MFT February Release Countdown Day 5




Welcome to Day 5 of My Favorite Things February Release Countdown!

It's a new month featuring fresh new products: stamps, Die-namics, patterned
papers, card stock, inks, and much more! I'm sure you'll see a thing or two
that you'll just have to have.

Today I'm sharing Lisa Johnson's Whimsical Greetings, a cool window die,
and an early peek at some gorgeous blooms!


I created smaller 4 Bar notecards from Stone Gray card stock and die cut
the Rectangle Peek-a-Boo Window on the front. A small panel was die cut from
black card stock to fit behind the window. I white embossed the sentiment
then "smeared" some white pigment ink across to create a chalkboard effect.


To accommodate the sentiment on the second card, I folded the card in
landscape format, die cut the window, and created the chalkboard effect
after white embossing the sentiment. For both cards, I die cut some Large Desert 
Bouquet flowers, and leaves from the Leafy Greenery Die-namics and adhered
them to the card.

Be sure to visit today's countdown post at My Favorite Things to see what the
participating team members are sharing, and leave a comment there for your
chance to win a $75 gift voucher to the MFT Store!
