MFTeasers: Jolinne and Flappers

Good morning.  How are you enjoying this month's teasers?  Are you ready for the release?  It's coming up!

  • Check out Kim’s blog any time after 11AM EST each day to get the list of which Design Team members are also featuring these sets on their blogs today.
  • Join us for the release party on Wednesday, September 1th from 8-10 PM EST on the MFT Member Forum of SCS.
  • All new products go live Wednesday at 10 PM EST in the MFT Boutique
  • MFT Hop & Shop starts Wednesday at10 PM EST on Kim's blog
  • Check the MFT forum for the Guest Designer contest where YOU could WIN all of the stamps of next months release!

To start today off, I have our sweet little Jolinne cuddled up with her sweet little bear.  I stamped the image on MFT's Copic cardstock and colored it with Prismacolor pencils.  This paper is really useful when you want to cut your image out.  I used the small scalloped dienamic, crochet trim {currently out of stock}, and pink buttons.


I also wanted to do a little something different with the newest Flapper.  These darlings are so unique, I thought it would be appropriate to do something a little different.  I used white craft ink and embossing powder to stamp the image on kraft cardstock.  What do you think about this effect?  I did a few highlights with a Copic marker and added a few pearls to her dress.  I used the small scallop dienamic and some crochet trim to finish it off.


I've had so much fun preparing for this release!  I hope you have as much fun as I do going through all the blogs.  :)

Both cards are beautiful - just the outline of the stamp is striking on the 2nd card. I love the first card because it is just pure girliness!

So, so soft and sweet, Megan! And next year when Kim & Alma hit KC, I'll definitely swing by B-ville and pick you up. BTW, if we don't find a chance to get together sooner, mark your calendar for Nov. 6 -- my son has a soccer game up there at 1 that afternoon. Maybe I can head up a little earlier on my own and we can do lunch? Let me know, because it's getting positively ridiculous that we haven't met in person!
