Let's Shake it Up

Welcome to the first day of MFTeasers!  This month went by so fast, I can't believe it's already time for teasers, but I'm glad because of all the cute new products being released.  You're in a for a real treat!

Our sweet new Who's That Girl, Let's Grab Drinks, is ready for a night on the town.  I paper pieced her outfit and used my airbrush {are you noticing a trend?!} to shade the edges.  The reason I prefer using the airbrush rather than a distress ink is the color options.  I can match the patterned paper to whichever marker coordinates the best and voila!


Do you see that sentiment?  First, I used the new Circle STAX Die-namics to stamp the sentiment.  I layered that circle on a little Dizzy Doily that is a part of the Mini Doily Circles Die-namics.  Do you sense my excitement over these little doilies?!  I've been having so much fun with these little guys.


I also used the Skyline Border Die-namics to set the scene for this WTG.  This provided the perfect "cityscape" to achieve that.  The Little Open Scallop Border Die-namics also added a little detail to the back panel.


Here are the details about the upcoming release on April 3rd at 10 PM EST:
  • You can attend the New Release Party on April 3rd from 8-10 PM EST HERE in the MFT forum, where you can enjoy fun, games, and PRIZES!
