MFT August 2019 Release and MFT & Friends




It's time! MFT's August Release is now available for purchase. All spankin' new
goodies can be found here in the MFT Store!



It's also time for MFT & Friends when the Creative Team--and friends--share more
ideas and inspiration using the new Release.

SQUIRREL!
Birdie Brown's squirrels are so adorable and fun to color, and I spent a few relaxing
hours coloring most of the images in the set.




Since I had a few extra images, I put them to use on a shadow box card. I used a You Tube
tutorial by Stephanie, based on a card by Torico.




I followed the video exactly as Stephanie explains, and stamped the outside of the box
with Whimsical Woodgrain. The background panel was ink distressed and spattered with
water and the inner "steps" were cut with grassy edges. 




After assembling the shadow box and adhering all the pieces, I finished off the box
with the white embossed sentiment



Did you know that these shadow boxes fold flat and fit into an A2 sized envelope?
Gotta love that!



All right, off you go to do some shopping! And today's the day to comment on all
participating Creative Team members' blogs by Thursday, August 8th for a chance
to win one of two $100 MFT gift vouchers! Thanks for stopping by during the Countdown
and Happy Shopping!
