups! Check it out!
