My Favorite Things and Xyron®

Once again, My Favorite Things is collaborating with Xyron® and design team
members from both companies are sharing projects using their products.

I'm a big fan of using tape runners on my projects and the Xyron® Mega
Runner is a awesome! I love the compact design and how comfortable it is to hold.
And to refill the runner is so easy: Remove the old cartridge and pop in the new.
No complicated threading or mess. Gotta love that!
 

For my project, I used the 1/4" tape runner and simply ran the adhesive
around the frame. I adhered the frame to a panel that was ink distressed
and cut with the rectangle element from Blueprints 25.

And see the sentiment? I used Xyron®'s 3" Sticker Maker and I was
pleasantly surprised at how well it worked.

I stacked several "hellos" for more dimension, and I even ran the second part
of the sentiment through the Sticker Maker since there was a bit of extra space
on the tape. And any stray adhesive comes off super easy with the Adhesive Eraser.
It's a tool that you'll always want to have on your desk.

MFT + Xyron®

This week there's a crafty collaboration between My Favorite Things and Xyron®
with project inspiration from both companies using MFT and Xyron® products.

The good folks at Xyron® generously allowed us to play with goodies of our choice.

I chose to use the Mega Runner, a compact "gun" type dispenser that's neat and tidy
 because it dispenses little dots of glue so there's no stringy mess. And Xyron®
managed to put 100 feet of adhesive into a dispenser that's comfy to hold, too.

Here's my project that put the Mega Runner to the test.

I stamped the Roses All Over Background on watercolor paper with Versamark,
and white embossed the design. The roses were ink distressed, then the panel
was die cut with the Zig Zag Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-namics.

After adhering the outer frame to a card base, the center panel was popped up
with fun foam and pieced into the frame. The Mega Runner handled the job beautifully
and securely. The hybrid sentiment was added and the card was finished off
with a few sequins.

A big plus with the Mega Runner are the refills, and there's no complicated
threading that you have to deal with. Just open the dispenser and pop in the refill.
Easy peasy so you can finish your projects quickly, too.
