A MFT SKETCH

 

 

 

MFT is super excited to announce that Wednesday Stamp Club will now be centered around a weekly sketch.  We know your stamping time is precious, and we want you to maintain as much creative freedom as possible.  Sketches are the perfect starting point to a card.  Use it as a blueprint, and create a card using the stamp set and supplies that strike your fancy.  You can turn to the sketches time and again for creative inspiration.

Oh I just love sketches, they are my very most favorite challenge.  For my MFTWSC1 Sketch I used the brand new Inspired By- Music, this is a very ELEGANT set.  I also used Die-namics Banner Strip Die, Die-namics Jumbo Scallop Die and Die-namic Dainty Doily.  I cut the middle of the doily out so my paper could peek through.  I did some stitching on my card and added some PRETTY pearls.

 

Hope you can play~~

Hi everyone, did you enjoy the MFT Blog Hop last night??  Well now it is time for MFT Wednesday Stamp Club  (MFTWSC11172010). Today’s challenge is from the The Sound of Music song  -- My Favorite Things’

"Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens

Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens

Brown paper packages tied up with strings

These are a few of my favorite things

Cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudels

Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles

Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings

These are a few of my favorite things

Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes

Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes

Silver white winters that melt into springs

These are a few of my favorite things

When the dog bites

When the bee stings

When I'm feeling sad

I simply remember my favorite things

And then I don't feel so bad"

 

So you can make a card with the song in mind/or you can make a card with some of your Favorite Things.  Upload to SCS with the keyword (SCS Keyword MFTWSC11172010), I can’t wait to see what is your favorite thing!!
