From the Scrap Pile

I had need of a few cards so I thought it would be fun to go through my little scrap bin and see what I could come up with... I've created two cards with items exclusively from there!

This first card was fun because there were actually a few options in the pile. Yes... so many little items I cut or stamp that never make it onto a card.

 I can remember why I cut or stamped each element too... and why it didn't get used then.

Take for instance this stenciled panel... 

 I created two cards from a whole sheet that I made when the stencil was released.... and kept this scrap. Didn't even have to trim it! LOL!

These Pieced Fishtail flags were from this past release.... the script was stamped in the wrong direction for the card I had meant it for... so it got "saved" LOL!

I hope this inspires you to pull out some scraps and see what you can create with them!

Thanks for poppying by, friends!

 

A Piece of Home

Two of my daughters are away from home on missions for our church. One is serving in Utah and desperately misses the ocean. So this is a little project of love. 
I gathered sand from a local beach, making sure that there were shells and little beach treasures included. A rock with barnacles and such. The little bottle I found at Rite Aid of all places. 

The little tag has some sweet instructions for Hannah to follow when she needs to get a beach fix... or remember how much we love her. This is just why I love to create. I sent a little piece of my heart to her and hopefully she feels that when days are hard.

Together Forever Finale

Welcome back friends! I've got a few more Together Forever cards to share with you... and all the new June MFT products are available to purchase!!! 

This card is perfect for several occasions...

Wedding, graduation... all occasion... just because. I mean who doesn't want a happy forever! The happy forever sentiment from Together Forever that has been inked with Sour Apple and Blu Raspberry.

I've also used ALL of the new Background sets that are new this month to add some patterns to the card. Pierced Fishtail Flags STAX are used on both the front...

And the inside. I really love these!

Next is a true blue wedding card...lots of light gold glitter and elegance!

I went with the lavish pink/gold combo. I used the new cover plate too.
...is embossed in gold fine detail powder.

The sentiment on the inside is also embossed.

Glitzy and fun for sure!

Now for something different... a graduation card!

I had fun creating this card. There are little elements all over from various stamp sets. I'll list them last in the supply list.

This Together Forever sentiment is PERFECT for any special day too. I've heat embossed it in white.

 

The inside is finished off nicely with coordinating elements!

To a Very Special Bride & Groom

Hello friends... I hope that you had a great weekend! I've got another quick Together Forever card to share... only a few more hours left in this MFT release!

Yellow and gray seem to be hot wedding colors. I used the new Pierced Fishtail Flags STAX to create the layers.

The Together Forever sentiment is heat embossed in silver.

Something simple for the inside... 

This sentiment is so pretty that it really doesn't need anything else to dress the inside up!

That's a wrap...

Happy For You Both

One of the best things about larger sentiments is that you can create backgrounds with them! That's what this card is all about! 

Combining Together Forever and Ampersand Die-namics to make a fun card front... and nice and flat for mailing too! 

I used a grid lined acrylic block to line everything up and that really helped.  Bright bold colors are great for happy occasions too!

There is another sentiment in Together Forever that coordinates perfectly with the one on the front of the card.  

We have five days left in this MFT June Release Countdown. All the new products will be available to purchase starting on June10th at 10 pm Eastern time (7pm Pacific). During this countdown you can enter to win COOL prizes over on the MFT blog.

Love Grows

Welcome back friends! I've got a country style card to share with you today that shows off a few new MFT products...

This Together Forever sentiment lends itself to a few different occasions...wedding, anniversary for sure.

I stamped it in Nightshift Blue. I love this classic color combination.... Sour Apple, Wild Cherry, Nightshift Blue and Kraft.

Another new stamp is the Gingham Background.

 

I stamped the Smooth White cardstock then die cut the heart at a diagonal to give it a non-traditional gingham look. Darling Dots was used to stamp the background strip. 

Well, that wraps up my card for today...   

We have six days left in this MFT June Release Countdown. All the new products will be available to purchase starting on June 10th at 10 pm Eastern time (7pm Pacific). During this countdown you can enter to win some AMAZING prizes over on the MFT blog.

Introducing: Together Forever

June is here... wow... it sure came fast! And I do believe that love is in the air for the MFT June Release! I have a great new sentiment set just for those romantic occasions.

Together Forever - A beautiful love based sentiment stamp set that features wonderful fonts and endearing words perfect for weddings, anniversary, engagements and so much more. What's also great about this set is that several of the sentiments will work for non-romantic occasions! 

 Now... a few cards featuring Together Forever!

My girls and I love watching Once Upon a Time together on our DVR... and that inspired this sentiment.

I embossed the sentiment in white to really make it pop on the Steel Grey cardstock.

The background is stamped with the new Romantic Script Background. I really love the suit here in Grout Gray. The gown detail is glittered to add some sparkle.

The inside features another Together Forever sentiment.

This Together Forever sentiment can be used for several occasions... wedding, anniversary, birthday and even graduation comes to mind. 
I glittered the bolder words for some shine. I really do love glitter!

I also stamped the new Pierced Fishtail Flax STAX with the new Romantic Script Background and also the Notebook Paper

The corner of the card front has a little detail I created using Peek-a-Boo Heart Frames and some glitter.

 The inside shows that same heart on the opposite color panel. 

 We have seven days left in this MFT June Release Countdown. All the new products will be available to purchase starting on June 10th at 10 pm Eastern time (7pm Pacific). During this countdown you can enter to win Wonderful prizes over on the MFT blog... where you will also find links to the other DT members that are sharing peeks using Together Forever!
